===Black Order and Thanos' Quest===
====Freeing Thanos====
After plundering many worlds across the cosmos in the name of Thanos, Proxima Midnight and the Black Order arrived at a space super prison where Thanos was imprisoned, to free him and continue their galactic conquest. She alongside her teammates Corvus Glaive, Supergiant and Black Dwarf entered the prison while Ebony Maw was waiting on the Sanctuary II.
After Supergiant mind-controled a guard to open the doors, Black Dwarf activated the alarm by beating the guard, causing many other guards arrived to fight them. Glaive easily defeated all of them, to which Midnight said they were wasting their time, and that Thanos was not patient. Supergiant then controled another guard who opened the doors until Thanos' confinement capsule.
Knowing about the traps, Midnight asked to Dwarf to activate them, in order to analyze the performance. Dwarf took the guard and threw him near to the capsule, who was completely disintegrated by the laser cannons. Midnight then threw her spear and telekinetically controled it to destroy the upper cannons, at the same time Glaive destroyed the bottom ones. Glaive reached the capsule while Supergiant flew to it, Dwarf took Midnight by his side and jumped to it. As the capsule was designed to fall into the Sun it orbited, its supports gave way and it began to fall towards the Sun. The capsule and the Black Order fell into their ship, in which Maw was already waiting. As Maw opened the capsule, Thanos laughed seeing that he was finally free, while all the Black Order revered him.Avengers Assemble Season 2 Episode 25: New Frontiers
====Invasion of New Korbin====
Shortly after Thanos' release, Thanos went to invade New Korbin along with the Black Order. While he absorbed the power of the Quantum Force Pyramid, the Black Order plundered the planet taking its resources and everything that served them aboard the Sanctuary II. However, a Korbinite went looking for the Avengers on his ship, a few galaxies away.
After the Korbinite returned with the Avengers, the team began fighting the Outriders and helping the inhabitants on the surface. Proxima Midnight then appeared throwing her spear at a building near the Avengers, which exploded and attracted their attention. Midnight asked who dared interfere with her master's mission, as her spear returned to her hand. After Iron Man talked to her, Midnight said that she knew about the Avengers and was not impressed, ordering the Outriders to attack them. Thor then tried to hit her with his hammer, however Midnight easily dodged it and said that hopefully he was not the strongest Earth had to offer. Midnight then jumped on Thor, dodging also the returning Mjölnir, and kicked him to the ground.
Midnight later broke down a rock bridge with her spear, and told them that the universe would soon bow before Thanos. Iron Man mocked and began to fire at her, however Proxima dodged the attack with a giant jump. From mid air Midnight threw her spear at them, directing it towards Captain America, who was thrown far away by the blow to his vibranium shield.
Midnight then got to where Captain America was and continued to fight him. In the middle of the fight, the Captain was attacked by Hawkeye, who was mind-controlled by Supergiant. The arrows that hit the ground released a green gas that prevented Steve from visualizing Midnight. Moving stealthily, Midnight told him that this was the only power he needed to worry about, giving him a sharp blow with her spear. Captain America was thrown far away, crashing through and landing on the building where Dar Mal Goth and his mother were hiding.
