Am an actual fan of Thanos.
Long before any of this MCU and horrible retconning of Marvel Comic Characters, like Iceman becoming gay all of a sudden.
While other people read Marvel for the Avengers and X-Men...?
I have always read Them for the likes of Thanos.
Apocalypse.
Magneto.
Dr. Doom
Mister Sinister....
With all that Typed.
I was underwhelmed by the New Trailer, as I Should Be.
And why?
Because this entire time has been nothing but movies ABOUT THE HEROES.
Meanwhile the very comic book storyline that They have taken everything FROM.
Is missing numerous CRITICAL PIECES AND PEOPLE FROM IT.
Some could not be helped, such as the Fact that the Silver Surfer was in Fox's hands, FOR STARTERS;
The Very Essence of the Infinity Gauntlet-series stems from Him.
And the Fact that Thanos, having been brought back to Life by Mistress Death.
Dupes Silver Surfer.
For starters?
Thanos?
Is a VERY OLD.
VERY ODD.
Character.
His Appearances HAVE ALWAYS MEANT UNIVERSE-THREATENING EVENT.
Because THAT is the Stakes He Plays For.
The Recent Retcons and so-called "Explanations".
Have finally revealed things, but at the End of the Day.
Thanos was born deformed, for His Race of Titan-Eternals.
With the Deviant-gene.
At least, Their Facial-Features.
The Deviants are the brother-race to the Eternals.
None of this has even been REMOTELY TOUCHED UPON.
Which is fine, TO A POINT.
To.
A.
Point.
Because it then robs the viewer of knowing what Thanos' problem was or is, at least, how it WAS.
In His Original Backstory.
Bottom line is.
Eternals?
Are EXTREMELY POWERFUL.
The Silver Surfer was given His Power Cosmic by Galactus, BUT ETERNALS?!?!?
They then HAVE TO TRAIN TO MASTER ITS USAGE.
THEN THEY CAN SPECIALIZE THAT USAGE FOR VARIOUS EFFECTS!
-_-
None of this is even BRIEFLY TALKED ABOUT IN ANY MOVIE.
Because ALL OF THE MOVIES.
Are about the lame-ass ducks that Thanos is going to EASILY MURDER.
Notice I did NOT TYPE.
Kill.
Killing an Enemy means They HAD A CHANCE AGAINST YOU.
Humans?
HAH!
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Captain America?
I saw that in the Trailer, even BEFORE any Infinity Stones.
Thanos has the same OUTRIGHT STRENGTH AS AN UNRAGED HULK!
-_-
Stop the Bullshit Marvel.
The Only Way Cap can even THINK to pull that off is because THANOS LET HIM do that, something, in the comics...?
He has done before.
-_-
My Food is finished.
Lemme eat.
I will say THIS -_-
TYPE.
This much.
Thanos?
Is one of thee most DEADLY.
Marvel comics characters and NOT because of His Powers.
Or Physical Abilities.
But because of His MIND.
For the Record?
Tony Stark?
Shuri?
Their Minds, THEIR INTELLECT?
Dr. Doom?
Mr. Fantastic?
These are LITERALLY some of thee SMARTEST PEOPLE OF EARTH.
And They are STUPID.
In comparison to Thanos.
This is why THIS CHARACTER.
Was ALWAYS LOCKED AWAY.
Until Stan Lee wanted some sort of COMIC ALTERING SHIT!
And then He'd turn to Jim Starlin, who if memory serves has admitted to being some sort of functional DRUGGIE.
And He'd pretty much tell'im;
"Release the Thanos."
In the MCU, Thanos is an unknown.
In the comics?
EVEN WITHOUT the Infinity Gauntlet.
Thanos has FOUGHT ALL OF THE AVENGERS BY HIMSELF!
-_-
No Universe altering anything.
Just Him.
And Them.
In His Way.
With the ENTIRE UNIVERSE AT STAKE.
Let THAT FACT.
Sink in.
Thanos, as a character?
Has been done A MASSIVE INJUSTICE throughout this entire MCU-crap.
And Yes.
I TYPED.
CRAP.
Enough.
My Food is getting cold.
But before I go.
Shout Out to Mike Watson from Our Lincoln University Days.
He wasn't really into comic books.
But He knew a thing or two.
We were all SITTIN AROUND, Sophomore Year.
Shootin the Shit, bullshittin.
And I believe Alex asked who everybody would be IF We were comic book characters.
And We all went around the room and ran down and agreed on WHO WAS WHO.
Then They reached Me.
Of course I was called Magneto by a few people.
But Mike Watson said, no.
I know, who You are.
Who You would Be.
Especially with Your Background, Brother.
You, My Dear Friend.
Could only be Thanos, the Mad Titan.
Nobody in that room knew who He was, except for Me.
And Mike.
Mike then asked Me to let the others read some of the comics I had on Thanos.
We sat around talking, They sat around talking.
I went back to writing.
We went to dinner at the caf.
Came back.
They read some more.
And by about 10 o'clock...?
Paul Agoha said "Yeah... Yeah." I remembered the Fact that He looked uneasy as He said "Yeah." again. Because of course. Paul and His Cousin Winston had seen, back then? I was maybe 220-pounds, maybe. Maybe?
But They saw on a number of occasions that IF I HAD TO.
If I HAVE TO.
I am Far Stronger than I Look.
Alex unfortunately found that out the hard way.
But it wasn't that.
Winston said it Himself "This dude fuckin sets plans INSIDE OF FUCKIN PLANS where HE ACCURATELY PROJECTS WHAT PEOPLE WILL FUCKIN DO! Which allows HIM to KEEP HIMSELF HIDDEN. GET WHAT HE WANTS. Then move on. And by the Time anybody FUCKIN KNOWS WHAT HE'S BEEN FUCKIN DOIN!? YOU GOT ONE FUCKIN CHANCE TO STOP THIS FUCKIN GUY OR YOU'RE FUCKIN DEAD!"
Exactly.
Brute force strength?
Who doesn't have that.
Who can't be, PHYSICALLY.
Intimidating.
But?
When One shows that They know how to properly lay out plans that INCLUDE OTHER PEOPLE IN THEM where Said Person CAN ACCURATELY MOVE PEOPLE AS THEY WISH TO GET WHAT THEY NEED. While those pieces are completely UNAWARE of what They HAVE, or? What THEY HAVE DONE? Because to Them. It's simply, something They Needed to Do.
But?
For Me...?
It is something that I need.
Where if I am seen acquiring It?
Then problems can arise for Me that I'd rather avoid, if possible.
Thanos?
Is a Thinker.
A Strategist.
And?
Obviously.
A Master-Manipulator.
Mike Watson told Me that what separates Me from this character is that I have an actual conscious. He then added the Fact that "I have seen however, when somebody tries to get over on You? Pending on what They did...? I've seen You do some downright EVIL. And PERMANENT SHIT to people. Where You're NOT someone to make an enemy of, cuz You got A LONNNNNNNNNG FUCKIN MEMORY!"
Yes.
I Do.
