Wouldn't he just invade and conquer from the moment he set down? I can only assume Lee had reasons for establishing him first as an invader who proceeded carefully; perhaps with this being his first planet (presumably), his full powers weren't yet to the point where he could move on a world more audaciously.<br /><br />(I wonder if his ship is still there, lying under all that scrap metal?

...A really cool arc, with some classic Buscema art.<br />I always liked the character of Aghatha Harkness and her cool head and wild weird witch-powers, which could bedevil Annihilus, intrude upon the Sanctum of the Watcher, and scare the bejeezus out of the Frightful Four. A great character!<br />Enjoying revisiting this story line again, and I won't give out any spoilers about who shows up next.<br />M.P.<br /><br />P.S.--Does anybody think that outfit the Overmind made for himself would keep people from noticing him?<br />Also, when attempting to conquer the universe, always start in a junkyard, I always say.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
