Nah, my favorite Thanos story was by Keith Giffen, and he didn't look bad at all... in fact he had some good showings... very good showings. Ron Marz was pretty good too.
Name the issues. uhuh

Plus, Starlin also wrote some of Thanos's worst showings ever... IG #4. 😬
What happened?
Originally posted by Bad Ash231Well going off the tiop of me=y head because I dont pay attention for the most part who writes what I think he wrote Thanos issues 7-12 and he didnt look to shabby at all. He also wrote Annihilation I think and I do accept Drax killing him. I liked that story anyways and really did like what he did with Drax. He killed him but with a cheapshot and with new antiThanos powers he never displayed before.
Name the issues. uhuhWhat happened?
Originally posted by LarcenyI know exactly what you mean. I think its been supported now that Superman is more than capable of handing Darkseid an asskicking. Before it was argued now its accepted by all except a few.
I'm still baffled by the fact that were supposed to continually discount, discredit, and ignore all of DS showings that don't portray him how his fans would like. It's astonishing and actually quite ridiculous.

So Thanos acting completely out of character in a story and being beaten off panel with little to no story going on isnt a good reason to see it as a joke.
You make it sound like that hasn't happened to other characters.

Until you can prove its canon.
What the hell do I have to prove?
The GLX-Mas special has not been stated to be non-canon.

I don't know how it could be made any more clear. DS is weak, DS regains all his power, Superman smacks him around, DS flees. It's simple and it isn't like similar hasn't been done before.
Originally posted by LarcenyI know its pretty simple. But it angers Darkseid fans and they thought dc was going to restore him to greatness not make him more pathetic than ever.

Thanos with a depowered IG/Power Gem...
Got staggered by Cyclops.
Got stabbed by Wolverine.
Got staggered by Iron Man (because Cyclops cut off an earlier blast, and apparently Thanos was pushing forward, as he almost fell).
Got punched around by Drax/Hulk.
Got punched back by Namor/She-Hulk.
Pretty much KO'ed by Masterson Thor... twice.
A punch by Thor forced him back.
Got sucked into Cloak.
Drax/Firelord almost toppled him.
Spider-Man knocked him back with a kick.
Nova moved him with a punch.
😐
