    I just realised the cancerverse’s name is twofold, since it both refers to Captain Marvel avoiding death but also the fact this universe is uncontrolled, unrestrained multiplication of life. Clever.

      This was the end of the pre-MCU Guardians of the Galaxy and the start of Thanos's character regression into a less intelligent and thuggish brute who completely forgot about his character development and his friendship with Warlock. Although he managed to trick Evil Mar-Vell into summoning Death in the Cancerverse.

    When this mini-series came out, I bought the first two issues, and pre-ordered the next four (?) to my local comic shop, and when I went back in to get the rest, they claimed that they "never came in." I never gave them my business after that.

    ROB could you PLEASE do stories explaining the history and backstory of the different empires in the Marvel universe? like the history and founding of the shi'ar, or the skrulls. we know they exist but how'd they form and whatnot. that'd be epic bro. thanks for all the great videos.

    I mean there’s an obvious lovecraft influence in the many angled ones, ex. Fthagn being used in the chants, but it’s really cool how the og writer of Conan was friends with H.P. So they used each others mythos in each others stories. Cool to see it bleed into modern marvel!

    5:00 except during this period up untill Annihilation, Thanos was no longer interested in getting mystical macguffins and trying to convince Death to love him and became a reclusive farmer and pilgrim who would occasionally help Adam Warlock save the universe. We see this phase of Thanos in Infinity War, Infinity Crusade, Infinity Abyss, The End and the Samaritan series leading up to Annihilation.
