Who is Dark Thanos?

Overview Dark Thanos was a doppelganger created by the Magus prior to the Infinity War . Unlike all his other doppelgangers, Dark Thanos has the exact appearance and mind of the original. Because of his mind, the Magus made him his assistant because of his immense intelligence and scheming abilities. But the Magus succeeded too well in recreating Thanos, and Dark Thanos secretly plotted to take power from the Magus when the time was right. His original purpose was to have the heroes involved to believe Thanos was behind the plot all along. This was successful until Galactus captured them as they battled and read their minds, thus explaining the true situation to all. When the time came, he had to face the true Thanos in battle. Dark Thanos exceeded Thanos in sheer power, being augmented by Magus specifically to destroy Thanos.
