Marvel Comics’ Thanos was Humbled After the Infinity Snap, & Found Meaning in a Simple Life

Infinity Gauntlet#6 by Jim Starlin and Ron Lim

Rather than sequestrate himself in a far - off human beings to exist the rest of his life on a farm as a reinforcement , Marvel Comics ’ Thanos did so - ab initio - as a form of ego - punishment . He was really humble after his defeat , as everything he worked his entire life history for quite literally swash up in his face , so he went into exile in shame . Thanos accomplish his quest , he eliminated half the universe , yet he had nothing to show for it .

However , rather than make whoopie in the miserableness of his ultimate defeat , Thanos chose to find beauty in a simple living . He realized that tend the soil with his bare hands was just as meaning in the howling dodge of the universe than using that same mitt to hit one million million million with the snap of his fingers . Not only that , but Thanos consider he get a better bargain than the current wielder of the Infinity Gauntlet , Adam Warlock , marking a total change in his personality from this experience .

Marvel Comics & the MCU Used the Same Narrative Note in Opposite Ways

The endgame for Thanos in both telling of Infinity Gauntlet is this farm , yet he gets there in two immensely dissimilar manner in the comics vs the MCU . If Thanos in the MCU failed , Avengers : Endgame proved that nothing would stop him from accomplishing his cosmic task , meaning he definitely would n’t thrash his lesion on some farm before finding a bass meaning in the dewy-eyed life . On the other hired hand , if Thanos in the strip advance , there ’s no way of life he ’d give up his exponent after something so trivial as rub out half of all living in the universe ( indeed , he did n’t ) .

The overarching point here is that Thanos had two separate Infinity Snaps , one in Marvel Comics and one in the MCU , and both led to him becoming a Fannie Farmer - yet the ‘ why ’ in each cause is vastly different . But , at the same clip , strangely the same . In the remainder , Thanos just wanted a fulfilling and accomplished life , and whether in victory or defeat , he found that on his farm . And that ’s whyThanosbecame a James Leonard Farmer after hisInfinity Gauntletsnap ( in both instances ) .
