This is the checklist/reading order they've been printing in the back of each issue.



I think all the stuff on this list is necessary, but I'm not sure how it would read if you just did Infinity 1-6. There are several tie-ins not on this list, you can safely skip those.

I have some of the offshoots because I have subscriptions to Avengers and New Avengers so they are involved. I am way behind but I will say this: if Thanos is involved, it's probably pretty good.

Im trying to get my hands on it now.

Gonna be the first comics Ive read in years.

The Thanos initiative is the last story I really got into.

In other news. Guardians of the galaxy is shaping up to be an awesome movie.

Del Toro is actually going to be the collector, who is one of the guys who Thanos took one of the Infinity Gems from.

........Awsome.

They are being insanely ambitious with the plotline so I am curious how it will turn out. The overarching goal of the movie will probably be to introduce Thanos as the villain for Avengers 3. You have Ronan the Accuser and Nebula as the two main villains, which could be very good. You also have The Collector's role. And you have the Nova Corps involved as well, which is a world in and of itself.

Oh yeah, and Rocket ****ing Raccoon.

Yeah, Thor would annihilate Superman because of that vulnerability to magic - unless, of course, the plotline and popularity required Superman to win, which it did in the Marvel-DC crossover from years back. Thor, however, did literally blow a hammer-shaped hole in the chest of Hyperion, Superman's Marvel equivalent. So, there's that.

Thor is also a better character, but that might be me being a liiiiiiiitle subjective.

Always depends on the writer.

At one point (inner homer here) the Hulk's ability to grow stronger/adapt due to anger overcame the rigors of space and and ruined the best Marvel had to offer before he asked to be stopped.

It's why the character of the Hulk is more relatable.

No one wants to be Superman. No one wants all that power and all that responsibility. No one wants the burden of all that morality all the time.

The Hulk is Banner's "excuse." He get's to hide behind that and pretend it's never really "him" or what "he wants."

The Hulk is just what Superman would do if he ever let himself go...

All roads lead to Thanos.
Nebula, Drax, Gamora, the Collector.
I really dont know how you can introduce this side of the galaxy without being ambitious.

Looking at all these names and thinking about Galactus and the Surfur just burns me up.
How big of a ****up was it to sell those rights with the FFour?

Just a name to think about considering the IG plotline:
Warlock?
Never really liked him much, but Marvel sucked his dick for decades. Closest character to Thanos, and biggest protagonist of that era in Galactic affairs.
Strange that not a word of him has been mentioned. He is tied to every character in the Guardians universe, and may have been the biggest character in it, other than Thanos himself.

Assuming The Inhumans gets made before Avengers 3, you have a ton of options. It can be a full out battle royale in that movie if you include the core Avengers with pieces from the Guardians, Nova Corps and Inhumans (Black Bolt). Obviously you have Thanos as the villain but you also have villains like Annihilus and the Phalanx as well to draw from. It sucks that Galactus can't be involved yet but maybe Marvel will work some magic.

My guess would be buying time and hoping to make enough $$$ to buy character rights.

A2 being about Ultron screams "wanted IG but had to settle for the big crossover of the year and hope it's big enough to still be relevant 2 years from now."

Weak.
