And Marvel today is the same size it was then, just differently arranged. My point still stands, Beyonder was missing that "drop of water", but thanos wasn't missing anything at all.
The way I was looking at it though....if Thanos had the HOTI in 1984-1985....he would've only had the power of "that drop of water"..since that is what all of Marvel was at the time...compared to the Beyonder. Thanos would not have had any control or jurisdiction over the Beyond Realm at that time. The Beyonder would've still been INFINITELY larger than the scope of the HOTI power.
However, since Thanos had the HOTI more recently....his power and scope encompassed both Marvel and the "former" Beyond Realm. You see the Paradox here? The HOTI wouldn't have been nearly as powerful THEN as it is NOW. I think it depends on WHEN the Beyonder and Thanos fight that determines the outcome of this battle. In Secret Wars....Thanos would've been stomped...apparently...since the HOTI wouldn't have encompassed the Beyond Realm at that time. Today, it would be atleast a stalemate. When Beyonder entered the Marvel Multiverse...he encompassed everything in this reality also....making him as powerful as Thanos was recently with the HOTI.
