With no plot devices, pis, or prep?
Warlock - He's done it before.
Doomsday - A beast
Cyborg Supes - No pis, can match thanos power for power
Surfer - Same as Cyborg
Strange - He's fought death itself and done well.
Zatanna (surprise, surprise, I know)
Thor - Well Written
Superman
Superman Blue (totally different power base)
Maybe, maybe not. Depends on his relationship with the gem. There's a reason that Adam still has it. He's the only person around that can keep it in check. Warlock also has cosmic as well as magical power, and he's one of the few schemers near Thanos' level (he managed to get the IG for himself, after all). He's also one of very few people Thanos respects. Even after calling Thanos out after the whole HOTU affair, Warlock was free to walk away.
I think he has the right mix of innate skills and abilities to pull it off. Now whether this would happen is a different story. They know each other so well I don't know how it would actually play out, but I do think Warlock could do it.

Your exactly right. I agree. Good post.
Warlock beating him is up in the air, but he could pull it off.
Yeha, I guess Adam could pull it off.
And Avalonofthewind, Stop trying to enforce yout "Superman owns everything beacuse of his speed" belif. Acording to that theroy, Sups shpuld also be able to defeat Galactus and Phenoix (A sure way to end this is to sick GS on you, heh.)
When Thanos ALLWAYS beats people above his power, it's not jobing.
Have i mentioned that Doomsday and Darkseid has never shown enhanced speed? I guess this means superman can defeat him no trouble without PIS as well.

Does it matter who broke what?
Fact is Strange in many occasion knows he can't take the Titian
Fact is Thanos was able to give mad Thor (with gem) ----- a battle
Something Strange , Adam , SS , Drax couldn't , and the so call magic etc couldn't contain Thor.

Where did I say anything about Supermans speed?
Perhaps you should reread threads to find where I have said something like that.
In case you haven't noticed, my list has dc and marvel characters in it...and I never said anyone owns anyone. The thread simply says, who can defeat thanos. It was never said that it would be easy or every time.
Beacuse I rember you made this topic about superman being able to beat thanos if there was no PIS, and the strat was throwing him into the sun or something.
Other then that, Thanos is supirior to Superman in almost every way. He's about as strong (Near Thor level) so I can't see how Superman would take it for any reason besides speed.

Maybe you should reread the thread. It wasnt I that said that.
If you can't see how Supes could get wins, maybe you should read more Superman. No PIS changes a LOT of factors.
