Thanos told Doctor Strange that Titan ignored his warnings and paid the ultimate price. But Infinity War leaves behind a much bigger mystery: what actually happened to his homeworld?
Peter Quill tells us Titan is eight degrees off its axis and its gravitational pull is unstable. The planet itself is a graveyard. And while Thanos explains the crisis that threatened his people—and the horrifying solution they rejected—he never tells us the full story of their downfall.
In this episode of Marvel Maniac, Eric digs into the fall of Titan, Thanos’ own version of history, his years of conquest, the unanswered role of Eros, and one big theory: what if Titan wasn’t simply the tragedy that created Thanos? What if Thanos helped create the tragedy that destroyed Titan?
Plus: how old is Thanos, where did Titan’s population go, and does the Mad Titan deserve an MCU origin movie?
Maybe Titan didn’t prove Thanos was right. Maybe Titan was the first place Thanos went wrong.
