A sneak attack is the key word. Nova was still very powerful, and I always saw Firelord as being the weakest, after all she did far better in that battle than Kril did if you recall. Morg literally punked Firelord. Do you really believe that a sneak attack is any cause to believe that this would be easy?
I think that it is important for the sake of this thread, that we don't compare one characters power-sets to another. Let me explain. Morg took on a team of Heralds that was more powerful than Nova, and the Surfer that Lord Mar-Vell embarrassed. However if we placed that scene under a microscope, Mar-Vell hit them with magic, and not on a physical level. Some characters like the Surfer, and Nova could have been weak to that particular magic. Mar-Vell really didn't do anything for me to say that he was physically more dominant than them though.
My argument is this, Morg was more of a physical powerhouse than Mar-Vell was shown to be on panel, which leaves this open to debate. Morg also has an axe and the power that was capable of cleaving a world in two like a knife though butter, and that was when he just possessed the Power Cosmic. Using just the Power of the Waters of Life, he shrugged, and destroyed the world that the Waters of Life originated from.

The extremely Thanos hype around here makes me root against a character that I geniunely like...
Thanos is a badazz, but to say that he "easily" beats Morg with WoL!? Bullcrap...
Thanos might prove to be stronger, but hes going to be hurting and bruised afterwards...
I honestly think Thanos takes this maybe 6 out of 10; its very possible that this version of Morg fights Thanos to dead draw...

Also,
If a child surprised attacked you and kicked you in the shin then you would cry out in pain too, yet you are much more powerful than a child (unless you are a child yourself lol)

He did more than merely cry out, he collapsed onto the floor and was there for a few moments. They actually thought she KOed him.

What book did that happen in, and what was the full context to the battle?Did Morg have both the Power Cosmic, and the WOL? I recall Galactus stripping him of the PC after killing Nova.
Do you recall this?!?!?!?!?!?!? 😛
She KOed him for a little while. Or at least he looked KOed.
Originally posted by TheLordofMurderThanos absolutely mauls him. I see Lord Mar-vell mauling Morg here and we see how easily Thanos mopped the floor with him.

I recall it, but what was the context of Morg's battle with Thanos when he did not have the PC and just retained the WOL? There was also a few inconsistencies in Morg's entire run that should have been explained in greater depth. How Marvel went and destroyed a good character like Morg is beyond me. Instead of making him brilliant they gave him an uninspiring origin, and put him out to pasture.

@StoicThe only time I can recall Thanos and Morg fighting was in the Cosmic Powers issues. Thanos fought a mind controlled Morg. He had his Power Cosmic back but no WoL stuff. This was after he was killed and resurrected by Galactus following the events in the Herald Ordeal Arc.
In that little scuffle, if you remember, Thanos did not maul Morg, and according to continuity, I don't believe that Morg was in possession of the Power Cosmic. Galactus never replenished him with it after taking it away once he had killed Nova. Do you remember this? let me be clear, I think Thanos would win, but he would be in for one hell of a battle. The scene in Cosmic Powers tells us this much.
