When exposed to both their weaknesses (let's say Drax vs Lex in a suit with all of Superman's weaknesses)... Superman has come out on top.
Nah...Thanos has never been ko'd by a top tier on panel. Drax was created to kill him. Doomsday took Superman to the limit and the both were down. That is before hunter and prey. So this Doomsday was much weaker. Supes has failed to beat other top tiers as well while Thanos hasnt lost to one on panel.
Thanos took on Odin who oneshotted the Surfer. The Surfer is more powerful by Supes and thats the majorities opinion. Odin failed to put him down and thats a testament to Thanos durability.
Is King of the World canon?
