He-Who-Walks-Across-The-Worlds-of-Life-And-Death-Like-a-Colosssus, most known as Walker is a minor antagonist in the 1999 Captain Marvel series, serving as the main antagonist of the issues "Cheating Death" and "Who Let the Gods Out?". He is a death god from another galaxy who fell in love with Lady Death, but eventually turned into her enemy after she rejected his "gift"
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- He used his powers to kill every single of the billions if not trillions of living beings in his galaxy. He then absorbed their souls to offer them as a gift to Lady Death, even after she rejected him, he still kept the souls trapped and used them as a source of power, giving them a fate worse than the death.
- After Lady Death became repulsed by him due to this action he decided to kill her, while this could sound good at first as it would mean that nobody will die in Earth anymore, is pointed out in-universe that this not only would break the cycle of life, but also would mean that people trapped in what essentially could be seen as fates worse than the death; such as painful and incurable sicknesses would never be relieved or if someone were to have been through egregious tortures that should kill someone normally but wouldn't if Walker were to have gotten rid of Lady Death.
- Tried to torture Thanos for Lady Death's hiding, when he failed to overpower the titan he threatened to destroy Earth "molecule by molecule" if he didn't tell him, and most likely was willing to follow said threat.
- Upon finding Lady Death and her allies in Purgatory, he started to torture Rick Jones in order to make Lady Death surrender herself, first he used his powers to decompose Rick's arms and then cut it off himself, later he started to rapidly age him, which was clearly painful for him, he intended to continue this as long as he could.
- He attacked Marlo's ghost friend Lorraine and the ghosts of a crew of vikings who were friends of Thor when they were alive once they tried to defend their friends, while this only resulted in them reincarnating, his dialogue makes clear that he intended to completely erase them from existence.
- While his love for Lady Death likely was genuine at first, it clearly devolved into just an obsession later, to the point that he ended up being willing to hurt her if she wasn't going to be with him.
