Infinity Crossover : Who Is Fighting Against Thanos

Thanos and his forces came to Earth and did not have the easy conquest that he would have expected. Against overwhelming odds the Illuminati held their own.

Wakhanda was successfully defended, the X Men were stopped by two of the Titan’s soldiers though it is not clear whether or not they had been defeated. The city of Atlantis had already been captured, while Namor lied to stay alive, with Mr Fantastic and Iron Man held the attackers back from the vantage point of Avengers Tower.





t was not Dr Strange’s finest hour yet he survived, on the other hand Ebony Maw seemed to have a lot of superhero potential and should appear in later adventures.

Yet the star of the show, or at least of the fighting on Earth was the Black Bolt. He had already been hiding and protecting one of Thanos’ sons.

Furthermore, Black Bolt has been plotting to find ways to restore the Inhumans to their full fighting power. Achieving that aim would make it more difficult for Thanos to get what he wants from Earth.

When Thanos comes down to Earth to discuss his demands, it is with Black Bolt he holds talks with. Black Bolt does a great job of talking for the whole planet.

What Thanos did not know was that Black Bolt and his brother Maximus the Mad had made preparations to deal with such a threat. At the core of the plan is the bomb that Maximus built, it is set off by the screams of Black Bolt.

Besides the explosives the bomb contained Terrigan Mist, which activates the full powers of the Inhumans and massively reinforces the number of defender Earth has. The mist also restores full power to Thanos’ son. It is a power that can rival his father’s.

This is a compelling story and it is intriguing to find out how Black Bolt does in stopping Thanos.
