Annihilation Conquest

[BrianWilly]

No blood-kin to mooch off of?

I have a roommate who I specifically keep around because she's a consumer ****e who's never home. That means I get free reign over the 48 inch LCD TV, the XBOX360, the Wii, etc....

 

[TheCorpulent1]

No blood-kin to mooch off of?

Too much pride for that.

 

[PhotoJones]

That must be where all of your pride goes to.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Pretty much. As long as I know I'm earning my own living, I have no other use for self-esteem.

 

[PhotoJones]

If I wasn't the exact same way, you'd have my pity.

 

[spectre]

Not sure if anybody saw this but this is the cover to issue six of Conquest. Looks bueno.

 

[PhotoJones]

Oh my God, that's awesome. Rocket made the cover.

Rocket

Yay for Starlord.

Why is Warlock not wearing his Black Adam costume?

 

[PhotoJones]

Because that one is better?

 

[RockSP]

Why is Warlock not wearing his Black Adam costume?

He wasn't wearing it on the cover to issue #3.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Ugh, why can't Adam just die and go away? I officially don't like him now.

 

[PhotoJones]

Because of a cover?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

No, just reviewing how much he's sucked over the crossover so far.

 

[PhotoJones]

Yeah, he's been pretty unlikeable so far. Hopefully he'll grow up and get back to his zen warrior mentality and ditch the emo crybaby one.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

He looks pretty angsty on that cover.

 

[PhotoJones]

If by "angsty" you mean "ultra badass" than I'll agree.

 

[Red]

Yay, Nova!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

If by "angsty" you mean "ultra badass" than I'll agree.

Nah, I meant *****ey. Everyone else on that cover looks more badass. Except maybe Ronan, who looks confused.

 

[PhotoJones]

Actually, you're right about everyone else looking badass. They do look badass. Even Wraith. And that's no easy feat.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Except Ronan, who's like, "Look, a pretty a star!"

 

[PhotoJones]

He looks like a mannish elderly woman.

That is a pretty cool cover, if not iconic. It is funny how the cover artist seems to be under no obligation to draw Adam Warlock's costume as is in the interiors. He used that suit for the #3 cover. Unless Warlock swaps wardrobe, that is. Nova is also there, does that mean he'll actually play some sort of role for the finale of AC after all? For much of the story he has seemed to be on the outskirts of it.

Yeah, it is cool that Rocket made the cover. Ronan's facial expression is a little awkward. Everyone else looks like they're lined up and marching for one of those final showdowns, and Ronan's thinking, "Crap, I think I forgot my hammer" or something.

Wraith does look cool, even if he's simply been a dues ex machina so far (he has the power to spread black energy that makes things fearful, even the Phalanx, so Ronan keeps asking him to blam it when it is the most needed).

 

[PhotoJones]

Of course Nova will come into play before the end. Peter has the cure for the transmode virus, and Rich is in desperate need of it. They pretty much have to cross paths at some point.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'm pretty sure DnA or solicitations or something said that Nova would be back for the climax of AC.
