Infinity Gauntlet for $16.49 currently at Amazon
One of the true classic events in the Marvel universe, and also one of my favourites.
This is the event that Thanos is known best for. It starts off with him having acquired all of the Infinity Gems and realizing what power he has over, well, everything. Despite this, his one true love, Death, does not love him. If anything, she seems to have contempt for him. He realizes that this must be due to not having accomplished his previous promise, the death of half of the life in the universe. A mere snap of the fingers later and this is accomplished.
Of course, the remaining heroes aren’t about to let this slide. They team up and they bring in all the cosmic forces of the universe to have a grand battle with Thanos.
It’s a fantastic series. Thanos has some amazing character development, you get to see all the heavy hitters of the Marvel universe slugging it out, including all of the cosmic level powers. Despite it being a 90s comic, it’s a complete homerun of an event. This series has the most iconic images of Thanos and the character development is fantastic, especially the unexpected ending.
5/5. For such a short read, it manages to be a great cosmic event.
