079 - Annihilation: Conquest
Some of My Friends Read Comics - A podcast by Some of My Friends Read Comics
Time to head back to outer space! After the events of Annihilation, Marvel’s reinvigorated galactic universe gets taken over by robots. Sequel time! Annihilation: Conquest brings back Nova, Quasar, Moondragon, Star-Lord and a whole slew of outer space favorites. Rocket and Groot make their modern debuts too. We say modern because Groot’s 1st appearance was back in Tales to Astonish #13 from 1960. But he was a little… different. If there’s one thing you can count on, it’s that trees will always be popular in comic books. Next Time: Action Comics #1000, Crisis on Infinite Earths #1, Free Comic Book Day 2018 selections!
