So, this is my first blog, hope I'm not gonna screw this up.

Let's face it. We all love epic storylines. Wars between gods, Universe-saving quests, helpless fights against Lovecraftian monsters from other dimensions, planet destructing battles, powerful individuals going against entire armies or space fleets alone, dramatic fights at the verge of destruction of reality itself – tell me you read those words, imagine those things without any emotions, that you imagined all those things and did not feel any excitement and and I will call you a liar. We love when our comics are epic, otherwise there wouldn't be such vocal group criticizing Brian Bendis' New Avengers for not being epic enough. If I would have to summary this year of Marvel in one word, it would be “Epic”. Marvel started this year with Siege, followed with three different volumes of Avengers trying to top each other over which will have most epic start – with The Avengers has to save the timeline, New Avengers - entire Universe and Secret Avengers – The Multiverse. Meanwhile X-Men seen their last  stand in war for the future of entire mutantkind and invasion of vampires. Space wasn't free of epicness either, not with one of the best comics of the year, Thanos Imperative, going on. Mystical side of the Universe isn't any better with Chaos War - the threat to the existence of everything. You might have any opinion you want about, you may think it was good or bad, success or failure, but I don't think anybody can deny that Marvel tried to give us as much of epicness we love as they could. Next year may, hopefully, continue this trend, with upcoming adventures of Annihilators and new event, so-called “Fear Itself”.

I was thinking what else of the epic side they could give us, what team could have most epic adventures. It has to be strong team, made of the strongest beings, ones fans calls heavy-hitters or big guns. The ones strong so much that their whole presence indicated things are very, very serious. Annihilators are good example - when you see so many strongest players of the Cosmic side of Marvel together, you know they're not gonna deal with some space pirates. There is another team who has such vibe, that can make you feel that they aren't here for something Avengers could put down. No, they're gonna take down some ancient evil and kick it unholy butt. Wait, I take it back. Not one ancient Evil. Hundreds of them, at the same time. I'm talking about the team of gods, team of the immortals. I'm talking about team of people touched by powers beyond human understanding. I'm talking about team of those who are such powers.

I'm talking about God Squad.

Marvel Universe has seen two incarnations of this team. First one was gathered by Athena and Earth's patheons to fight Skrull gods during Secret Invasion, from enslaving every diety on Earth. Second one has to stop former member of first one, Amatsu Mikaboshi, now know as Chaos King, from destroying all of creation. First team included Demogorge, terrible monster who eats gods. Second has Galactus – Devourer of the Worlds – himself. Sounds as pretty damn epic to me and that's the point – when God Squad gathers, you know they're not gonna fight with some common threat. Guys they take on are from the highest mystical league. Dormammu, Hela, Mephisto, Lucifer, Dragon Of The Moon, Oblivion, Shuma-Gorath – that's only few of threats such team could take on. When it comes to God Squad, it comes to the most epic thing you got.

The team has simple selection – it contains gods, or those who are equal to gods and have certain, mystical feeling, like Daimon Hellstorm or Silver Surfer. This means that, while selecting new roster, writers can choose from large variety of big guns – from Eternals and actual gods to those related to them like Thunderstrike r Beta Ray Bill to demons and angels, or one's like Ghost Rider or Doctor Strange. The only constant are Amadeus Cho and Hercules, who were on both incarnations of the team and give some link between every version.

Would I like to see God Squad, maybe not current, but new incarnation, getting their own mini-series, or maybe even ongoing? Hell yes. With good writer and strong team, this would give me daily dose of awesomness for months.

And What do you think? Is it good idea to give God Squad their own comics? Or should they stay as temporary team, gathering only when new, great menace threatens the world of mortals and immortals alike?
