Surfer has faced some of the most powerful beings in the universe and held his own when it came to energy wielders. Surfer isn't a brawler type. He always does bad when it comes to hand to hand. Thor could kill Surfer with a couple of blows to the head.

I think he showed exactly what a non holding back Supes could do. Its been stated one too many times how he holds back.
Look what a teenage supergirl who has trouble holding back was able to do. Now toss in Cyborg who doesnt really hold back and him killing Doomsday (I think he was dead for all of 1 second) is what a Supes kicking it up as he often does would do.

Which is what I mean. I always thought Hank could be a physical powerhouse but he was never given the chance to prove it because his technopathy always came first(not that I blame them because it is the more interesting power) IMO it makes sense for him being that powerful. He has the evil Superman thing going for him(like Prime)....and then some.
And it wasn't just a punch he was all out bloodlusted bullrushing the shit out of DD.

She still failed to seriously damage him. The showing IMO put him a good bit above most Kryptonians and probably most Heralds in general in physical power.

Yeah, let's not forget that she took it to Ultraman. Supergirl is solid top tier, IMO.

Having trouble holding back was meant to imply she wasnt. Sorry if not clear. She had that blitz stun affect going on for a few though.
As for cyborg, this showing was above most kryptonians which is what copying Supes DNA would do
Originally posted by Sirius77He's shown absolutely nothing close to Thanos level. He's fighting elite top tiers which Thanos seems to shrug off with ease. Thanos is far smarter than DD and adaptive abilities or not Thanos is always going to be just too smart to lose to anyone like this.
Either way, Current Doomsday wins this. He appears to be able to use his victim's powers far better than even they can. I.e, out-technopathing one of the best technopaths (if not the best technopath) in comics.
Originally posted by TricksterPriestThanos is smarter. DD doesn't gesmarter than his opponents. Thanos already took on a stronger clone of himself. I also think if supergirl and henshaw can pound on him and for him to take a decent amount of time to beat them into submission Thanos will dominate him.
How does he win? DD wrecked Henshaw. He's got Henshaw's powers now in addition to his other abilities. And he'll copy Thanos's powers, but stronger. How can Thanos beat a stronger version of himself? Hell, DD has flight now.
Thor has flight, better power feats than DD, and had a power gem and Thanos still took him on and beat him.

He doesnt have to. His powerset apparently lends to the idea that he can mimic any ability he needs to. Also, henshaw was smarter as well, but let's not use the "thanos will find a way" argument.
Originally posted by Sirius77Henshaw can't even figure a way out to kill himself so let's not compare his intelligence to Thanos'. Not in the same leagues by any way,shape, or form.

Henshaw also broke his body through physical might so imagine what Thanos can do to it. Now he can reform but so can Thanos if he dies which I don't see happening as DD hasn't shown the power to take on someone on his level.
DD will go down soon as well so arguing before the arc is over is premature anyways as he hasn't been beaten but as it stands Thanos' feats, power, intelligence are leaps and bounds over DD's best.
