Marvel Universe: Infinity War

"Infinity War" is a multi-part storyline that took place in issues of comic book titles published by Marvel Comics in the summer through winter of 1992. The main story took place in the six-issue Infinity War comic book limited series and crossed over into numerous titles through the months of June to November. Infinity War is the second of three limited series that comprise the "Infinity" saga. It takes place after the events of the Infinity Gauntlet mini-series and prior to the Infinity Crusade comic title.

The central villain of the story is the Magus, who is the evil-counterpart to Adam Warlock. In a bid to contain total control over the universe, the Magus utilizes cosmic containment units, which possess power that rivals even that of the Infinity Gauntlet. To keep the heroes of Earth at bay, he creates demonic doppelgangers of many of them and pits them against the likes of the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider-Man, the Hulk, Quasar, Moon Knight, and so on. When the heroes of Earth can't handle the threat alone, its time for some of their most ardent foes to step up. Thanos in particular has great interest in unseating the Magus, as does Doctor Doom and Kang the Conqueror.
