Council of Reeds vs Thanos

No, when these two have been in the same story Thanos always outshines him.

Just no.

FF and Thanos don't have a real history. A small one, yes, in which Reed Richards only had a cameo and stuff like that, but the story was mostly all about Thanos.

Taking feats and running with them based off a character with over 2,000 plus more appearances is faulty and completely incorrect.

Reed >>> Thanos. Accept this.

So we just ignore his feats ?

We don't ignore comparisons and feats are fine they just don't matter when comparing. Sorry about your luck, kiddo.

Reed was involved in a major crossover in which Thanos was a heavy hitter not himself.

Reed shines when Thanos isn't there. When Thanos is there Reed sits down and takes notes.

No, they go to Reed.

Reed is considered the smartest of the Marvel Universe, not Thanos.

Yes, Reed had a small, unimportant role in some crossovers. Just like I said. Your point being ?

When somebody needs a Big Brain, they don't go to Tony, or the High Evolutionary, or Thanos.

No, they go to Reed.

Reed is considered the smartest of the Marvel Universe, not Thanos. [/B]

When has anyone ever picked Reed over Thanos in the same story ? reed shines when Thanos is absent.

That when the chips are down and when these two are in the same story Thanos takes the lead. He's better than reed.

Only when the story is about Thanos and nothing else.

You mean when he isn't dead (again) ?

It's even worse than I thought.

Reeds win. Unlike Thanos, they actually have taken over their respective universes.

Hops right back into car with vengeance in my heart.

REED!

His done it, more than once actually I think.

Reed has to have challenges SOMETIMES, if not, it would be extremely boring, but he IS the smartest in the MU.

Pym>> Valeria (as of fantastic 4 #573, at least according to her she's smarter than her dad)> Reed 616 >>> Celestials >> Council of Reeds

Kids say the funniest things sometimes. 😉

Reed can't even undertsand the concept of magic, it close but Thanos edges it as the Reeds first instinct won't be to kill Thanos only to stop him, Thanos on the other hand will go to annihilate then from the get go

When the chips are down in an Infinity Something story, Thanos always makes sure makes sure Reed is around just in case, by having some contrived and silly reason for getting earth's heroes involved - "Err... let's get those earth heroes involved again... you know, like that Reed Richards guy.... err.. in case we need like a diversion..."

When the chips are down in an FF story, Thanos isn't mentioned or needed.

When Thanos prepped and faced Galactus he was left begging and crying.

When Reed faced Galactus he designed a machine that depowered Galactus into a human and it took him about 10 minutes without prep.

And let's not forget, when Sue got annoyed with Thanos she knocked him out in about 5 seconds. A Council of Reeds comes with a whole bunch of Sues!

Really though, Pym and Amadeus Cho are also both smarter than Thanos these days. Probably Valeria Richards as well.
