We're not afraid to Die
Infinity has been building itself up from so long and Hickman has put a lot of efforts to make a good memorable event.And in this issue things seem to be really going on.I wasn's a big fan of the prologues so far and the whole build up even though I wanted to like the event because of the Thanos involvement.So far he doesn't seem to appear that much even though his part of this event is probably the biggest of them all and the one that I care the most.
The Inhumans part of the issue was probably my most favorite because of the cliffhanger in the end and the whole storytelling of Hickman.He likes to do big stuff with big characters and this event and the story is all of that.We have a lot of heroes and a lot of big cosmic story building itself up with each issue more and more until the breaking point when it will conclude and we will see the grand finale.I like Hickman's work but this event just doesn't click for me.The whole things just seems to big and it isn't easy to follow for me at all.Right when you get what's going on and you want to see what is next and you jump to another story that breaks everything up for you.
The Thanos problem is something that the Illuminati will have to deal with and that is something I want to see.Since I read the Infinity Gauntlet I got really interested into Thanos and so far his every other appearance in the modern has sucked a lot for me.So far he looks really good and in character for me so the whole deal with him is really interesting to follow.As for the Builders part and the Avengers that is the thing where most of the action and big things happen but I just don't care for it and it is boring.Since the start of the Avengers titles Hickman couldn't make me care for the team and I don't care for them now either.
The artwork is really great and it just clicks with the story.It does change from an artist to an artist but it feels and it looks great.Last issue's art duties were handled by Jim Cheung who is a great talent for me but I just didn't feel like he is the best choice for this event.Opena seems better and I would like to see only his style from now on till the end of the whole event.
The Marvel event doesn't look that bad so far but it still doesn't work quite that much for me.Things are improving and I am digging what I am reading but things still need improvement.Hickman has four issues more to go and I hope that until the end things will be even better and in the end I might even give a five star rating but I doubt it.\
Rating:3.5/5
