Well, Jimmy had the power of all the New Gods.... so that's kinda like Darkseid taking Superman, then about ten thousand top tier characters... then Orion.So if you look at it that, it's alot more impressive than Tyrant's feat.
What Val's laugh gif is saying is this: "What did Jimmie do that's even remotely close to Superman level?" He smacked DS with a bridge then got owned. Far as I can tell, that's the biggest feat for supposedly "all the powers of the New Gods" ...clearly he wasn't written on par with them combined, or if he was we have no way of knowing by his feats.
Not trying to downplay DS's 3 battles in a row. It's just not uber-impressive. Exchanging a few blows with Kal, owning Jimmy, then a legit fight with Orion.

And didn't look at all superior to any of them.A 'true' transcendent character - Tyrant - took down half the heralds(including the Silver Surfer), Gladiator, Beta Ray, Jack of Hearts, Ganymede, and then proceeded to stalemate a powered up Thanos.
I notice an asymmetry. Do you?
I beg to differ ol' chum.
Jack of Hearts, Ganymede, BRB and Gladiator are not on Superman's or Shitty Olsen's level. But Olsen doesn't have that many feats, so I suppose that point is moot :/
But I'll play, Fernus was stalemated by Plastic Man, Mangog had a hard time beating Thor, The doctor has a bunch of low feats...
Originally posted by SoljerI guess what I was getting at is; it was Drax's ultimate destiny/purpose to kill Thanos -- much like it was Orion's ultimate destiny/purpose to kill DS, [this is why they were compared in the first place]. 🙂
Again; two different definitions.
Either way, Orion mustn't be moved to HH. 👇

True - but it wasn't Drax's destiny that allowed him to kill Thanos.
He had a specific anti-Thanos power that literally radiated as he came closer to Thanos.
Orion had no comparable boon.

Cool beans,
but I didn't compare them because of the power they may, or may not have, radiated. 😛
Fair enough, I must have simply misinterpreted you when you said;
"Orion does not have the feats to warrant that.
He was destined to 'kill' Darkseid -- much like Drax was destined to kill Thanos."
It felt, to me, like you were saying Orion's killing of Darkseid was parallel to Thanos' death at the hands of Drax - not only in fate/story respects, but also respective to power.

But I was only speaking in regard to Orion and Drax's destiny/fate/purpose -- which was ultimately 'killing' DS and Thanos.
