1. Thanos’ Muscles
The first thing most noticeable about Thanos is his bulky frame. He is almost 6.5 feet tall and weighs somewhere around 1000 pounds of mostly lean muscles. Given his description, it is understandable why most humans would find him intimidating. The MCU’s Thanos is capable of lifting around 120 million pounds. Maybe that is why he was able to fight the Hulk.
2. Thanos’ Speed
Most of the MCU fans of Thanos would be surprised to know that Thanos defeated the Silver Surfer, a character who can travel faster than light! In fact, Thanos did so by collecting the Infinity Stones during a period when the Surfer had access to the Power Cosmic.
3. Thanos’ Deviant Gene
Thanos carries a Deviant gene and subsequently ‘Deviant Syndrome’ that gives him the trademark chin and pigment. In fact, this led his mother to kill him when he was born. However, he later pays her back in kind!
4. Thanos’ Immortality
Thanos enjoys the best of both worlds- deviant gene gave him incredibly thick purple skin, eternal background gave him great strength. Nobody boasts immortality like Thanos!
5. Thanos’ Brain
The most powerful weapon that Thanos has is his brain. Originally born as Dione, he was a gifted child. He had a brain that excelled beyond his tiny physique. During his childhood years, he created the Space Throne. It would travel faster than light, teleport, and travel inter-dimensionally. In the MCU he defeated Loki, who is hyper-intelligent and mischievous. Loki actually predicted many of Thanos’ actions, yet Thanos managed to defeat him. Moreover, Thanos was able to defeat Tony Stark and Dr, Bruce Banner in Infinity War! All this was possible because he used his brain to its fullest capacity.
