The MCU’s Avengers: Infinity War film left Marvel fans worldwide absolutely stunned when their favorite heroic team failed to prevent Thanos from completing his mission to wipe out half of all life in the universe. What many believed would be the culmination of years of storytelling ended up being the depressing first act of a story that would restructure the MCU so drastically it would be the start of a new era of movies. However, it might interest fans to know that the original comics these movies were based on are nothing like each other. In fact, Thanos isn’t even the main villain of the original The Infinity War comic series.The six-issue story saw heroes and villains unite to stop an evil version of Adam Warlock from harnessing an altogether different kind of power to reshape the universe. Ironically, it was the good guys who were trying to assemble the Infinity Gauntlet this time around. Yet, when tampering with godlike forces, chaos is bound to occur, and in their desperation to save the universe, they nearly doomed it. Still, understanding how the series played out and where it would eventually lead is important. The Infinity War may not be like its cinematic successor, but it certainly has the same scale.The evil half of his personality manifested as a physical entity all on its own. Calling him the Magus, he would go on to collect several “cosmic containment units,” otherwise known as the Cosmic Cubes. These artifacts had similar power to the Infinity Gems. The Magus intended to use them to conquer the universe but also to seek revenge against Adam Warlock and Thanos. Magus then used the cubes to attack Eternity, rendering him catatonic for a time and eliminating the biggest potential threat to his power. Of course, the next threat would be the various heroes who would doubtless learn of his intentions soon enough. Fortunately for the Magus, he had time and the element of surprise on his side.
