The villain not only survives the subsequent powerful attack while making both heroes look weak but reveals he's responsible for the massacre of «more worlds, more galaxies» than they've ever seen.

Ultimately, She-Hulk felt guilty for her ruling and later slaughter — and now she's confronting the Thanos-level villain responsible for the attack.
