10 Strangest Comic Book Doomsday Devices Of All Time

10. The Infinity Gauntlet

One of the many things the MCU brought to the big screen was its version of the iconic weapon of universal destruction known as the Infinity Gauntlet. In the MCU this was the ultimate weapon sought after by the Mad Titan Thanos, capable of wiping out half the universe with a snap of his meaty fingers.

And while many of those horrifying qualities are still in the comic book version of this gauntlet of doom, it honestly is not as impressive a weapon as the movies would have you believe.

The most important difference between the MCU and comic book version is that the gauntlet in the comics isn't even made of metal. Instead, it's some sort of leather or cloth-based design which makes it look less like an impressive universe destroying gauntlet and more like a plumbers glove with some discount chaos gems glued on.

Overall the Infinity Gauntlet was impressive when it first appeared on comic book pages but after so much time has passed it just seems weird that the universe hangs precariously over the cliff of despair every time someone fits their hand inside this massive accessory.
