History:
Death is an abstract entity, the embodiment of the end of life in the Marvel Universe, and the opposite of Eternity, the embodiment of time.[1]

The character appears sporadically throughout the Marvel universe. The entity appears in the title War Is Hell and forces soldier John Kowalski to undergo a number of lives and deaths as punishment for doing nothing to prevent the invasion of Poland,[2] with Kowalski eventually becoming an aspect of Death;[3] in the title Ghost Rider posing as "Death Ryder" to test Johnny Blaze[4] and becoming fascinated with the Titan Thanos.

An elaborate storyline in the title Captain Marvel showcases Thanos' scheme to conquer the universe, as the character becomes determined to prove his love for Death by destroying all life. Although Thanos obtains the artifact the Cosmic Cube and succeeds in taking control of the universe, Death abandons the character when he is defeated by the combined might of Captain Marvel; Drax the Destroyer and the Avengers.[5] Two Marvel Annuals feature Thanos as he tries to "woo" Death back (courtesy of the Infinity Gems with which he plans to extinguish every star in the galaxy), but the character is killed in a final battle with the Avengers; Captain Marvel and Adam Warlock.[6] When Captain Marvel is dying from cancer, Thanos returns to the character in a vision and introduces him to the entity Death. Marvel willingly surrenders his life and embraces the entity.[7]

In Marvel's first limited series, Contest of Champions, Death is coerced into a game of strategy by the Elder of the Universe the Grandmaster. The Grandmaster wins the game and forces Death to resurrect the Collector,[8] a fellow Elder. The Grandmaster then takes his place in the Realm of the Dead.[9] In the limited series Secret Wars II the entity the Beyonder takes human form and visits Earth. It decides to "save" mankind, and in doing so destroys Death, but is then shown there is a need for Death and recreates the entity.[10]

In an Avengers Annual the Grandmaster reveals his sacrifice was a ruse as he is able to steal Death's powers and via another deception tricks the entity into banishing all Elders from the Realm of the Dead, effectively rendering them immortal.[11] The threads of this storyline continue in the title Silver Surfer, as Death does not forget the manipulation and wipes three Elders - the Astronomer; Possessor and Trader - from existence when they attempt to disrupt the cosmic balance by attempting to kill fellow cosmic entity Galactus.[12]

The limited series The Thanos Quest reveals that Death perceives an imbalance in the universe and a gradual shift towards life rather than death, the entity resurrects Thanos. Thanos successfully collects the Infinity Gems, and as a now omnipotent being, attempts to converse with Death. The irony is the character is now superior to Death, and as such Death may not speak with him (a fact relayed via one of Death's minions).[13] The story continues in a consecutive limited series, the Infinity Gauntlet, in which Thanos then wipes half the beings in the universe from existence as proof of his love for Death, and the entity remains and watches as he battles the cosmic pantheon and Earth's metahumans. Death departs when Thanos is finally defeated.[14]

The mercenary Deadpool is depicted having a humorous exchange with the entity in a self-titled Annual. Deadpool is shown becoming infatuated with Death after a number of near-death experiences.[15] During the Funeral for a Freak storyline, Death appears to reciprocate the feeling, and a jealous Thanos prevents Deadpool from dying and joining the entity.[16] In the second volume of Captain Marvel, Death reunites with Thanos to confront the Death God Walker, who tries unsuccessfully to court Death. Death hides within the body of Marlo Chandler, the girlfriend of Rick Jones, in an attempt to escape Walker. The entity eventually destroys Walker and then leaves the body of Marlo, although Marlo retains a small fraction of Death's power.[17]

The limited series Avengers: Celestial Quest continues to explore the relationship between Death and Thanos, as the entity reveals to Thanos that their energies merged when he was resurrected, creating an offspring called the Rot. Death and Thanos work together to destroy their offspring, and it is at this time that Death finally addresses Thanos and admits to feeling "love" for him.[18] The pair also share a kiss in the limited series Marvel:The End, moments before Thanos, possessing the artifact the Heart of the Universe, recreates the universe minus a critical flaw that would have destroyed it.[19]

During the limited series Annihilation, Thanos joins the fight to stop the Annihilation Wave, and during the war is killed by his old foe Drax the Destroyer. When the hero Nova is near death from injuries sustained in battle, he glimpses Death and Thanos standing together watching him.[20] The second volume of the Guardians of the Galaxy features a new development: Phyla-Vell, the heroine Quasar, agrees to become the new avatar of Death in exchange for the freedom of lover Heather Douglas.[21]

Abillities:
Death possesses the power to achieve virtually any effect. Being an abstract entity, Death has no physical body, but usually appears in a male humanoid form so it can be perceived by lesser beings. Death resides inside a pocket dimension known as the Realm of Death, which also houses the Infinity Well, containing the knowledge of the universe.
