Summary

A new Annihilation event threatens the cosmos， and the consequences will be grave for the Guardians of the Galaxy， S。W。O。R。D。 and the royal couple of the united Kree/Skrull Empire， Hulkling and Wiccan！ Five different planets have simultaneously come under threat， and this foe may be too big for even the new Guardians to handle。 So it’s a good thing that Cable is back…locked， loaded and ready to steal the ultimate weapon from the deadliest planet in X-history！ Meanwhile， the Black Panther enlists the aid of the Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda — and the legendary M’Baku！ But what game is Doctor Doom playing？ The war to end all wars is here…and not everyone is going to come home。

It's sorta ballsy to name your big cosmic space crossover after the Annihilation event at marvel， but after Scourge kinda was a letdown I guess we could only go up。 A small thing that bothered me was while the Guardians issues formed the backbone of the actual story， not all the tie ins felt justified or needed， even if they could be fun。 Cable reloaded was just Ewing doing a tribute to 90s X-Force with some modern takes， and the Wakanda one shot was a good flex for the empire itself， helped by It's sorta ballsy to name your big cosmic space crossover after the Annihilation event at marvel， but after Scourge kinda was a letdown I guess we could only go up。 A small thing that bothered me was while the Guardians issues formed the backbone of the actual story， not all the tie ins felt justified or needed， even if they could be fun。 Cable reloaded was just Ewing doing a tribute to 90s X-Force with some modern takes， and the Wakanda one shot was a good flex for the empire itself， helped by the fact Manifold was involved， even if it didn't have a large barring on the overall plot。 The Wiccan and Hulking one shot was fine at best， almost playing tired story beats， it's skipable。 The SWORD tie in is fun for Doom and Storm's caddiness to one another， and to see Brand really scheming as she is known for。At the end of the day this event is really just a lot of strong defense， seeing as Dormmammu never completely archives his plan， but it's fine on its own。 Some tie ins bring it down overall， but still Ewing writes it well。 。。。more

Most of what's collected here is taken from the final volumes of Al Ewing's Guardians Of The Galaxy and SWORD runs， but having them all in one place and in the right order is nice。 Annihilation seems to just be the catch-all term for 'big space event' these days， and the scope of the story definitely fits that。 War is waging across the galaxy， and it takes the Guardians， Doctor Doom， and more from all across the universe to stop an unexpected threat。 There's definitely a sense that there was mor Most of what's collected here is taken from the final volumes of Al Ewing's Guardians Of The Galaxy and SWORD runs， but having them all in one place and in the right order is nice。 Annihilation seems to just be the catch-all term for 'big space event' these days， and the scope of the story definitely fits that。 War is waging across the galaxy， and it takes the Guardians， Doctor Doom， and more from all across the universe to stop an unexpected threat。 There's definitely a sense that there was more to the story to be told， since it all kind of just ends abruptly， but hopefully these points will get picked up （probably by Ewing， since he's good like that） somewhere else。Also included are the two one-shots that haven't been collected elsewhere， a Wiccan & Hulkling story that just makes me want them to have a new ongoing even more than I already did， and a Black Panther one that continues to make the Intergalactic Empire Of Wakanda a thing， which I thought was going to fade from existence once Ta-Nehisi Coates' run on the title ended and yet continues to persist， for better or worse。If you don't already have Guardians Volume 3 or SWORD Volume 2， you'll get a kick out of this。 If you do， then this one's probably just for stupid completionists like me who wanted to have the one-shots collected。 。。。more

Yet another cosmic invasion， this one by Dormammu。 Oodles and oodles of fighting Mindless Ones。 Just like a lot of this crossover。。。mindless。 It actually starts off pretty good。 The tail end of it though got pretty monotonous。 A meh finish for a good Guardians of the Galaxy run。

Really fun event！ And some very sweet and funny moments throughout， especially in the Cable: Reloaded one-shot。 I enjoyed that one immensely。 But everything was really good。 The two less-relevant tie-ins were still exciting and meaningful and the rest of the books were great and resolved some final foreshadowing from Empyre nicely。

Oh， so this is getting a collection after all， just weirdly delayed。 Yanking the relevant section from my review of Guardians volume 3:Then， alas， the mystery of what's happened to Ego， the Living Planet is solved and - spoilers！ - he's been possessed by Dormammu， unleashing a wave of space Mindless Ones as part of a mini-crossover called The Last Annihilation – whose title I really wish were a binding promise。 Mindless Ones have always been， as the name suggests， pretty tedious adversaries。 And Oh， so this is getting a collection after all， just weirdly delayed。 Yanking the relevant section from my review of Guardians volume 3:Then， alas， the mystery of what's happened to Ego， the Living Planet is solved and - spoilers！ - he's been possessed by Dormammu， unleashing a wave of space Mindless Ones as part of a mini-crossover called The Last Annihilation – whose title I really wish were a binding promise。 Mindless Ones have always been， as the name suggests， pretty tedious adversaries。 And coming on the tail of however many other Annihilations there were with hordes of mindless space bastards attacking Marvel space， plus plant-twats and symbiote nonsense doing the same within the past year。。。can we just stop now？ Maybe space really is full of hegemonising swarm entities， but as main threats in stories they're very， very dull。 Mercifully， they get shunted off centre stage after an issue or two， making way for all the far more interesting character stuff， not least Al getting to cut loose and write Doctor Doom at his most spectacularly hubristic。 But lots of that was in one-shots whose ultimate destination， in terms of collected editions， is currently unclear。 Hell， this book doesn't even seem to contain the very much Guardians-badged annual explaining the origin of the Prince of Power – no， not that one – which turns out to be a gloriously stupid He-Man riff （"He found himself searching for answers from the wizard Answeros， in his secret Cave of Answers on the legendary Mount Answeros"） turning on how easily an Infinity Stone might be mistaken for a jellybean。 Certainly they're not going to be in Volume 4 because there isn't one; after 12 issues of scene-setting， there were only these 6 more， and then cancellation。 I don't know what went on there， or whether Al will get to pick up again for the inevitable relaunch circa the next film， but right now this doesn't feel like it went to plan at all。 。。。more

A decent， forgetable story。 Some good issues。 Wrapped up too nice and neatly。 And what seemed like an abrupt end to Ewing's Guardians of the Galaxy run。 A decent， forgetable story。 Some good issues。 Wrapped up too nice and neatly。 And what seemed like an abrupt end to Ewing's Guardians of the Galaxy run。 。。。more
