His ship had been brought under attack from one of Thanos spaceships during flight in space. The monstrous Reptyl knocking out Primo on boarding of his ship. When he was roused later, he was before Thanos himself, and was offered a deal to receive great power in return for servitude. He would become Thano's second member of his pantheon after Reptyl. Primo accepted and was infused and transformed with power, and dubbed himself the God of Fire.  
     
    Not long after his transformation, Thanos ship is attacked by a contingent of Eternals, lead by Thanos brother Starfox. While Thanos sees to his brother Starfox, Primo and Reptyl tackle the group of Eternals, wounding and killing many. They return to Thanos and a weakened Starfox before simultaneously striking him. His next task appointed by Thanos is to locate and hunt down the Celestial Messiah Sequoia. Primo and Reptyl locate the boy, who also is known as Quoi, and they confront him and his new companion Raptra. Primo is defeated by Quoi who absorbs his source of power, briefly extinguishing him, but Reptyl manages to persist against Raptra's laser gun, knocking down Quoi, their fate sealed when the mad titan Thanos shows up himself.
