Just finished reading it and as far as I can tell Monarch here is right, some kind of overlap space, which would explain why the IG worked, but it's power was not absolute in the way it was when Thanos used to wield it. Killing the gems doesn't leave the Illuminati with many big guns to fire so Hickman's gonna have to get very creative from here on out. The next issue teased at Galactus coming into play, I love big G but don't see how he can succeed where the Gems failed. Great stuff so far though, can't wait for the next issue.
