Background[]
Comics[]
Ebony Maw is one of the members of Thanos' Black Order. His allegiances may be unclear, but Ebony Maw’s ambitions are not to be doubted. As a henchman of Thanos, Maw can manipulate anyone to bend to his – or Thanos' – will. His powers have the ability to cause trouble for both sides of a battle.
MCU[]
Ebony Maw was a member of the Black Order and an adoptive son of Thanos. Gifted with powers of telekinesis, Maw was deeply loyal to Thanos and gave warnings of his power across the galaxy while assisting in the search for the Infinity Stones. Having assisted with wiping out half the Asgardians, both Maw and Cull Obsidian were instructed to locate the Time Stone, leading to Maw capturing Doctor Strange and torturing him in order to obtain the Stone. However, Maw was killed when Iron Man ejected Maw from his ship into outer space before rescuing Strange.
In 2023, Nebula traveled back in time to 2014 to obtain the Power Stone, inadvertently causing her younger form, then allied with Thanos, to gain knowledge of the future. This past version of Maw, along with Thanos and the rest of his army, were sent forward in time, where he participated in the Battle of Earth where he was killed by Iron Man after he snapped his fingers to wipe out all of Thanos' forces.
Notes[]
- Ebony Maw has hair in the comics, as well as in the movie, Avengers: Infinity War.
