Thanos vs Morg

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.

No for sure he had the Power Cosmic. Morg was stripped of the PC by Big G during the end of the Herald Ordeal. He dies. Galactus later rezzes him and restores his PC but no more WoL power up. He goes to get revenge vs Terrax for killing him and stealing his axe. Tyrant's goons show up and pwn them. Tyrant keeps him as a power supply to spite Galactus. Thanos and crew show up, Tyrant returns the PC he drained in his orbs to Morg and sics him on them for the LuLz.

He puts up a SURPRISINGLY good showing vs Thanos (hell Ganymede was even helping Thanos vs Morg), but he loses in the end.

So with all of that being said, and how well Morg did in his brief scuffle with Thanos, how much better would he do if he had the WOL in that conflict? I'm not even sure that Morg wasn't playing possum with Nova, because as he rises, he does so with an evil grin on his face. Did he look like a guy in an overly serious condition? He wasn't groggy the way someone would be if they were KO'd. All the same, Morg with both the PC and WOL has that nasty axe, which could pose a serious threat to even Thanos.

Fun Fact: Morg STILL had the WOL when Thanos one shot him.. read his bio if you don't believe me... 😄

The bio runs against the continuity. Read every appearance with him in it, and you will see why this is. In other words, never rely on hand books, and bios unless they are used to highlight what the characters power are. In Morg's case, continuity should always take precedence over a bio that may have been out of touch.

👆 Bios are excellent sources of info.

Not when they are out of continuity.

Are you saying the bio is based off of what then ? Aren't bios based on continuity ?

Kurupt when did Thanos one shot Morg with eyebeams? To my knowledge they only fought once during the Cosmic Powers arc.

In Morg's case there were a few discrepancies. as ZOP pointed out, and made me scratch my head over the entire character for years. Marvel hired a shoddy team to finish the Tyrant story, and unfortunately Morg was caught up in the shit storm. If it's of any consolation, I think that Thanos would win this, just not by way of mauling Morg. He's going to have to work for it, based on, on panel evidence.

I have the issue where Galactus rezzed Morg after his death in the Herald Ordeal, the only mention of the WoL stuff was by Galactus. He said that it was what allowed Galactus to rekindle the spark of life in Morg and rez him. Then Morg goes off to find his axe that Terrax stole.

There is no further mention of the WoL stuff but in Cosmic Powers 5 Tyrant says plain as day he's siphoning "the power cosmic" from Morg. And then later returns it to him so he can fight off Thanos/Terrax/Ganymede.

Prior to this, he exhausted himself fighting (and beating) Terrax and that's what allowed Tyrant's goons to capture them. So for sure he did not have the WoL upgrade anymore. Otherwise he would have WTFpwned Terrax.

That's it. What does his bio say? When did Thanos "one shot" Morg? What fight was this?

Great way to break it down by the way, and it's to the letter.

You actually proved the point and didn't even realize it. In ORDER FOR GALACTUS TO EVEN REVIVE MORG.. HE STILL HAD SOME WOL LEFT. Meaning it wasn't ALL GONE just as the BIO states. On panel narration colaborated by bio narration. Furthermore, how could you read all what you claim and miss when Thanos one shot Morg... Morg cheapshotted Thanos from the side... proceeds to try and cut Thanos's head off with an axe... this strike was blocked by Thanos... at which point morg is grabbed from behind... at which point.. Thanos one shots morg... I'm not sure how you can claim to have read all of this.. and miss this HUGE part?

Meaning it wasn't ALL GONE, yet it was still nearly depleted, and not what the OP of this thread is using.

Morg cheapshotted Thanos from the side... proceeds to try and cut Thanos's head off with an axe... this strike was blocked by Thanos, who grabbed an axe to defend himself... at which point Morg is grabbed from behind... at which point.. Thanos one shots Morg that was still at that point without the WOL... I'm not sure how you can claim to have read all of this.. and miss this HUGE part?

Edited.

Post rez, this is the only mention of the WoL power up :

If it was there, it's gone now. If there, the WoL remnant in Morg was miniscule, because he exhausted himself fighting Terrax (stated and proven on panel). Terrax!

Good God, you are using the Cosmic Powers fight as proof Thanos "one shotted" Morg?! Holy sh|t.

He didn't one shot morg? What else on earth would you call that... Thanos fired ONE SHOT and Morg was put down.

As far as the WOL... the point is, it WAS still there post rez... how much is debatable... but there is no continuity error to speak of

It's the context of the whole thing. Morg was not at full power in that battle, and he did well. With the Full power of both the PC, and WOL, he would most certainly have done better. Morg's character was crap, but you can't deny that he had loads of power at his best showing.

But there is. You can't argue that the remnant of the WoL power was any kind of boost to Morg post rez because he EXHAUSTED himself fighting Terrax! It was shown on panel and stated by Morg himself.

I read it as the WoL had allowed Galactus to rez Morg and that's it. There was no further power up from it post rez.

Concerning the Thanos/Morg fight. Tyrant returned the Power Cosmic he had siphoned off from Morg so he could deal with Thanos/Ganymede/Terrax. At no time did Thanos fight him solo. In fact, Morg's initial attack wasn't even directed at Thanos but Terrax! He then went on to fight both Ganymede and Thanos and Thanos appeared to need Terrax's axe to deflect an attack from Morg. Hell Thanos was even asking Ganymede to "occupy" aka distract him!

Scans here :


To recap :

Thanos was not his first target, Terrax was
Thanos had time to defend himself once Morg showed up
Thanos had help from Ganymede
Thanos did not one shot Morg (you can see him muscle through on of Thanos' blasts and tackle him)
Thanos needed Terrax's axe at one point in the fight to deflect an incoming axe strike from Morg.

There can be no arguing with that evidence.
