- Thanos can jump from continent to continent

- Thanos can fly

- Thanos is the strongest being in the Marvel Universe

- Thanos is dr. Strange's equal when it comes down to magic

- Thanos manhandled Odin

- Thanos is an incredible martial arts fighter

- Thanos never loses, and when he does, it's part of the plan

In the beginning it's funny, but after a while my head starts to hurt.

I know Thanos can beat Superman. Why not ? He has all the tools needed. If he can get his big purple hands around Superman's throat, he'll beat him up.

But Superman can also beat Thanos. Stronger, faster, just as durable and very versatile.

This thread would have been long dead if the Thanos Worshippers would have the guts to admit Superman is stronger and waaaaaay faster. Oh, and just as durable.

The problem is, there is not enough Superman knowledge, and if there is, they only look at his low end feats, and compare them to Thanos' high end feats.

I don't know if Superman is more durable. The strength feats are debateable since Thanos has none. I dont think Superman can take an onslaught from Odin and walk right up to Odin. But Thanos for sure isn't going to get an easy win on Superman.

Oh, I also forgot his incredible light speed reflexes.

Wolverine cut Thanos, remember ? I don't agree it with, mind you, he shouldn't be able to stab him, but nevertheless he did.

Does anybody think Wolverine can cut Superman ?

Another thing : Thanos survived a black hole, but needed medical attention after that. Superman flew through two black holes and was just fine.

And I also never saw Thanos take the force of "a million nuclear blasts".

That's why I think Superman is even more durable than Thanos.

Probably not

Cutting Thanos doesn't mean anything, hes Eternal of Titan, you could cut him into a million pieces and he could still live (the Drax thing is a special case). All Eternals are practically indestructable and hes the most powerful.

And Marvel and DC may simply differ in how dangerous going through a black hole is.

Trying to insinuate that a DC black hole isn't that tough compared to a Marvel black hole, is a bit childish.

Despite the sheer goofyness of that feat, it did happen. On the other hand, due to supermans bioshield or whatever that layer of something over him is, i dont think thats fair analigy and im not sure what you ment by it

It makes this board look like a bastion of DC bias. I've seen it argued that the silver surfer can speedblitz every speedster on DC Earth at once.

I like how every time Superman beats someone powerful it's pis or jobbing. Yet when Thanos does it it's fine.

ive seen it argued that since superman heald a black hole in his fist, he cannot be hurt by anyone "below a black hole", whatever that means.

Thier are rediculous arguments from both sides, marvel and DC

dont get it twisted

That's no where near as annoying as the pretend current superman is still at pre crisis level argument.

Call it what you like, I think its a valid argument. How many people do you know that have gone through a black hole? How many do the people at Marvel and DC? Its open to their own interpretations.

SO basically everything in DC is just a weaker version of Marvel since thier black holes aren't even the same. even tho both operate ont he real life principles of Physics when talking about things like gravity, weight, black holes, inertia and ect.

Pretending that comic book writers operate by anything remotely resembling "real life principles of physics" when writing stories about men who fly through black holes is beyond ridiculous.

but you're missing the point. let me put it to you this way: what's sillier- assuming that all writers across marvel, DC, image, and dark horse have the exact same idea of how strong a black hole is (nevermind that they may be different sizes, much like suns) and how it will affect their characters

OR

Accepting that writers often take liberties with their stories, so the effect a black hole has will differ from comic to comic, and writer to writer?

Hell, in early superman comics, Superman couldnt get near a sun because it was too hot and he'd burn up. Other comics have him hanging out in the sun like it's nothing.

these things vary.

You can't use this argument when having a character with a length and history like Superman fight a character like thanos with many less appearances, and thus, many less chances to job or get jobbed. You have to take the hieght of their feats and compare. your entire response almost seems to smack of favoritism. But in all honesty, Thanos has never smacked around a superman type character to my knowlege. Herc and Hulk are both slow as **** and not nearly as durable as Superman. Thor isn't even as Durable. None of them are as fast. Hell, Despero has a better showing against top tiers than Thanos does. Despero beats The very creme of the crop and more than 3 at a time. This thread shoudl really be how close to Despero in strength is Thanos really? Cuz he is most def under him.

considering my statement to you is how the effects of things like black holes and suns can vary from writer to writer, I have NO idea why you chose to go off on a bizarre "thanos is overhyped!!" rant, ignoring the issue I brought up entirely.

but since you asked:

Thanos has fought Champion with the power gem, Warrior Madness Thor with the Power Gem, and Drax with the power gem and defeated them with ease. All three had by definition UNLIMITED strength- Champion in particular smashed a planet in one hit that same issue and survived the destruction as if it was nothing.

All three of those individuals= stronger than superman.

Thanos has punked the Surfer, The Runner, and The fallen one on more than one instance, again with little difficulty. Speed blitzes from these three did next to nothing. All three of these have speed far faster than superman does, in addition to cosmic energy generation and great durability.

these three= faster than superman.

Thanos has taken shots from Tyrant, Odin, and Galactus and lived through the ordeal. All of these three have strength, speed, stamina, energy projection and in Odin's case magical ability that dwarf anything superman is capable of.

Damage from these three= far more than superman is capable of dishing out.

Thanos was designed to be a team wrecking universal threat and has pretty much always been this way, outside of some VERY early appearances (someone mentioned an issue of spiderman where he robbed a bank....?) and takes out superman level characters all the time. Superman, on the other hand RARELY takes on anyone Thanos' level without outside help.

This fight if it ever actually happened would last all of six seconds, 3 of which would involve superman being teleported into the middle of a red sun, and the other three consisting of Thanos laughing his ass off about it while he busies himself with more significant issues.
