all I read so far is the Annihilation saga, Thanos Quest/Infinity Gauntlet, some Silver Surfer and the current Ultimates. What else would you anons recommend?
pretty much this Moar reds, user just read all things Surfer, especially the Starlin stuff, since he always wrote in Thanos in his works (Marvel Two-in-One Annual #2 & Avengers Annual #7) he used the Surfer series to set up his cosmic opera Infinity Gauntlet, Infinity War, and Infinity Crusade
he did the rebirth of Thanos during his Surfer run (#34-38)
there's a tpb collection that also carries issue 6 of Logan's Run you should look in to because there was a 5 page back up story involving Drax and Thanos titled "The Final Flower!"
with Marvel Comics Presents #108-111 being extra bonuses scenes of the whole saga
With all this talk of Surfer and Eternals, they all make an appearance in the events of Evolutionary War and the Beyonders too
and Atlantis Attacks came a year after Surfer was in that too
once you start liking Starlin's Surfer run, then you can make your way backwards or forwards by reading Marz and Engelhart's issues
in Silver Surfer Annual #1 (which was a Evolutionary War tie-in)
High Evolutionary not only presents himself to the Eternals as close to being a true Celestials they'll ever witness and so he asks the Eternals for the Surfer's genetic code
leading the Surfer to comment, "The Story is, you Eternals are confused with Gods, but are not Gods!"
The Eternals also experiment on Super-Skrull because Skulls contain the Deviant strain, Engelhart was one of the first to tie the strain from Thanos to the Skrulls
Engelhart and Starlin were good friends dropping acid and writing comics so much so that when Starlin was coming back from DC, Marvel was booting Englehart off all his books so Starlin requested for Englehart to finish his run
Englehart was also the one responsible for having the Elders joining forces to kill Galactus
