As you reel from this week’s epic conclusion to Marvel’s Infinity event I’m inspired to have as our Friday Flashback an earlier classic clash between Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and Thanos.
Writer Jim Starling, artists George Perez and Ron Lim gave us The Infinity Gauntlet back in 1991 in which the entire Marvel Universe took on the Mad God of Titan.
