Galactus versus Unicron - Place Your Bets

It's time to place your bets folks. Who do you think will come out as the victor? On one side we have Marvel's planet eating menace Galactus. On the other side, the feared chaos avatar from the Transformers U, Unicron.

So how could this fight turn? I'm thinking both get drawn to Earth at the same time. It's going to be the perfect timing since both the Transformers are in Iacon (see the latest events in Robots in Disguise and More Than Meets the Eye) while majority of the heroes of Earth are either off planet or busy battling Thanos and his crew (Infinity).

Things take a turn for the worse when both decide they want Earth for themselves thus a fight ensues in the dark recess of space.

Who Will Win
	Galactus
	Unicron

Look for these to be released in October 2013.

Galactus Poised to Gobble the Ultimate Universe

Another fallout from the events of Age of Ultron is the advent of Galactus in the Ultimate Universe. 

It's an interesting concept as it's been a year or so since the last major event in Marvel's Ultimate Universe.

Update: CBR has more details regarding this story and it looks like Brian Michael Bendis and Joshua Fialkov will be scripting this titanic crossover. Check out the other covers for HUNGER...

Again, CBR has a tl;dr story about this new miniseries and also yields a number of preview pages. Here's my favorite pages from the preview so far.

Hunger # 1 will be gobbling planets in stores in July, 2013

New Avengers # 3 Spoilers - Infinity Officially Begins

The seeds for the Marvel's cosmic crossover Infinity has been sown in New Avengers # 3 by Jonathan Hickman and Steve Epting.

There are massive spoilers here so if you haven't read the book, you might want to skip this. 

In this issue Beast officially joins Marvel's Illuminati and it's just in time witness the team's efforts to stop the incursion from happening. This plan is enacted by Captain America and involves the use of the Infinity Gauntlets and the Infinity gems as well.

With the gems all together in one place, it automatically summons the Infinity Gauntlet. The summoning does not go unnoticed as we see a panel wherein three of Marvel's big cosmic characters notice this disturbance in 'The Force'. Unluckily for the Illuminati, one of three beings that notices the appearance of the gauntlet is it's former master Thanos.

To stop the imminent death of two Earths, Captain America reluctantly wears the gauntlet and uses it to push away the other Earth...

He manages to push away the errant Earth but it came with an ultimate sacrifice...

FUCK!!!!! The most powerful items in the Marvel Universe suddenly breaks apart like they were nothing... 
:(

Later as the team reconvenes in Wakanda's Necropolis, the rest of the Illuminati ponder the fate of Captain America whom they ultimately blame for the dismantling of the gems and the loss of their biggest secret weapon. 

It's Tony Stark who actually asks Doctor Strange to pull the magical 'trigger' and mindwipe Steve Rogers about his time as a member of the Illuminati. 

For a superhero book with clandestine activities, this has got to be one of the more ruthless moments for these supposed 'leaders'. Still its a pretty good read and I'm still wondering why Hank is still drawn in his cat mutation. Should the events here be placed chronologically as happening before All New X-Men # 1?
