The Infinity Gauntlet has caused a lot of problems for the McU. Not only did it help Thanos wipe out half of the universe’s population in Avengers: Infinity War, but the prop’s various appearances in the franchise – from 2011’s Thor to last year’s Thor: Ragnarok – have spawned multiple issues of continuity that both fans and the studio have tried to explain.
For one thing, the appearance of the gauntlet in the post-credits teaser of Avengers: Age of Ultron saw the Mad Titan himself possessing the world-destroying prop, despite us already seeing it in Odin’s treasure room. Ragnarok subsequently explained away this issue when the villainous Hela assessed the version located in Asgard to be a fake. Unfortunately, though, this fix eventually led to its own problems, in that Infinity War showed us that the gauntlet is a relatively new creation that Thanos only just recently forced Eitri to make.
