Pointless

Ekenedilichukwu Ikegwuani ，

this one felt a little less focused and more ridiculous。 decent storytelling， but at this point， the infinity trilogy just drags on until it finally ends

Dom Hung ，

Wrap up to the Infinity saga。。。first book by far the strongest， this one was ok but very confusing too

Infinity Crusade caps off Adam Warlock's trippy consequences from Infinity Gauntlet with a gigantic brawl between Earth's mightiest heroes， led by the good half of Warlock expelled when he wore the gauntlet， and Earth's backup heroes， strung along by Thanos in a strange attempt to save the universe （again）。 Things start off with the Goddess collecting cosmic containment cubes - which the Magus used a few of in Infinity War to just about destroy reality - from various realities in order to brainw Infinity Crusade caps off Adam Warlock's trippy consequences from Infinity Gauntlet with a gigantic brawl between Earth's mightiest heroes， led by the good half of Warlock expelled when he wore the gauntlet， and Earth's backup heroes， strung along by Thanos in a strange attempt to save the universe （again）。 Things start off with the Goddess collecting cosmic containment cubes - which the Magus used a few of in Infinity War to just about destroy reality - from various realities in order to brainwash everyone in the universe into helping her enact the rapture。 Naturally， a bunch of vaguely religious or spiritually-inclined heroes get dragged into the brainwashing with the rest of the universe and go to an artificial planet to protect the Goddess while she does her thing。Set against such heroes as Doctor Strange， Thor， and the Silver Surfer are basically all the weaker heroes plus Hulk and Drax。 The odds are stacked against them， but they're pretty sure there's something fishy going on with the whole brainwashing-the-entire-universe thing so they set out to stop the Goddess。 Thanos and Warlock， as usual， conscript them into an actual functional plan as cannon fodder and do their own thing to actually save the day while all our favourite heroes bumble around until the universe is saved。The plot of Crusade pretty much proceeds along the same path as War did， except since the heroes are fighting their friends the stakes are a bit higher。 On top of that， Thanos and Warlock are basically powerless before the Goddess and have to rely on a plan that carefully threads the needle to usurp her power at just the right moment to save reality。 With the odds stacked so heavily against the good guys， I hope I'll be forgiven for actually wondering if they were going to succeed。 Starlin does a great job of showing just how dangerous the situation is。Like the rest of the Infinity Saga， the stars of the show are really Warlock and Thanos。 Seeing Warlock brooding over how both the Magus and the Goddess， born from his evil and good emotions， respectively， continually put the universe at risk is pretty interesting。 He keeps saving the universe， but his extreme emotions are the ones that try to end it。 The dynamic isn't exactly original， but interesting for such a powerful character who used to be an almost literal god。Thanos， much like his appearance in Infinity War， seems to have settled into this universe。 He acts out of selfishness， wanting to preserve the reality he lives in， but in doing so he continually works to save the universe。 There are quite a few interesting exchanges where Thanos shows himself to be developing into something of a hero， and actually makes impractical decisions because it's the morally right choice。 At this point I really prefer comic Thanos over MCU Thanos; he's developed far beyond being the Mad Titan hell-bent on conquering the universe and fucking Death。 He has an idea of what's important to him， what he wants to do， and in working to protect these things he's developing into something like a hero。 It's certainly not unheard of for a villain to develop into a good guy， but the path Starlin took here was a good one。There's a lot of good stuff mixed into this volume， and while a lot of the main plot beats are rehashed from Infinity War the way the characters have changed since then keeps the book from getting stale。 If you're interested in this series， I definitely don't see a good reason to pass over Crusade。 。。。more

El mejor ejemplo de lo que pasa si estiras una idea demasiado tiempo。Es aburrido。 El dibujo no llama la atención， es tan genérico que acabas sabiendo quien es cada personaje por su ropa， y si hay más de tres en una viñeta olvídate de expresiones faciales。 La historia se hace aburrida， no avanza hasta el último número donde de repente sucede todo en un instante y se acaba resolviendo todo de una forma muy extraña。 Los tie-ins podrían desarrollar los pensamientos de algunos personajes， pero se ded El mejor ejemplo de lo que pasa si estiras una idea demasiado tiempo。Es aburrido。 El dibujo no llama la atención， es tan genérico que acabas sabiendo quien es cada personaje por su ropa， y si hay más de tres en una viñeta olvídate de expresiones faciales。 La historia se hace aburrida， no avanza hasta el último número donde de repente sucede todo en un instante y se acaba resolviendo todo de una forma muy extraña。 Los tie-ins podrían desarrollar los pensamientos de algunos personajes， pero se dedican a hacer historias de relleno que bien podrías saltarte y seguir la historia perfectamente。 。。。more

Crazy， trippy cosmic Marvel weirdness about Adam Warlock's good half （not his bad half; that was Magus in Infinity War） trying to purge the universe of sin。 The artwork was just okay （this was 1993） and the story was pretty meh。 There were five comic books in this series。 I do like Adam Warlock， but Marvel post 2000 or so is just so much better to look at。 This wasn't bad， it just wasn't that good。 And after Infinity。。。hard to beat。For the sake of posterity， I just saw The Avengers: Infinity War Crazy， trippy cosmic Marvel weirdness about Adam Warlock's good half （not his bad half; that was Magus in Infinity War） trying to purge the universe of sin。 The artwork was just okay （this was 1993） and the story was pretty meh。 There were five comic books in this series。 I do like Adam Warlock， but Marvel post 2000 or so is just so much better to look at。 This wasn't bad， it just wasn't that good。 And after Infinity。。。hard to beat。For the sake of posterity， I just saw The Avengers: Infinity War last night （28 April 2018）。 Incredibly movie。 Thanos--who plays a big part in this series--was a remarkable character in the film。 He was melancholy。 He brooded a bit。 He was as inevitable as a tidal wave。 Ruthless。 Supremely confident。 Calm; you never saw him get angry （with one exception）。 Remarkable portrayal by Josh Brolin， and a remarkably well-developed villain。 Part of why Marvel trounces DC is because Marvel's villains are so layered and multifaceted: Vulture in the most recent Spiderman movie。 Killmonger in Black Panther， and now Thanos the Mad Titan。 With the exception of the Joker in The Dark Knight I can't think of a single bad guy who was interesting。 Maybe General Zod in Man of Steel。 。。。more

Pedro ，

A pesar de que la saga Infinity es repetitiva y un poco confusa， Crusade es my capitulo favorito。 Lo que me gusta de esta historia es el dilema moral que enfrentan los héroes: es una identidad que busca erradicar el mal， nuestra enemiga？ Toda la filosofía que se deriva de las posiciones de los personajes involucrados da para mucho。 Lo que falla de toda esta saga es la cantidad de personajes y sublíneas de tramas， que a veces no se entiende cual es al aporte a la historia central。

Steve Magay ，

Pretty much used the same plot from the infinity gauntlet and war。 Though it's a recycled plot， it's enjoyable with Thanos on the good side。 Love the ending， tricking the bad guy to believe she's winning。 However Adam Warlock's character and how he always saves the day is tiring。 Pretty much used the same plot from the infinity gauntlet and war。 Though it's a recycled plot， it's enjoyable with Thanos on the good side。 Love the ending， tricking the bad guy to believe she's winning。 However Adam Warlock's character and how he always saves the day is tiring。 。。。more

The Marvel Infinity saga gets increasingly worse。 The Infinity Gauntlet was ok， but this one is just a hot mess of confusing storylines。
