Format:Hardcover
This story has both got all the trademarks of a classic cosmic Marvel epic, but is at the same time modern in both picture and story. All the best galactic characters are there, and some new introductions as well. An amazing epic shared by a big bunch of great writers through five decades now, from the first time we saw Galactus and Thanos till now! It's done with respect to the existing (but rapidly changing) Marvel Universe, but I stiull can't give it 5 stars, as I would some of the Starlin Masterworks.

Format:Paperback
This volume reprints Marvel Comics' The Thanos Imperative: Ignition, The Thanos Imperative issues #1-6, and The Thanos Imperative: Devastation. This volume appears to follow on from Guardians of the Galaxy: Realm of Kings (which I haven't read). There is a `Fault' in space which is an opening to another universe, which naturally enough is bent on conquering this one. Thanos has been revived yet again in order to deal with this threat. The other universe is peopled by parallells of charcters in ours, and is controlled by their Captain Marvel, as a puppet of some sort of Lovcraftian beings. There are many battles, plots and counter-plots, as all the cosmic characters and space empires are called up to deal with the problem, while Thanos is sneaked over the border as a doomsday weapon. Although the threat is dealt with, we do get a cliffhanger ending for some of the main characters.
This is an excellent volume, with great art and story, and is a worthy addition to Marvel's ongoing cosmic serial/series.

Thanos, Galactus, The Inhumans, The Silver Surfer and many more great Marvel characters are all present in 'The Thanos Imperative'. I will not put any spoilers in this review but this comic is written and drawn just the way I like it ..... dark, moody, exciting and a deep story to boot. Thanos has always been one of the more fascinating characters in the Marvel universe and this graphic-novel adds to his mystique. There are also many other characters that I am not familiar with, such as Nova (as after a 25 year break I have only just rediscovered the joys of reading Marvel), but that didnt spoil my fun.

This is a great story with excellent art. I felt like an 8 year old reading ROM for the first time. I was in awe.
