Hello, I'm an expert in mythology and popular culture. Let's dive into the question about Thanos.

Thanos is not a Greek god. He is a fictional character from the Marvel Comics Universe, created by Jim Starlin and first appearing in "The Invincible Iron Man" #55 in February 1973. Thanos is often depicted as a powerful and feared supervillain, known for his obsession with the Marvel Universe's personification of death, Mistress Death. He is also infamous for his quest to collect the Infinity Stones and harness their power to wipe out half of all life in the universe.

Thanos is often associated with Greek mythology due to his appearance and the fact that his homeworld is named Titan, which is also the name of one of Saturn's moons and a figure from Greek mythology. However, this is where the connection ends. He is a product of comic book fiction and not an actual deity from Greek mythology.
