    Yeah, Ronan was awesome. Not many characters have kicked the ass of a Herald-level character like he did with Ravenous.

    That said, I am already predicting that they (and by "they" I mean "Adam Warlock") will use the M'Krann Crystal to end WoK (badly for Vulcan, because he is the bad guy after all) and close all the times/space fissures. My only question now is whether Rachel joins GoG afterwards or Jean Grey returns.
    It's interesting that your putting vulcan into the role of "bad guy"; Both BB and vulcan are doushes in my oppinion.

    Black Bolt can do no wrong. This makes your opinion void.

    I don't know man, I like him these days. It takes a special kind of character to use insanity and a technicality in the law to become supreme ruler of the largest space empire in existence.

    Lest we forget, BB has ~thus far~ chosen to massacre a fleeing enemy that posed minimal short term or long term threat invaded Shi'ar territory and destroyed 3 of there military vessels. Afterward, BB invaded the Kree empire for seemingly no reason and annexed it.

    I stand by my oppinion: black bolt is a dick.

    All of the space empires as a whole seem to be made up of dicks. The Shi'ar are whatever their leader is, and I get the impression that Lilandra was an exception in a long line of assholes. There doesn't really seem to be a side to root for as the good guys.


    Also, I kind of like Vulcan because he seems a lot like Superboy Prime, except he's not a complete failure at existence.

    You can't say that they didn't pose a threat. There are Skrulls out there, they captured him and fucked his wife, he gets to be a little pissed and yell "Goodbye!" quite literally.

    He didn't really annex the Kree Empire for lack of a reason. Ronan didn't want to lead. That much was obvious.

    The Shi'ar knew better.

    As for the Skrulls, fuck them. I fully endorse the Inhumans' counteroffensive.

    But it is funny how Vance has been saying "the Badoon are being ignored" because they are, until the end of WoK when they're all that's left with no one to stop them. And it's not like others don't know they are awful creatures because it's pretty clear cut that no one liked them in the Nova Corps Files from Annihilation.

    Black Bolt didn't take over the Kree for no reason. He took over the Kree because he was tired of the Inhumans being victimized and treated like garbage by pretty much everybody despite their life of reclusive non-interference, and now wants to turn them into a true power. Since the Kree were responsible for creating them, he decided to conquer them and make the Inhumans into the ruling class of a galatic empire. Now anyone who threatens the Inhumans is going to pay dearly for it.

    Bullshit. The Shiar responded to a large, hostile warship of unknown origin and intent crossing into there territory. No attempt at communication was made on his part. He fired the first (and only shot) as I recall.

    I really hope the inhuman royal family eats it for this.

    I find the character to be incredibly bland; Every concievable fight against a foe who doesn't have a deus ex power of there own (magic, the power cosmic, telepathy, ect.) will ultimatley result in BB ending the fight by whispering somthing to them and blasting them to kingdom come. Hell, I've seen all of 4 facial expressions from him in the various comics he's appeared in.
    I'm siding with the Inhumans because I never really cared for the Shi'ar.
    I never particularly liked either of them.. Which Is why I'm throwing my support behing the group that appears to have the least number of stupid deus ex's: Starlord and the rest of the guardians.

    They look like the used to as far as I can remember, so you should be asking that in reverse.

    So Nova 22:
    Worldmind is mind controlling the Nova Corps to make them more compliant.

    And Richard Rider is apparently going to die. The Nova force changed him at the molecular level so he could contain it. Now its gone and his body is fucked.

    So i'm assuming the whole "my body is degrading" is his reason for merging with Quasar.

    As to Galactus going looking for his herald: he doesn't have to. he already has stardust waiting in the wings, and dust is far more loyal to galactus then norrin rad ever was.

    As to the Skaar WoK tie in, are there details about that one?
