H/P Doomsday v.s. Thanos

Jimmy I have heard of you becuz if i recall correctly someone said that you created Darkseid respect threads either here or on another forum.

I want your opinion on a Darkseid vs Thanos confrontation please. How would it go down according to you??

It depends. I think Darkseid is more powerful than Thanos as in he has some uber energy powers that Thanos hasn't shown. So if they mostly relied on energy projection I would bet on Darkseid in a hell of a fight. If it came down primarily to a slugfest I think Thanos would win 7/10 because he seems noticably more durable when it comes to blunt force trauma. If they were pro fighters and Darkseid's chin was considered above average, Thanos' jaw would be iron. Basically, Thanos wins a fight up close while Darkseid wins at a distance.

It's not really an easy match-up though, because Thanos is one of the most consistent comic book characters while Darkseid widely varies. I think Darkseid has much higher top showings than Thanos and far greater lows. If you focus just on Darkseid's top stuff like a lot of people on this board do I would see him as above Thanos. If you focus almost exclusively on his low showings like they do at SHC then Thanos would stomp him.

No no.

I know you from elsewhere.

Back to debating about comics?

Okay, then who are you? If you know me from elsewhere then you should at least say where. Otherwise, what's the point of your post?

I'm a bit hurt you don't recognize me.

After all, I was the champion of Darkseid while you were still all about Spiderman.

I had my suspicions but I don't like making assumptions.

Hah.

Hows tricks?

Russel linked me to a certain thread. For the record I really don't post anymore. I'm just having a bit of fun here every once upon a blue moon. The only comic I read consistently is Invincible. I'm not wasting my time on any of the flame wars that place loves so much. It's ridiculous. The only discussions that get me "riled up" these days are about issues that matter.

And I've seen you say you got me into Darkseid more than once while lurking. This is false. I got interested in Darkseid (and Orion) from Lord Majestros' debates with rc over Action Comics#586.

Good to hear.

That certainly didn't use to be the case, I think we can both agree.

Now lets not be disingenuous, Jimbo.

You used to credit me with getting you into the character, way back when. The fact that I don't support you, haven't supported you in years, doesn't mean you have to lash out.

Trust me, its not something I brag about. Its not something I get mad props for or anything.

Regardless, I hope you are doing well. Hopefully you've found your peace.

I can't think of a single time I've said such a thing. I'm not being disengenous -- I simply don't believe it's true. I never got along with rc, so why would I credit his posts with getting me into the character if I was being petty?

Lord Majestros and rc debated Darkseid vs. Superman numerous times prior to Apokolips Now. I eventually bought Action Comics#586 and liked both Orion and Darkseid from then on. In fact I remember posting a thread about it the day after I bought the comic and getting into a debate with Pillow Biter/Voyeur over Orion/Superman.

Discussions with you may have interested me further, but it was the debates between Lord Majestros and rc, well before I started talking to you, that got me interested to begin with. And I don't think I've ever said anything to the contrary.

I think you're remembering incorrectly. Which one of us has the insane memory, again? For instance the fact that I remember you're part Turkish and like Led Zeppelin? I think my memory is a little bit more vivid with exact details than yours. And I'm not saying that out of ego or spite. Like I said, I could really care less about comic book message board feuds.

I agree. Thanos loses without BFR. H/P DD is a monster.

See Thanos' fight with Champion when he had the Power Gem. If Doomsday started to get the better of him HTH, Thanos would be smart enough to give himself time to breath with a force field, then he'd use energy blasts to wear DD down from a distance. It would take awhile, but I think Thanos could eventually KO him.

ie,
The version which took Radiant's energy attacks, Darkseid's OB, Superman's HV, and Waverider's chronal attacks, without even slowing down?

Thanos would take this particular battle for a reason which most have already mentioned -- but a force-field mixed with a few energy attacks at a distance is hardly how he would do so. srsly

He had adapted to The Radiant's energy due to their previous battle where Radiant had killed him, and Waverider actually froze him, although yes he ended up adapting to Waverider's energy pretty fast while he was frozen. Darkseid's blast actually left Doomsday incoherent, needing a few moments to recover.

I'd read H/P.

Anyway, are we not counting the stuff from DD Wars and OWAW, given that's the same version of Doomsday?

If by 'incoherent' you mean, DD got up almost immediately after Darky was done with his little attack -- Then you are correct. 😉

When someone specifically states "H/P Doomsday" in the OP -- That's the version I tend to stick with.

When you say almost immediately, do you mean as in the ground had time to cool off, and DS had time to do a monologue immediately? And I remember DS point blank range blast pwned Cyborg.

Darky hit DD with 2 consecutive blasts of Omega, rubble fell over DD, and Darky only had time to say "at the feet of Darkseid", before DD got up and pwned him.

So yes -- almost immediately. 😊

Yes he oneshotted cyborg after superman bought him the time he needed to recover from the asstomping that doomdsay handed him.

As if it matters. DS is leagues more poweful now than he was portrayed then. The present is what counts.

What?

1. Darkseid hit Doomsday with ONE blast, which sent him flying and buried him under rubbled

2. Darkseid strolled over to Doomsday's body (which appeared to be a good distance away), made a somewhat long-winded speech ("at the feet of Darkseid" being the end of that speech), melted the rubble with a heat beam, and walked away

3. After the melted rubble had dried and become integrated into the ground, effectively "burying" Doomsday, he bursted out, grunting as he crawled out of the ground.

Doomsday was clearly incapacitated until after Darkseid had walked away, at which point he recovered.
