(No Infinity War spoilers)
Because I have been reading a lot of comics lately, and just recently seeing Infinity War, it got me thinking about the most powerful object in the Marvel Universe...
and the many people to use it
For certain the most famous Infinity Gauntlet user is, and has always been the mad titan Thanos. We saw this in Infinity War as well, although it seems in the MCU the Infinity Gauntlet is not nearly as powerful as it is in the comics, likely due to the fact it is just hard to portray that kind of power.
Sidenote, this is how I have felt about several characters in the MCU.
- Hulk has always been severely underpowered in the MCU, his physical strength is nearly unrivaled.
- Thor just recently in Ragnarok realized the powerful Thor we know in comics
- Scarlet Witch is SEVERELY underpowered in the MCU, she could quite possibly be one of the most powerful Avengers, but tends to be powered to the likes of Hawkeye, and Black Widow. Recently in the AXIS event, Scarlet Witch literally switched the polarities of good and evil. Obviously it is a difficult thing to try and show on the big screen, but has still been disappointing to say the least.
- Vision... don't get me started on Vision... lets just say, he could have been so much cooler
Thanos may be the most famous gauntlet user, but he is far from the only. Even in the comic book other people used the same Infinity Gauntlet after Thanos including Nebula, and Adam Warlock.
In my opinion, even Adam Warlock utilized the gauntlet better than Thanos. Sure Thanos killed half the universe, became a god, and withstood every cosmic being that exists... but Adam Warlock was able to speak with "The One Above All" as equals, casually knew the future, and juggled our solar system LOL.
There is one person I think that could wield the gauntlet to its FULL POTENTIAL in the Marvel Universe.
Apparently he already has in some comics, but I haven't read them yet
Because the Infinity Gems kind of have their own consciousness, and pick up on traits of the user, I think that Mr. Fantastic would be the best candidate. I believe this due to his inherent intelligence and natural way of thinking. He can do amazing things with simple tech, and think his way out of most situations. His cunning combined with unlimited potential, I think could be absolutely mind boggling.
