He was joke to hin, beacsue there was no way Thanos would do anything to him. He was only pissed because Thanos didn't give up, otherwise he was joke.

odin looked like he might have ran out of tricks also, and dont listen to xplosive, he said Apocalypse could beat Galactus.
Odin didn't have any trouble with Thanos, not even a little.

Did the Destroyer ever really take out a celestial? I've only heard through word of mouth that when it actually fought a celestial it got totalled.And I know it's been made a herald of Galactus but that coincides with the flucuating power thing.
It didn't really do anything to the celestials, it just cut off one of there arms, but that grew back instantly, as they have regenerative powers which makes the Hulks look slow.
Didn't i read a book where Thanos actually achieved the highest level that there was in the Universe above the OAA. Where for all intents he was God. In that book when no one else existed out came adam warlocke...spookie.
Now a lot of you guys have said what a piss ant he is. Do you fig a celestial could have done that.

2. Anyone with a device like the IG or HOTU can achieve godhood.
3. Thanos may come 'packing', but he falls way short against Celestials. The Celestials were the ones that created the Eternals, so it's really illogical to assume that Thanos, under his own power, would be much of a threat to them.

see.... this is where the lines of Strength and power get blurred...See strength is based on what thanos can do without any outside help. In which he would lose to any abstract, and is on Par with A Skyfather, which makes him extremeley formidable, but nowhere near untouchable.But comparing Thanos of Titan to any other Eternal of his Race is like comparing Godzilla to the Geico Gecko.
But I do beleive that Thanos is on of the most Powerful beings in the Universe. He may not posses the brute strength to take out abstracts such as Galactus and Chronos by himself, but he can definatley defeat them under his circumstances. Thanos is Marvels Ultimate Apex predator, No-one attempts to cross him, not odin, not big G. Becuase they are like a pack of Lions versus a human, yeah, in a straight up brawl, the human gets ripped apart, but if both allowed to use resources the lions still just come with teeth and claws, when the human comes with a Tank.
Thanos is arguably second in Power, because he Can defeat anyone, brute strength is overrated, Fate favors the well prepared, and nobody, NOBODY comes better prepared than the mad titan. Thanos will Always bring a Gun to a knife fight, and the gun will probably be a gattling gun. And for that, he deserves a title in the top 5 most powerful in the MU.

As usual, I can count on Kam to tell it like it is with The Mad Titan. People don't seem to realize that in all the MU only Galactus inspires more fear than Thanos. When you take into account his intellect and use of prep you could easily make a case for him being the second most powerful non-abstract in MU. Big G is obviously #1.

And Big G is NOT number one, and he ain't a "non-abstract".
Originally posted by Big SexyJuggernaut, yes...if you're looking to compare Cain Marko the man to others. Otherwise he's always Juggernaut. The IG and HOTU were only used one time, so not a regular extension of Thanos' power.
2. I notice most dismiss this for not bein g his own power. COuldn't the same be said for Ion, Parallax, Juggernaut, a gl ring, Stranges artifacts, Fates artifacts, etc
Originally posted by CreaseThanos is no doubt very dangerous as a force in the universe...but as I stated before, if you're only looking at intellect and prep, then Dr. Doom is in that category as well. Thanos has a major edge in brute strength, obviously, but Doom is just as resourceful, and has the achievements to back it up.

Originally posted by King KAMAbsolutely nothing? I take it you didn't read 'Secret Wars'. Doom is a major villain in the MU and can be, and has been, a threat on a cosmic scale, for the same reasons as Thanos...his intellect.
doom gets prep and does absolutley nothing, he is Okay but he has a fatal flaw, which would stop him from ever being too big of a threat, Doom is still only a human, and at that, he is a power hungry one, Doom tries to cut too many corners because like 99% of humans he is impatient, and this causes his plans to foil most times.
All villains have flaws...and Thanos is not without them, either.

But Doom is just more impressive. He started with nothing when he was born, he didn't even have any powers, money, family, nothing. Now he's a know threat to the Earth and at times to the universe and is considered as one of the most dangerous villains ever.
Thanos was already powerful when he was born, and was surrounded by technical gadgets. Doom makes his own gadgets, and they kick ass. He only has his intelligence and that's all he needs.
Doom doesn't need a monthly upgrade like the Mad Titan. Doom is Doom.

thank you, and not only that, how did Thanos get put in his place by Odin??? That statement is rediculous, Odin was thought to be WAYYYY too much for Thanos, so, Thanos going toe-to-toe with him, and even taking hard shots from gungir, and SNATCHING it from Odin, only proved that Thanos was stronger than everyone ever thought.That fight was a feat for Thanos, and a reality check for Odin.
You just keep looking at that fight through your Thanos decoder glasses, there, KK 🙄 I respect Thanos, but I can see when someone is taking a beating, and not causing his opponent to take as much as a step backward.

Technically you cant really count Galactus, he doest do things out of pure hatred such as Thanos, Big G does it because he must.

So now Thanos is "the second most powerful non-abstract in MU"... when will it stop... (starts crying).And Big G is NOT number one, and he ain't a "non-abstract".
Upon second thought you're right 🙁 . Both RKT and Mangog are more powerful. He's still the second-most feared name in the galaxy.
And Big G is not an abstract. Just because his power rivals that of abstracts and he's considered just as if not more important than most of them doesn't make him an abstract. He has a constant physical body. Eternity, Lord Chaos, Master Order, Chronos, Death etc are abstracts.
Sorry but you are wrong. Galactus is a true cosmic being, a sort of abstract being if you want. He was created by a cosmic force long time ago, has cosmic powers and is related (in a way) to Eternity and Death.
Not only that, but he has not a constant physical body, his appearance differs all the time. A Skrull sees him as a giant Skrull, a bug sees him as a giant bug and so on.
