Thanos Rising #1

Ok folks Thanos is my Favorite character. Not villain, character and I was very excited about this book coming out. Even wore my Thanos shirt in anticipation. The story of a childhood Thanos coming to terms with his genetic mutation and social acceptance from his peers is in a word, unnecessary. The artwork is atrocious. Making Thanos look like a Transformer or like he has some kind of Phalanx like tech virus. The story reads well, but humanizing him just weakens his attraction imo. I think John E said it best, "Why can't a bad guy just be a bad guy". As much as it pains me to say this I give the story two thumbs down Jim Starlin is shaking his head.
