Has anyone else noticed that parts of Thresh seem rather relatable to the Darksiders series, specifically Darksiders 2? What I mean by that is;

The lantern he uses (that green lantern) is a rather similar model to the one used in Darksiders 2, which was used in the Kingdom of the Dead to open up pathways. In addition, the main character of Darksiders 2 had souls embedded into his chest by a shattered green locket that was bound by chains, bearing similar (but albeit different) motifs to the lantern holding souls.

Thresh's main weapon can be related to the main character's weapon of choice, which are dual scythes (although I will agree a scythe and the weapon Thresh uses have key differences).

Thresh's ability to steal, or rather acquire, souls of his enemies is reminiscent of the Soul system used in the Darksiders series, the first using souls as currency, while the second game allowed souls to restore life and mana.

In addition to these, Thresh's ultimate (The Box) also shares some similarities with an ability from the anime/manga Bleach. The ability in question (Kurohitsugi, AKA "Black Coffin") encases an enemy in a black and purple box, which then impales them. The idea of imprisoning a champion (or enemy) is similar to The Box in this regard.
