And yeah, things have been uneven since. The art has made surges in quality, the writing has been up and down. I will say that I'm really enjoying the new Thanos and Gamora books that are out right now, and both showcase some of the best art I've seen in cosmic Marvel.
Some of my favorite stories are the ones that explore the compulsively inquisitive and self-serving side of Thanos. So few writers at Marvel seem to understand him, utilizing him instead as a cliched villain plot device.
But he's much deeper than some generic space warlord, he's a meticulous monster. He killed half a galaxy for a woman's love, and I think that's something every man can identify with.

Fully agree on both parts. One of the best Thanos related stories I ever read was the mini where he is on a sort of pilgrimage. I forget the exact title but it takes place around the time of the Annihilators mini.

I also hope Wendell Vaughn is a surprise inclusion. Sorry to those of you calling for Phyla-Vell. I want her too, but not as Captain Marvel or as Quasar...she's always deserved her own identity, which she got in the form of Martyr.

Also, bucking the trend on the thread, I'm all in on the upcoming GotG wave. I admit that, collectively, this ain't the greatest looking wave. However, my comic canon investments look much better than those MCU offerings...so, I'm good. I also wasn't very impressed by that Select GotG wave and anyone thinking to add Gamora, may want wait. If armored Gamora received the 'Select' treatment, then a 'Legends' birth is all but assured...maybe even a Toy Fair announcement?

Here's hoping for a Wendell in 6" using the same suit as the 3.75". I will take Phyla in any guise I can get. If it means Wendell as Quasar then Phyla as Martyr would be awesome. It gave her an interesting darker side. I would also love an armored version of Starhawk from that same era.
