But entropy is more or less meant to rot, or age correct? I don't recall the exact issue, but I believe that Thor resisted an entropic touch due to his ability to live for a very long time. It began to weaken him, but it took time. Zeus may not be affected at all, and as the Rune King, Thor's long life may have been become even longer. Nullification has a completely different meaning to it, which is to erase. Is there a possibility that these two may resist entropic forces as immortals?

Entropy is a reorganization of energy, or everything in the universe. Thats what it does, for a higher purpose. It is not disorder or rot. No force can resist entropy.
Read numbers 4 and 5.
en·tro·py (ntr-p)
n. pl. en·tro·pies
1. Symbol S For a closed thermodynamic system, a quantitative measure of the amount of thermal energy not available to do work.
2. A measure of the disorder or randomness in a closed system.
3. A measure of the loss of information in a transmitted message.
4. The tendency for all matter and energy in the universe to evolve toward a state of inert uniformity.
5. Inevitable and steady deterioration of a system or society.

I'm not sure what comic writers use the word for. In Marvel entropy was used in the sense of matter rotting away. One of the Exemplars had such a touch. But even before this, Thor was hit with entropic forces, and as i said earlier, he was able to resist it, due to his long lived life. I don't mind being wrong, I just had to question whether an immortal could resist forces that destroyed matter on the level, that it was suggested to do in the couple of comics that I read. You get me?

Some people view it as rotting away while some don't, some view Entropy as change measuring the dispersal of energy or the amount of change in the system. Haven't seen Thor survive entropic forces, but I doubt he would survive given how AE and Imperiex was perceived.

"This destructive force is working its way back through the timestream--simultaneously wiping out time and space.":
"It seems that entire segments of time--and the universe--are being destroyed.":
"All-consuming, destructive entropy has been unleashed, crushing every shred of matter in existence.":
"The entire universe ceases to exist. All energy is gone. There are no witnesses alive, no one to tell the tale.":
Time, space, matter, energy... Reality itself. Erased on a universal+ scale by entropy. If that isn't equivalent to Marvel's nullification, then I don't know what is.
So yeah, no one on the team is tanking entropy. Sorry.

Sorry about that man, got really busy. Anyways I can dig it.

Yet during a similar battle on Earth , the human witnesses were watching it as if it was an action-packed movie in an amphitheater .
Comic book inconsistencies are common , and they often suck .
