Modern Adam Warlock is in the 2008 Guardians of the Galaxy run, and the recent OGN by Jim Starlin, Thanos: The Infinity Revelation. TO avoid spoiling anyone's enjoyment of these two stories I will not be summarizing the striking similarities. Warlock: The Complete Collection by Jim Starlin is usually considered the primary Warlock run. The on-going will be in print before the graphic novel trilogy. "He had 200 pages of script and 100 pages of pencils on this project when he gave the green light to a strikingly similar plot. Adam Warlock is a character usually associated with the comics of the 70s, but the truth is Warlock like so many of Marvels most successful icons was created by the classic team of Stan. "What I objected to and what will keep me from doing any further work for Marvel Editorial was Tom Brevoort approving a plot for the current on-going series, which was pretty much the same as the Thanos story arc in the graphic novel trilogy Alan Davis and I have been working on for Tom for close to the past year," Starlin explained. Starlin went on to explain how the storyline he pitched was awfully similar to the current ongoing Thanos title by Jeff Lemire, Donny Cates, and company. "Even though I lobbied heavily to write the Thanos on-going that task was twice given to other writers, which is Marvel Editorial's right to do." "Just to set the record straight, Marvel Comics didn't pull me off any books, they just made it clear they weren't interested in using me on any of the tie-in series to the movies or regular series," Starlin wrote.
