Alvin's good mood vanished at the sight of Thanos...
He knew there was no point worrying, but the pressure Thanos brought with him was very real.
Alvin was confident he could take that guy down, but he wasn't confident he could hold off an army that massive all by himself.
He wasn't too worried about Thanos's army suddenly appearing in the Solar System...
According to Star-Lord's girlfriend, Gamora, and Nebula, the half-human, half-machine, Thanos should be fighting in another distant galaxy right now—perhaps the Insect Race's home.
