Thanos in the comics was basically a dude super upset that a skeleton with breasts was ignoring him so he got the infinity gauntlet to impress her, only to find there was nothing he could do and him becoming more powerful didn't matter. Death just plain didn't want to get into a romantic relationship with him and was into Deadpool instead. Killing half the universe was an attempted tribute to show off, the equivalent of a guy buying a girl a new house to impress, but alas, the girl here wanted a cancer ridden jokester who'd show up from time to time. Probably the biggest act of direct rage he had was making sure Deadpool would be immortal, just so that relationship could never happen.

Basically comics Thanos got cucked by Ryan Reynolds so hard the universe exploded.

So it's impressive what MCU did to his character!
