Infinity Gauntlet (Marvel Comics)

Nice Collection: Would Have Been Better if in Chronological Order...
Don't get me wrong. I love the stories of Warlock written by Jim Starlin, illustrated by Ron Lim, Angel Medina et al; and I'm happy Marvel has collected these books under one cover. That's the good. The bad? You sure do have to flip around a lot, back and forth, in ...
