Realm of Kings For Cheap!
April 20th, 2010 by david brothers | Tags: amazon, Marvel comics
Amazon’s running a 71% off deal for the Realm of Kings hardcover that drops later this year. Summary:
Collecting three Realm of Kings series in one power-packed hardcover. In Imperial Guard, one hazardous mission may be the solution that everyone is praying for, but are the opinionated and fractured Guard tough enough – and united enough – to accomplish it? And in Inhumans, now led by Queen Medusa, the battered and bruised royal family struggles to maintain their grip on the reigns of power. Courtly intrigues and external threats are beginning to erode their rule, but the biggest threat may lurk within the family itself! Then in Son of Hulk, meet a new monster for a new age, and a challenger to the warring Kings of the Cosmos…he is Hiro-Kala, Son of Hulk, and this young apocalyptic visionary has a destructive destiny: obliterate the Universe! Collects Realm of Kings: Inhumans #1-5, Realm of Kings: Son of Hulk #1-4, and Realm of Kings: Imperial Guard #1-5.
These were all pretty good, and eleven bucks for 330+ pages? That’s a great deal. Preorder it if you like.
Would it be a good story if I haven’t read the previous Marvel cosmic stuff (except Annihilation)?
I likes cheap-o comics!

by david brothers April 20th, 2010 at 11:40 --replyThanks for the heads up. After picking up one or two issues of the RoK stuff I’d decided to trade wait. Especially on those first two. So getting them collected together for less than I’d pay for either individually is very cool…
