This is it... This is the big one. That's right, True Believers, we’ve reached the end of the road as it's time for The Marvelists' review of Avengers - Infinity War. When Thanos gets all of the gems for the Infinity Gauntlet, all hell breaks loose. Is no one safe? An all star cast makes up what is guaranteed to be the biggest film in comic book movie history.

On top of our thoughts on Infinity War, we're also joined alongside Roy Thomas who is responsible for a ton of characters in the history of Marvel, including The Vision himself!

And if that wasn't enough, we're also joined with the father of this film's big bad himself - Thanos' dad, Jim Starlin!
