The reason why I want to see Annihilus is because the idea of humanity being the invaders into the Negative Zone, the concept of bringing something back into our world by accident and humans provoking an alien invasion is all incredibly interesting to me.
Plus Annihilus as this hideous insect thing under some really intimidating armor would be a great homage to the David Cronenberg remake of The Fly. Like you break it's face off, then watch as this gross mantis thing's head is underneath.
That combined with how he views humanity as a threat after discovering his world in the Negative Zone and then countering by leading a massive invasion of our world gives some great food for though as to him, WE look like monsters and to be fair, we actually did come across as scary invaders from another dimension first and if his species were the first to discover our reality, we'd probably make the same exact choice out of the same fear.
Plus an experiment involving firing cosmic rays into the Negative Zone to see how they change properties going awry is a great idea for an origin. Plus, it all being Reed's fault after he, Sue and Ben were removed from the project, so they steal the shuttle despite Johnny not having any sort of experience that would qualify him for this, Johnny messes up the experiment and everyone but the four of them involved int he experiment is now dead. Stopping Annihilus is Reed redeeming himself.
Plus, a bit of cosmic horror along the lines of Event Horizon or Alien is hardly a bad thing. Annihilus can be really, truly creepy if given the chance.
Love this post! Its exactly the kind of story I'd like Trank to tell.
