The Magus realized that with Warlock and a time machine, Thanos could prevent his very existence. He saw that Thanos had constructed a time-machine and was planning to send Warlock through it. The Magus learned of Thanos' involvement and used his astral senses to look into Sanctuary. Warlock and the others escaped the Knights and retreated to Thanos' ship, Sanctuary II. However, the Magus had reckoned without Thanos, who appeared as the Knights were attacking. The Magus planned for the Knights to keep Adam busy to escape the In-Betweener. The Magus then executed the Matriarch and ordered his Black Knights to attack Adam, Pip, and Gamora. The Magus blasted Adam with harmless radiation that would lead the In-Betweener to him within hours. Gamora sought to stop him but was pimp-slapped herself. Warlock attacked him, only The Magus toyed with him more until the moment to summon the In-Betweener. The Magus revealed that he knew of the Matriarch. Warlock refused to believe it for him, proving that he knew how events were going to unfold. The Magus confronted Warlock after the Magus easily defeated Warlock and told Warlock Warlock's future. The Magus taunted Adam that made him realize that he and the Magus were one and the same being. The Magus appeared to Warlock as a Big Glowing Head after 3 of his Inquisitors murdered a girl Warlock had sworn to protect. Finally, the Magus set out to bring about his own creation. Thus, the Magus ruled a theocratic empire for millennia. The survivors fell to worship him The Magus used their technology to build a fleet that spread the religion of The Universal Church of Truth throughout the galaxy. The inhabitants of Homeworld attacked him and were slaughtered. Warlock, calling himself the Magus, emerged from the cocoon with great powers and an afro. Finally, Warlock gave in to these 'truths', which resulted in him going insane.Ĭhaos and Order sent him before his time. Warlock sought refuge from these 'truths' in his cocoon, but they penetrated even there.

Rather, the true struggle is between purpose. Primarily, they taught him that there is no such thing as good and evil.

For centuries, Warlock was bombarded with Chaos and Order's 'dark secrets'.
