Odin stated that thor with the power gem would destroy asgard and the nine worlds, including himself. And decided that his own son should be DESTROYED to prevent that from happening.
You think an asgardian trinket compares to an artifact of INFINITE power that predates the universe? You think Odin would be frightened of an artifact even CLOSE to as weak as the belt of strength?
The belt of strength grants 2x strength. The uni-power grants 50x. The power gem grants INFINITE strength. They don't say 2x; they don't say 50x; they say INFINITE.
Thanos was beating thor with the power gem AND warrior madness. He KILLS thor with the belt of strength, just as he has on every other occasion they've fought.
Hmmm..beating Thor? Was he? The last time i read those scans Thanos was holding onto Mad Thor w/power gem...a feat that shld be in the Thanos respect thread. But the outcome was Thanos was bleeding after the fight..so he simply caged Thor. But said that Thor would break free and KILL THEM ALL!!!
Originally posted by leonidasinfinite power, blah blah blah. scales of infinity. adam's gem is an infinity gem and he cannot even AFFECT galactus ! but, he's experienced? he's even had them all! and it's . . . infinite. moondragon and thanos were tossed out of g's mind on their asses -- but she had the mind gem. it's infinite, isn't it? and she's experienced. she's not insane. she's not stupid. then how--? oh yah -- the gems are overrated. always an excuse for it's user -- stupid, inexperienced, insane . . . whatever. no one has used the individual gems to do jack. the avengers beat the watch, as have many others. maybe it IS powerful. no feats (aside from the drax/champ) back it up.
yeah, i hope that helps a little. you ****ing idiot. lol
jk, but i hope it helps.

my, aren't we the articulate one. my favourite thing in these forums is when you call someone on something -- like i did you when i asked for proof of feats from the gem -- and they resort to insults to draw away from the initial issue because they know they were owned by the question.
as i recall, this was your initial point:
<<power gem>belt of strength
thats what.>>
brilliant.
😆
oh, and genius, i said the gem was potentially more powerful -- it's just never really been shown.
😆
Well Thanos would win in a fight, sure, he's more POWERFUL...
but to claim that he's physically stronger is presumtious at best until someone can come and prove it. In Thanos Quest 1, he alluded to Champion being stronger than him and defeated him through power and intelligence advantage, and then after that fight said he can only hope that he'd never meet Hulk in a physical combat.

my point exactly. i never claimed thor would win a fight. the whole point of this 3-day-long debacle, has been to say that thanos is NOT 100x stronger than thor, and the very idea is ridiculous.
i might even go as far as to say thanos might beat thor in a fist fight even if thor HAD the belt, but i happen to think it would be a great fight, and it could go either way. to say someone is more than 2x as strong as thor is really saying something considering some of thor's feats . . . to say they are 100x, and claim that it is in line with marvel's depiction of thanos, is . . . unbelieveable . . .
the power gem is more powerful then this belt of strengh when the champion had it he destroyed a planet with a single punch even though his fighting style was crap which is why he lost. but yeah the whole gem things each alone seems to be rather useless since warlock has to be careful using it, and moondragon cant even controll silver surfer, Darkseid should never have been beaten down by Supes thats just rediculous that he was in other showing Darkseid has been said to be able to kill supes in a sec if he really wanted to which is plosable before they turned darkseid to jobberseid.

Originally posted by leonidasYep, simply not provable, but by suggestion and mentioned earlier, Thanos didn't think of himself as stronger than Hulk or Champion in Thanos Quest. That should be a clue.
you may very well be right, but again it's more because his durability lets him absorb punishment. strength wise the difference i don't think would be very great. and there is no way one can say thanos is ONE HUNDRED TIMES stronger than thor . . .
