The Infinity Crusade - Atop the Fourth Wall

Welcome to Atop the Fourth Wall, where bad comics burn. In this episode, Event Comics Month 5 continues with the end of the Infinity Trilogy!

Originally released August 7th, 2024

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: Honestly more like an Infinity "stand around and wait for God to do their thing."

[ATW]

For those asking about Ben Grimm being Jewish, that was apparently never explicit until 2002 (unless there were past references to it that I'm not aware of).

[shadowldrago]

I do think Mephisto getting outsmarted by such an obvious loophole to be hilarious and very fitting. For as much as he loves tricking others and making them miserable by abusing loopholes of his own, he's so *desperate* for a taste of real power and so convinced of his own infallibility that it makes him ever so vulnerable to getting outsmarted. It’s very funny.

“You said you wanted a cosmic cube. You never specified you wanted a functional one.” Admit that’s the biggest troll movie Thanos can pull.

[juhaniaho]

28:26 ”The Goddess-tron has fallen! I, Pipscream, now rule over the Paradise Omega-cons!”

[tannerprice]

27:46 “The Silver Surfer is once again, his own man!”

HE IS HIS OWN MAN!! *(PUNCH)*

[cowboyquebecanimations]

You know, the last time a cosmic egg was involved, it revealed an evil ooze man in purple

[DawnOfTheOzz]

Goddess: I have created the Cosmic Egg!
Captain America: It's only a model.
Moondragon: Shhhh!

[mtdeeley]

Suprised Linkara didn't do a "I AM MY OWN MAN!" punch.

[rockettauros]

A god who wants to bring order, a faction that wants to preserve free will and has a demon named Mephisto as a member, a momentary 4th wall break, and a Cosmic Egg.

Hot damn, I didn't know Marvel and Shin Megami Tensei had a company crossover.

"The Cosmic cube can do anything!"

Can it undo One More Day and make Spider-Man comics good again?

...

"The Cosmic Cube can do ALMOST anything!"

[azninja]

1:04 Considering there were five Cosmic Cubes its more like
"THE COSMIC CUBE CAN DO ANYTHING!
THE COSMIC CUBE CAN DO ANYTHING!
THE COSMIC CUBE CAN DO ANYTHING!
THE COSMIC CUBE CAN DO ANYTHING!
THE COSMIC CUBE CAN DO ANYTHING!"

[Rixec]

Mephisto: THE COSMIC CUBE CAN'T DO ANYTHING!

Thanos: Bummer. Want a Hostess Fruit Pie?

Mephisto:

[undead]

Thanos tricking Mephisto with the age old method of deception:

“Batteries not included”

[mightyfilm]

At least Adam Warlock split into different beings, and NONE of them asked "What are eat?" "How am clothes?" and "Tell me of this bathed room of which you speak."

[the_exegete]

I love that the Absorbing Man is swinging his wrecking ball while on his way to surrender peacefully.

[Wanderingsage]

Eternity: this won't affect me.
*Later*
'oh no it affected me!'

[mesektet]

I'm not saying they were wrong, but they should probably have taken a little more doubt. I mean when Mephisto is backing you, that's the ultimate - "A-are we the baddies?" alarm, folks.

[Theokal]

"Pip the Troll just became king of the Universe!"

Well at least it's not Troll from Image comic :p then we would truly be screwed.

[JustHayden]

"This is my buddy, The Bulk."

"Though I'm thinking of introducing him to my other buddy, The Skull."

[briancoulombe]

I’m still kind of amazed that Adam warlock didn’t show up in the MCU until after Thanos was dead. The guy is kind of a huge part of the infinity events.
