Avengers: Secret Wars
Summary
Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes will have a much gamy kill count than the Thanos in Marvel Studios’Avengers : Secret Wars . After he had been teased throughout the MCU ’s Infinity Saga , Avengers : eternity Wardetailed Thanos ' quest to collect the six Infinity Stones and bring balance to the population . While the Avengers put up a fair scrap against the Mad Titan , he still managed to complete his commission , snapping his finger and pass over out half the universe of the universe . This gave Thanos a high-pitched kill count than the MCU had previously take in , but this record book might presently be broken asAvengers : Secret Warspromises to be a spectacle unlike any other .
Thanos might have meet his demise inAvengers : Endgametwice , but the Multiverse Saga has introduced a pot of other baddie and concepts that could put the very future of the MCU in jeopardy . While a new Avengers squad is expected to form to struggle Kang the Conqueror and theCouncil of Kangs inAvengers : The Kang Dynasty , Secret Warsis expected to be a much larger - scale leaf adventure . Phase 4 introduced the idea of incursions , prune timelines , and malefic stochastic variable , which could all have a handwriting in makingAvengers : Secret Warsthe most baneful MCU project yet , potentially even put Thanos ' destructive travail to shame .
Thanos (Temporarily) Killed Trillions, But Only In 1 Universe
It ’s unknown precisely how many lives Thanos take inAvengers : Infinity War , though Bruce Banner suggests that he"murdered trillions"during an interaction inEndgame’sopening minute . This is an incomprehensible stage of death attributed to Thanos , and even though he may have had good intentions in wanting to save resourcefulness for those remaining , Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes had no option but to fight back and turn back this ravaging . While Thanos ' killing reckoning is severely vast , all this death only pass in one cosmos : theMCU ’s 616 - universe , soAvengers : Secret Warshas the opportunity to far surpass the Mad Titan ’s current record .
Secret Wars' Multiverse Ending Requires Far More Death
IfAvengers : Secret Warsis adapted from Marvel Comics ' 2015 crosswalk plot line of the same name , the Phase 6 film could feature an incursion ( or several ) obliterating the multiverse . In the cartoon strip , Doctor Doom and Doctor Strange created Battleworld , a topographic point where the subsister could be after the disaster , and the multiverse was later rebuilt . If this massive incursion occurs in the live - activeness MCU - as it has been tease to do - Thanos ' kill count would very quickly be put to ignominy , as jillion upon billions of beings across a miscellanea of alternate realities would all lose their lives , rather than the damage being contained to one universe .
confidential Warscould also reveal that the only way to vote out Kang the Conqueror is to create a new Sacred Timeline , akin to how He Who Remains defeated his malevolent variants during the premature Multiversal War . This would once again establish one single timeline in the MCU , which might make sense for stories releasing after theconclusion of the Multiverse Saga . However , this would mean an impossible amount of branching timelines would need to be trimmed , effectively obliterate all life live in those realities . This mean thatAvengers : Secret Warscould be one of the most destructive MCU projection yet , and may make Thanos ' activeness inInfinity Warseem minor .
