The Avengershave had to battle many alien invasion . From Skrulls to the Kree Empire to Thanos , the lean of worldwide scourge is pretty long . But even Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes did n’t make love what to do when they encountered a baddie who wanted to … make the entire planet his girlfriend ?

Yes , weird as this might sound , inMarvel Adventures : avenger # 12,Earth produce an unwished-for sojourn fromEgo The Living Planet . Fans of the MCU movieGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2may call up that in the MCU , Ego is a Celestial who could take on human form ( Kurt Russell ) and ended up seducing Peter “ Star - Lord ” Quill ’s mother and fathering Peter .

The chronicle , titled “ Ego , The LOVING Planet , ” had Earth experience a number of sudden innate disasters , from tornados to rock slides to massive storms and tidal waves . The Avengers manage to protect the civilians from the brunt of the cataclysm but soon determine they ’re all being due to a monolithic planetoid approach Earth , whose gravitational line of business is disrupting the Earth ’s ecosystem . Even weirder , Bruce Banner determines that the minor planet is a living planet with a cognisance of its own , known as Ego .

hope to battle the new threat , the Avengers take an interstellar - subject Quinjet into place . Once in range of Ego , Banner uses a sophisticated translation program to try and pass along with the planetoid . However , the transcriber picks up some rather … strange dialog from Ego .

call on out , Ego ’s something of a piece - up creative person in this existence . see Earth as his belated conquest ( of the loving variety ) , he rabbit on out cheesy lines like , “ I was just cruisin ’ through your little system of rules here and I said to myself : ‘ Who is that ok down in the mouth number three over there sportin ’ the ice caps ? ’ ” ( One can much hear the saxophones wail in the background ) .

resolve that it ’s time to show Ego that Earth is n’t interested in being a prize girlfriend , Wolverine throw Banner out of the Quinjet , stimulate Bruce to transubstantiate into the Hulk and commence smashing Ego ’s surface . The other Avengers lurch in , but all they manage to do is jumpstart some active volcanos that giveEgo some dyspepsia in his southern cerebral hemisphere .

As Ego continues intrude on Earth ’s personal distance , however , he regard all the cities and living organism on Earth ’s airfoil . repel that Earth is “ infested ” with creepy-crawly bugs , Ego quickly turns tail and heads for Saturn , saying , “ Ooh , yeah . Now who is healthy number 6 over there , flashin ’ all that bling ? A - hem . ” render to Earth , the Avengers enjoy a victory parade – but determine not to assure the world leaders that they only won because Ego remember their planet establish him Pediculus corporis .

Having theAvengersbattle an Ego who ’s an intergalactic lounge lizard is definitely one ofMarvel escapade : Avengers’weirder moves , but strangely enough , it works . Ego has always been , as his name suggests , a ego - take in planet obsessed with his own selfish gain , and becoming a universe hopping clean - up creative person is actually completely in theatrical role for him . This Ego might not be as threatening as his MCU counterpart … but he ’s definitely a draw creepier .
