Annihilation: Conquest, Book One by Mike Perkins, Timothy Green II, Christos Gage, Dan Abnett, Keith Giffen, Andy Lanning, Mike Lilly
4.0
Bad: No Drax.
Good: Rocket Raccoon!
The initial Annihilation series was petering out at the end, but this storyline has perked back up again. I have very little knowledge of the Marvel Universe, but most of the characters make sense with no background. I can't even tell which ones are pre-existing and which were made up for the series. The villains and their motivations are still pretty vague, but that could change. And Dirty Dozen type plotlines are always fun.
