Marvel Universe: The End

In this 2013 Marvel one-shot, writer and artist Jim Starlin crafts a cosmic, final-act saga for the Marvel Universe, exploring what might happen when the entire multiverse faces absolute annihilation. A standalone epilogue to Starlin's long-running cosmic narratives, it brings together Thanos, Adam Warlock, and other godlike beings in a philosophical battle against an ultimate, reality-ending threat. As a capstone to Starlin's celebrated run on Marvel's cosmic characters, Marvel Universe: The End stands as a dense, introspective meditation on existence and entropy from one of the medium's most distinctive architect-voices.
