About this Collection

This concluding volume of the Annihilation saga collects the final issues of the crossover event that reshaped Marvel's cosmic landscape. Featuring the likes of Paibok, Terrax the Tamer, and Tyros, the story follows the united front of heroes and villains as they mount a desperate last stand against the Annihilation Wave's devastating advance. The collection wraps up the epic conflict that would set the stage for the modern era of Marvel's cosmic adventures.

In "Blood and Thunder," Nova and Starlord command a desperate coalition of worlds in a last stand against Annihilus' relentless assault, pushing their forces to the brink. When they capture one of Annihilus' generals, the shocking revelation comes: Galactus is dead—and the tyrant is now allied with Thanos. Written by Keith Giffen and illustrated with bold precision by Andrea DiVito, with vibrant colors by Laura Villari and sharp lettering by Cory Petit, this pivotal issue ramps up the cosmic stakes. The cover by Gabriele Dell'Otto captures the fury of the battle in dramatic detail.
