I dunno if you remember or not, but I'm one of the people arguing that Superman was stronger than the likes of Beta Ray and Thor. I was one of the people POSTING all his uber feats.Doesn't mean I honestly believe he would have a chance in hell at Thanos. The Surfer and Superman have, arguably, similar durability. And Thanos friggin ONE-SHOTS the Surfer. Thor and Superman have similar Strength (especially a Warrior Madness, power gemmed Thor), and Thanos laughed in his face.
Meh, I like Superman. Quite a bit. And I won't lie, I like Thanos too...
I just don't see Kal pulling it out against the Mad Titan.
I think people also forgetting that Thanos wields mystical energies tapped from a diff. dimension, if i remember correctly Odin comminted about it being similar to his own power back in that Blood and Thunder crossover... Add that to his incredible strength that could also be amp through the used of cosmic energies.. That is Superman weakness against Thanos, we all know that his biofield allows mystical sources to pass it, right there his durability is cut in half.. This match would look like how Thanos put Surfer to near death.. Supermans vibration think he copied from Flash would work against solid object but against energy shields or energy blast i doubt it will, energies fluctuate back an forth it would be quite diff. to vibrate through those if its even possible...

Not only that, but they ignore the fact that Thanos also has a jobber aura. Characters such as Thor and Surfer always forget half of their powers when facing Thanos.
He's just powerful, is all.

A couple pages later.
Now, how many times exactly, has Surfer fought Thanos? So, we can say he completely forgets his powers? And how long have those fights lasted, so we can guage how he could have used his powers?

OK. What are these powers?
1. Jumping ability : he can't jump, end of story. Maybe he jump over Pip the Troll, that's about it. Some claim he can jump from continent to continent like Hulk, I say : scans please.
2. Light speed reflexes : he doesn't have them. He never used light speed reflexes, and the very few times he did seem to react pretty fast, are very debatable.
3. Transforming matter at will (even turning Superman into stone) : he did this only once, in a very old comic, maybe 30 years ago. Thanos powers were never defined (was it Thanos himself ? His spaceship ? His implants ?), and him getting killed and resurrected again, and with changing powers... nobody knows if he still can do that stuff these days. And even if he could, it's very very debatable if it would work on Superman.
4. Magical abilities : despite the assumptions of some members, he is no dr. Strange, never will be too. Dr. Doom, who is more or less average in magic, is a much much better sorcerer than Thanos ever will be.
5. Strength : ah the old "strength topic". Very easy : he doesn't have the feats of Superman, so until I see him let's say pushing a moon or picking up an island, I say Superman is stronger. Fair is fair, no ?
For those who disagree : name me a strength feat of Thanos that Superman couldn't do ?
6. Flying : he can't fly. I don't care a bit if he's an Eternal, Thanos can't fly.

Stronger ? Based on what exactly ? It can't be feats.Durable ? I'll show that I'm a nice guy : IF Thanos is more durable - you see the word IF there, right ? - it won't be much.
Not that he is more durable. I think they are pretty equal.

So then people saying Thanos survived a blast from odin as a durability feat, or fighting many top tiers is also wrong becuz it's not written by the same writer's who write for Superman. To say Thanos can whoop on 3 top tiers is wrong with ur reasoning becuz in Superman's universe, every one is shown to be stronger anyway. according to your logic. Basically ur just not being fair. How else can you compare durability if not by using similiar examples? All of thanos' fights are subjective since we dont' know how strong the hulk was at the time of the fight, we don't know how much power odin was really pumping out. But the black hole comparison, is a DIRECT comparison of feats.
One week gone, and you still dont make a jib of sense.
So we passed to : " Professor Hulk isent top tier (even if the comic showings hes got against other top tiers prove it), to " Thanos never beat a top tier with strength only " (even tho, i have already showed that he did, without anything to show it was skill only) to " the top tiers of the DC universe are stronger? (did i got this one rigth?)
When are you actually going to backup those claims i wonder. Will it be your first resolution for the new year that is about to arrive?

You don't know what I was responding to. So keep your foor out of your mouth. It was a discussion between me and someone else. If your going to respond to the tail end of something then please, read the entire convo first. Thanks. Don't try and look important by insulting and you dont' know what I was responding to.
