An upgrade, which was facilitated by his possession of the HOTU. After he nuked the HOTU and reset everything, Thanos said he recreated his body, with the power he had before, and (I'm not sure of the exact wording of what he said), added extra upgrades just in case someone went after him. I've found that of all of Marvel's characters, Thanos is one of the least prone to PIS or PIS wins. He's just that damn good. Examples include beating the elders at their own games, the massive absorbtion feat of defeating Rot, the crazy fights, his stalemating Tyrant, going toe to toe with Odin.............,
just face it, the guy's a freaking beast. 😎

He didn't stalmate Tyrant, he was losing and his attacks wasn't even fasing Tyrant, it's why he had to use the orb instead. And still retreated even with that. Odin wasn't going all out, but it's still a good feat, just Thor when he was fighting Zeus.

HAHA Odin was in Asgard going all out.
Tyrant is just under Galactus and Thanos stood up to the POWER oh yeah.

He was stalemating Tyrant (albeit with the orb from Morg), don't belittle it. Of course he would have lost eventually, same as the Odin fight. But it's still a legitimate feat. Soleran, I'm guessing you're joking. Odin was not going all out, but he was putting out a good effort, and in Asgard. Anyway, both of those feats put him well above Despero in durability.

What comic are you reading?

Tyrant showed pain, and they were stalemated until Thanos said he was leaving.

"Further struggle is pointless. I have withstood you, and have obtained that which I have sought."
He does acknowledge that it was within Tyrant's power to kill him, but saying that he didn't stalemate him up til that point is selling Thanos short. 😬
Those fights are beside the point anyhow. Despero would have been killed by most of those blasts. The guy was uber in Virtue and Vice, but aside from that he's not near Thanos' level.

Ok here is a less sarcastic reply for you then.
It's fairly understood Thanos isn't at Skyfather and obviously Tyrant it above Skyfather.
So tell me what level is Despero at?

You post "Thanos stalmated Tyrant", not "Thanos with the orb put up a good fight against Tyrant for a while before reatreating"
Oh and Despero wins (who has fought Skyfather level beings and taken on the entire JLA, which I don't think Thanos would be able to accomplish either). 🙂

Yet I just posted proof that he was affecting Tyrant.
You're grasping, heavily.

That's called a stalemate. One couldn't get an edge over the other.

Wow, please, by all means be more vague.
He didn't take on the entire JLA. He took on four or five members who weren't fighting at their best ability. Also, Thanos has taken on more than one Skyfather level character as well.
You're also neglecting the fact that Aquaman was able to take on Despero by himself, and a bunch of sharks messed him up.
Do you really think Despero would be used in the tournament if he were Thanos level?
Seriously. 😐

Useless sentence.

That's getting butt kicked, so you need to use an item for help.

Please be more goofy!

He took on the entire JLA. They weren't fighting at their best, but it's still an impressive feat.
Also, Thanos has taken on more than one Skyfather level character as well.
Thanos has also taken on people less than skyfather level, and loss.

Was Despero KOed, like what M. Thor did to Thanos? Or Wolverine being able to cut Thanos. Didn't Despero still win under his own power? Yes he did!
Do you really think Despero would be used in the tournament if he were Thanos level?
Despero is above Thanos. 😕
Seriously. 😐
Despero seriously wins.

How exactly?he doesn't have any energy projection on thanos's level nor has he any feats to suggest immensely superior strength or durability,Mind-rape isn't an option as Thanos has stood up to Moondragon and X-man and Thanos can manipulate matter to a high degree,has despero ever done this away from the flame of Pytar?Despero loses due to Thanos equal level of Physical prowess,superior fighting skills and his overall versatility.

First of all, this is the JLA/Despero fight from Virtue and Vice:

He's fighting SIX people. Not the whole JLA. You just flat out LIED!
Also, most of his lower showings are clones. 😬

PWNED!!!!!
unless he is referring to the fight in Crisis of conscience.....and even then he was only winning due to Telepathy....not a viable option against thanos.
