"Little One, it's a simple calculus.
Which is Wrong.
The Universe is finite
It isn’t.
It's resources finite.
They aren’t.
If Life is left unchecked, Life will cease to exist.
It won’t, and it doesn’t.
It needs Correction."
How often..?
You Don't Know That!
"I'm The Only One Who Knows That.
At least,
I'm The Only One with The Will to Act on It."
The Key to Time is a Perfect Cube
which maintains the equilibrium of Time itself.
It consists of six segments, and these segments are scattered and hidden throughout the cosmos.
When they are assembled into the cube, they create a power which is too dangerous for any being to possess.
There are times, Doctor, when the forces within The Universe upset the balance to such an extent that it becomes necessary to STOP everything.
STOP Everything...?
Er, for A Brief Moment Only.
Ah....
Such a Moment is Rapidly Approaching.
“If Kirby’s Promethean dialectic was informed by his experiences in World War II, Starlin’s came courtesy of the post–Vietnam War counterculture.
Thanos was Darkseid not as galactic tyrant but as thwarted lover, a gnarled and massive embodiment of the death wish that had overwhelmed so many young Americans in the sixties.
To make sure no one missed the point, Thanos even courted Death itself in the alluring form of a robed, hooded, voluptuously breasted female figure that followed him around like some ghostly Benedictine groupie.
Kirby’s Satan was a monster of tyranny; Starlin’s was a frustrated nihilist, wooing Death like a lovesick puppy.
Thanos was a Gothic teenage villain who spoke to a generation that couldn’t care less about Hitler or the will to power.”
