Overview
Personality and attributes
Powers and abilities
Notes
- Thanos was created by Mike Friedrich and Jim Starlin where he made his first appearance in Iron Man v1 #55 (February, 1973).
Alternate Versions
- In Thanos v2 #13 (2017), an alternate future was shown where Thanos succeeded in wiping out all life in the galaxy with him taking the name King Thanos. He ruled the cosmos as a solitary ruler with Frank Castle being turned into his servant as the Cosmic Ghost Rider and Hulk being turned into a ravenous pet that served him. King Thanos used his Ghost Rider to abduct his younger self to aid him in battling the Fallen One under the belief that the destruction of this threat would allow him to finally be with his lady Death.
- In Cosmic Ghost Rider (2018), an alternate timeline was created when the Cosmic Ghost Rider travelled back in time to kill an infant Thanos. However, upon seeing the child, he decided to take him away and attempted to raise him to be a force for good. This resulted in a Thanos that saw the Cosmic Ghost Rider as his father and he moulded himself in his image as the Punisher where he operated under a similar ideology as his adoptive parent Frank Castle. He created a future where people lived under the peace he created or were left to die slowly in a wasteland outside his paradise. Upon seeing this future, the Cosmic Ghost Rider was horrified and rejected the future that he had unintentionally created.
