Wait, isn't Franklin's deal with Galactus that he'll be there with him at the end and they'll carry on to the next universe together?
Hickman's run is a great example of both a genuine universe-scale cosmic story and a great big box of tools for the next writer to root around in if they want.

Anyone read his Secret Warriors run - worth the effort?

It's what actually turned me on to his Marvel work, and it's pretty good! I'm not sure how much Bendis had to do with the initial plotting, but it has that wheels-within-wheels Hickman thing going, although all contained within one series. It also has enough callbacks for Nick Fury fans to make it worthwhile

Secret Warriors was decent but got completely fucked by forced crossovers and the like. I think his SHIELD series was great.

I've dug pretty much everything of Hickman's that I've read. Except maybe not so much his Ultimate stuff but that's more because it's Ultimate stuff than because of his contribution.

His Image series East of West is one of the only ongoing comics I still give a crap about.
