To be fair, that Gladiator was from the future (ie. the Reigning's timeline, which I think was made into it's own Earth/continuity) and was hellbent on killing Thor who at the time didn't know WTF was going on. The very next issue when they resume the fight, Thor ups the ante and Future Glads goes as far to admit that Thor is too strong.
Originally posted by carver9Orion would beat Gladz he's no more a threat to him than Superman is less actually. The fact that you don't know shit about Orion yet claim Gladz would crush him is amusing.
More durable and stronger? I disagree if we go by feats but I do agree with quan, Thor can beat glads because he has the tools to beat him.Orion would get CRUSHED by gladiator.
Originally posted by kgkgThank you for posting that, I remember that fight as Thor came back in the next issue overpowering Glads and cleaning his clock, after which Glads begged Odin to destroy his son before he fulfilled the future events of the 'Reigning'.......which Odin was shoched that Glads have knowledge of the future events!

His exact words were "I did my best, but he's too strong. Thor lives!" when he's returned to his proper timeline.
Getting back on topic, Orion is easily his team's MVP. IMO, Thor and GL are more solid as a team than Orion and Glads.

C'mon man are you leaving out the part where thor girl came in and saved Thor's ass? By thor admission Glads what hit by a blast from Thor girl that rivaled the Odin's powers. Thats quite the hit to tank... that is the only reason Glads failed to beat him. If it continuted to be a mono y mono fight Glads would have killed him.

Considering Glads was bloodlusted, had prep so-to-speak, and attacked Jake Olson first, it's not a bad showing from Thor.
And before Thor Girl even intervened, Thor beat the crap out of Glads, laying him down and out on the ground. Let it never be said I'm trying to hide anything:
As you can plainly see, Glads' is already KTFO before Thor Girl decides to gain some retribution.

edit..
Your right, few nice hits with the hammer sent Glads flying into a blast from Thor Girl.
Anyway, now everyone saw the whole fight. Glads beat him Thor came back from the ropes. Anyway Thor won't be beating Glads quickly or vice versa. As I said before Glads can definitly tango with Thor but in that time maybe Orion can take out Hal.
Originally posted by kgkgAre you kidding me?
No never. Well I can say the same thing. When Gladiator uses his powers he makes makes quick work out of Thor whenever they fight.
Originally posted by kgkgYou provided an example of Glads using his surroundings to give him the time to coldcock the hammer god. He separated his hammer from a an opponent who held back, that's it. Then he reverted back to human form.
The moment Thor decided to get serious he crushed him and quite easily.
Thor's got the power to down any top tier pretty quickly based on his higher showings.

Once again further proof that Thor cannot win without his Hammer. 👇
The funny thing is Thor put down Durok without his hammer and has stalemated the Hulk before. Your post shows you don't read Thor.

Yeah, but Hal was born human and Thor was born a god....BIG DIFFERENCE...you might as well say the same thing about Iron man. By default Thor should have his own might to aid him...obviously he doesn't since he has to depend on his hammer to win a fight.
No, I don't read THIS current Thor...thank you very much.
Originally posted by WickedDynamiteThe hammer grants you the power of Thor. Without it he is still a force though he has relied on his hammer too much, but the power is still his power.

All you have to do to Thor is say,"You can't beat me without your hammer.," and he will usually toss it away himself even if it risks turning him back into some lame twerp.
Thor's a man's man.
