I like how you left out the three pages AFTER that, when Thanos started to panic because his forcefield was breaking.
I also like how you left out that Thanos had already acquired the gems in those second scans.
I suggest people ignore him. He's purposefully being an irritant and isn't interested in real discussion.
In any event, I think this thread clearly demonstrates superman is losing. I'm a dc guy personally, but superman has no chance to beat skyfather-level beings by himself, sun-dipped or otherwise. He's amped up to the point that he can fight herald levels (if not for the radiation weakness), but not thanos. I said this in another thread, but the appropriate dc analog is probably pre-crisis darkseid.

Thanos isn't skyfather level. Superman has defeated Hearald level beings too. With Superman far superior speed combined with his strength and durability, he'll be able to beat Thanos at his normal levels.
Here's Mar-Vell speedbiltzing Thanos.

We didn't say Thanos didn't land any shots....he did. And they only pissed Champion off. Thanos hid behind his forcefield and panicked while his forcefield started cracking around him under Champion's blows. I wouldn't exactly call that a combat victory.
Superman is, obviously, Champion's inferior in strength. But he more than makes up for that with a speed advantage several orders of magnitude greater.
Simply put: if Champion is 10 times stronger than Superman (and he's not), Superman just needs to hit at a rate of 10-1 to equalize it. Superman can outhit Champion at a rate of thousands to one.
And ditto with Thanos.
Superman!!!
nope.
that's not what happen.
here's what actually did
Power gem: Thanos arrives at a planet where he sees Champion (the Elder) fighting/battling the natives - something Champion lives for. The gem Thanos now seeks is the power gem. A gem that can be tapped into for brute strength or can be used to power the other gems. Thanos challenges Champion to a fight with the planet they are on as a prize. They begin fighting but Thanos easily outwits his opponent. Attempting to anger him, Thanos soon erects a force field around himself. Champion attempts to break it but just gets angrier. He then jumps into the air wishing to fall down and break the force field with a concentrated blow. As he falls down, concentrating all his power on the punch, Thanos at a precise moment teleports away and Champions' power punch shatters the entire planet by causing inner core chain reactions. Champion thinks he's won as he hangs on to a piece of rock from the planet that is floating in space, but Thanos appears on his mystical chair and tells him he hasn't. That all he has done is destroy the prize of their contest. Champion challenges Thanos but Thanos turns him down and begins to leave. Champion realizes he is stranded and asks Thanos to not leave him there. Thanos tells him it will cost him his gem. Though he resists at first, Thanos reminds him that though he is immortal, he may well be there several centuries. Champion agrees and gives Thanos his gem. Thanos tows him to a nearby planet and then lets him fall from orbit as he decrees that he'd take him to the closest planet but never agreed to a soft landing...
feel free to read that comic again and tell me if that's inaccurate. Throughout the thanos quest, he didn't wanna use unnecessary force but just to get the gems. The quote above is not mine but a synopsis from another site. I have the comics but like everyone else, i'm a lazy bastard.

That's why think Thor knocking Thanos, wasn't jobbering, since also seen Thor fight Zeus. And the Power gem supposed to have unlimited power, why wasn't it there? Thanos whould have lost eventually anyways.
Stop making things up. When did Thor ever knocked Thanos out?
but hey, here's the fight anyway.

The other thanos/thor fight was retconned to being a lowly clone and so was most of the other "bad showings" he got.

About 99.44% sure Thanos had the gems in his possession in the scan where Champion busted in and demanded bloody vengeance.

The recap doesn't go into any detail at all. Thanos going into a state of panic as his forcefield started to crack under the force of Champion's blows took place during the "Thanos soon erects a force field around himself. Champion attempts to break it but just gets angrier" part of your synopsis. Thanos actually got lucky because Champion's decision to jump hiiiigh in the air in order to come down and shatter the forcefield is what bought Thanos enough time to get away before Champion landed. Champion himself didn't realize how close he came to breaking the forcefield without resorting to such an extreme attack
