Summary

What does a death-obsessed demigod do after he acquires six impossibly powerful talismans that make him Master of All Reality? ANYTHING HE WANTS. Join the Geeks on a cosmic odyssey back to the early '90s as they turn their attention to The Infinity Gauntlet, the six-issue Marvel miniseries that began an ongoing cycle of Warlock/Thanos 'Infinity' stories by Jim Starlin. Thoughts are shared on the cosmic philosophy and mind-bending magniloquence of writer Starlin, the artwork of George Perez and Ron Lim, the characterization of Thanos (SPOILER: not all of us were impressed!), and the ramifications of this story for the future of Marvel Cinematic Universe. (2:37:57) (*Also available on YouTube, as the first-ever CGS vidcast!)
