I personally don't subscribe to the idea that Thanos is somehow vastly superior or stronger to elite top tiers such as Thor or Superman. I simply haven't seen the feats.
I don't get all hot and bothered like some posters do when scans of Thanos doing inconsequential shit like pimp slaps and head slams are posted.
If Thor was 100, Superman would be around 100-105, while Thanos would be at around 120-150 or so from what I've seen. And I'm being generous there in my opinion. If I were to go by high feats like the Thanos camp is so fond of doing, the gap would be a lot smaller if it was there at all.
Of course I'm an ignorant fanboy according to wise posters such Kurupt, so what do I know?
Anyways, I'm off.

You've seen Thanos match warrior madness Thor with the power gem. What more do you need? 😄
I mean, wouldn't you be one of the first to argue that version of Thor absolutely smokes Superman, or even that group which fought Virtue and Vice Despero?

Thor was not in Warrior Madness first and Thor having the Power Gem doesn't actually mean much to me. If he had harnessed it's power then you'd have something. Even in that issue it was stated Thor would give Thanos a good scrap/fight any time. It seemed to imply that while normally they'd have a good fight -I personally picture them going toe to toe with Thanos eventually getting the edge after a good fight- the Power Gem gave Thor the needed boost to arguably look superior in a purely physical confrontation (Cue the whining.) I'm absolutely fine with that.
He wouldn't absolutely smoke Superman but I'd definitely favor him. To be fair we should use OWAW levels for Superman in my opinion. OWAW was to Superman what Blood and Thunder was to Thor. An event that basically portrayed them as beyond their peers when they cut loose.
I don't recall ever arguing that and I never will. If that team was even slightly competent they should put Thor down.
Good night.

This is a common, yet wholly unjustified, misconception that all his clones were weaker. The only ones referenced to be weaker was the one that fought Ka-Zar and the Ironman-spliced one.
Shows that Thanos was suppose to dispose of the all his 'new" Clone because they were getting to powerful. This means that all his past clones were weaker because he wouldn't have continued if it was as powerful as he was.
Now out of all the newer Thanos clones the one that was shown in Infinity Abyss were the most powerful< excluding armour> of all the clones Thanos had made.
Considering Thanos kept improving his model and decided to not use them because they were getting powerful and that the most powerful out of these newer clone were only maybe = to Thanos which wasn't the case by the way.
Shows that Thanos > Thanos clones.
Might I ask are we talking about DC-1 superman or DC-2 because DC-1 has a pretty good chance of smoking Thanos. DC-2 Not so much maybe like a 2-3/10 for DC2 Superman. DC-1 I'll give a slight edge depending on the battle ground. If it's earth Solar System and he has prep time I'm giving it to big blue because he'd probably just sit in the sun supercharging himself to the absurd levels he's famous for pulling out. No prep time DC-1 Superman I'll give a 6/10 in favor mostly because DC-1 Superman powers just get so ridiculous I'm not exactly sure sometimes where his strength ends and where the PIS begins.

Oh, ok so....I guess SS is below Supes and Thor then?
Originally posted by kgkgYou're backwards. Thanos deactivated them because they were too dangerous and powerful. He only realized that after the clone that Thor fought and the Celestial Quest one.

Those Infinity Abyss clones were already more powerful than Thanos. So your progressive logic fails. Details below.

Not: "The four most powerful." The actual statement is not exclusive, just descriptive. You could have been able to build on your progressive ABC thinking to infer that the one that Thor fought was weaker, if they were indeed, the absolute four most powerful. But they were not. So you can't. Let's stop butchering English.

And that Warrior, the Thanosi that was spliced with Gladiator's DNA, was actually five times more powerful than the original Thanos:
Even moreso, Omega actually far outclassed Thanos. So what do we have? Two clones who are outright more powerful than Thanos, Omega and Warrior. Two others who rivaled Thanos' power, X and Mystic. These four were among the most powerful ones, but not necessarily the four most powerful. The one that Thor fought was only described as a "higher powered" one. Thanos doesn't really describe the Celestial Quest one.
I'm not suggesting that the Thanosi which Thor fought was the most powerful. But trying to act like all his clones were far inferior power-wise and could never match the original Thanos is attenuation. And in two instances, outright wrong.
