hard to say. it's why i said it depends on the aptitude we're willing to concede. in theory, the time gem SHOULD be able to stop time, if it were used to it's fullest extent.
but it never HAS been, like none of the gems have been individually. there is also the notion that individually the gems are weaker than collectively, as when they are combined they draw power from the power gem which sort of serves as the 'background' for them all. still, each in itself is said to possess 'infinite power'. but we all know how much that actually means . . .
Thanos actually restructured the Fallen One's brain at the cellular level rather than using Psionics.
All your claims about what Thanos is capable of doing doesn't change the fact that he needed Xaviar to utilize his own psionics powers.
And both these times it appears that Moondragon doesn't posesses the mindgem, and don't forget that she never managed to utilize it powers to its full capacity because of Adam having put restrictions on it so that its power couldn't be fully exploited.
In the first set, Dr. Strange defeats Moondragon during Infinity Abyss, but there is no gem present in those scans, which was my point.
In the second, Strange defeats Moondragon essentially because he isn't a person, per se. He's a magical construct. During that same story, didn't Warlock have trouble using a karmic blast on him? Dr. Strange and Strange are not the same.
In the end, those scans only prove my point. In both the Thanos and Dr. Strange incidents, Moondragon was overcome by someone who was able to resist her. Most TPs are not strong enough to resist Xavier on an average day, much less with the Mind Gem. That was my point from the beginning.
He made Fallen One into his herald... making him do whatever he said.
Wait, where did you get that he did this anyway?
So, all of the many other feats that rule this one feat out, automatically lose, because Thanos needed help?
Also, what you neglected to mention, was that Thanos had defeated Goddess, essentially by himself (he had the Mind Gem, but, I didn't bring it up, just telling what actually happened).
And the point of the scans are?
In Thanos's mini-series. When he used Moondragon and himself to get into Galactus's mind (it's Galactus), and Thanos then fought him.
No it doesn't but the scans shown that I choose to post is that of moondragon without the mind gem and on top of that she couldn't even use it powers fully.
He had professors help to utilize his own psionic power before going to battle the godess.
Which moondragon with ore without the mind gem. And what happen to thanos when he fought Galactus???
Ah, very true about the Dr.Strange/Strange being different people. Most people wouldn't know that. Bravo for not saying he's a robot or something.
But, remember, Dr.Strange w/Eye of Agg=Pretty much immune to TP attacks.
Strange can hold X off for as long as he needs to get his eye, and the all he needs to do is walk over and punch him. The Eye is, in effect, a mind gem level TP enhancement artifact itself. Given that Strange is a more powerful telepath naturally and his telepathy is magical and works completely differently allowing him to go straight through mental barriers, he should win handily.
The other problem is that the mind gem will probably also give X TK, as it did with Moondragon. I think there are very few TPs that could exploit the gem as fully as Xavier.
Wait, Moondragon couldn't use her powers fully? So using that logic, Moondragon has never been able to use her powers fully?
Yes, so I see, but what exactly does that say, since Goddess was a telepath, with the cosmic egg?
Also, Thanos wasn't wearing the machine when he blasted Goddess.
Although, it could have been the Gem, but I don't remember it destroying people... oh well.
Moondragon without the Gem. Thanos used her, and himself to project a signal to Galactus, to invite him to a mental plane, and Thanos battled him himself.
Thanos lost of course, but it's Galactus, and Thanos managed to almost submit him with a bunch of wirery things.
