Saw this in IMAX 3D.
For a LOOOOOONG film it seemed to fly by. I didn't find any individual scenes boring or unnecessary. There were some sacrifices- Valkyrie not being onscreen. Winter Soldier being little more than a cameo...but to include so many characters, keep you invested, develop them all and move the plot along I would say this is a huge success.
Yes, it's not Godfather part 2 or Citizen Kane. It's a huge entertaining pop-corn film.
I found this much more enjoyable that the turgid Black Panther. Stand out moments from Chis Hemsworth as Thor in almost every scene he's in. Tom Holland, Zoe Saldana and stealing the movie from under RDJ's feet- for me- was Benedict Cumberbatch as the Sorcerer Supreme.
The ending was pretty much as promised (or threatened) by Thanos.
I'm also guessing a time travel solution based on what's known about Avengers 4 and my suspicions that Doctor Strange set it all up to go this way as the only scenario where they can win.
I'm now looking forward to Avengers 4, even if the heroes that died stay dead. It will be interesting to see where they go from here.
Financial success is assured and I know Marvel have their critics but I found this to be a much better film than Black Panther, The Last Jedi and Force Awakens!
I will be going to see it again. (That's a definite as my Mrs has told me she definitely wants to see it too based on word of mouth from her social circles.)

Hi, not strictly a 2000ad item but tenuously linked by it's creators!!
I'm looking to get hold of a copy of WARRIOR # 1 (1982 I believe) as a 50th birthday present for my brother.
Tried eBay, where there are complete sets listed for a few hundred, which I didn't think was too pricey for the whole set.
But he's got all those....only needs issue 1.

I guess anything around £30- £50 seems to be what the early issues have gone for.
Anyone got a copy up for grabs?

Just found this strip.
Not bad at all. Will there be more by these 2 guys? Is it just on the website or in a comic somewhere?

Main reason for posting though is listing the crowd scene guest stars...all speculation on my part though.

Part 1. Torquamada, Tiger commander from Meltdown Man, Preacher Cain (back of his head), a Kleg, Howard the Duck

Part 4. Kang or Kodos from the Simpsons

Part 7. Daredevil (Universe X version)

Part 8 & 9. A Kleg, Rhino from Meltdown Man, Axel Pressbutton

Part 10. Kree Warrior, Zenith (can just see the Z on his shirt), Dalek, Wookie (?), Swamp Thing, Dredd or a Judge, Blok (?-Legion of Superheroes), Halo Jones, Tharg, Space Ghost (Scooby Doo), The Fury, Mekon, Spidey, Hammerstein

Part 15. Ro Jaws, Kleg
