An Infinity Gauntlet in DC? Thanos crosses the borders of Marvel and inspires the Superman comics, unleashing the madness of the gems… Kryptonite?
Superman has copied Thanos and has presented his own Infinity Gauntlet. Since time is time, Marvel and DC Comics have inspired each other. Someone with a more horny and provocative mind would say “copied”. Be that as it may, we are talking about similarities and parallels of plausible evidence.
We could mention the cases of The Flash and Quicksilver, both speedsters. It would also be worth the example of the Swamp Thing and the Man Thing, whose names already advance the resemblance. Even the figures of Thanos y Darkseid they have such close narrative ties that they have given rise to more than one heated discussion.
However, it is strange to see such a dance of influences today. The cosmogonies of each universe are widely established in the media spectrum and, after so many decades of publications, it is strange to see that the stories of each publisher continue to feed one another. Nevertheless, it has happened.
How is the Infinity Gauntlet from DC Comics?
Of all the objects that exist in the Marvel Universe, probably the best known of all of them is the Infinity Gauntlet. Especially after what we experienced together with Thanos and the great UCM superheroes in both Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Avengers: Endgame (2019).
The curious thing is that this famous Thanos Infinity Gauntlet has been moved to the DC Universe. More specifically, to the number 4 of Superman, the work of Joshua Williamson, Jamal Campbell and Nick Dragotta. Suddenly, a gauntlet that is powered by a bunch of beautiful stones of many colors has come to light. Look at the cartoon:
After an extensive career as a supervillain, Silver Banshee is now trying to get her life back on track and become… good? Be that as it may, in the superman comics Today we see how Doctor Pharm and Mr. Graft have very different plans for Silver Banshee, and that is why they decide to visit her in her apartment.
It is the two of them who show him this formidable and super-powerful gauntlet, but then we never see them again. It is true that we know little about the gauntlet because of this, and that it remains a mystery. However, a few things can be made clear thanks to these brief bullets.
The first thing to note is that the gauntlet works with different types of kryptonite (similar to the infinity gems). These little stones have been transformed into claws that can remind us of Rosalía’s nails. And that, of course, have various effects on other metahuman beings who are not of Kryptonian origin.
We still do not know very well how he acts on a psychological or emotional level, but everything indicates that this DC Comics Infinity Gauntlet It is the object that has led the Silver Banshee to rampage the streets of Metropolis overnight.
