We jump forward about 50 years from last week by reading the “Ultimate Galactus Trilogy,” a tome of a story arc spanning three miniseries and a one-shot. It’s a huge tale with a long, savory buildup. But do we like these Ultimates or do we want our old helmet-head back? For more information on past or upcoming episodes, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!
We take it back old school to 1966 to read the first appearance of one of the Marvel Universe’s biggest baddies by reading a trio of issues from Stan Lee & Jack Kirby’s original run on the Fantastic Four. “The Galactus Trilogy” spans issues 48 through 50. It’s fraught with great line art, poor coloring, and one hell of a dysfunctional team dynamic — not to mention the end of the world.

Our space-entity thingymajig series continues with this 2006 re-imagining of Jack Kirby’s “Eternals.” This new take, rendered in rich character by Neil Gaiman and John Romita Jr., was Marvel’s attempt to make these characters once more a part of their universe. Mostly, it’s a fine attempt, and at the very least, it reinforces Marvel’s idea that in the vastness of space, “good” and “bad” can be relative terms.
