Thanos Rising is a five-issue comic book limited series published by Marvel Comics that debuted on April 3, 2013, as part of Marvel NOW!. The series, written by Jason Aaron with artwork by Simone Bianchi, focuses on the origins of the supervillain Thanos.

A Thanos origin story was first announced by Marvel Comics in July 2012 under the title Thanos: Son of Titan with the creative team of writer Joe Keatinge and artist Richard Elson,[1] but was canceled prior to its planned release in the summer of 2012 and the creative team moved over to Morbius: The Living Vampire.[2] In January 2013 Marvel Comics released a one-word teaser image stating Birth, including the creative team of Jason Aaron and Simone Bianchi. A week later, Marvel officially announced Thanos Rising to the press with a target publication date of April 2013
