Sigh... Mods should start enforcing the 7-8 showing rule and close threads that make fights too early, because I wanted to make this thread a while ago but was waiting for deathtry to have more showings. no fair.
That wasnt King Thor but yeah he got the ko on Thor. Thanos should win but we will have to wait a couple more issues to see what Death Sentry is capable of.
He would knock his ass out or kill him with a blast is what he would do to him. The same as he does to every other herald level character. Surfer is just as fast if not faster than Sentry and he had no problem almost killing him in a few blows. Surfer is far far more durable as well. Sentry just has the ability to reform. Forum rules state one kill. Thanos durability to energy attacks is to much for Sentry. And before we get into the few molecular manipulation feats that Sentry has Surfer has a hell of a lot more and he cant do it to Thanos. Thanos is simply beyond high herald low trans characters.
Deathtry is above all high heralds. With that said Damborgson is right I was thinking it and didn't want to say it, but he said it. Thanos didn't show any signs of pain towards thors lightning strikes but deathtry did, which is a good point and may show a potential sign. But ill still stalemate this until deathtry has more showings. The guy was only in a couple books lets give him some time to develop.
Both are above Herald levels and both showed advantages when facing Thor. Even though Thanos didn't show a sign of damage during Thor attack, Thanos didn't punch Thor so hard that it shook an entire planet...hell, looking at both fights, Thor withstood Thanos punch far better than what was shown during his fight against Sentry.
This fight could go either way imo. If I had to give an edge...f it, I don't know who to give the edge too.
