He uses anything and others to achieve his means which is better than getting your own hands dirty.
I used it correctly.
It doesn't matter how simple or complicated a plan is only how effective. I mean you're grasping at straws here and have been from the first post where you dared claim Galactus' intelligence even rivals Thanos'. It's an insult.
Thanos isn't controlled by his hunger like Galactus is he was bored and saw another character favored by Death but never fully trusted him. Galactus was foolish to ignore Hiro Kala because he's overconfident in many showings another huge character flaw of his. He was easily manipulated by a child. That's just plain sad.
Galactus has always been more powerful than Thanos until imperative but now Thanos is more powerful than Galactus imo. Intelligence has never been even close Galactus might have better tech at his disposal some of the times but even Thanos on a botched experiment showed how easy it was for him to create a being far more powerful than Galactus.
In all of the infinity's, thanos imperative, thanos' own title when he's been involved in a story with Galactus he's always been crucial in defeating the threat while Galactus is just a pawn. Even warlock treated him as a pawn and the abstracts followed him because Galactus isn't anywhere near these guys in terms of intelligence.
Nothing you said changed the circumstances, that Thanos no matter if he was bored or not, was expecting to be outsmarted and still was, even though being as intelligent as you ascribe him to be. Thanos openly admitted on panel that what Annihilus intended was never something he had anticipated. So in simple words Thanos was outsmarted.
Thanos was in the lucky position that Tenebrous and Aegis didn't just kill him on the spot like they had did to the Fallen, simply because he had been in contact with Galactus. I'm not denying that Thanos used the circumstances to his advantage, as mentioned two times now, but what you for some reason can't seem to understand is that the fact that Tenebrous and Aegis wanted revenge on Galactus was a thing that was entirely outside of Thanos control. In that way he didn't orchastrate Galactus defeat and capture, he had used the maker it would be correct to assume such, but since he didn't he merely picked up Galactus and that was it. I'm not crasping at straws here, anyone that have read the comic book knows that Galactus capture in it was a result of Tenebrous and Aegis, not Thanos plan for it.
No Thanos isn't which makes the case that Thanos was outsmarted even when he expected such sad. And as mentioned before and it can be mentioned again, Hiro accomplished what he did because Galactus crawed the Old Power, and only because of that. Your might as well make the case that the Silver Surfer could do what he did in Galactus Miniseries every time he wants to, which is a gross overlook of the circumstances, just like the Hiro case is.
So Thanos personal power went from "Lilliputian" to above Galactus? Based on what, that he can't die? There are hundreds of other ways for a being with Galactus capacity to get rid of a being so far below his personal power like Thanos. What Galactus did when he turned the stars magma into a unknown substance for Thanos, it's a show of Galactus having a higher intelligence then Thanos, because obviously Galactus was fully aware of what he was doing the entire time. He didn't just find his tech on Taa II he built it himself. Yes Thanos made a being from Galactus DNA, everything suggest that he needed that DNA in order to do anything, where as Galactus didn't need anything but motivation to make a machine from scratch that was his near equal.
Still nothing that in any way challenge Galactus intelligence in comparison to Thanos... ah well I guess we can then summize that all you have are really the making of the Thanos clone. Galactus is just a pawn? In what stories did you read exactly? In Thanos Imperative Galactus was instrumental in holding the Galactus engine back, if Galactus hadn't done that Thanos wouldn't have had a universe to save, in Infinity Watch or whatever it name is, it was Galactus that in agreement with the rest decided to option for the Infinity Gems to be used again, and the IG was at that time in their possession, Adam Warlock wasn't allowed to attend iirc. As for Hunger, if Hunger hadn't adapted to the attacks from Galactus, Thanos intervention would have been entirely irrelevant. And again show me a single reference to where any of these guys have a home that contains "knowledge as boundless as infinity" until then the only kinda intelligence you can give them a edge in, is cunning, which Galactus never uses because 1. not in his character 2. not needed to accomplish his goals.
