Drax

In the comic books, Drax was created specifically to be the anathema to Thanos and was, therefore, destined to kill the Mad Titan – which he has done (by ripping his heart out, for example).

While that’s not the case in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it has been hinted that Dave Bautista’s character will finish Thanos off (“Of course Ronan was only a puppet. It’s really Thanos that I need to kill”) and it would be suitable revenge for the green alien, after his family were killed under Thanos’ orders.

The likelihood is that the Avengers will be being soundly beaten by Thanos in the first Infinity War movie, only for the Guardians of the Galaxy to join the fight in the second – and that’s when Drax will strike (and it will probably be a straightforward attack with his blades).

Very few people would complain at this outcome – Bautista’s character gained a lot of fans for his performance in his first MCU appearance.

What do you think? Will any of these characters land the finishing blow on Thanos? Who else is most likely to do so in your opinion? Have your say below.
