The current writer is trying way too hard to ground the heroes. I'm all for it to a point, but now it just looks ridiculous and out of place.
Yes, a hundred years older is the game changing asterisk for Starlin's Thanos.
Those scans were interesting. Thanos resisting Hunger like that is pretty ridiculous. Hunger absorbed realities successfully. I prefer Starlin's Thanos. He is incredibly powerful but potentially into the far future is when he will ascend into his place in the cosmic landscape. Somewhere between Abstract concepts (Love/Hate/Death) and Cosmic Powes (Galactus/Odin/Celestials).
Starlin respects hierarchies. Thanos is powerful enough to actually challenge beings like Odin and Galactus, but it's done in a respectful way. As respectful as Starlin can get. Thanos is written as sensible while everyone else is an idiot.

When Hunger assimilated planets and stars, it killed the future Death-Thanos.
^Kill =/= Absorb. Even in a weakened form, he could influence Galactus. There seem to be no limit to his hunger. That's the impressive part. I don't even like Thanos. Why are you making me restate the obvious?

I'm going to have you quickly re-read this post and your previous post, and hopefully you'll understand why you went from a non-point to a positive feedback loop of stupidity.
Thanos grows more powerful with age, so that's why he was able to resist hunger at the moment. But to support your logic, you're pointing to Hunger defeating a far older Thanos?
1) You're an idiot.
2) He didn't beat Hunger because he had another century under his belt. He beat Hunger because he's Thanos and doesn't lose, Thanos is supreme. The only one who can defeat Thanos, is Thanos. It's been a running theme in Starlin's book for a few decades now.
3) From my reading, he successfully killed an older cosmic Thanos in a fight after absorbing most of reality. Here he tried to CONSUME Thanos. Ultimately a fatal error.
This is my last post on the topic. You should make a separate thread if you want to discuss this further.

So older Thanos of 2127 killed Hunger before it assimilated Ghost. He killed it in its weakened state. It's a great feat but hardly unprecedented.
Why is that so hard for you to understand?
Also nukes did the damage, eh bran?

Never fails to make me laugh. Universal Galactus right there.
