And, I DID read the story. Against Tyrant, Thanos was on a fact-finding mission. A "probe". All the way up until he found out what he wanted to know and then, casually took off. Hell, even even explains that he wasn't really there to defeat Tyrant and that the mission was more important than the outcome of their battle.Against Odin, regardless of why he was there, he ended up bloodlusted. As you all keep pointing out, he wanted nothing but to defeat Odin, even after getting smacked around like a lil' ole lady. He didn't CARE about why he was there anymore.
You can't have it both ways.
Was Thanos bloodlusted against Odin so much, that even after his beating, he still wanted more? He couldn't even care about why he was there anymore.
Against Tyrant, wasn't Thanos able to just smile, say "mission accomplished", and take off?
Which opponent did he try harder to defeat?
Thanos didn't try to defeat Tyrant because he knew he can't. He just wanted to engage and get the data he wanted.
And, just to be clear, I believe that Tyrant SHOULD be able to defeat Odin. According to who and what he is, the win should be his.
But, for whatever reasons, using Thanos as a "measuring stick", Odin performed better in my opinion.
I am simply defending Odin's position without impunity or prejudice. He is my client and he has a case. 😄
Maybe, it can be said that Odin had more power because his battle took place in Asgard and he was able to pull power from the entire dimension.
Or, maybe Tyrant did not do as well against Thanos because he chose not to, or he is still damaged from his ancient battle with Galactus, or maybe Thanos had another edge that was not mentioned.
Who knows?

So you admit that you know the panels in question...Good...no need for you to attempt to deflect your phail argument with such nonsense from this point on then.
As for your argument itself, its bull crap; you know the dust obscures them in the 1st panel and in the 2nd it no longer does...its called a visual clue...yes, there is nothing saying exactly how much time has elapsed between each panel but enough time has elapsed so that the dust has settled...got it?
I hope so...I kinda think you are using the "play dumb" tactic to win this argument...just like Quanchi does when I have his back against the wall pertaining to Thanos.
The rest of the panels are self explanatory and dont fall under the example you are attempting to make with Supermans fist...
The bottomline is that Odin had time and opportunity to attack a defenseless Thanos but chose not to (he had mercy on him); anyone with common sense and a working pair of eyes can clearly see that...
Unfortunately, Thanos fanboys lack these attributes when Thanos is involved in the discussion...
💃
me knowing how the fight went has nothing to do with the fact i simply asked you to post the scans so i can make myself more clear, if you got some E rage just because someone ask if you can post the scans then i would recommend a psychological help.
how is my argument fail if you didnt adress my point nor did you deflect them.
as i said again if you reffering to the dust in the first pannel and then disappearing then as i said before a small portion of dust can vanish within mere seconds, its not a sand storm but a minor portion of dust, beside that do we know the dust is all gone from the air? i think the artist intention was to portray a situation where you can suddenly see thanos therefor its a visibility issue , however as i pointed out such a portion of dust can disappear within mere seconds at least to the point the object is visible.
prove it, i say the rest of the panels simply put a dramatic spotlight on his get up movement prove me wrong, show me an evidence or proof that there was some period of time between each pannel which can put this whole scene as you say it was.
you really have some mental issues arent you, "tactics to win this argument"? "back against the wall"? you realise its just a forum discussion right? you realise we are not in court and you are not judged to life or death right? and you do realise i am not trying any tactic but just having a discussion and looking at the events from a more deep point of view, i presented you an option which you just cant decline because there is no way you can prove that there was a significant time period between each of those panels, so instead of saying "hey thats a possibility" you just go ape shit like i just stole the politzer prize from you, again you did not reffer to my points with anything but insults, i seriously think you should seek professional help since it seems like you are losing attachment to reality.
of course odin had a chance to attack thanos no question about that, however you are trying to stretch it to the point you can think odin could go back home watch some NFL eat shome chips come back and thanos would be still getting up, again if you cannot prove there was a time period between those scans you cannot say it took thanos that much of a time to get up and regroup himself.
LOM does try and stretch the point about Odin continuing to attack Thanos when he's down and saying he could've killed. Thanos could've VERY easily teleported out of there and left with utter ease. Odin wasn't killing anything that day... The worst that was going to happen was Thanos was going to flee and be hurt when doing so.
