Known to be a massive fan of the MCU, the Zion Williamson Thanos stories have already made the rounds on the internet in the past. Zion Williamson said last year before the release of Endgame that he prefers Thanos' character to that of the traditional superheroes. So much so that Williamson even admitted that he was rooting for the Titan to beat Captain America and co. However, as was the case in the comic book series, the superheroes triumphed in the movie after Iron Man - played by Robert Downer Jr. - sacrificed himself in the climax. 

Meanwhile, social media reacted to Zion Williamson's personalised Infinity Gauntlet:
