I feel like some of the negative reviews on this book are because there isn't much of a plot on this book. But I think that the idea is to basically recap stuff in chronological order. So if you want to know how everything came to be I would recommend it. But if you are expecting some astonishing plot, you will be disappointed. Though I do understand story-wise kind of why, it's weird to me that Galactus is basically doing the job of the Watchers.
