Man, that whole scene was just dumb, especially in context of the event. Nate's inclusion in that story didn't add a whole lot, and the occasional attempts to revamp Ares' 'god of war' role were obviously in vain given that he got ripped apart by Sentry shortly after.

And 'planck time' was just unnecessary.

^ Didn't that happen shortly after the F4 used 'Planck temperature' to defeat the Marquis of Death? Seems like Marvel was really Planck-happy at the time. ermm

Oh? I though Planck in reference to time as I understood it was that it was te smallest measurement of time. And was determined by meauring the rate and which light moves one planck unit.

But I haven't read it in a while so I guess when he mentions it it could e he stopped time or stepped out of it or the equivalent.

But yeah the point of this thread is really to discuss the outliers of what people do when they don't normally do it.

Thor effectively killing Thing in Fear Itself. It's certainly within his capabilities to do so, but it's OOC, at least for my tastes.

Very much agreed... Regular Ben has been hit in the chest with Mjollnir being thrown at him by THOR in the past and it just knocked him down, it didn't even knock him out.

Ben now being amped as Angir was at least 2X as powerful as regular Ben and there is no way Mjollnir not being being thrown at him but, just returning to THOR should go right through him and kiling him...

BS running rampent on that one big time.

considering that Thor's killed someone in most if not all major events, who's to say its OOC for Thor? If we also consider the fact that he's a warrior who's been killing his enemies since ages past, its more like it should be in his character to go killing off his enemies rather than just beating them senseless.

For the vast majority of his existence, Thor has been portrayed as being opposed to killing for the most part. Only in rare examples has Thor killed someone, and usually it was because he had no other choice. Asgardians aren't like their vikings worshipers; they abhor senseless killing and generally take all steps to avoid it if possible. It's part of the reason the Asgardians left Midgard to their own devices. Killing is even more frowned upon in Midgard.

Thor didn't want to kill Sentry after he laid waste to Asgard and killed his brother, but instead wanted him to face imprisonment and trial. I find that even portrayed as overly aggressive as he is nowadays courtesy to Fraction, Thor's way too easily provoked to kill, even when it's "necessary". He's battled plenty of possessed or mind controlled allies and friends and refused to slay them, even when things were dire. Him mortally wounding Ben, no matter what the circumstances, seem OOC to me.

Like I said, I think it's certainly within Thor's power to one shot kill Ben, amped or not, but the fact he actually did it is what strikes me as off.
