There aren't many beings that can punch back when Hulk is the one doing the punching.

Sadly for the Avengers, Thanos was one of them.

Hulk was sent flying back, crashing into a building as the Mad Titan stood in the street of the now empty city, having been evacuated earlier.

Iron Man came in shooting a volley of missles, only for Thanos to come out unscathed and grab hold of Iron Man mid-air. He threw the armored hero at where Hawkeye and Black Widow were shooting at him from. Both spies had to jump off the billboard to avoid their teammate crashing into them.

Captain America's shield struck the side of Thanos' face. The Mad Titan grunted and looked to see the Captain hold his Shield as he charged at him.

Thanos tried to smash Captain America with his fist. The First Avenger dodged by rolling down the strike. However, as soon as he stood up, he had to raise his shield to block Thanos' fist from smashing him as the Mad Titan swung back. Captain America was knocked back, crashing into a nearby parked car.

"Have at thee!" Thor came in from the sky, swinging down his hammer.

Thanos simply raised his hand. The red gem on his golden gauntlet grew brightly, and he stopped Thor's attack easily by simply grabbing the hammer. Before the God of Thunder can do anything, Thanos punched him with enough strength to send him crashing through a nearby building.

"Pathetic," Thanos groaned, looking at the struggling heroes around him as his armies fought the rest of Earth's heroes in the back. "I hardly used one Infinity Stone. This is a waste of time. Perhaps I should use all six and end it already," raising his Gauntlet to highlight his threat, the Mad Titan grinned at the downed heroes.

Suddenly, a high pitched horn was heard as a mini scooter drove into the battlefield. Everyone, even Thanos, watched in confusion as the scooter kept going until it stopped in front of the Mad Titan.

"Pizza man!" The Mask, wearing the clothes of a pizza delivery guy, stepped off the scooter, holding a Pizza box in one hand and a notebook in the other. "Are you," the Mask looked closely to the notebook. "Thanks, the Moody Titan?"

Thanos growled. "It is Thanos, the Mad Titan!"

"Uh-huh, that's what I said!" The Mask held the box forward and opened it. "Here's your pizza!"

Thanos looked into the content inside the box and groaned. "I said no onions!"

"Hey, hey, hey! I don't make these, I just bring 'em to ya. Tell you what? I'll give you a coupon for thirty percent off on the next pizza, okay?" The Mask said, offering a coupon.

Thanos groaned. "Very well. However! You shall not receive any tip!" Thanos pulled out a wallet and paid the Mask before accepting the pizza and coupon.

As he held them, realisation slowly downed on him. Fury covered Thanos' face as he threw the pizza and coupon before grabbing the Mask by the throat.

"Why you insufferable, little-"

*Ding!*

Sudden, a loud bell rung through the area and Thanos found himself standing in a boxing ring. As the fighting in the back stopped to see what's going on, a clone of the Mask came in wearing the clothes of a referee.

"Alright! Break it up! Break it up, you two!" The clone separated the Mask from the Thanos' hold and pushed them apart. "You heard the bell! Both of you go to your corners, now!"

Thanos grumbled but did as he was told, as did the Mask. Sitting in a tiny chair on the corner, Thanos raised his hands and rested them on the robes.

"You're doing great, slick!" The Mask appeared behind Thanos, wearing the clothes of a coach with a balding head of black hair. "You have him right where you want him," The Mask began messaging Thanos' shoulders. "He's fast and tiny but bruises like a flower. A few good punches outta take 'em out, and that belt is yours! Let's just remove all this extra weight."

The Mask then went to remove Thanos' armour and helmet, leaving him in a black pair of boxing shorts.

"Ya ain't gonna win with that shabby glove, slick," the Mask commented, pointing at the Infinity Gauntlet before offering a pair of boxing gloves. "Here you go, slick, these are better for ya!"

Thanos took off the Infinity Gauntlet and handed it to the Mask before taking the boxing gloves and putting them on. "Thanks, coach."

"I'm tellin' ya, Slick, you're definitely gonna win this!" The Mask put away the Infinity Gauntlet and offered a bottle of water with a straw to Thanos, who took a drink and spat in the bucket outside the ring.

Suddenly, a light came on, shining on the referee Mask clone. A microphone lowered from somewhere and he took hold of it.

"Are you all ready to RRRRRRUMBLE!?" His question was met with a round of cheers from both the heroes and Thanos' forces. "In this corner," the referee pointed at Thanos' side. "We have the young and coming-up star! Weighting over two thousand pounds of purple muscles! He's been called the Mad Titan! The conqueror of Planets! And, on some occasions, the Purple Nurple! We have... THAAAANOOOOOOS!"

All I Do Is Win began playing in the background. Thanos stood and raised both fists as his forces cheered while the heroes' booed. He flexed his back to show off a large tattoo of Lady Death in a bikini to the crowd.

"And in this corner," the referee pointed to there other side, where the Mask, who was only wearing a pair of red boxing shorts and gloves, stood. "We have the current holder of the championship belt! The who refuses to tell us his weight because of his self-consciousness! He's been called Green Faced Weirdo! The Crazy Moron! And Let Me Go You Crazy Freak! You know 'em, you love 'em. The MAAAAAAAASK!"

The Next Episode began playing in the background. The Mask sood up and began waving his joined hands together, his usual grin wide. Thanos' forces obviously began booing, while the Heroes cheered for no reason other than the fact he was Thanos' opponent.

As both of them stepped forward, the referee stood in the middle. "Now, boys, I want a good clean fight. You're both respectable gentleman and have equal chance of winning, so start as soon as you hear the bell, got it!" Both of them nodded. The referee stepped back and immediately turned around, going under the robes of the ring, he leaned closer to Rocket Racoon and began whispering. "Put all my money on the purple one. My house, too. My wife, the kids, everything. All of it!"

The Mask and Thanos raised their fists and got ready. Not long after that, the bell was rang.

*Ding!*

"Alright, bring it on! Bring it on, newbie!" The Mask challenged, throwing mock punches. "Show me what you-"

Thanos cut him off with a punch that sent the Mask's head flying back a few feet, stretching his neck. When his head came back, he was missing a couple teeth, and his eyes were spinning.

The Mask chuckled weakly. "Is that the best you can-"

Thanos cut him off again with an upwards punch that sent him flying back to the robes of the ring. Stretching the robes quite the distance off the ring, the Mask was slung back to Thanos and smashing flat into his chest.

The Mask pulled himself off Thanos and inflated back to normal. "Haha... ha... Still standing!" The Mask declared, his head spinning. Thanos punched him in the face again, and when he pulled back his fist from the Mask, the green faced man had blond, neatly combed hair. "I can do this... all day!" Another punch and the Mask's face returned to normal. "Do you know the muffi-" Another punch, and this time, the Mask had long brown hair and eyelashes. "You wouldn't hit a lady, would yo-" Another punch.

The Mask's face returned to normal. He spun around a few times before stopping to shake his head. Standing back straight and facing Thanos, he got into stance and reeled back his fist... only to fall backwards unconscious, with little birds flying around his head.

"One!" The referee came in and began counting at the Mask. "Two! Three! Four! Five! Six! Seven! Eight! Nine! Ten!"

*Ding Ding Ding!*

"We have a winner!" The referee held the mic in one hand and raised one of the Thanos' arms in the other. "The new, heavy, heavy, REAL HEAVY weight champion or the world! THAAAANOOOOOOS!"

Thanos screamed in victory. Raising both hands as his troops cheered in the crowd. The Mad Titan felt invincible... Until he remembered what was really going on.

His eyes widened as he immediately looked back to see the Mask, now wearing his usual yellow suit and the Infinity Gauntlet.

"I hereby declare!" The Mask raised the Infinity Gauntlet and got ready to snap his fingers. "That you all become dust!"

*Snap!*

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Thanos cried out, not unlike a stereotypical villain.

... Only for nothing to happen. Everyone looked around in confusion. The Mask looked at the Gauntlet and snapped his fingers again, but nothing happened.

Turning it around, he looked at the stones. "Oh, oooooh!" He began chuckling while smacking his forehead. "Silly me, I had the stones on backwards," he looked at Thanos. "Do you mind...?"

"Ah, no, go ahead," Thanos politely offered the Mask to correct his mistake.

The Mask took out the stones and placed them back in their correct position. "Right, now where was I? Oh right," Raising his hand again, The Mask yelled, "Become dust!"

*Snap!*

"NOOOOOOOO-" Thanos cried out before he, and his troops, vanished into dust in the wind.

"Oh, my," The Mask suddenly fell back on a piece of debris, looking entirely drained. "Glove... too... strong."

"Hang in there!" Iron Man landed near him and took off the Gauntlet off the Mask, throwing it to Thor to hold.

"I'm not gonna make it," the Mask said dramatically, coughing for appearance.

"Yes, you will, Soldier, just hold on," Captain America came in running, standing at the other side of the Mask.

"Listen, listen, come here!" The Mask requested weakly, and both heroes knelt down. "Tell my mama... oh, wait, she's dead," the Mask then pointed at Iron Man. "Tell your mama..." He stopped before slowly turning to Captain America. "Tell YOUR mama..." He stopped again and just put his hand down. "Tell SOMEONE'S mama... I love her," he coughed violently and began slowly leaning back. "And!" Suddenly, he sprung forward again. "Tell the people in Disney to stop making white characters black... no one believes... it helps... with diversity," he barely could finish as he began leaning back and closing his eyes. "And!!" He sprung forward again. "Tell Elon Musk that... no one... not a single person... calls it 'X' instead of... Twitter."

The Mask slowly leaned back and closed his eyes, laying completely without motion. The surrounding heroes looked in grief... before clapping and whistling was heard.

The Mask suddenly stood up, completely fine, and stepped in front of a podium. "Thank you! Thank you all for this great honor!" The Mask held a prize with his hands. "But I really couldn't have done it without this guy right here," he pointed at Iron Man. "So, give it up for Robert Downy Jr- I mean, Iron Man!"

The spotlight suddenly shined brightly on Iron Man, who awkwardly stepped forward in confusion. He shook hands with the Mask, who gave him the trophy, and stepped in front of the podium. "Well, uh... I guess I'm... honored?" Iron Man began. "I guess it all comes down to... Wait a minute," Iron Man then realised something.

There was no crowd.

Looking around, he saw no sign of the Mask. The surrounding heroes also looked around in confusion.

"Okay, seriously, what just happened?" Hawkeye asked.

"You know what?" Iron Man looked at the trophy before throwing it away. "You guys handle the rest," he began walking away. "I'm gonna go home and do something I really should do more often."

"And that is...?" Captain America questioned.

"Take off the suit, sit down, and actually take it easy."
