I disagree here friend.
Originally posted by quanchi112 Thanos had to meet some resistance and wasnt just finding them lying around. Of course it was more difficult.
Guess who Galactus took the Soul Gem from, and who was with him? Thanos was caught off-guard and un-prepped, even as he was discovering what Galactus was doing.
Thanos has demonstrated a severe propensity for idiocy...unfortunately I can't upload my scans at the moment due to imageshack's bad servers, but you'll know what I"m talking about.
Captain Marvel 33...Thanos is busy using the powers of the cosmic cube on captain marvel and drax, gloating and toying with them. Captain Marvel notices that Thanos, in a huge tactical and idiotic manner, has casually tossed aside the cosmic cube. Captain marvel karate chops the cube, and Death is shown laughing at Thanos' incompetence.
Infinity Gauntlet...Thanos becomes Eternity, and the mindless, tortured Nebula takes the IG from Thanos, in a huge tactical and idiotic blunder.
Galactus had his equipment tampered with as well and wouldnt listen to Thanos. Thanos looked a helluva lot smarter than Galactus who looked rather idiotic and easy to fool. It seems all you have to do is tamper with his stuff.
Actually...it's Thanos' fault that Hunger even wanted to come into the 616 universe to begin with. That's right....everyone's so quick to blame Galactus, but he only gave Hunger the means to enter the reality...it was actually Thanos by collecting the IG that really made Hunger to take notice and direct his efforts toward 616 marvel. Yeah, it's Thanos' fault that Hunger even KNEW about the 616 universe. I'll provide the scans later.
Further, Galactus was essentially looking at data that so far, in all of his 40+ year history, is the ONLY thing that he has desired. I think that's easy for many to overlook, but you have to take it for what it is....above all else, above even his desire to survive-which is the one and only motivator for everything Galactus has done since 1966's FF #48 to last wednesday's Nova #14, aside from the point I'm about to make-is to rid himself of the perpetual hunger and slavery to it.
I don't know but if you've lived for 20+ billion years, and 1 day saw the possibility for the one thing you've desired since the literal dawn of time...I'm not saying it's an excuse, but Thanos has been duped and deceived by FAR less (see above concerning his desire for ultimate power).
Hunger even admitted that the only way to gain entry was to an entity "of considerable power and intellect" in order to breach a dimensional barrier, so Hunger needed someone who could easily perform that feat. Furthermore, Hunger states that he needed an "exceptionally gifted individual, but one that has a deep-seated weakness I could exploit"
So Hunger found the deep-seated weakness in the form of G wanting to rid the universe of his torment.
On a final note..Thanos has been manipulated and tricked by a creature FAR less than Hunger....Annihilus. Annihilus used Thanos for his own means, and only by using Moondragon was Thanos able to figure out what his plans were, and realize the fool that he was for siding with Annihilus.
True, Thanos had the better hand on Galactus through the series. But Thanos literally did nothing but stand by while T&A put the beat-down on Big G...and it was only by coincidence that Thanos ran into T&A...THanos had originally sent the Fallen One to the Kyln to retrieve the Beyonder, of all people, to use against Galactus, but finding the Maker seemingly dead, Fallen One instead ran into T&A by sheer coincidence.
So again, Thanos threatened the universe once more by siding with Annihilus and allowing him to use Galactus for a bomb.
For our discussion, it's important to note that the absolute last canon thing Thanos does in Marvel Comics (at least until he's resurrected) is to try and undo a mistake that HE HIMSELF (i.e., Thanos) was dupped into doing. Thanos was desperately trying to clean up his own mess...you're so quick to call Galactus an idiot when 1. Thanos was the one who attracted Hunger to 616 universe, NOT Galactus. and 2. Thanos was the "idiot" who played along with Annihilus before realizing, yet again, that he would be the cause of the universe's doom. So the last thing Thanos does in Marvel Comics is to try to clean up his own mess by freeing Galactus. He dies before he can do that. As a result, Galactus cleans up Thanos' mess by wiping out everything that Thanos and Annihlus had achieved together with literally one blow.
Again Galactus seemed like a total and complete moron when pitted against Tyrant. This is after he had prep against a being he himself created. 😬
Yeah I grant you that. I can only call that terrible writing on the part of Mike Lackey...his writing is utterly grotesque. Since when do cosmic characters talk like they're a petty criminal?
Thanos created a being who was said to be more powerful than Galactus just messing around.
Stated to be more powerful, perhaps. In terms of on-panel feats, absolutely not in any fashion, and you have to concede to that. It took far less to put down Omega...hell they even used Spider-Man's webbing as part of the plan. You NEVER use something like Peter Parker's synthetic webbing against a COSMIC ENTITY. Explain it whatever you will...Omega was put down very easily. If you want to talk who's the better genetic engineer....
Full Power Tyrant vs. Omega, I'm giving this to Full-Power Tyrant all day.
Thanos intelligence>Galactus. You have nothing.
The same issue of Thanos #3...Thanos observes Galactus using his tech in the sun...Thanos did not know what the energies were being converted into...Thanos was "fascinated" by Galactus' tech....that's pretty self-explanatory right there. G's tech>>>>Thanos' tech...if you think otherwise you'll have to prove with scans.
