I must say that I just finished reading the first six issues of Thanos and I liked it a lot. I've always liked him (he's one of my favorite villians) so I was a bit aprehensive about him possibly going hero. But Starlin did write and draw a good run of six issues. I'm not sure however, how long it will last having Thanos as a good guy.

I'm also a huge Galactus fan, and I was a little disapointed on having the big G humbled a little, but if it had to be done, let it be done by the Titan. Moreover, I enjoyed knowing more about Galactus, and Starlin did a good job with giving the character more of a soul. It was just a good read.

One thing that I am upset about however is that I guess Marvel ticked offed Starlin so he won't be continuing the book, which is really bad because Starlin is Mr. Cosmic when it comes to Marvel's cosmic stories.

I thought the first 6 issues kicked @$$. I'm curious to see how Giffen does writing the series.

And now you know.

Too bad it didn't last tho. Thanos is a good bad guy..... or a bad good guy... I just hope if/when he shows up again, the writter will be able to make it a really good story.
Last guy left out how Thanos met the Beyonder (Thanos was dead, at th time, if I recall and the Beyonder went thru Death's realm at some point, I just can't remember which issue, but I'm sure it was as Kismet in an FF annual).
