Doesn't really Matter. Thanos is out of his league when it comes to PC kryptonians. So the feat of Supergirl isn't really up for debate against Any current characters. None can replicate PC kryptonian feats.

Well I look at it like this.

Spectre was so amped up, that he was seeing things undreamt of by even his creator, (God).

Yet even at this level, he still couldn't "kill" AM.

So Supergirl almost succeeded at what even Spectre himself couldn't do?

I dunno about that. srug


Spectre fought him AFTER he absorbed the power of the Anti Matter Universe, Supergirl fought him before he ever did that.

I understand this.

I'm just saying that AM had still overtaken nearly ALL of the DCU at the point where Supergirl "nearly killed" him, not to mention that just before this, AM was slapping Superman around like a b*tch 😂.

And since COIE meant the death of Supergirl, IMO DC had to make her go out with a bang, (hence the "nearly killing" AM line).

Her sacrifice couldn't be totally in vain right?

I understand that it was a low showing for AM in all likelihood, but the thing is that it's pretty much the ONLY showing we have to go on for him, it seems unreasonable to simply assume that his power was being severely downplayed solely to make Supergirl look good. We don't know for sure how much power he gained from the destructions of those other universes, we only know that he became much more powerful after he absorbed the power of the Anti Matter Universe(which was much stronger at that point).

Keep in mind, I'm not trying to call a winner on this match just address the people talking about Monitor being on another level from Thanos. I don't think there's anywhere near enough proof about Pre Crisis Monitor's power to properly decide just how powerful he really was(Kinda like Super Man Prime, all hyperbole with almost no feats for the most part).

The Monitor seemed as powerful as The Anti Monitor when he had the power of one or a few universes. Thanos is at best a low skyfather. He's severly Outclassed.

He didn't have the POWER of a universe until he absorbed the Anti Matter Universe.

UM No. If I remember correctly, the AM universe was the EQUAL of ALL of the Positive Universes. IF he absorbed the AM universe, it would have been equal to every Matter Universe that had been destroyed and added to the AM universes power.

All of which added up to nearly a full universe. But it doesn't matter because Monitor doesn't have that much power. He has less power than AM had when he was nearly wasted by Supergirl.

I do think AM's power was somewhat being downplayed though, or Supergirl was greatly amped up.

Not only was AM schooling PC Superman just before Supergirl confronted him, but look at it from DC's perspective.

They were loosing Supergirl.

They weren't going to have her go down without a strong showing.

And AM's armor only able to be breached by a PC Kryptonian, can be perceived as either a good or poor showing IMO.

But we both have our opinions on the matter, neither can be called wrong. 🙂

I agree.

Where Monitor himself is concerned, he's a lot of talk and little to no action.

He has some feats, but none of which would lead me to think he is unquestionably more powerful then Thanos at his best.

It would be a good fight IMO.

Sounds good to me. Like I said I was just addressing the fact that people where giving Monitor a lot of undue credit by saying that he was out of Thanos's league. Especially if you take into consideration that Thanos took down an evolved cosmic cube 1 on 1 before he died.

Hey it and his owning of the Fallen One are all we have to go by in regards to his upgrade before he died. He was only able to beat the Maker because she'd taken mortal form, so even though there was some CIS on her part, I don't think we should rob Thanos of his win. The guy was able to stand up to Odin before that upgrade, so I don't see it as all that big of a stretch for him to be able to take down Maker after it(when again, it's just about all there is to go by).

Yeah I'd still call it a feat...... a crappy feat........ But a feat nonetheless.

The only real discription of Anti-Monitor's power before he absorbed the AM universe was that he was... Stronger then Monitor.

Also, not only did Supergirl break his shell and nearly kill him, but she was severely weakeneed in the AM universe. She lost her invulnerability, and I'm willing to bet that her strength suffered to.

On top of that, his second shell was cracked by some Qwa-Bolts from the Qwardians. And Wally West ripped to to shreads.

And the Monitor was MUCH weaker. Thanos can win this.

Ug. WHen did Thanos get so powerful? He can't beat Galactus. I'd wager the monitor at full power is at least equal to a well fed Galactus. This is the PC age for christ's sakes.

Yeah. I'd totaly agree, except that Post Crisis Wally west destroyed Anti-Monitor's armor, and PC Supergirl/Superman were WEAKENED in the AM universe.

And Monitor was far, far weaker then that.

Even a weakened PC krytonian>>> Thanos. And Post Crisis Wally is actually Superior to Pre crisis Flash.

Is he superior to Thanos?

And considering that Superman was hurt by having some rocks fall on him, I'd say he was substantialy weakened.

Supergirl's heat-vision was still working, so my guess is she wasn't as depowered as Superman was.
