Eternals #2 by Kieron Gillen and Esad Ribić promises to reveal the role the Mad Titan Thanos will play in the relaunch of the Marvel Comics series.
The Mad Titan Thanos is set to play a major role in Kieron Gillen and Esad Ribić’s Eternals relaunch, with the Marvel Cinematic Universe villain battling Ikaris in Eternals #2.
Thanos recently returned from the dead in Donny Cates and Geoff Shaw’s Guardians of the Galaxy #6. However, this isn’t the same Thanos that readers are most familiar with. The Mad Titan was revived using the body of his brother, Eros aka Starfox. Guardians’ Star-Lord and Gamora were able to stop the transfer process midway, leaving Thanos a walking zombie. What state Eternals #2 shows Thanos remains to be seen. The villain was originally killed by Gamora in the Marvel event series, Infinity Wars.
