10The Presence Of Big Cosmic Entities

Some of Marvel’s most powerful names didn’t show up on screen

The actions of Thanos in the comics were certain to draw the attending of the Marvel world ’s most hefty entity , and the MCU overlook to incorporate this facet of the original story . Thanos ' snap drew the aid of beings like Galactus , Epoch , Eternity , and The Living Tribunal , some of Marvel ’s most Supreme Being - comparable entities with nigh - absolute dominance over the forces of the cosmos . Whilethe MCU has shown off some Celestials , as well as Eternity inThor : Love and Thunder , Thanos ' actions evidently did n’t read as a problem for them in the Infinity Saga .

9Adam Warlock Leads The Remaining Heroes

The character is far more important in Marvel’s comics compared to the films.

In the MCU , Adam Warlock did n’t show up in full until long after the Infinity Saga inGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 , only having been teased in the post - credits scene ofGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2by the meter ofAvengers : Infinity War . Yetin the original floor , Warlock is something of a central hoagy , being the major rallying force behind Earth ’s feat to stop the Mad Titan from continuing to abuse the power of the Infinity Stones . InThe Infinity Gauntlet , it is Warlock , not Iron Man or Captain America , that extend the world ’s conflict against Thanos .

8Fallen Characters Could Come Back From The Soul World

The metaphysical realm served a very different purpose in the comics.

The MCU did conform certain element of the mysterious Soul World from the original comic . InThe Infinity Gauntlet , the outlandish land map as a strange purgatory for lost spirits engross within the Soul Stone itself . The MCU rendering is fair similar to this , albeit with less various imagery , with one fundamental preeminence - spirits absorbed by Soul World in the cartoon strip could come back . Adam Warlock , Silver Surfer , Gamora , and little - knownMarvel Comics satyr Pip the Trollall manage to devolve to world after being absorb , using dead human body as vessel .

7Hulk Isn’t The One To Warn Strange About Thanos

The Silver Surfer is the herald of more than just Galactus.

Towards the beginning ofAvengers : Infinity War , a excited Bruce Banner does everything he can to warn Doctor Strange of the encroaching threat of Thanos and his Black Order shortly after being brutally flap by the villain as The Hulk . This scene actually act out fairly similarly in the comedian , but with the major divergence of The Silver Surfer being the one to deliver the news instead . At the time of the film ’s development , The Silver Surfer ’s right were still tied up with Fox Studios as an auxiliary character to The Fantastic Four , preventing his use in the MCU .

6Thanos Sacrifices Nebula Rather Than Gamora

Which daughter suffers by Thanos' own hands was changed in the movies.

One of the lamentable scene in the entire Infinity Saga was when Thanos tearfully threw his darling daughter off of a cliff on Vormir , sacrifice her for his hobby of power . In the strip , Thanos does indeed commit unspeakable turn against one of his own daughters , but rather than Gamora , it ’s Nebula who feel his wrath . The tone of the aspect is far dissimilar from Thanos ' killing of Gamora as well , experience little more than hatred for Nebula as he traps her in a shrine and burns her alive , nearly killing her and leaving her in a horribly burn state of matter .

In the funnies , Nebula is n’t Thanos ' adopted daughter , but rather a space buccaneer who pretends to be his granddaughter .

5Mephisto’s Influence Is Nowhere To Be Felt In The MCU

The demonic lord didn’t make it to the film series.

Mephisto is one of the most nauseating and influential villain of the total Marvel Universe , being the ultimate mastermind behind such tragedies as Norman Osborne ’s descent into the Green Goblin or the internment of Dr. Doom ’s female parent . Of of course , Thanos ' assembly of all six Infinity Stones drew his attention , the insidious monster always on the lookout for new sources of power to manipulate . Mephisto convinces Thanos to hold back his power when fightingbefore unite the fray himself . While the role did seem in 2007’sGhost Rider , he has yet to show up in the MCU .

4Dr. Doom Helps The Heroes

Doom winds up being one of the most significant threats to his fellow supervillain.

Despite being one of Marvel Comics ' most significant villains , Doctor Doom has occasionally stepped in to campaign on behalf of the heroes in the aspect of world - ending menace that would imperil the world he wishes to conquer . The Infinity Gauntletis one such example , in which Doom not only joins the heroes in facing Thanos , but cater the Mad Titan with one of his most awful opponents , forcing him to break off restrict his mogul . Even if rumors ofDoom ’s unveiling in the nextAvengersmoviehave been pass around , he never got to come out in the Infinity Saga .

3Nebula Replaces Thanos As The Final Villain

Rather than a younger version of himself, Thanos is supplanted by his supposed granddaughter.

To provide the Avengers with a final opponent to overpower in the culmination ofAvengers : Infinity War , Nebula introduces a new version of Thanos to the present day . While Nebula has a similarly large role in the actual comedian , the specific of the final battle of the serial are far different , with Nebula herself supplanting Thanos as the final antagonistic wielder of the Infinity Gauntlet . Even if her reign with the Infinity Stones is unawares - lived , it ’s a ignominy Marvel Studios were n’t able to give Nebula ’s nefarious side a handsome hazard to do some damage .

Nebula ’s abilities in the MCU made her a worthful member of the Guardians of the Galaxy , particularly since it seemed as though nothing could kill her .

2Thanos Actually Lives In The Original Comic

The Avengers don’t feel quite the same need for revenge.

likewise to the films , Thanos finds himself giving up on the hobby of power after usingthe Infinity Stonesfor The Snap , alternatively love a simple life as a Fannie Farmer on a tranquil , isolated planet . InAvengers : Endgame , the heroes are n’t content to let Thanos enjoy his peace after sow so much demolition , unceremoniously murdering him in revenge . InThe Infinity Gauntletcomic , Thanos does n’t actually recur to this lifestyle until much later , after having faked his own death , assuring Adam Warlock he ’d given up on go after major power .

1Thanos' Motivations Are Completely Different

Mistress Death isn’t mentioned in the Marvel movies.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe , Thanos ' program hinge on his ultra theme of conservation , asserting that only through random forfeit can the overpopulated universe hope to survive and flourish . In the comics , his drive to murder half the universe is actually far more emotional in nature , doing so out of a desire to impress Mistress Death , the android shape of death rate . It ’s graspable why this change was made , with Death being just another character for theMCUto rapidly establish , but something was sure as shooting lost in the change to Thanos ' motive .
