Ew, that sounded too much like quan+tranny.
😘

I'll post a few things just to set the tone.

In the following scene we have Darkhawk and Nova falling into some planet. Note the commentary as they're in free fall...

This is Anath-Na Mut, aka The Sphinx is letting us the readers into his mind a little bit. He has the power to create worlds or unmake them. In the second scan he tells Richie that he (Sphinx) orchestrated the events on the planet Shard as a means to bring Nova to him and in fact his hand is still glowing with power, meaning that it was all happening concurrently in real time (Note that Nova acknowledges that the Sphinx could merc them with a thought if he wanted to). What exactly are these events he speaks of? For that we must go back to the previous issue. Nova 31...

From the get go, weird shyte is happening on the planet...

Just as Nova and Darkhawk stop their scuffle and agree to leave together all hell breaks loose...

So we see there that the Sphinx ran some interference, got Nova and Co to stay just awhile longer and once he got what he wanted...BOOM. All from the comfort of his little homemade vacation/rehabilitation pocket dimension world thingy.

What is there to discuss anyway? Sphinx stomps.
Based on what does he stomp ? Is this like WW stomps Cable ? How did that turn out ?

By having the demonstrably superior power level that's how. By being able to snap his fingers and alter reality on a whim if he wants. By firing beams that transcend time so that no shields can stop them. By being physically stronger etc.

You can argue jobber and loser to deflect from the reality all you want, but the bottomline is that all I have to do is post a single solitary feat that trumps anything Thanos has ever done under his own power. That phucker would need a cosmic cube to replicate it.

Because that worked in the nexus of realities or when he faced off against the Maker, right ? Oh wait no it didn't. That always works against Nova to when these guys meet, right ?

Again, Thanos is unkillable has shown he can best reality warpers pre upgrade. The guy recently tanked a cc blast without a drop of Thanos' sweet blood.

This isn't feat arguing. In that case Odin crushes Oblivion. You know I am right. Thanos wins and without it even being a task for him doing so.

Refresh my memory, was the Nexus of realities an actual living sentient, thinking being that fought strategically? Or was it merely a harsh area of space much like the crunch, or the rip, or insert whatever other horrible point of no return scary area of space that seem to be ubiquitous in comics? The funny part about this is that he was in fact being warped lol.

He tanked a cc blast? Was that before or after he was fried by the anti-matter mine placed on him by our old friend Drax? Oh that's right, it was before. When he was still "weak". So anti-matter mine > depleted cc eh? Or is this the part where you argue that it was "special Drax magicks" that allowed the mine to work? Careful which way you choose to play it. You're arguing Marvel cosmic written by DnA with me. You know I know this shit inside and out.

Unless he tanked direct manipulation from the insane and fighting stupidly maker, you're talking apples and oranges here. I'll post it later. Again throwing Nova's name in the mix only furthers to highlight your ignorance of the two characters relative to one another. As I said earlier there's a reason he ALLOWS himself to lose to Rider, or anyone else for that matter. I even gave you issue numbers that gives insight into this fact. None of it has any baring in a Pis/cis free forum match.

Oh now this isn't feat arguing after you just named a few Thanos feats? Hahahaha! Sphinx warps time and makes Thanos get blown up over and over again with anti-matter mines lmfao! Superior beings that can warp reality, space and time just roll like that.

He was being warped but ultimately stayed true to himself and remained clean. That's a reality warp resistance feat any way you slice it.

That was well before a weakened Thanoswas hit by the blast. The comic makes it painfully clear he wasn't at full power and oh by the way; he reformed.

I am saying Thanos was that weakened at the time that an anti matter grenade destroyed him while a cc couldn't make him bleed.

Again, these characters fight in character not how you wan them to fight. Thanos has superior feats by miles than anything the Sphinx has ever done. Ever.

The god of time Kronos can't easily destroy Thanos yet you believe the Sphinx can ? He can't even beat Richard Rider. We argue based on what happens in comics not what you want to happen. Remember this lesson.

What feats ? I read your battlezone. Yeah, you came off like it's a stomp. You were wrong yet again. Even your man crush Galan agreed.

Sphinx wins, basically he is a Sky Father in power and abilities with one Ka Stone, with two it would be ridiculous.

Thanos would need artifact to equal to challenge one Ka stone to compensate the powers differential, only thing that would save Thanos from an all out a$$ whooping is Death curse.

Now I have to question if you've even read the material. The cc blast happened to mindless Hulk Thanos who had just been resurrected and was running around butt naked in the last issue of Guardians of the Galaxy, well before TI #3 where he got fried by anti-matter. He was unequivocally weak in that GOTG issue up until around MAYBE TI 2. And that's being very generous. Anything after that you're pulling out of your ass. But you didn't know that now did you? This just confirms to me what I've always suspected. You don't read the material, you scan shark it don't cha?

We argue feats/showings/portrayal etc. Sometimes one is so painfully obvious that it trumps most others. You know, like warping 616 reality with the wave of a hand.

Thanos has superior feats? One response... 😆

Now you may take your leave. I refuse to waste my precious time debating with scan sharks. Dismissed.

No, I do read the material. I don't just leaf through scans. He wassn't weakened until after the gotg issue. He was gradually regaining his strength since then.

Take issue 25 for example. He had just recently come back into the fray and slaughtered an entire world after killing the previous avatar of death, the dyke. Thanos didn't budge when pressed by gunfire but later on against Drax was driven back and then some due to him still being weakened. That's a direct comparison which also makes sense since the bomb killed him because he wasn't anywhere near full strength as evidenced by the comparative gunfire attacks. The gunfire attacks happen right before the grenade attack you simpleton.

Honestly, you really want to go this route with me. It's honestly pleasing to hear you attempt to grow a set after all this time but it's really a little too much.

Superior feats--In the same series you claimed I didn't read. Thanos resisted a universally ritualized weapon designed to kill him/eliminate death. This from a universe backed by old time dark gods surmised at as older than the abstracts. Look at the one abstract they set forth. The Galactus Engine was just what we saw there were supposedly greater beings coming out of the Faultline and yet this being was powerful enough to stalemate various Celestials, Galactus, and T and A.

I don't argue through scans alone I read the arcs. Here's a secret. I won't sport a sig containing images from a comic I have not yet read thus far.

Run away little doggie.

Reality warping. You can draw any conclusion from something you read, I never said it was a stomp.

Dude, it's a page back. Are you lying or do you have the memory of a hamster ?

Thanos resisted reality warping before.

I was talking about my match with existere, not this fight. Its a stomp.

So has almost every top tier character.

Now that has got to be one of the most jumbled mess of chicken scratched arguments and faulty logic that I've read yet. He resisted the who to the what did the what to the who? Just a quick glance at your first few words reveals that you even get the minor details wrong. Martyr wasn't the avatar of death. Quick what was her role? Don't forget to wiki!

Grow a pair? Come now. We both know that my balls have sat firmly on top of your head for a few years now.

And much like your last post, Thanos was an incoherent babbling mess in that issue. Also in issue 25, you know, for comparative reasons, Drax also engaged Thanos in unarmed combat and managed to rock back him pretty good with a single blow before eventually going down off panel. As did Groot. Meanwhile the Sphinx, you know, for comparative purposes handles Drax level strength opponents like children...

And that's without a ka stone BTW. (Grimm did manage to get some decenct licks in after that)

Sticking to the "weakened" theme. The Sphinx created a world with a population, infrastructure/technology etc, destroyed another one and pulled various characters from around time (including his younger self) all while suffering from temporal cancers.

If you're referring to my Sig, issue's been out for over a month now. But again, Guy didn't post it in the ownage thread so you wouldn't know that now would you. Want the scans?

Are you telling me to run away? Bwahahahaha! You are the food. The food doesn't get to tell the chef to go away. You're the lobster getting tossed in a pot to boil alive as I'm seasoning you. You're the dead mouse that I, the cat, am toying with before I choose to consume you. The food has no say in when it gets eaten. Likewise you have no say in any of this.

How is it a stomp ? Based on what ? What has the Sphinx done to warrant this being a stomp ?

Slow down and take a breath. Sphinx stomps by reality warping.

Based on what though ? This is where you tell me what feat of the Sphinx's leads you to believe he can do so to Thanos. That's called debating.
