Is Quasar really a "fan favorite"? I mean, if that were true he'd still have a series, right? I think he's the favorite of some fans just like every super-hero has some fans. - Kevingarcia 07:37, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
I've removed the line "Based on a recently released image, fan-favorite Quasar will be heavily involved in events.", I don't think its needed, as Quasar (fan favourite or not) has not shown in the prologue or the 1st issues of the Limited Series. - scarlettspiderg
He's on the cover of Annhilation: Nova #3 (And when I say "on the cover", I mean "the cover is a Quasar pin-up" :)) - SoM 17:31, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
True, but does that mean he's going to be heavily involved in events? or that he's a fan favourite? (although I think he's a great character) Scarlettspiderg 12:53, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
Well, Giffen, unprompted, said Phyla-Vell was "kind of critical to Annihilation" and "Right up there with the miniseries" stars - and she's yet to show up. And it's certainly been said that Quasar's living through this as well, so I wouldn't bet against it being said somewhere that he played a major role. - SoM 20:27, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
Well, I'm sure you guys saw that Quasar made his first appearance at the end of Nova #2...I guess on June 21, it'll be time to see just how big a part he's gonna play - AbeBeer
These summaries need some serious shortening. As it stands, individual issues are taking as long to summarize as entire miniseries should. Phil Sandifer 14:45, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
After just reading the article, I feel it has the "just right" amount of content. The character isn't the most well-known or popular character, even within "comic reading" community, but all the more reason to expound on his origin, history, and interaction within the comic universe. I say "Well done." as new Nova fan who needed some background. (Steve Duck 09-16-2007)
I changed "Goothab Omega" to "Godthab Omega" in Ronan's summary. The lettering in the comics looks like "Goothab" at first glance, but when you look closer, you can see that the third letter is actually a "D".

Umm, since when is the Negative Zone "outer-space"? I mean, they didn't retcon Annihilus' origins did they? WookMuff 07:25, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Bloodpack, can we try to get some consensus on the verb tense in the Annihilation 1 section? IMHO, the only thing that should be in the past tense is the flashback after Rider and Quill question the Queen - by the time she explains Annihilus's plan, the plan has already happened, so that part, and that part only, takes place in "the past" from within the story's perspective. IMHO, the text should read:
Thoughts? TheronJ 13:46, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
As Rider's ground troops attempt to retreat under crushing odds, Firelord attacks the enemy command ship, capturing their Queen and causing the enemy forces to collapse in confusion, at the possible cost of his own life. After inspecting Firelord's comatose body, Rider and Quill question the Queen, who reveals that the entire battle was only a diversion. While Nova's forces fought the Annihilation Wave, Thanos, Tenebrous and Aegis had already attacked Galactus and the Silver Surfer, and defeating them both. Believing the Power Cosmic to be within his grasp, Annihilus orders his troops to kill the remaining former Heralds of Galactus. †Bloodpack† argh! 08:19, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
When you folken get to the page, please comment one way or the other, about the (mostly cosmetic) changes made by me to the page.
1. Individual Issues of "Annihilation" were re-formatted to be easier to find/read by potential viewers (Namely, by boldfacing the individual Issues).
2. All spelling errors that I could find were corrected (I don't yet know how to activate Wiki's version of Spellcheck, if ti has any).
3. Looking at the previous discussion notes, I located any verb tense "errors" that I could locate and corrected them to the present tense: I, too agree with those who believe that the entirety of the article should be written in present tense.
4. Added my own complete summary for Issue #5 (shorten it as well as you can, if you feel the need to).
Don't mind constructive criticism...one way or the other.
Thanos777 02:03, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
well, i guess thats just about it and again, i appreciate your boldness, happy new year! †Bloodpack† 02:24, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Responding in order to "Bloodpack's" points:
See you soon!!

I added a list of casualties from all the minis (except the DRAX mini, which occured before the war began), hope no one minds. I intend to scour the books very soon to add some more specifics. -- SLWalsh 16:23, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
Wow, this article could really use some cleaning up. I made a bunch of minor fixes but it still needs work. Also, at one point near the end it mentions Ravenous having "sued" for peace. I'm not too familiar w/ this story but how exactly does one "sue" for peace?? -- Jaardon 04:11, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
Alrightee then...made some changes to the artice per the suggestions of others in this Talk Page.
Feel free to comment as you see fit; also, feel free to shorten the summaries of the individual 'chapters' of this miniseries as you see fit (but please keep in as much relevant information as possible).
Thanos777 18:45, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
...and #6 is out, it might be time to remove the 'future comics' warning on the article (unless it would be better to wait until after the 'Heralds of Galactus' miniseries?) and maybe review what additional changes, if any, still need to be made to the article? I'm wondering if it might be worth putting this forward for the WP:CPR peer review and/or article assessment process - opinions? -- Mrph 14:11, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
As the United Front was disbanded before the end of the series, I'm not sure it actually warrants an article of its own. -- Mrph 22:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Discussion closed with a decision to MERGE -- Mrph 21:38, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
I've added a (condensed) version of this information back into the article, as I don't think this is a WP:CRYSTAL issue any more.
Sound reasonable? -- Mrph 19:13, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
EDIT: scratch that, im dropping my argument, happy wikiying =) †Bloodpack† 23:40, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Went ahead and deleted mention of Ronan killing Ravenous. Considering the number of mentions of what Ravenous does at the conclusion to Annihilation, didn't seem to make sense. However I haven't read any of the comics, so if there's some whacky series of Ravenous clones and one was killed by Ronan while another took leadership of Annihilus' forces, lemme know.

I was just passing through - I don't have a ton of knowledge about the source material - and I noticed "under-used" in the first sentence of the article. Such a term implies editorial judgment - the opinion of whoever wrote that particular piece of the article.
Who said the characters are under-used? Maybe the were used just right or too much in this limited run. Upon what external research is that statement based?
This is by no means a big deal, but I found the sentence jarring. Can it be changed to something a little less suggestive of a personal opinion. Perhaps they are "rarely" used (or some variation of that)?
