Read full description of the books:

If you go into this omnibus expecting a fairly low-brow mega-powered intergalactic would-be epic, you'll not be disappointed. Alas, I was. This collection tells the tale of the invasion of the Annihilation Wave across the known universe, destroying huge civilisations in its apparently unstoppable wake. Apparently? Well, of course not, but a villain and a confrontation which at the outset appears foreboding and meaningful ends up as brawling power match-up and then it ends.

The problem is that with a whole raft of interplanetary super-powered characters, it is easy to lapse into all of them having godlike powers of undetermined extent, and unless they have particular themes (e.g. Sandman's Endless, or gods *of* something) or constraints, then you need a decent plot and well-drawn characters to make the story interesting. And this has neither.

There are a few twists and turns along the way, what with Thanos, Drax The Destroyer, Galactus, Krees, Skrulls, Heralds, Nova and so forth moving about the universe and doing what can be described as no better than "interacting", which is to say that everyone's pretty shallow, they all have indistinct levels of the power cosmic / cosmic energy or whatever, meaning you neither know nor care what any of them can do to any other of them because ultimately it doesn't mean anything. They are moved around as plot-pieces, and there is no coherent basis for justifying why any particular characters is killed or defeated.

Comic books don't have to be like this: Marvel 1602, Joss Whedon's X-Men run, and Ultimate Galactus are all superb, and the Ultimate Fantastic Four and X-Men and Planet Hulk all had their moments. But Annihilation was a leaden bucket of energy with no structure or meaning.

Keith Ian Giffen is an American comic book illustrator and writer. He is possibly best-known for his long runs illustrating, and later writing the Legion of Super-Heroes title in the 1980s and 1990s. He also created the alien mercenary character Lobo (with Roger Slifer), and the irreverent "want-to-be" hero, Ambush Bug. Giffen is known for having an unorthodox writing style, often using characters in ways not seen before. His dialogue is usually characterized by a biting wit that is seen as much less zany than dialogue provided by longtime collaborators DeMatteis and Robert Loren Fleming. That approach has brought him both criticism and admiration, as perhaps best illustrated by the mixed (although commercially successful) response to his work in DC Comics' Justice League International (1987-1992). He also plotted and was breakdown artist for an Aquaman limited series and one-shot special in 1989 with writer Robert Loren Fleming and artist Curt Swan for DC Comics.

Giffen's first published work was "The Sword and The Star", a black-and-white series featured in Marvel Preview, with writer Bill Mantlo. He has worked on titles (owned by several different companies) including Woodgod, All Star Comics, Doctor Fate, Drax the Destroyer, Heckler, Nick Fury's Howling Commandos, Reign of the Zodiac, Suicide Squad, Trencher (to be re-released in a collected edition by Boom! Studios)., T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents, and Vext. He was also responsible for the English adaptation of the Battle Royale and Ikki Tousen manga, as well as creating "I Luv Halloween" for Tokyopop. He also worked for Dark Horse from 1994-95 on their Comics Greatest World/Dark Horse Heroes line, as the writer of two short lived series, Division 13 and co-author, with Lovern Kindzierski, of Agents of Law. For Valiant Comics, Giffen wrote XO-Manowar, Magnus, Robot Fighter, Punx and the final issue of Solar, Man of the Atom.

He took a break from the comic industry for several years, working on storyboards for television and film, including shows such as The Real Ghostbusters and Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy.

He is also the lead writer for Marvel Comics's Annihilation event, having written the one-shot prologue, the lead-in stories in Thanos and Drax, the Silver Surfer as well as the main six issues mini-series. He also wrote the Star-Lord mini-series for the follow-up story Annihilation: Conquest. He currently writes Doom Patrol for DC, and is also completing an abandoned Grant Morrison plot in The Authority: the Lost Year for Wildstorm.
