Cull Obsidian

Cull Obsidian is a child of Thanos. Cull and Ebony Maw were tasked with retrieving the Time Stone from Doctor Strange on Earth, but were thwarted by the efforts of Iron Man, Spider-Man and Wong who sent Cull to Antarctica via a portal and also cut off his arm when Cull attempted to jump back through it as it sealed.
