Thanos is trying to upstage Dr Doom, but neither of them are actually in their issues

Rob Johnson By Rob Johnson

2 more One World Under Doom tie-ins for your delectation.

AVENGERS #26 continues Captain America (Sam Wilson)'s lone fight against Mad Thinker's Masters Of Evil. But just when all seems lost Black Panther turns up.

SUPERIOR AVENGERS #2 reveals the team from the future's plan. They're gathering energy from magic items in this time to replace all the magic defences that went away when they killed future Dr Doom.

T Vernon's AVENGERS #349 is another 1-off interlude where Ares and Hera pit Hercules against Thor (Eric Masterson) just because they can.

In AMERICA #11 Chavez returns to Fuertona to oppose La Legion who've taken her grandmother. She's aided by another Starling and the Crystal Of Uzam.

Returning to the Thanos trail I've added comments to X-MAN/HULK ANNUAL 1998 to explain that this is the last hurrah of the Low-Level Thanosi from the 1997 Ka-Zar series.

And then THOR (1998) #21 follows on from Peter's Thursday #20 to show Mangog and the Higher-Powered Thanosi defeating all of Asgard to take the Map Of All-Ending which will lead them to the Designate where they will gain, you guessed it, ultimate power.
