After Infinity War, theres a big questionhow could anything possibly ever top a story that big? How about The Korvac Saga and a team-up between both the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy? Michael Korvac was a computer technician on an alternate Earth when it was conquered by the alien race known as the Badoon. Korvac betrayed the human race and was later punished by the Badoon for falling asleep when he should have been working by having his body grafted to a machine. Korvac later came across the Grandmaster and analyzed his cosmic powers, gaining new abilities for himself in the process. When journeying through time and space, Korvac came to our universe and discovered Galactus space station, becoming imbued with the Power Cosmic while downloading Galactus knowledge. Now practically a god, Korvac went to Earth with the goal of reshaping it into a utopia. Korvac is pursued by the Guardians of the Galaxy who then join forces with the Avengers and the Elder Gods of the universe also become involved, including the Collector. This story focused on the original Guardians of the Galaxy, who were quite different from the version we saw in the film and came from the future. But the Avengers: Earths Mightiest Heroes animated series did a version of the story using the new team as well as avoiding the use of Galactus. If the films take that route, we could see an adaptation of The Korvac Saga on the big screen, with the Avengers and the Guardians joining forces. And who doesnt want to see some interactions between those characters, especially Thor and Drax or Hulk and Groot?
