CosmicBookNews has more details as the coming issues out in space bring the Annihilators to Earth.

And, oh yeah, more ROCKET RACCOON AND GROOT!




Writers Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning offer a few details with some teasers.

"A desperate and vital mission brings the Annihilators to Earth, and what generates the conflict with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes is basically the clash of jurisdiction, and the incompatible interests of both teams; what’s good for Earth might not be good for the Galaxy—and vice versa!" said Abnett.


What, Maximum Security again?

Meanwhile, the important news (to us at scans_daily).


Regarding the new Rocket and Groot, Lanning offered up the following, “They get their own TV show and blow the flark out of stuff,” stated Lanning. “You know: the usual, but bigger and better and crazier!”



with Tan Eng Huat on art, this looks promising.

Ditto, a lot of people have been voicing their concern over this but personally I have faith that DnA will handle it well.

Yeah, if there's anyone I think could do it it's DnA.

There's no way the Avengers can take on the Annihilators, especially since the team is composed of people with power levels that rival those of Thor.

At the most the smart people like Tony and Reed will be able to get into their computers and cause shit but people like Luke cage or Wolverine won't do that much.

Also there is no way Thor and Bill will fight each other after the whole Surtur thing and them being BFF, no fricking way.

Thor, Ms. Marvel, and Dr. Strange can all operate on that level, so it wouldn't be an entirely unbalanced fight. Though I'm sure given writerly fiat Wolverine and Spider-Woman would have far more to do with any victory than the actual powerhouses.

Ms. Marvel would need to regain her Binary powers to operate on that level. And Dr. Strange's powers have been really nerfed ever since he joined the New Avengers.

You're probably right about Wolverine and Spider-Woman.

Ms Marvel has energy absorbtion abilities that allow her to reach her Binary levels, she just has to release it quickly. Meaning if the Silver Surfer hits her with the Power Cosmic, right back out it goes at Ronan.

She had the principal role in taking down Count Nefaria recently. If she's fighting an opponent that's throwing around a lot of energy (as the Surfer, Quasar, and Ronan tend to do), Carol can more than hold her own.

And now I'm sad again because it's most likely true....

I always wanted to see someone come to Earth and Put Reed Richards and Tony Stark on trial for starting the Annihilation war in the first place. It'd be DAMN cool....

I really don't under stand why they call themselves the Annihilators anyways. It's like a group of Nazi Hunters calling themselves the Hitlers.

...with Tan Eng Huat on art...

Oh god, pass.

I made the mistake of picking up the first three issues of Annihilators to get caught up on what Beta Ray Bill was up to lately, and the art was horrifying. Silver Surfer with earsand a vulture nose (looked like Mr. Burns with spray paint all over him), Bill with nostrils (looked like he had a pig's snout), Stormbreaker was drawn like a croquet mallet or something. DNA did a decent enough job, but Huat will never get my money again.

I'm willing to let the weird-looking uniforms slide. Artistic liberties and all that. But take two seconds and research the basic physical features of the main characters and we'll talk...

Seriously, what the fuck is that?
