Thanos has never killed the Surfer either...

He still went toe to toe with him and took his best. Of course he had to use the gun as he couldnt ko Thor with the power gem.

Thanos has beaten the Surfer into submission and it doesnt matter if he has killed him or not before.

Simple, actually.

Thanos has been cut and impaled. Apocalypse has a means to cut and/or impale him.

There's no evidence whatsoever that Drax is the only character capable of impaling him, additionally, on panel evidence clearly shows other characters besides Drax being capable of bludgeoning and cutting him. Moreover, Apocalypse has, on panel, impaled another Eternal, Ikaris, through the chest via a spike applied during a bear hug.

Furthermore, regardless of whether it's Drax removing his heart or another character is inconsequential, the on panel evidence would clearly suggest that characters other than Drax can harm him by these means due to his prior injuries. Impalement is simply a puncture wound, and Thanos's body has been compromised by these means priorly by other characters. There is no evidence that would suggest that if any character other than Drax impaled him he would shrug it off because they are not his "kryptonite", and alternately, there is evidence that clearly depicts other characters without Drax's properties have harmed Thanos, and heart removal is a fatal wound, regardless of the source.

So, as I'll state again, it's not the most popular outcome, but it's feasible, and the evidence to support it exists, regardless of popular opinion.

Drax is a unique situation. He is the only one who has killed him in this manner. So therefore its safe to assume its not that easy and the cheapshot thing had something to do with this let alone he had just been resurrected with this ability. For one Apoc isnt going to be facing Thanos with his back turned and even if he was he could barely phase him. Thanos can regenerate. Listen to what the comic is telling you. Drax is the only one who could do it. hence the silver bullet theory.

with a nerve touch

Nope incorrect. Thanos was playing around anyways. Preresurrection Thanos killed Gamora anyways when they actually threw down.

Thanos didn't say that anyway, he said it would have killed anyone weaker than him.

I know...some people just cant intepret comics sometimes.

thanos wins. he is just too durable. plus apocalypse is never written properly*. (they forgot to tell us how he "got rid of" thor and company when he took over the world in all those many timelines apocalypse rules over)

this thread is just ridiculous. hell Surfer could stomp Apocalypse, hand to hand, what does Apocalypse possibly have to offer that is in anyway - +anyway+ - more of a physical threat to Thanos than Surfer was?

might as well have Gambit fight Galactus 😐.

I don't see how people can claim that Drax is the only character that can harm Thanos physically when he's been physically harmed (bludgeoned and cut), on panel, by other characters such as Gamora and Wolverine. Impalement and cutting are in the same vein of attack, and it's been proven that characters other than Drax are capable of doing so. I see no logical reason why Apocalypse shouldn't be able to impale Thanos. Silver bullet or not, an arm through the chest is an arm through the chest, and claws to the grill is claws to the grill. Apocalypse was also able to impale Ikaris, also an Eternal, through the chest by morphing his own chest into a spike while he bear hugged Ikaris. I think it's feasible. Unpopular, but feasible. I still see the battle as a draw, however, but some of you are grasping at straws with your explanations of Thanos not being able to be effected through physically means when on panel evidence would contradict that.

The writer and editor of that particular issue where Drax killed Thanos have explicitly said since Drax was unique and had powers that negated Thanos' powers, force fields and Eternal powers. Drax even says on panal he has Thanos' killing stroke encoded into his DNA. They weren't even subtle about it, they repeated over and over Drax was the only one who could kill Thanos. You remember the green aura around Drax that was never seen before or since that encounter, that was his special Thanos kryptonite kicking in. Drax is just a special case when it comes to Thanos, hell he even physically ripped through Thanos' force fields when even Galactus had to exert himself to pierce them, Drax pulled them apart with his hands like they were nothing, what does that tell you? Current Drax isn't even that strong but Thanos' force fields were like ripping through paper to him.

Drax is far from the only one who could kill Thanos.

It's just that killing Thanos was Drax' sole purpose.

Was Odin physically trying to hurt Thanos?
Thanos who can absorb/redirect energy pretty easily?

Like I've made it clear a bunch of times earlier, I think Thanos is far easier to hurt physically.

Like I said, many already give wins to Thanos, well because he is Thanos.

This is one example. Even Thanos wins, it won't be so easily like you say in a pure physical match and he won't destroy him.


Thanos beat the silver surfer to death.. hes insane durability took multiple shots from Odin, and Thanos was still standing.

And Thanos has been sent far back by hits from Thor.

Logic, eh?

Thanos doesn't have a lot of good physical showings.

Drax was the only one who could tear Thanos' heart out in the way he did it. Apoc has no chance here.

When does Odin try to get all physical on opponents. Seriously, who has beaten the shit out of Thanos physically then. I want to hear this. I cant believe this thread has gone on as long as it has considering this is kinda spite here. Thanos would absolutely decimate Apocalypse.

"That attack would have killed anyone but me"

seems more like a testament to Gamora not being strong enough to hurt him.

Odin doesn't. This doesn't mean that Thanos can't absorb and/or redirect energy, now does it?

Nobody has beaten Thanos physically, bar Drax. Just like no one has ever beaten Apocalypse physically, no one. Unfortunately for Thanos, he won't get to use his forcefields and energyblasts like he did against the Champion.

With the Power Gem... lulz. Also, he was sent on his knees from Cyclops in the same issue...
And unless he was absolutely toying with them (which seems like the case), logic dictates that it's pis (the whole issue).

🙂

Cable had a good run with him... ermm

So... Apoc is as strong, and durable as Champion with the PG?

You mean the time when Apoc needed him for the Twelve and Cable broke his bones hitting him?
