Marvel: 20 greatest weapons in Marvel Comics history
By Mark Lynch
20. Infinity Gems/Gauntlet
The Infinity Gems may be the most powerful objects in the universe. Individually, each one is a threat. Once you’ve combined the power, mind, reality, space, time, and soul gems, however, the Infinity Gauntlet can be completed. After that, the universe is yours to mold – just like in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thanos blanked half of reality’s beings from existence. When the universe’s strongest tried to stop Thanos, they were easily defeated.
While the wielder is always defeated, it’s never done easily or without a price. It’s not shocking. Power like this always comes with a price.
19.Ebony Blade
Speaking of weapons with a price, we have the Ebony Blade. A weapon forged by Merlin himself, not only is it nearly unbreakable, it has the gift of being magical. However, it comes with a curse. The person using the blade eventually becomes more violent and bloodthirsty. A villain may not consider this a bad thing but the problem is that it’s a hero’s weapon. A few of the Black Knights have succumbed to the curse, others have given the weapon up before their thoughts and rage got worse. As of now, the current Black Knight has broken the curse. We can assume it won’t be long before it creeps up on him again.
