Background

In this reality, Death was defeated by Life. A dying Captain Mar-Vel was seduced by the Many-Angled Ones into making a pact with them, who cured him of his cancer. He then convinced his closest allies and friends to join him, twisting and corrupting them. After which they killed the Avatar of Death (Thanos) in a ritual which destroyed that universe's cosmic aspect of Death. Resulting that Life itself became an Eldritch abomination. Without death to keep life in check, life grew like a cancerous tumor and absorbed all into itself. If something happened to destroy or "kill" a being in that reality, it would return to life.

This "eternal life" was fueled by the power of the Many-Angled Ones, and Lord Mar-Vel was the Avatar of Life within the Cancerverse. He was determined to spread the plague of undeath throughout the Multiverse, starting with the Prime Reality (Earth-616). Launching an invasion of that universe through a tear in it's reality (the Fault), they would have succeeded if not for the actions of that reality's Thanos and the Guardians of the Galaxy who brought their universe's Death into this reality, temporarily weakening it and crippling their invasion. As the entity Death had to return to her reality, the Cancerverse was able to recover.
