What a pace. Episode 1500 around the corner. I can still remember the 2-digit era.

Thanks in advance for this one.

I think you do need to read Hickman's Avengers books if you're reading Infinity...ok, maybe not need but you really, really should. They are actual chapters to the story that are barely recapped in the main book. Thanos and his forces are in space in the first issue and by the start of the second they've already conquered most of earth. I guess you don't need to know the details but it's a pretty big jump in story between issues. Personally this is the first event I've read where I feel like I have to read more than the main title.

The Crazy Ones is a blast. It's tough to beat Robin Williams..happy to see him on TV again.

:) Thanks for the kind words fellas!

And I don't think Blackbolt told the Illuminati what he was up to...I don't think they're going to be too happy with him though.

Not all of it but he did reveal what Thanos wanted
