Thanos vs Superman

This is the funniest piece of hypocrisy I've ever seen on it.

Thanos uses the Gems to amp his stats in the panels AFTER he ducks Surfer's attack, utterly *proving* that he wasn't using them to do so DURING the attack.

Regardless of this, as I've already stated (and has "conveniently" been ignored), Thanos can survive hits from Odin. Superman isn't doing *shit* to him. He could hit Thanos all day and Thanos would still enjoy his lunch.

Superman can be as fast as he likes. He won't hurt Thanos. And one simple thought from Thanos has Supes under his telepathic control.

And then Thanos gives him the beating of his life.

Seriously, Thanos beat down Surfer in 4 punches. Surfer shits all over Supes.

Look at the number of votes in the poll. Superman fail.

Energy blast durability is not the same as physical blunt force durability. Superman has resistance against tp and Thanos doesn't fight like that no where near on a regular basis.

Hurting SS only proves he can hurt Superman. It doesn't prove he can take Superman punches. As the late great Bruce Lee once said, "Boards don't hit back."

How's that? I mean, who can say if it wasn't concussion blasts or some shit like this?

You haven't proven Superman level punches can defeat Thanos. You can't even prove they can dominate Marevl, Orion, or Black adam. Thanos stands atop the mountain here. He has zero low showings and has consistently been portrayed as superior to anyone in superman's tier whereas he hasn't dominated/defeated many in his own tier.

Quan's got a point. He doesn't out the gate blitz often.

He used every single gem during the entire fight. He only "dampened his cosmic senses", meaning he could be surprised. But the powers of the gems were still his, and he used them during the entire fight.

Creating time portals is using the time gem, end of discussion. If he would have used only the power gem, he would get his ass kicked.

And one simple thought from Thanos has Supes under his telepathic control.

So where's the double standard?

Oh my God, this must be the most stupid post on this thread. And that says a lot ! [/B]

I mean after surfer almost takes the gauntlet from him he says he is going to regain the power of the other gems.

Thanos used only the power gem. No others.

Thanos: I need only to cut myself off from all sensory input from time, space, reality, thought and the soul. I would retain limitless power, yet not know my enemies' next move.

That's pretty clear for me. He retained all of the powers of the gems, but they couldn't warn him of any danger. He could be suprised, but other than that, he still was God. Every time you see the IG during the fight, all the gems are glowing very brightly, not only the power gem.

Besides, he used the space gem to teleport Thors hammer, and the time gem to create a time portal. How clear can it get ?

Later

Starfox: he truly has dempened his cosmic senses.

So Starfox confirms this when Hulk and Drax sent Thanos flying.

You don't see the flaw here?

Jesus this thread needs to die already.

You said that he cut himself off from the other gems, while quoting from in the comic, then in the same post, said he retained use of all the other gems.

He cut himself off from SENSORY INPUT of the other gems and not from their total power. This is clearly stated on panel and also shown (when he did feats using the other gems).

Black bolt you are a much better poster to be arguing this nonsense. I expect arguing mess like this from someone else.
But all that is moot anyway since I already defeated the feat another way.

Why? Superman is stronger and faster. Thanos is more durable to energy projection, has shields, and is strong enough to physically hurt Superman himself. This is a good debate which can show that speed kills.

Superman's advantages gives him the majority.

Sensory input that the gems will give you is not the same as their power.

You have problems with that concept, don't you ?

What don't you understand about "dampening your (cosmic) senses" ? He teleported Mjolnir (space gem) and created a time portal (time gem). All the gems were glowing very brightly by the way, whenever he used them.

Oh, here is a quote from comicvine

"Thanos is fully aware of the coming conflict. Mephisto arrives and advises Thanos to remove his omniscience to make the fight somewhat fair in the hopes of impressing Death."

There you have it. Checkmate they call it, I think.

Black Bolt, haven't you reached the point where you should have adequate reading comprehension skills? You're like 12.

Thanos only cut himself off from the sensory input. He still retained all the power of the Gems.

As someone who argued the same point bbz is right now but at the same time sees what makes people doubt it, the scan bbz brought up always makes me think i was correct

"I need only to cut myself off from all sensory input from time, space, reality, thought and the soul. I would retain limitless power, yet not know my enemies next move."

This statement accompanied by the fact that Thanos sent beings through time, turned Adamantium into rubber, Masterson into glass, teleported Mjolnir, grew into a giant etc. I honestly don't see what there is to debate. As clear as day imo.

Thanos had access to all the Gems. He simply cut himself off from the aspects that gave made omniscient and omnipresent.
