I don't have to post anything though when we have some of the most powerful beings in comics punching on the shields. Their power had to do something and that's all Thanos did was add on to what was already possibly weakened. Not a good example buddy.

Yeah, he finished it but didn't one shot it. That amount of heavy hitters would have done something to the shield and other issues of Quasar showed that eventually damage like that added up and on some occasions broke a shield. Impressive, but not a one shot.
So you have ZERO proof the heroes did ANYTHING to the shield or that it was failing in the slightest? Check. You even see quasar talking about and not the least bit concerned about what the heroes are doing... trust me he has cosmic awareness and knows the integrity of his shielding very well.. he would know if it's being weakened and the author would've let us know about it... NOTHING like that happened.... Thanos with a smile ONE SHOT IT.
I don't think Quasar's side blew the dome, as a matter of fact They were getting ready to stop hitting the dome and assume positions to attack the IW team.
While they were about to get ready is when the dome blew, then You see smoke coming out of Thanos hand and Warlock's gem and then Quasar says: "They blew the dome"
Calling this a Thanos "one shot" is an overstatement.
The context says that Quasar's side attacked the dome, if it affected or not is not clear.
Quasar gets distracted saving Proff X and then THEY blew the dome.
They as in the infinity watch team OR Warlock and Thanos.
This is at best a shared feat of Thanos and Warlock breaking a Quasar's construct.
My question is:
Are Quasar's shields really that strong or was that a form of PIS going on there?
Lastly, if they are that strong then I agree with KuRuPT that since the writer didn't give any evidence of the shield weakening then it wasn't weakened in any way. This is because this comic stuff is fictional-never happened and it is based off writer's intentions.
IMO, that was a very good energy blast feat from Thanos. At the very least it wasn't a one-shot but so close to it then we can considered it the same. I believe Thor could have Godblast the shield open as well since he cracked Exitar's dome with one. I reckon Exitar's dome is more durable than Quasar's shield.
Edit: A second side to it is to apply realism to the comic. If we do so then it makes since that the other characters could have weakened it to an unknown degree. So in adding realism to the comic (and not cartoonism) Thanos didn't one-shot it but definitely applied more power than any of the characters did.
Originally posted by biensalsaSo tell me... which gem to Warlock have there ? Surely one an impressive blasting one eh? There was no mention of Warlock firing a thing none. But we do see mention of Thanos getting and firing... Thus there is NO way the IW blew anything... we see no evidence of that at all.

Originally posted by JakeTheBankThat's because there is no reason for carver to have used the term "pearly". And, for some reason, it is slightly disturbing, in a homophobic, squishy, coach-giving-you-a-massage, guy-in-a-leotard kind of way.
Don't know why, but this made me lol uncontrollably.
Way to go carver.
I am not concerned with the "One-Shot" status of Thanos' strike. Even if his power equaled that of the entire team that was attacking the shield, and his blast effectively doubled the damage, which resulted in the shattering of Q's shield, it is still a sign of great power.
And, YES, Quasars shields are THAT powerful. He has been undersold, but he is among the most powerful characters in Marvel. He wasn't even paying attention to the attacks on his shield, and it was holding until Thanos struck.
Imagine if he actually concentrated and focused...

So this is where the opinion stems from. No offense to Kurupt, but this is an irrelevant citation, why are people bringing the Merged personality Professor Hulk into this? How has he ever done anything at that level, comparable alone to the Green Scar's feat of overpowering a force capable of making a planet explode.
This really isn't something that should be debated. The Green Scar in World Breaker mode was proven on panel to be far above any level he has been at since the character was first made. Even War paled in comparison to the Green Scar's highest level to date. The crazy thing here is that whatever we saw during HOTM could have been topped. As far as the book went, it said nothing, and I mean not one single thing, that states that the Hulk has finally reached his limits. Can anyone find those words, because i could not.
The point to all of this is that the Merged Hulk does not belong in this thread, due to his level of power, or lack thereof. Am I making any sense here?
The main question here is has Thanos ever on panel been seen to output enough strength with one blow, to make a planet explode? He did fight a huge power in Tyrant, but even their blows didn't cause the structure that they were on to explode. The crazier thing is that since the book came out, people have been claiming many things that simply were never written. No one knows truly how powerful World Breaker Hulk was.
I'll end with this, I have never once seen Thanos shift that much weight with strength alone, unamped by external sources.
Originally posted by h1a8I don't have to Hulk's highest showings aren't on Thanos' level. So since his best involves destroying a planet when the weakest Thanos did that basically in his first appearance then I'd say you have nothing.
In pure melee? Who?
Also prove that he hurt X being with a power above the power that WBH endured. Otherwise an exploding gas station can pawn anyone at or below Superman's level.Mar-vell is more powerful than who?
Hulk.
