    That's exactly right. What I found interesting was that Surfer (in the not-too-distant-past-memory) seemed to be very sympathetic to the symbiotes - saying he was no threat to them. It continues the idea that although the symbiotes protect Knull, and Knull created them, that they are NOT evil or bad, but merely his innocent, living creations that he seems to show no love for, but on the other hand, they do anything to protect him. I think Venom has shown this past year that such devotion can CHANGE if a symbiote ends up bonding with other entities - but Cates has managed to make me feel bad for symbiotes! They are born innocent despite Knull's clear evil.

    Am I the only one that really, really, really now wants to know who that "other" God of apparent light in the old Thor story that fought Knull to a standstill is? It's like one of the biggest mysteries now after seeing Knull's weaknesses in this issue.

    Yeah, the golden gods from Thor need to get some backstory.

    I think Cates is saying that symbiotes are very easily influenced by their hosts. But they're also very loving and devoted creatures, it's just not entirely healthy.

    He seems a little off his A-Game right now, so it makes sense he might struggle.

    The second issue was interesting, but I feel like I missed a lot. Still, the art is a huge selling point for me here so I can just enjoy the ride.

    Norrin used a lot of energy surviving the fall through time and saving everyone, so him being off makes sense. Thor didn't defeat Knull, just broke his connection to the symbiotes, who very quickly trapped him within themselves and went to work creating a planet to hold him. I'm not sure you can kill Knull, just seal him away.

    Thor beat up Grendel, not Knull.

    This was Surfer that clearly wasn't at 100%. If we get a rematch where Surfer is at peak form, it should be a little more interesting.

    Thor beat the Grendel that Knull created. Venom also best that Grendel.
    The only one we have seen face Knull so far is Silver Surfer in this issue.

    This issue was beautiful. I’ve been waiting for years for this. Let’s hope the rest of the series lives up to the first.

    I hope that Norrin defeats Knull. I hate symbiotes.

    Aside from hating symbiotes, I fully concur with you. Knull is a despicable monster who only exists to destroy creation because he thinks creation is "intruding" on "his domain." Screw that guy. I hope Norrin ultimately beats several shades of hell out of him, but given the upcoming Absolute Carnage . . .
