These days one can log in any comic book discussion board and all they’d see is whining. Whining from comic book fans about each and every comic book.

And there is [...]

Alright folks, first things first – The Black Panther having a anti-Galactus plan? Cool. Reed Richards having an anti-Galactus suit?
…well, I’m sure Mark Millar thinks it’s pretty cool…and that’s…the important thing…right?
