![]() Then, gathering all six Infinity Gems (Soul, Power, Time, Reality, Space, and Mind) from In-Betweener and various Elders of the Universe, he wiped out half the universe as a gesture to Death. In his search, he was turned to stone by the Avengers, Spider-Man, and Adam Warlock, but was revived by Death. ![]() Thanos' most storied attempt at subjugating the entire universe came with his pursuit of the Infinity Gems. The Black Order is a team of aliens that Thanos refers to as his "children." The group, including Ebony Maw, Proxima Midnight, Corvus Glaive, Black Dwarf, and Supergiant, help him seek and destroy entire planets. A Goddess of immeasurable might, who holds sway over life itself, Death and her quiet judgement of the universe have motivated, intoxicated, and confounded the Mad Titan for as long as he has traversed the universe. The divine embodiment of Death is Thanos' greatest love and greatest inspiration. However, as the Super Heroes of Earth and their allies have presented the greatest and most difficult obstacles to Thanos' goals, they are foremost in his list of foes. One could argue that, as the Mad Titan maintains a dispassionate approach in his quest for order, all beings have been counted among his enemies. The Goddess also once granted him a techno-mystic chair, which allowed him instant transport across the universe. Thanks to his affinity for the Goddess Death, Thanos also claims he can transfer his followers' souls from one body to another and control what form their next life will take after they die. He can accomplish this by sacrificing others so he can live again or by biding his time in death, recharging his inner strength, so as to return more powerful and terrible than he was before. Perhaps Thanos' greatest ability is his capacity to rise from the dead. Foregoing food and drink, he subsists entirely on cosmic energy. He can also possess the bodies of others -but he simply uses others as shells, channeling his power through a victim until his mind exhausts the host and kills them. He also has incredible psychic abilities he can sense things several star systems away. Thanos is immensely strong and resistant to injury, invulnerable to nearly all types of poison, disease, and telepathic attack. And, with a twisted mind, he took his cosmic duty to heart. Still, Thanos is an Eternal, a type of super human who, according to the Celestials, was meant to be a protector of Earth. Thanos also has a brother, Starfox (AKA Eros), who he was always jealous of, as Starfox was handsome and popular. Thanos later killed her for this attempt. His mother, shocked to see such an ugly baby, and sensing his potential for evil, tried to kill Thanos at birth, although she was stopped by his father, A'Lars, AKA Mentor. He was born among the last sons of Titan's original colonists: Mentor and Sui-San. He carries a Deviants gene, which causes his gruesome and misshapen appearance, with purple, rugged skin. For example, after the planet Pyx rose up against his rule, Thanos ordered Ronan to kill all males there over the age of 10.įrom his birth on Saturn's moon of Titan, Thanos was always an outsider. Thanos dealt with such uprising brutally, have his soldiers, the Ravens and the Bombardiers, and his sons, such as Gallowglass and Ronan the Accuser, quell any dissidence. Unsurprisingly, many civilizations did not enjoy or want Thanos' brutal leadership. ![]() Unfortunately for him, he lost it under mysterious circumstances millennia ago, and has since been attempting to get it back. To help him with his domination, he once possessed a powerful cube that erased the will of his people. To him, fate and chance are always at war, and his rule demonstrates the preeminence of fate. Thanos viewed his reign as the natural order of thing. He saw death as an end to uncertainty, and so, he loved it. He is the Mad Titan.Īs both god and ruler of the Endless Resurgence empire, Thanos controlled his people through a combination of force and fear, viewing freedom as disorder, as a hole in the universe that allows for in randomness and chaos. Most famously, he has attempted to conquer the universe by wielding the Infinity Gauntlet. He is obsessed with Goddess Death and has waged genocidal campaigns in an attempt to placate her. His enemies include nearly every Super Hero in existence. He is perhaps the most evil, bloodthirsty, and powerful villain in the universe -so powerful that religious sects have worshipped him as a god.
