When I first saw the Celestials, I thought they were these awesome space god superheroes.

And then they all turned out to be space scientist cuntbags.

Tell me when they get to Odin's X origin.

At least for me Leon is one of the best artists that ever agraciated the medium. I even made a poster of the Earth X Marvel Monsters spread.

Sadly it seems he doesn't get much work. I can't believe he never worked on Daredevil. It would be a perfect fit.

Another underappreciated artist is Bill Reinhold, the inker.

All 3 series do that.

kingdom come was better
no bump from me

>>83338427
>Having this much shit taste

Kingdom Come was nostalgia wanking from Mark "Silver Age Or Bust" Waid

Earth X was a cohesion of decades of the cosmic mythology Jack Kirby crafted.

I love this comic OP
bump from me

Universe and paradise when

Universe is still interesting, I think. Has my favorite comic book death in it as well. Paradise is a bit half baked.

Poor Watchers kinda got the shaft though. And it does make you wonder how old the Celestials are compared to Galactus, who apparently survived the last universe. Not to mention why everyone looks humanoid.

Hold up, is Timely/Atlas the previous universe?

>>83342253
The Celestials came from the previous universe too, along Death. Also, the explanation for the comic book deaths and returns in the sequels is amazing and insane.

i never got how Kingdom Come got so popular but this didnt

>>83344508
No aunt May

>>83344824
It's marvel's kingdom come
It's really underrated

>>83348609
Presentation and scope. Earth X is longer and denser (especially if you include the sequels and errata) because it takes the enormous breadth of crazy shit Kirby tried at Marvel and unites it under one conclusive roof. They may not all get heavy focus but nearly every character, every team, every Cosmic entity from the gods to the Celestials to Galactus to the damn Monolith is accounted for.

I'm probably in the minority but I think working backwards with Eternals vs his Fourth World approach probably served Kirby better in the end. Earth X is like the ultimate seal of approval for me, even if it's not "canon."

>>83349698
Aunt May is dead. Life goes on.

>>83348609
It's an awesome comic but not an "easy" comic.

will this continue to universe x, to be honest I read all of this hoping to see Moon Knight, enjoyed it but need my moon fix.

>>83353717
Moon Knight is in Universe X, where they explain how his "powers" work and how Konshu is actually Uatu.

>>83343806
He looks like a fucking mass production Eva.

Are the other two Earth X series as good as this one?

>>83335246
So did this ever get a proper reprint? Really want this entire story on my shelf.

Is there a better way to read storytimes other than opening it picture by picture?
Storytimes reader noob here.

Or could anyone share a link?

Not really a better way but an extension helps. Try getcomics for a link.
