Space. Thanos and his followers Corvus Glaive, Proxima Midnight, Ebony Maw and Cull Obsidian attack the Asgardians’ ship and defeat Thor and Hulk. Thanos tortures Thor to force Loki to surrender the Space Stone, while Hulk transforms back into Bruce Banner, who is teleported to Earth by Heimdall before he is executed by Glaive. Loki feigns loyalty to Thanos and attempts to stab him, but is overpowered and strangled to death. Thanos then uses the Power Stone, which he has stolen from planet Xandar, to destroy the ship, leaving Thor to die in the explosion.
Earth. Banner crashes into the Sanctum Sanctorum in New York City and is found by Doctor Strange and Wong, who contact Iron Man for help. Ebony Maw and Cull Obsidian arrive in search of the Time Stone in Doctor Strange’s possession. Ebony Maw abducts Doctor Strange, while Iron Man fights Cull Obsidian with help from Spider-Man. Wong teleports him to the Arctic, and Iron Man and Spider-Man then infiltrate Ebony Maw’s warship, where Strange is being tortured. Iron Man blasts a hole in the ship’s hull, causing Ebony Maw to be sucked out and suffocate in the vacuum of space. The trio decides to follow the warship’s coordinates to Thanos’ derelict homeworld Titan in order to defeat him before he reaches Earth. Wong leaves to defend the Sanctum, while Banner, who is unable to transform into the Hulk, calls Captain America for help.
Space. Thor is found and rescued by the Guardians of the Galaxy, who are investigating Xandar’s destruction, and learns that Thanos intends to rebalance the universe by using the Infinity Stones to wipe out half the Universe. He rallies Rocket and Groot to accompany him to Nivadellir to procure a weapon capable of killing Thanos, while Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax and Mantis proceed to Knowhere to protect the Reality Stone. Gamora reveals that she knows the secret location of the Soul Stone, and that said knowledge must be kept from Thanos at all costs.
