Ive always thought the IB as a low-end abstract, below his progenitors and the likes of Stranger, and definitely lower than G...
i say stalemate...
I am sorry but this thread is laugable Thanos isnt beating in-betweener unless its based on prep,pis,cis. And to the guy who said Thanos is only a little bit below in-betweener now thats an extremly funny joke even Starlin Thanos should be nothing to in-betweener. And the fight between Galactus and In-betweener was an awsome showing from big G the mighty Jobber considering what in-betweener represents him losing to anyone below his masters is preety hard to swallow.
Originally posted by PriestNah, All Thanos says in that scan is:
at least Galactus's hat fell off when thanos attacked him 😛this is intresting tho, these scans are of thanos freeing the In-Betweener. thanos says that he'l try to match the In-betweener Power, and from the scan it shows that they may be close in terms of power. Also we can see the In-betweener taping into the soal gem, maybe for and extra power up, who knows...

If the In-Betweener is more powerfull than thanos, its probally by a little margin. its deffinalty would not be a curbstomp imo.
"Even through the prison wall I can sense the awesome forces set loose within that globe."
"I do my best to match them"
Thanos dosen't say his powers are even close to IB's, he just says that he's going to try his best to match them.
Either way, nothing from that scan would lead me to believe Thanos's powers are even close to IB's.

Oh, but you think Strange can stalemate him, and even beat him?
Give me a break.You know what the funny thing is... Galactus was hungry when he fought IB...
So, yes. He can, they can't...ever. He's literally on another level of power than Thanos and even Galactus.
Did you even see the Galactus IB fight? He didn't use any of his powers, he fought h2h like an idiot.

Considering that In-Betweener needed Thanos's help to break out the spell, they are not excatly feeble compared to In-Betweener's. At least in pure blasting power. Of course In-Betweener would beat him.
Thanos helped because his power wasn't negated by the prison, not because he's on the level of IB....he isn't.

He fought HtH because his blasts had no effect on Galactus, and his powers did nothing either, since Galactus was unique.
In betweener's main power is that he is able to generate a blast which will kill anything because it generates a force that is the opposite of their life force. This power does not work on unique entities with no counter for their powers though, mostly meaning Silver Surfer, Galactus. He was able to kill an Elder of the Universe with a single shot even though he was supposedly banned from Death's realm.
The reason why in-betweener got beat down in the Nexus was because that is where his powers were at their weakest, at the even point between Order and Chaos. It was the opposite while crossing over realities through a black hole; his powers were at their strongest.
In Betweener still had the majority of his powers inside of the containment bubble where Order and Chaos had placed him; as soon as the bubble was broken he was at his weakest, which Thanos planned upon and gave him the cosmic backhand.
The fact that Thanos came close to matching In Betweener's power while he was in the bubble is an excellent feat, but Thanos said that he was trying as hard as he could to match him, implying that he fell somewhat short.
To this day, the Thanos quest 1 and 2 remain two of my favorite comics of all time. The art was top notch and Thanos showed real trickery to overcome his opponents; he knew that he could not get what he wanted by brute force alonen, it was his intellect that was truly his best talent, not his physical prowess.

Yeah, L & C together are above Galactus. IB's power is basically limitless, he can do whatever he wants. His only actual weakness is he isn't all-knowing, he can be out smarted. Out powered? Not by most.
i dont quite agree...
despite lame showings, Galactus is up there with Eternity and Death as the third force of nature, one without the other would result in an imbalance in the universe, at least thats what i think...
I would place IB around Mistress Love or Master Hate level, not a walk in the park for Thanos, but also not impossible for him to defeat...
purely my opinion...

Why would you place the IB around Mistress Love and Master Hate level? Does anyone even know how powerful they actually are? Are there any feats of them besides in the IG series?
The IB is at Galactus level. In my opinion, the whole reason why he couldn't summon an opposing force to kill Galactus is because he IS the opposing force. Galactus is unique throughout the universe. He has no opposite. The In-Betweener is the personification of two opposing forces joined together.
