Darkseid vs. Avengers/F4/GoTG

I agree on most of this, and if Thanos lost the fight in a competent way, then yeah you could almost say it's not sooooooo bad.

But the details are what make it so noteworthy.
And the state in which Thanos was left after the fight, is the icing on the cake.

Bottom line I can't wait for the next Thanos vs Odin thread for example.
It should be fun after this.

All he had was some blood and missed a tooth and those are just three characters who attacked him on panel. He wasn't ko'd or defeated.

Well, he got his cube powers sapped away from him thanks to plot device, and while he was in shock over being depowered, got attacked by the Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, and the Fantastic Four, with three of those people definietely boasting the feats to be a threat on some level to Thanos.

And at the end, Thanos was bloody and still conscious. Hulk and Thor alone, the two top heroes in the Marvel Universe for the past several decades, have plenty of feats warranting them roughing up Thanos to some degree. So I really don't see this as horrific a showing for Thanos as some others do. Is it bad? Certainly not one of his finer moments, that's for sure.

This fight doesn't really change the outcome for Thanos vs. Odin.

Why? everyone agress that Thanos vs Odin = Odin wins 10/10.

Well, everyone except the Thanos trolls.

Whatever you think about this fight is obvious aint gonna change soon.
And that's cool I accept that.
Everyone has favorite characters.

The thing that matters is what the majority of the people on this forum thinks about the outcome.

Similar to you you can't convince me when I'm staring at those pages, that Thanos wasn't devastated, bloodied and humiliated left on his hands and knees with teeth missing and arrows sticking out of his back in this fight, from characters that he should be able to beat 10 years ago.

And we all know Thor's recent record (which pains me as he is prolly my favorite Marvel character).

As for the other poster (quan) I already told you (years ago) I don't acknowledge anything you say (or try to spin) that has to do with Thanos.
Your reputation precedes you, here and in other more Marvel friendly forums.

Cheers

Two down. Anyone else before I log out ?

Lol...get em quan.

Quan's tapped into the Dark Hadou.

If Bendis wrote this fight, Clint, CA, and Spider Woman would have bloodied and wounded Darkseid all by themselves.

There are scans floating around this board showing Bendis-power Spider Woman tearing apart Worthy Hulk.

👆 And Bendis-Cage would give Darkseid the final dropkick back into his boom tube.

I'm going with the arrows at least breaking skin. Using Hawkeye's taunt arrow in that scene as a frame of refrence, almost half of each arrow is buried in Thanos. His armor -around the shoulders anyway- has been drawn as pretty thick, but not that thick. At least not in this issue.

Besides, there are arrows buried in his back.

Thanos was bloody and missing a tooth after the combined attacks from Thor (who rocked Galactus' helmet and has hurt him before), Hulk( whose strength is dynamic and has destroyed planets easily while overpowering practically anyone he comes in contract with save Thanos), Rulk (killed Grandmaster, punched out a watcher, an ddefeated odinforce Thor), etc.

All he had was some blood and missed a tooth and those are just three characters who attacked him on panel. He wasn't ko'd or defeated.

Galactus Armor isn't that durable... this was normal Hulk and not WBH... this is depowered Rulk not LF Rulk...

As for this thread, some lesser Avatars of Darkseid would get defeated, some would stomp, true Darkseid wins with ease.

I disagree, I don't think the arrows pierced Thanos' skin at all. The scan shows all the arrows are on his yellow shoulder armour. None on his actual body, like I said. The arrows don't look that deep either to me, but the art is crappy in that panel, so its ambiguous. There's also no blood either, if that many arrows pierced his skin, there would definitely be blood. Finally, being pierced by normal arrows would deviate so far from Thanos average, that it'd be PIS, considering what he's tanked. So I doubt his skin was pierced.

I doubt Hawkeye is using "normal" arrows... he was able to injure Piledriver at close range... and Thanos' piercing durability sucks, to be honest.

The arrows shouldn't even pierce his armor. To hell with Hawkeye.

Clint is a much better character and amped by Bendispower he eats purple turtles on breakfast.

Darkseid. Him flexing with energy knocked out the entire JLA; don't see why that wouldn't work here, and once he'd be done with that, he either beats the shit out of or Omegas the ones that haven't died.

If they were like adamantium arrows or something, then it'd be more believable. But normal arrows? At Thanos' weakest god slayer broke on his skin, and Star-Lords guns couldn't scratch him. So normal arrows piercing him seems so far off it makes my head hurt.

Still until it's proven otherwise these were standard Hawkeye arrows. And I doubt Hawkeye would use adamantium tips and have them spread all over the place after every fight.

They definitely looked like they pierced his skin to me. Like I said, barely more than half of the length of Clint's arrows are sticking out of Thanos. Just how freaking thick do you think his armor is? And they were also sticking out of his back, where the yellow armor seems to be barely thicker than the blue suit.

Call it PIS if you want, I have absolutely no problem with that. But denying it because its stupid or we don't like it isn't something I disagree with.

I didn't say all the arrows pierced his skin, but some no doubt did, particularly the ones on his back. There doesn't have to be a pool of blood to confirm what we see with our eyes.

The arrows on his shoulders definitely didn't pierce his skin. The only one that might've is the one on his back. No you don't need a pool of blood, but If his skin was pierced (as deep as you think it was) then it makes absolutely no sense that there's not a single drop of blood in the wounded area. Usually in comics if something pierces someone's body/skin, there's blood in the area pierced at the very least to artistically imply piercing of the skin. But there's not a single drop of blood on his body from the arrow.

On top of that if you scroll down in the scan you posted, we see a clear shot of Thanos' back with no arrows (maybe they fell off) and his back is virtually unscathed with no blood or wounds from the arrows. Makes me doubt it pierced his skin as deep as you said at all.
