How powerful Death is compared to the gods of Thanos and Marvel

Death, one of Marvel's most powerful characters, has been confirmed as MCU canon Agatha all the timewhich raises the question of how powerful she is compared to Thanos and Marvel's gods. Agatha all the time follows the titular witch and her coven as they traverse Witch Street in search of a blessing at the end. Agatha's coven consists of witches who specialize in various forms of witchcraft, including divination and alchemy. The series is a worthy addition to the MCU's horror offerings, as disturbing trials, the Seven of Salem, and death itself contribute to the spirit of Halloween.

The impact of Thanos' arch-villain in the Infinity Saga is still being felt midway through the MCU's Multiverse Saga. His unstoppable pursuit of the Infinity Stones gave him the power of a god that cannot be underestimated, as he was able to decimate half of all life in the universe with the snap of his fingers after acquiring all six Infinity Stones. In Marvel Comics, Thanos' death trade on a cosmic scale was aimed at courting death itself. These motifs give a hint as to what the MCU can expect from Death after he emerges five years after Thanos' defeat.

Rio Vidal is confirmed as the MCU's cause of death

The revelation came after several tips

Aubrey Plaza's Rio Vidal was featured in the first episode of Agatha all the time as a character with whom Agatha is very familiar. From then on, she plays a secret role, communicating primarily with Agatha, as it becomes increasingly clear that the two share a romantic and somewhat turbulent history. Several clues point to Rio Vidal being the litter of death itself Agatha all the time. These include the following:

• Rio joins the coven on the witches' journey over Sharon Davis' grave, explaining that she “was nearby” when he was called shortly after the tragedy.
• Rio tells Agatha that she “their bodies” during the second Witches' Road trial.
• Agatha tells Rio “Not“When it looks like Billy is close to death.
• Rio laughs when the third trial's Ouija board mentions death.

Agatha all the time Episode 7 finally confirms this suspicion. Lilia already meets death in the tunnels under Witch Street Your tarot reading confirms that death is part of the circle. Rio supposedly takes on the role of the Green Witch in Agatha's coven, a role cynically assigned to Sharon Davis despite her lack of magical know-how. When asked about her Green Witch credentials, Rio replies that she “The“Green Witch – suggesting that she is the original entity to fill such a role, which makes sense given Death's comic book origins.

Death Comics Origin and Powers Explained

Death is the personification of an abstract concept

Death is an abstract creature in Marvel Comics. This includes the personification of abstract concepts such as time (eternity), space (infinity), order (master order) and chaos (lord chaos). These entities are original, with Death and the above-mentioned beings were brought into existence at the beginning of timewhile others like Living Tribunal and Oblivion are even older. Death is the offspring of Oblivion, the abstract being that represents non-existence in the Marvel Universe. As an abstract concept, Death has no gender, although it most commonly manifests itself as a female Lady of Death. Their powers can be easily summed up.

Almost omnipotence

Death transcends reality and is therefore capable of manifesting pretty much anything she wants. However, this power is significantly limited by the fact that Death is largely unconcerned with achieving anything other than his goal, although he has occasionally interfered in the affairs of mortals. Demonstrations of her omnipotence include assuming her chosen form and teleporting individuals to other realms. Their power is rivaled only by other abstract entities such as the Living Tribunal and the Beyonder, both of which have been shown to have the ability to kill Death itself.

Control over all death

Death's main power is to oversee death in the universe in which he liveswhich means claiming souls from bodies and exercising dominion over lost souls in their own realm of death. Death is also capable of bringing a soul back to life, which it has done a few times before but doesn't make a habit of doing. Should Death die, which has happened thanks to the afterlife, then all death in the universe comes to a halt and threatens to overpopulate it, ironically lending credence to Thanos' MCU motives.

Death, along with other original Marvel gods, represents the natural order of things in the Marvel Universe. Its lesser-known counterpart is life, although death is more often portrayed as the enemy of eternity. Death has played a significant role in Marvel Comics, not least thanks to Thanos' affection for her, although she also had a romance with Deadpool, who thereby becomes Thanos' love rival.

Death would eventually retire from Marvel Comics and Marlo Chandler would take over her responsibilities. Recently, she also developed a desire to live among humans, but this culminated in Thanos tracking her down, completely defeating her, and turning her into the Death Stone, which he keeps. With Death in this form, Death continues to act as a natural force throughout the Marvel Universe.

How powerful Death is compared to other MCU characters

The power of death transcends all but the most obscure MCU characters

Death is more powerful than most MCU characters. As an abstract entity, Death is rivaled only by the most powerful cosmic beings in the universe – very few of which have been seen in the MCU to date. Eternity is one of the few other beings to physically manifest in the MCU Thor: Love and Thunderwhile others like the Living Tribunal and Entropy have appeared as statues and effigies in various MCU episodes. It remains unclear whether Loki can count himself among these beings now that he maintains the entire multiverse in a space outside of time.

This means that Rio Vidal is easily the most menacing character the MCU has ever seen. While eternity exists in another realm, ruling over time itself and granting wishes to the first person who finds it, Death likes to get his hands dirty and interfere with mortals infinitely less powerful than himself. This is shown by the deals that she apparently concludes with Agatha, it says Agatha all the time Episode 4″You get your strength and I get my bodies.” Obviously, the motives for the MCU's demise aren't exactly impartial.

The fact that Thanos recently defeated Death in Marvel Comics raises the question of whether he could do the same in the MCU with a fully equipped Infinity Gauntlet. Others”Gods“Like the Asgardians, they would have little chance against death, since they owe their divinity more to their Asgardian physiology and magical abilities than to their originality. Agatha all the time This may be why he debuted the most powerful actively participating MCU character ever to appear on screen. Whether her active role will continue beyond the series remains to be seen, but as long as MCU characters die, death will always be looming.

Agatha Harkness tries to regain her magical powers after the events of WandaVision. She teams up with unexpected allies, including the son of an old adversary, fights against new mystical threats and uncovers hidden secrets in the magical realm.
