Odin/Bor vs Zeus/Depowered Tyrant

Had Thor not made a reference to his empowerment with the Odinforce as the specific reason he was saved, I might agree that you could consider Thor's statement, hyperbole. But he did. The statement is made too deliberately with its use of a condition precedent.

And beyond that, a lesser-looking follow-up blow with the butt-end of his halberd ended up breaking his rib outright. Bor took Odinforce Thor to the limit (and took Mjolnir beyond its limit). The Destroyer Armor with a free naked shot didn't do nearly as much.

I know the reference and that is a valid point. However, it's also valid that Thor had taken multiple shots from a pissed off Thor and he was just fine.. yet ONE shot from Bor would've killed him? That doesn't seem like a tad bit of a stretch there?

I dont think Thors statement was hyperbole as I think the writter wrote Thor saying that as if it was a fact...

HOWEVER I do think Thors statement was one of MANY MANY inconsistent things that writters have written these characters to say over the years...

So at that point in time (when that fight was written), it was true...but that writter (undoubtably) didnt take other Thor showings into account when he wrote that.

Afterall, no way in hell does Bor possess more attack power than a "merciless" Celestial...

Nor does Bor possess more attack power than Michael Korvac; and Thor withstood his attacks and lived...

And even if I did, I fail to see how you're not just repeating the same disbelief that I addressed with my previous post.
