As of late, Superman's done things his peers can only dream of doing. When in the JLA, most of the characters on the team are written down compared to in there own runs (DON'T bring up Batman, dammit... I said MOST).In combat, Darkseid has shown physical dominance over everybody. Literally, no one has shown him up physically except Superman (f*ck Orion... gah!).
In a book where it's WW vs. Superman, Diana can give him at least an OKAY run.
Then, put Diana in a match against Darkseid and what happens? She get's bitchslapped like nobody's business.
You have no proof of Thanos being physically superior to Darky.
If Thanos and Superman were to meet in a xover and go H2H, I [B]GUARANTEE
that Superman would beat him. [/B]
He likely would.
Do i think that he'd do it on his own merits, or because he's superman and thats the nature of comics?
The latter.
Proof of Darkseid being physically inferior to Thanos is the fact that Thanos has a history of being untouchable to Top tiers.
Superman is a top tier. Elite, and at the pinnacle sure, but still a top tier..
He has that showing against morg, but Darkseid has that showing against Raker.
Don't be mad at me because DC shows Superman beating Darkseid one month, and then stalemating Cap Marvel the next.
Or Wonderwoman.
And the fact that Thor had to have a powerup to even damage Thanos, is telling.
Thor is a peer of Superman.
Dumb Drax is a peer of Superman.
Surfer is a peer of Superman.
None of these people beat Thanos, barring the latest appearance of Drax, where it's alluded to that he's the Silver bullet to the Werewolf of Thanos.
The records can't be compared.
