The Black Order was an elite team comprised of powerful individuals who were hired by the Collector, the head of the Tivan Group who became the new kingpin of the intergalactic underworld.
History[]
Working for the Collector[]
After Thanos had been persuaded by T'Challa to stop his campaign for balancing life in the universe, the Black Order began working for the Collector.[1]
Theft of the Embers of Genesis[]
Once arriving on Knowhere, Yondu Udonta and Nebula were escorted by Carina to be introduced to the Collector with T'Challa, who was hiding in the cargo. Proxima Midnight stopped them and scanned the cargo. Meanwhile, Black Dwarf and Corvus Glaive were alerted by Thanos and Korath the Pursuer, who were causing a riot. Midnight, Glaive, and Black Dwarf were alerted as T'Challa, Nebula, and Yondu initiated their plan to steal the Embers of Genesis.
Later on, T'Challa and the rest of the Ravagers would be "betrayed" by Nebula and were escorted by her and Glaive to a cell. Nebula would kill Glaive and free the rest of the Ravagers while T'Challa would be interrogated by the Collector. T'Challa would argue with the Collector, indirectly persuading Carina to betray the Collector, as the Collector ordered Ebony Maw to dissect T'Challa. However, T'Challa would break out of the cell using his Panther Habit necklace while Maw was demeaning Carina. Maw would try to trap T'Challa, but he would be killed by Carina as the two escaped the Collector's Museum.
Black Dwarf and Midnight would hunt down the Ravagers as they made their escape with the Embers of Genesis. Thanos would hold Black Dwarf, Midnight, and a group of Sakaarans back to let the others escape, but Nebula would help Thanos fight off Black Dwarf and Midnight as Black Dwarf consumed some of the embers, killing him. T'Challa and the rest of the Ravagers would escape as Knowhere was consumed by the embers.[1]
