once in a while
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 nicest things
Thanos has ever done before we begin we
publish new content every day so be sure
to subscribe to our channel and ring the
bell to get notified about our latest
videos for this list we’ll be choosing
the most generous and selfless acts that
one of the Marvel Universe’s greatest
villains has done the prove ease may be
not such a bad guy after all because
we’ll be delving into key parts of
Thanos history in the comics and movies
a big Titan sized spoiler warning is in
effect from this point onwards number 10
prevented a collision between two earths
did you know that the Marvel Universe
has its own Illuminati just like our
alleged one the Marvel version operates
from the shadows and counts some of the
universe’s most influential people in
its ranks by 2014’s new Avengers number
23 the organization had come to a
fundamental disagreement about what to
do about earth 9004
which was on course to hit earth 616 the
Illuminati agree that they can’t wipe
out one planet in favor of their own all
except Namor while the others make peace
with their fate Namor secretly forms a
splinter group with Thanos called the
Cabal who do what the Illuminati won’t
obviously the whole thing takes a dark
turn real quick and Namor comes to
regret what he’d done but at least the
main Marvel earth was saved right number
9 rescued Gamora from certain death
Gamora often called the deadliest and
most dangerous woman in the whole galaxy
was once a young child living amongst
the peaceful Zhen who beerus
unfortunately for her people other races
in the galaxy weren’t nearly as peaceful
as they were attacked and wiped out by
the badoon luckily for Gamora she was
spared the fate of her people by Thanos
his reasons may not have been purely
altruistic and he may not have been the
best father but despite himself
Thanos did come to care for Gamora even
if he has a funny way of showing it
number 8 saved lady Death in the comics
Deadpool and Thanos have more in common
than just Josh Brolin they’re both
caught up in the universe’s strangest
love triangle with Marvel’s living
embodiment of death and hey if you don’t
mind the skeletal face we can kind of
see why Thanos has done some pretty mean
things to his romantic rival over the
years like making Deadpool immortal to
keep him away from Lady Death forever
but in the Deadpool vs. Thanos crossover
calm
the pair were forced together to rescue
lady death from the clutches of fellow
cosmic being eternity even after they
rescue her death only has eyes for wait
so while Thanos played hero he didn’t
get the girl
number seven helped the guardians of the
galaxy as hard as it is to picture
Thanos became an honorary guardian of
the galaxy in the Thanos imperative
storyline after the Guardians discover a
corrupted reality known as the
cancerverse
in this reality death doesn’t exist a
discovery that isn’t as great as you’d
think
Thanos surprisingly agrees to help the
team save it and even ends up
sacrificing himself to draw lady death
into the cancerverse
in order to cure the imbalance and
defeat an evil version of Captain Marvel
you wouldn’t think the mad Titan would
be capable of such a selfless act but in
this instance you’d be wrong then again
he did kind of lose it when death
rejected him yet again there’s the
Thanos we know and love
number six double-crossed Annihilus
sometimes the best way to take out one
super villain is with another and Hylas
is an old Fantastic Four enemy in the
self-proclaimed lord of the negative
zone in the 2006 annihilation event he
became hell-bent on wielding the power
cosmic after kidnapping a few of
Galactus as heralds he set his sights on
the big purple guy himself and found an
unlikely ally in Thanos using the power
cosmic
Annihilus hoped to destroy not just the
negative zone but the Marvel Universe
that last part didn’t sit well with
Thanos who wanted to rule the universe
not erase it so the Titan betrayed his
former comrade resulting in Galactus his
freedom and Annihilus his plan being
thwarted which allowed the universe and
its inhabitants to live on it did result
in his death at the hands of Drax though
oh well number-5 helped the heroes
defeat nebula one of the first things
they nose did upon completing the
Infinity Gauntlet was bring his
granddaughter nebula back from the dead
in an effort to win Lady deaths
affections the move fails and what’s
worse is that nebula is left in his
zombified state between life and death
biding her time she later steals the
gauntlet for herself when Thanos is
vulnerable her instability makes her an
even greater threat than her father and
knowing this Thanos agrees to align
himself with Adam warlock Doctor Strange
and Earth’s heroes to take his
granddaughter down number 4 defeated
Maja’s to save reality Adam warlock is
one of the most powerful beings in the
Marvel Universe
so you can imagine the damage he could
do if he turned to the dark side
actually you don’t have to imagine
because that version of him already
exists in the infinity war comics Maja’s
aims to get the infinity gems back in
the gauntlet and go one step further
than that os– he wants reality itself
gone not just half of all life this
leads Thanos once the scourge of the
universe to become one of its greatest
protectors as he tricks majus into
believing he had collected all the gems
when in fact the reality gem in his
possession was a fake the true reality
gem was safely under Thanos as
protection okay maybe safely isn’t the
right word number three calms down and
enraged for Thanos may be known as the
mad Titan but he’s not the only one
whose emotions can lead to disaster by
the early 90s the Asgardian Thunder God
was sinking into a depressive identity
crisis this manifested itself as an
inner demon known as Valkyrie Valkyrie
poisoned Thor’s mind eventually whipping
Odin’s son into a savage frenzy in order
to demolish Asgard which kicked off the
blood and thunder arc with the fates of
all nine realms at stake a desperate
Silver Surfer calls on Thanos to subdue
the crazed God though the Titan relish
is battling Thurid is strongest he does
his promised nobley passing up a chance
to off an old enemy number two defeated
the goddess once again when the fate of
the universe was at stake the mad Titan
was involved this time the being
threatening all of life was out of
Morlocks good side the goddess who
wanted to purge the universe of evil
which to her meant ridding the cosmos of
all sentient life to do so she collected
a total of 30 cosmic cubes in order to
create a machine known as the cosmic egg
which have the ability to grant wishes
the goddess goes after Thanos who saves
by Adam warlock the two join forces to
defeat her army of brainwashed heroes
and Thanos and KO ultimately defeat her
by tricking her into revealing her
twisted plan to her loyal followers the
story ends with goddess being absorbed
into the soul gem and Thanos ordering
the cosmic egg to destroy itself
number one quietly retired after a
defeat for readers of Infinity Gauntlet
the closing moments of Avengers infinity
war would have looked very familiar
that’s because they were pulled right
from the pages of the 1991 comic
crossover event but they weren’t used in
the same context afterthe anos loses the
Infinity Gauntlet to nebula Adam warlock
gives the depowered Titan some insight
having glimpse into his mind warlock
believed stano’s does
think himself worthy of victory this
observation foreshadows the stories Big
Finish faced with certain defeat Thanos
seemingly blows himself up but this was
actually a cover for him to retire
peacefully to an isolated planet in the
near future
Thanos took the ala with grace which is
far more than we could say about most
