Thanos A God Up There Listening

This story was fairly interesting. The title is fairly misleading as the story does not follow Thanos, but his son, Thane.

This was the first time I ever came across Thane. Actually, I didn’t even know Thanos had a son. Let alone such a powerful being. In fact, judging by how seemingly effortless it is for him to kill an entire room full of people, it appears as though Thane may even be stronger than his own father.

In this story we follow Thane on his journey to learn about his father. At some point, one of his father’s loyalists appears to him and offers to take him to see moments and memories of his father’s life.

After some initial reluctance he agrees and travels with his companion to learn all about his father. But he isn’t interested in Thanos to emulate him, he wants to study his father’s legacy so that he does not become like him.

They never show exactly how, but every time someone tries to harm Thane, they die a brutal death. Unfortunately for his opponents, Thane may be more like his father than he wants to be, cause they all end up very, very dead.

In the comics, people think that Thanos is mad because he is often seen talking to Lady Death who no one else can see. As you read on in this series, something similar is happening to Thane because no one else can see who he’s talking to. “What do you mean the ‘two’ of you?”

In fact, many of the people that Thane talks to have apparently been dead for a long time. Yet, somehow he is receiving all this information. The one thing that one can conclude is that his father is somehow telepathically linking up with him from beyond the grave. I was a bit confused for a bit.

As I’m trying to put this together I realize that I have to write these breakdowns much sooner because if I allow too much time to pass then I tend to forget the stories because I read so much. Although there is something to be said about the fact that I don’t really remember much of the details from some of the stories. Perhaps I need to read the more slowly or read them more than once or simply, they might just not be memorable.

All that being said, if you are a fan of Thanos, then I think you will enjoy reading about his son Thane. I’d love to learn more about him and will do some more research and reading on him.
