Here we see Thanos doing what he does best. Shitting on your couch.....also SPOILERS!
How in the world am I going to quickly sum up and explain how good of a villain Thanos is?
Well first of all if you've read comics I don't even need to explain either and you know why this guy is on the list. He's arguably the most powerful being in anything as long as he has the infinity gauntlet and even without he's insanely powerful and a genius as well. I'll mention two stories here to explain why thanos not only deserves a spot on this list but why he's one of my favourite comic book villains.
First off I'll start with his origins because it just makes sense. Thanos was born on Jupiter's moon Titan. He's a deviant which would take me forever to explain what that is so either look it up Here. Or just trust me that it's kind of like mutants or some kind of thing like that to keep it short. Thanos' Mother took one look at her son and attempted to commit the first case of murder on titan in millennia Either because she knew he would become the avatar of death or because THIS is what he looked like
Yeah the term "BURN IT WITH FIRE" came to my mind too.
She was immediately put into an asylum and Thanos' father looked after him. However his father A'Lars was always too busy with work and with his mother bat squeak insane he mostly grew up dependant on the other kids in school for human interaction. It's no surprise that due to his appearance he was shunned by the......wait...the other kids really liked him? Huh.....lost that bet. Go figure yeah he had no problem hanging out with the other kids despite his appearance and the fact he was a bookworm. Man This titan place sounds like paradise. No murders, Everyone gets along. why don't more people go visit this place?
Oh....Ultron became it.....well. Shit.
That was long after the planet died out though and I'll get to why it did a bit later.
So absent family and lots of friends. Doesn't sound awful. Well one of his friends a girl with black hair and white marks on her face started talking to him and she convinced him to take him and his friends to a nearby cave where all except thanos and her were murdered by lizards. Well that's an unfortunate accident (cough). Afterwards the same girl when thanos was talking to a lizard of the same species convinced him to go to the cave and slaughter the whole group of the lizards for revenge. Something very unheard of on the planet. Suffice to say this girl Is a wee bit demented because yes she did plan this and she did plan for him to become one of the greatest psychopaths. She led him to not only experiment on animals and eventually people but she kept leading him until he killed his own mother and long story short would basically destroy titan after becoming the leader of a group of raiders as an adult.
Also I should mention Thanos was the only one who could see her and her name...
May have been death.
Thanos became the avatar of death as he fell in love with her. This is one of the main reasons I love this guy. He has kind of an odd Shakespearean thing going on with him being one of the most horrible and destructive villains in comics but he's doing it because of love....eh kind of. In "Thanos Rising" It's implied now it's less love and more because he has nothing else to really shoot for and he himself can't die at least not easily so he just kinda ran with it.
As for the other story that would be "Infinity Quest" Where he learns of and gathers the infinity gems and becomes the most powerful being in existence. He hunts down each of these powerful cosmic entities and manages to trick them into getting their gem. The final gem he needed was held by a man named the grand master he was an expert on games of chance and skill and had a set up so that if Thanos either lost or tried to kill the grandmaster he would teleport the last gem into the middle of a wormhole. If he won the gem was Thanos' to keep. He competed in a virtual combat game. ( You can't say you didn't just picture him playing call of duty and getting whomped by an 8 year old.) When Thanos would lose due to the Grandmaster cheating and purposely giving thanos worse weapons and the Grandmaster would vaporize him. But Thanos made sure a clone played and thanos took the teleport device and killed him taking the gem.
Thanos is a genius. He is ruthless and unstoppable....except for the times he was stopped. Much like Lucifer the only reason he's this low on the list is really due to personal preference of the 4 ahead of him. And Believe me Once number 4 is unveiled Believe me that Is going into full effect.
