Thanos didn't destroy a planet directly without help. Also Thanos surviving the planet is awesome. But know that the planet blew up in all directions and wasn't concentrated on Thanos. Surfer or Terrax or Glads can strike with planet busting power in a small concentrated area. Now surviving that is the ultimate test. Thanos surviving a star exploding is great too. But that is just durability. He needs offensive power to win. Remember this thread is about stalemating him too. He used outside shields, doesn't count. ABC logic doesn't quite work since characters don't always fight at their best. I didn't see Tryant do much in the Thanos fight. Plus Glads was going toe to toe with him until he got cheapshotted. And Thanos had an orb so it doesn't count. Well you will have to lie to yourself or imagine Thanos beating up on beings that lost their planetary power for the moment. A lot of things below planetary power has cause Galactus harm and other powerful beings too. A gas station koed Superman for crying out loud. It's comics mans deal with it. The point is that you should have argued that it harmed Galactus vs. it pushed him away. I'm not into silly portrayal stuff that makes no sense. If a guy weighs 30 tons then he can be sent flying if he doesn't brace. It was a great feat by Thanos nontheless. I have read a lot of comics. Probably not on the level of every character's appearance but definitely far more than the average guy. But reading comics has nothing to do with a character operating at his best. That's for stuff like using averages which I don't use. Get it?
I was going to go through this post neatly, but it's just a mess of text, kind of like the context contained within.
Thanos never beat Surfer because Surfer didn't destroy the planet. That's logic for you. Nothing Thanos has ever done counts because thhe characters didn't destroy a planet.
Your brain doesn't work, no offense.
No, a weak Thanos destroyed a planet with a weak character. That's what happened.
Thanos survived a god damn gas giant. Also, Surfer's planet destroying power is omni directional... Terrax, well, you're stupid... so that's how I'm going to answer that. Not even going to toy with Terrax destroying a planet against Thanos since Terrax is nothing to him. Gladiator can strike in a small surface. Gladiator also in one of his best feats (matching Tyrant for a second) got destroyed, while Thanos actually was able to give him a fight... because Thanos has no offensive power or defensive power.
Thanos has no offensive power... that's why he killed Surfer in a few punches... or right never happened. This is terrible. Thanos has no feats in comics because you have no brain cells in your head.
This is what I'm supposed to respond to, really?
His shields got pierced and he got hit directly by the attack. Also lol at saying him using shields doesn't count. Do you think he won't use shields or something?
Ya, Tyrant didn't do much... how do you function? Serious question? There's obviously a lack of oxygen going on there.
Anyway... Tyrant is among the few people who have actually managed to cause Thanos a good amount of harm.
And Gladiator didn't go toe to toe with him. He got destroyed head on. All he did was briefly hold off his eye beams and then got overpowered and face punched. Gladiator got what? 2 punched?
Thanos had an orb that amped his attacks that came out of the orb.
I don't have to lie. I would have to shoot myself in the head, survive, become immensely retarded in the process because I destroyed a portion of my brain, and then get online and tell people that Thanos loses to Gladiator, for me to believe that Thanos loses to Glads or Terrrax, or other trash characters.
A lot of things below planetary have caused Galactus harm? Name them. Show scans.
It did harm Galactus, and it did push him away. You should have learned how to argue.
No one has done that to Galactus though, that's the point. Also good job ignoring Surfer never causing Galactus any damage, Terrax never causing him any damage, and Beta with a planet destroying attack not damaging Galactus. If not knowing anything is your bread, then ignoring everything is your butter.
You don't read comics though. You have no idea what you're talking about 100% of the time. You don't know averages, high showings, or low showings. You know random scans that you attribute as high showings.
There's probably more I missed, but you have no idea what's going on, so I'm not worried about covering too many bases. Absolutely no idea. Not a clue.
