Seattle Center Sci-Fi Hall of Fame Museum

Just a heads up I'm flying to Seattle tomorrow for a few days and there's no telling what my internet availability will be during that time so if you don't hear from me don't take it personally. I lived in Seattle for a while when I was a little punk back in the early 80s and I have some of my best childhood memories there when it comes to all things comics and sci-fi.

Over the years since moving to California I've flown and driven back to Seattle for visits and extended stays about half a dozen times but for some reason the last time I was there I didn't check out the then newly finished Seattle Center's Sci-Fi Hall of Fame for reasons I can't remember off hand. This time I'll be sure to hit it my first day there.

This was among some of the clip art that was emailed to me from Gary Martin Jr. yesterday it came with the following information . . . .
Managed a few minutes this morning to check out the new "Thanos: The Infinity Revelation" Original Graphic Novel that has an Ikon appearance.  I haven't read all the dialogue, but it seems like the point of the book is only to reinvigorate Thanos & bring an Adam Warlock back alive into the 616 Universe, the gist of the story being Thanos & Warlock tracking down a Celestial artifact that accomplishes those two things through a trippy mind-meld experience.  Other characters are observers or ineffectual obstacles in the quest; the Annihilators are easily brushed aside one by one in a 15-or-so-page sequence (the book has about 90 pages of story).  Dialogue includes the words Galador & Spaceknight(s), but there is no follow-up whatsoever on the fate of Galador or any other Spaceknights, nor is there any character development of Ikon...how she survived The Builders, what she's done since her last appearance fighting on Centauri IV besides reuniting with the Annihilators team, her pursuit of Quasar, nothing.  We do see the front side of Ikon's head after Warlock drains her armor's power & removes her faceplate, and the bit of her hair that is shown gives some hope to a theory I have, but that will remain for some future "revelation", unfortunately.

Thanks for sharing Gary, the art work looks good and maybe even the story is too but as a ROM fan I once again find myself disappointed with what marvel has come up with. The first panel with Ikon where she says "So orders Ikon of Galador" might as well have included a foot note that reads something like this . . . Dear readers we here at marvel don't care about continuity or listening to the readers who are our bread and butter so just shut up and give us your money.
