Because he was death's avatar introducing the presence of death back into the cancerverse. A special Kryptonite so to speak, much like Drax was Thanos's kryptonite. It has no bearing on anything outside of the plot for which it was intended.

Huh? I thought it was pretty clear that it was for the anti cancerverse factor. I never read anywhere that he could kill any immortal being anywhere regardless of the setting or the circumstances. Do you have any scans that support this position by any chance?
Originally posted by dmillsI don't need to. He killed unkillables on panel in a universe which didn't allow death. That to me is not only killing immortals but overriding laws which prevent death itself to exist there.

Keyword, there. Death exists in the 616, therefore the Sphinx still being immortal in a universe where Death exists makes your argument about Thanos "killing unkilliables" in a universe where Death has no presence completely redundant. It has no meaning outside of the context of how it occurred in TI.
Originally posted by dmillsSo you believe Death herself couldn't kill the Sphinx ? Are you being serious ? Just because you're an immortal and won't die naturally doesn't mean you can't be killed. That's ridiculous.

Ahhh... Going for good ol' obfuscation now eh? A tried and true KMC tactic.
Of course I'm not suggesting that the Sphinx > Death. But you know that. Thanos's ability to inflict permanent death on the cancerverse fodder was an affect of him being Death's avatar in a place where Death doesn't exist. So in other words, he brought Death with him into their universe. The cancerverse fodder weren't immortal based on some special innate power/ability to overcome death of their own accord. They were immortal as a byproduct of there being no death in their universe. Once Death was reintroduced into their dimension, they could die just just like anyone else.
Originally posted by dmillsYou're right they couldn't do so on their own accord the universe itself made the feat impossible until Thanos rolled up. The Spectre couldn't probably kill the Phantom Stranger because the universe wouldn't allow it. Thanos overcame what the universe wanted and was empowered by death. Her fate was tied to his. He had death's power so you agree Sphinx can be killed.

Death needed to kill Mar-vell in the ritual so the process of Death's removal or destruction could be destroyed.
