Annihilation (comics)
"Annihilation" is a 2006 crossover storyline published by Marvel Comics, highlighting several outer space-related characters in the Marvel Universe. The central miniseries was written by Keith Giffen, with editor Andy Schmidt.
A 48-page one-shot issue, Annihilation: Prologue, was released on March 15, 2006. It was followed by four concurrent 4-issue miniseries, Silver Surfer (April 1, 2006), Super-Skrull (April 12, 2006), Nova (April 19, 2006), and Ronan the Accuser (April 26, 2006). Annihilation was published as a six issue miniseries beginning in August 2006. It was followed by two issues of Annihilation: Heralds of Galactus and a new volume of Nova.
While not published with the Annihilation banner, Drax the Destroyer: Earthfall #1–4 (Sept 2005) and Thanos #7–12 (2004) were preludes to the event.
Thanos visits the intergalactic prison, the Kyln. With the help of Star-Lord, he subdues the female mortal form of the Beyonder called the Maker. Thanos also befriends Skreet, a chaos mite, and enslaves a former herald of Galactus, the Fallen One.
Drax the Destroyer is on a prison transport ship that crashes in Alaska. He befriends a teenage girl named Cammi and protects the locals from the Blood Brothers, Lunatik, and Paibok. During the battle, Drax gains a new body. A second prison ship arrives and arrests Drax and Cammi.
The Annihilation Wave, a large armada of warships under the control of Annihilus, enters this universe through "The Crunch", the area of space where the Negative Zone and this Universe meet. The Kyln and several neighboring star systems are quickly annexed. The Nova Corps, an intergalactic police force, immediately calls in all Nova Centurions for a top level briefing in Xandar, the Nova Corps home world. During the briefing, The Annihilation Wave invades and successfully destroys the planet, including all Nova Corp members save for Richard Rider, the lone human Nova Corps member. Having also been delivered to Xandar prior to the attack, Drax and Cammi also survive the onslaught of the Annihilation Wave.
Elsewhere in the galaxy, Ronan the Accuser, Supreme Accuser of the Kree Empire, is arrested for treason. The Super-Skrull learns that the Annihilation Wave is moving toward the Skrull Empire, while the Silver Surfer decides to investigate.
After the fall of Xandar, Richard Rider, the last surviving known Nova Corps member in the universe, allows the Xandarian Worldmind, the artificial intelligence compiled of the eons of knowledge and experiences of the entire Xandarian race and the repository for the Nova Force—the cosmic power utilized by all Nova Corps members—to download itself in its entirety into his mind and body in order to prevent itself from being lost to the universe.
