The Infinity Gauntlet #4
In "Cosmic Battle on the Edge of the Universe!", Jim Starlin's epic saga reaches a fever pitch as Earth's heroes, led by Captain America, launch a desperate assault on Thanos. With George Pérez’s dynamic cover setting the tone, Ron Lim and George Pérez deliver stunning interior art as Thanos, swayed by Mephisto’s cunning, tempers his power for a more "honorable" fight—only to systematically overcome the heroes. Warlock watches from afar, revealing the battle is a trap, and sends the Silver Surfer on a critical mission to seize the Infinity Gauntlet—just as Thanos, now fully aware of the deception, prepares to face the universe’s mightiest forces.

As earth's heroes begin to attack Thanos, Mephisto convinces him that Death will be more impressed by his courage if the fight is fair. Thanos quenches some of his power and battles the heroes led by Captain America and he kills them one by one. Observing from space, Warlock tells the Surfer that the heroes are merely a distraction and doomed for defeat. He then sends the Surfer in to snag the gauntlet from Thanos but the try misses. Realizing that he has come very close to being beaten by Warlock's ploy, Thanos powers back up only to be confronted by the most powerful beings in the universe.
