Alignment-wise, Thanos isn't usually defined as "evil," but always as "dangerous." He ruthlessly pursues his own goals, but those goals are usually driven more by curiosity or boredom than a genuine wish to see them through. Many of his defeats have been attributed to a subconscious urge to self-sabotage so that he can move on to the next stage of his life. He is cosmic tinkerer, a lost soul in search of a destiny worthy of his indomitable nature.
That or he's just evil, cruel, and murderous, and everything else is just an excuse. No one seems to be quite sure. Further confusing the issue, many of Thanos' actions have been retrospectively attributed to copycats, clones or robot duplicates.
If you feel safe around Thanos even for a second, you're an idiot. He's not the most powerful entity in the universe, nor is he the cleverest, nor is he the most unpredictable. But he is each of these things in spades, and that is a frightening combination.
Items/Abilities: The Plagiarist let Thanos let his awesome floating chair thing (pictured above), because it's awesome.
Other than that, it's tough to tell where Thanos' natural powers end and his technology begins. He's an expert long-range blind teleporter, he emits a Susan-Richards-level personal force field, and can project cosmic-strength energy. His raw physical strength has at times been shown to approach 1.0 Hulks. The exact power source of these abilities is unknown.
Biography: Born on the paradaisical moon of Titan, Thanos could not achieve his destiny until he reinvented murder on a world where such an act was unheard of. Once he escaped the nest, he was not long to make powerful enemies, such as: the legendary Kree hero Mar-Vell; Silver Surfer, sometime herald of Galactus and wielder of the power cosmic; and Adam Warlock, master of the Soul Gem.
Thanos eventually met, and fell in love with, the cosmic personification of Death, and in an attempt to please her killed half the population of the universe with the omnipotent Infinity Gauntlet. This action was eventually undone, and Thanos and Death had a falling-out. The Infinity Gauntlet affair solidified Thanos' reputation as one of the most volatile entities in the universe, but he continually escaped the arms of his former lover and proved valuable in combating various other universe-level threats.
Most beings or civilizations with the potential power to defeat Thanos consider it safer to ignore him and hope he gets distracted somewhere else. Most recently, Thanos and his Black Guard invaded the Earth (yet again) in an attempt to kill Thanos' son, Thane. Unfortunately for Thanos, Thane underwent a terrigenetic transformation and activated a power set that trapped Thanos in some sort of amber. Thanos was then imprisoned by the Illuminati -- the secret super-kings of the Earth -- in the hope that he might be of some use later.
