Tyrant "depowered" vs. Odin

In addition, Thanos was unable to do anything significant to Odin at all...

Tyrant was unfazed till Thanos blasted him in the face with the Orb, then Tyrant was feeling Thanos' attacks (exactly like Terrax told Thanos, the Orbs are his greatest asset and his greatest vulnerability should it be used against him).

Don't know how in the world people keep missing this. confused1

Speculation. Most of these battles have characters stop and speak dialogue so you inserting your fantasies have no bearing here. Thanos prepped for Tyrant and the fight was much shorter while he acknowledged he might lose his life had the fight continued whereas he never doubted himself for an instant in a longer fight against Odin. Proof's in the pudding.

See Thanos's position? His neck is vulnerable...

See Odins position? He could strike out at any time and kill the Mad Titan...

Yes, the proof is in the pudding; Thanos only lived because Odin allowed him to live...

Thanos should have erected a shield right there. In my mind he erects his greatest shield which depowers Odin so significantly he's easy pickens. That's how easy it is to change what could have happened on panel as opposed to what did happen.

I havent changed anything on panel; Odin let Thanos live...he let him get up instead of pressing his advantage and ending the Mad Titan's life.

Lets take another look at the critical position:

Oh well. It is what it is.
You don't have to buy it. Like I said earlier there may be other up to date sources/retcons/on panel evidence stating otherwise.

Leaving aside the fact that this validates the Demiurge/Elder Gods story, she also states that if their human worshipers are replaced by other beings that DO NOT WORSHIP THEM, Demogorge will come and slay all the Pantheons.

Odin out of mutual respect for him asked him to yield to which Thanos turned down. Odin already mistakenly believed him defeated.

Odin simply decided not to kill him; he had every opportunity to do so...7 panels worth of opportunity.

Except we know he was trying to kill him. Otherwise why would he be surprised Thanos was still breathing?

Hyperbole...

And even if it wasnt hyperbole, it directly contradicts Odin not taking action against Thanos when he had him in a position where he could kill him...

Again, zopzop, you dont let people you are trying to kill get up...you know this.

But then Kang comes in and kos Thanos by throwing Doom's severed head at the titan.

Kang conquers!

Odin admitted that was his goal we've already been over this. You will continue to ignore what he said and repost the same scans over and over again.

I know I see Thanos in a compromised position where he could be killed...and the potential killer simply chose not to act.

In my minds eye that means Odin didnt want to kill him...

And its BS everytime it happens...

Just because it happens (the plot demands it in both mediums) doesnt mean that Odin couldnt have killed him...

So when the bad guys in a movie fire 10,000 shots at the hero (and fail to kill him), but when they final catch him (and tie him up...lol!!!!!!!!) wouldnt you say that the villians could have killed the hero but decided not to?

Of course you would, because they "could" have killed the hero, but the plot demanded otherwise....

The same applies in the situation with Thanos vs Odin...

Lord of Murder.. please don't start down this road again... You have NOTHING more than your speculation.. Guess what ON PANEL NARRATION is EXPONENTIONALLY more valid than your speculation. Odin said he wanted to kill Thanos.. Period... Your speculation about a common theme in many genres INCLUDING comics doesn't change that. Ya know.. that theme where somebody knocks over another and then goes on to boast and add dialogue to the fight scene... This is a common theme and we then don't say we know FOR SURE he could've killed him. There is NO for sure because it wasn't executed. Futhermore, a reason why he didn't attack further was because Thanos was knocked backwards and sent flying through stuff.. Odin was surprised he was alive.. thus why he didn't continue to attack. It matters not though if that was the reason... what we do know is on panel statements are greater than your speculation. What we also know is that we don't know for sure Odin could've killed him even if he pressed his advantage because fights change course all the time... If I get knockdown and hurt in a fight.. I will take my time to get my bearing and senses if I can.. if he keeps coming don't have that time and get up right away.. Very simple logic.. Don't start your blunder routine again cause you were doing so well
