Plot: In order to prevent The Fault from consuming the universe. Adam Warlock had to graft a separate timeline onto our own. However, the only one he could reach in time was the future in which he would become the Magus... a timeline he'd worked hard to ensure would never come to pass.

Star-Lord, Mantis, Jack FLag and Bug are rescued from the Magus' Universal Church of Truth by Kang. He's recruited the Starhawks of the many timelines who have already fallen to the Magus in an attempt to fight his influence over the future. The Magus is causing all future timestreams to merge, ensuring his reign.

But these four Guardians of the Galaxy are anomalies that he can't foresee. Kang plans to send them back in time to the moment that Adam became the Magus. Armed with a Cosmic Cube, he tells them that they have to do whatever it takes to stop the Magus.

Plot: The detonation of the Inhumans' T-Bomb has torn a massive fissure through space and time. Starlord's warning from the far future has arrived too late to prevent it. But they might be in time to prevent the end of the universe. Most of the remaining Guardians head to Attilan, where they work to save the Inhumans' city from the rift (while rubbing in the fact that they warned the Inhumans that this would happen). Adam Warlock arrives with the Universal Church of Truth, preparing a spell that should prevent the Fault from expanding any further. But betrayal from one of the Guardians leads to grave consequences for the galaxy.
