    Default Is Annihilation ('05-'07) Worth Reading?

    I recently started reading though the general Marvel Universe with Civil War. I've read through that and World War Hulk. I read through X:Men: The Rise & Fall of the Shi'ar Empire. Now, Annihilation is next on the list. Is it worth reading? Is it good/enjoyable? Does it have (relatively) lasting consequences ?
    Always Forward. Forward Always.

    It is phenomenal. Consequences, sort of. That isn't the reason to read it. It is full-on cosmic crazy and utterly enjoyable from beginning to end. Far better than anything else you have mentioned IMO.

    Yes. That was a short period when marvel space was good before the gotg movies messed it up.

    almost all of the tie-ins are great, too, at least for the first one, especially drax and silver surfer.

    Annihilation was a great read and a great relaunch for Marvel Cosmic.

    I agree with everyone else. It was fantastic, as were the Nova and Guardians of the Galaxy series spinning out of it.
