    Cosmo is good dog, Da?

    It´s admirable the things Peter "Starlord" Quill achieved in his run with the Guardians of the Galaxy and in his death it is very comforting and reassuring that his dream will live on. Focusing the narrative in Cosmo was awesome, since he´s such a great character: a telepath dog from Russia and an astronaut, running a space station (that is a Celestial´s head), makes me laugh with his dialogues and his simplicity: he´s a loyall dog. And that´s why Peter chose him to go on with the Guardians of the Galaxy mission, but in a new outfit, with new set: bring now the heavy hitters and the big guns of the cosmic universe!! This issue was more about laying ground for the incoming "Annihilators" and the tone for this story was very good: facing the threat of Blastaar was the "ignition" or the perfect timing for Cosmo to gather the new members of cosmic defenders and seed the idea of this new team. DnA continue with the great dialogues and Miguel Sepulveda (now with the colors of Rain Beredo) puts a new dimension  for this cosmic adventure (I think it´s the best work of him). This book is higly recommended (as Thanos Imperative is) and now let´s see with Tang En Huat can live up to the stakes they´re putting on him.

      As the galaxy still recovers from war with the Cancerverse, Cosmo assembles a team of cosmic heavy hitters to quash the new threat of Blastaar.  The Good This whole issue being narrated by Cosmo's swarthy brand of Russian accent made it twice as enjoyable as would've been otherwise. Not only is just plain funny to "hear" this mutt talking about such heady cosmology, it also added a much needed humorous contrast to balance all the somber galactic drama without tipping everything over into parody...

      Disappointment Would Be A More Accurate Title For This 0

      The aftermath issue for the Thanos Imperative event hits and proves to be a passable issue that really only shows how little momentum is left in Marve's cosmic franchise, assembling the upcoming Annihilators team in a completely mechanical fashion and doing nothing else.  Cosmo is our lead character in this issue and is easily the best thing about it. Cosmo is a consistently entertaining character and possibly the best thing DnA came up with in their run on Marvel's cosmic franchise. It is a bri...
