History[]
Infinity War[]
Attack on Greenwich Village[]
In 2018, under orders from Thanos, Cull Obsidian and Ebony Maw went to Earth and arrived in New York City on their Q-Ship. They beamed themselves down to the street and Obsidian used his hammer to blast Iron Man down the street and into Washington Square Park. He chased after, using his hammer to destroy a nearby building and transformed it into a shield to block blasts from Iron Man. Obsidian eventually overpowered Iron Man and knocked him down into the grass, but before he could crush Stark with his hammer, Spider-Man intervened and effortlessly held the hammer back.
Obsidian used his hammer as a massive pair of pliers to trap Spider-Man and throw him away by the park's fountain. He continued to fight Iron Man, once again using the hammer to block his blasts and to strike him, although he could not break through Iron Man's shield. Obsidian then once again used the hammer as pliers, restraining Iron Manon the ground, but before he could land the final blow, he was forced through an Inter-Dimensional Portal created by Wong, stranding him in Antarctica.[1]
Battle of Wakanda[]
Obsidian was rescued by Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive and accompanied them to Wakanda. Upon joining the battle there, he violently struck War Machine with his hammer, causing him to fall onto the ground. Obsidian then used his hammer to kill several members of the Border Tribe and Jabari Tribe.
Obsidian then assisted Glaive against Vision, using his hammer to violently strike Vision, sending him flying deeper into the forest. He was then confronted by Bruce Banner in a Hulkbuster armor and used the hammer to take Banner with him for a one-to-one combat. Obsidian used his hammer with proficiency against Banner, managing to rip one of his armor's arms with his hammer. However, after Banner sent Obsidian flying into the protective dome, he died instantly, and the hammer was left behind.[1]
Alternate Reality Versions[]
Battle of Earth[]
Cull Obsidian, from an alternate 2014 timeline, was transported through the Multiverse using the Quantum Realm and brought into October 2023 of the main timeline. He then used his hammer during the battle at the ruins of the Avengers Compound. He attempted to strike Iron Man with the hammer but was stopped by Spider-Man and then killed by Giant-Man. Later, when Stark used the Infinity Stones, Obsidian's hammer disintegrated.[2]
Protecting Collector[]
In an alternate reality, Black Dwarf used his chain hammer to attack Thanos, who grabbed the hammer and smiled before punching him several times. However, Proxima Midnight stopped Thanos and gave herself and Dwarf the advantage, and Dwarf started repeatedly hitting Thanos with the chain hammer. He then stopped as Midnight prepared to execute Thanos.[3]
Zombie Apocalypse[]
In an alternate reality, Cull Obsidian prepared to use his chain hammer against Bruce Banner, but quickly became zombified. As a zombie, Obsidian prepared to attack Banner again, but was killed by ants.[4]
