The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

It's better if you have the deluxe one shot that has Thanos collecting the Gems. I think it was called Infinity Quest. It really should have been part of the trades and collections.

Ok, so I just got through Chapter 3 and am starting to dig it a bit more. The meeting between Eternity, the Watcher, and others was badass. Also, I love Thanos more and more as the series goes on. He's like Darkseid, but less cool and calculating.

You answered a question I had, prozacman. I think I was iffy on the first two issues because it all seemed like recap of something I hadn't read. Is Thanos' resurrection/search for the gems in Infinity Quest? Why isn't that collected in the Infinity Gauntlet trade then?

Also: I'll say that George Perez's compositions are fucking crazy in this. The full-page spread of the Warlock/Strange mindmeld was impressive. Not the greatest for logical story flow, but it looks awesome.

Thanos Quest.

Infinity Gauntlet happened right after I started reading comic books. I skipped it, because I had no interest in it. I was too new to the Marvel Universe to understand the importance of it or whatever. I recently bought the trade and tried to read it, but, like the OP, I was unimpressed and bored after the first two issues or however much I read. I'll give it another shot after reading all the comments saying it gets better.

B/c that trade would be huge, and you really don't need it b/c it IS all recapped for you. The resurrection takes place over several issues in The at-that-time-ongoing 80s Silver Surfer series (by Starlin and Lim at that time) over several issues and the search for the gems was in Thanos Quest. I think there actually is a separate trade that collects at least the Surfer stuff, but I can't remember the name and may be wrong.

It's Silver Surfer: Return of Thanos I believe.

I'm ticked that they didn't include the Thanos Quest in the hardcover re-release.

Rebirth of Thanos, actually. I just looked it up. Marvel recently (2010) re-released it as one of their Premiere Classic HCs, and according to Amazon, Chesscub, Thanos Quest is included in that.

Crap crackers. I've got to track that down now.

I'm starting to run out of bookshelf space again.

It is. I bought it in 2010.

I hadn't read the resurrection of Thanos before that and was always looking for a trade of Thanos Quest.

Great series with some pretty awesome character moments.

Just looked on eBay. The one direct market variant cover (which is what I've been getting on the Premiere Classics) is $70.

The Hulk/Wolverine conversation with Warlock was pretty great.

Quick question: what was happening in Hulk at this time? He seems to have his shit together significantly more than he ever did before.

Explain, friend Bender. I've only ever played the 3rd one.
