![]() ![]() At the time, Marlo was married to Rick Jones, who was in turn was bonded with Captain Marvel, AKA Genis-Vell.ĬAPTAIN MARVEL (2000) #18 revealed how Marlo had been merged with the female embodiment of Death that Thanos had romantically pursued for years. But for this rare occasion, Thor and Thanos found themselves allied again in order to save Marlo Chandler from a death god named Walker. The funny thing about that retcon is that Thanos implied that he really did die when he next encountered Thor in CAPTAIN MARVEL (2000) #17. Regardless, the Thanos that fought Thor and Odin in this tale clearly believed that he was the real deal. INFINITY ABYSS (2001) later revealed that the Thanos in this story was simply a Thanosi, which was one of several clones of Thanos. However, it took some upgraded armor and weapons for Thor to prevail over Thanos, who seemingly perished at the end of the story. Thor joined forces with Firelord to prevent the end of everything. After weakening Odin with poison, Thanos avenged his earlier defeat and teamed up with Mangog on a dark cosmic quest. Thanos resurfaced in THOR (1998) #20- 25 with a new plan to bring unending death to the universe. Of course, there was always bound to be a rematch. Odin ultimately cured his son in THOR (1966) #471, and Thor was so grateful that he thanked everyone for their aid-even Thanos! The Final Morning Sif and Beta Ray Bill actually saved Thanos’ life by persuading Odin to stay his hand. This was also one of the rare times that Thanos has been outmatched, as Odin nearly dispatched him. WARLOCK AND THE INFINITY WATCH (1992) #25 gave us the first ever one-on-one battle between Thor and Odin, as the All-Father misconstrued the heroes’ arrival as an attack on Asgard itself. But when that failed, the only option was to bring Thor to Asgard. WARLOCK CHRONICLES (1993) #8 dealt with the heroes’ attempt to enter Thor’s mind and restore his sanity. That’s why he decided to help the assembled heroes cure Thor. But as much as Thanos enjoyed the fight, he realized that Thor would eventually destroy them all. In SILVER SURFER (1987) #88, Thor and Thanos had a brawl for the ages. Thanos didn’t enter the story until THOR (1966) #470, when Pip the Troll teleported Thor to Thanos’ ship simply because he had exhausted all other ideas. There was once a time when the God of Thunder went insane, and not even Sthe ilver Surfer, Beta Ray Bill, Sif, Adam Warlock, or the Infinity Watch could slow down his rampage across the cosmos. ![]()
