Mitch Breitweiser's contribution to the first chapters (coloured to complementary perfection by Brian Reber) is an equally sturdy but grainy version of PLANETARY's John Cassady, and Renato Arlem (coloured with well chose contrasts by June Chung) in no slouch in space, with a terrific sense of scale when the Silvered One surfs over a dirty-brown industrial planet or when the insatiable, drink-'em-dry Devourer of Worlds comes to call. Nova himself gets a make-over when his base of operations is wiped out, and cautiously accepts Drax and Cammi as companions. She ends up accompanying him across the universe which is where the Annihilation saga properly kicks off. There Drax undergoes a bit of an evolution after he bumps into Cammi, a young girl with a fine line in pithy put-downs. The first collection of Marvel's decade-old foray into outer space crash-lands on Earth, as Drax The Destroyer escapes from a space prison along with a shape-shifting Skrull and a couple of monstrous purple twins to cause a certain degree of upheaval in small-town Alaska. Nova: "So, no history of destroying in your past?" Nova: "Any relation to Drax The Destroyer?"
