They'd be comatose at best, dead at worst. The first scream -- the one that took out Attilan and a good chunk of Manhattan -- would be more than enough to knock them the phuck out, if not kill.

Yeah... That was back when it destroyed electrons or whatever... None is more disappointed than I. But alas, you can't argue with the material. At least with the Vulcan showing you could kind of go "yeah but... Vulcan controls energy and maybe he nullified it's effects somewhat blah blah blah..." As it stands now, unless its explained later as BB not really unleashing it full bore for fear of destroying everything or what have you, Thanos tanking it at point blank range, followed by a face palm/choke slam to KO is the final nail in the coffin for that attack as the be all end all.
Not at all. Again, it's Thanos and that is the only explanation.
Tom Brevoort said something interesting.
I think you may have mentioned this before, but can you explain the way how Black Bolts voice works currently? In Infinity#4 during BB's confrontation with Thanos it seemed like his voice's destructive ability was toned down. I imagine this is subject to change;regardless, can you tell us how much control you think he has over his voice, or how destructive it is?
windcaster864Well, Black Bolt had just vaporized an entire city with his voice moments before that conflict. His voice is unbelievably powerful and destructive, but it draws its energy from the same electron charge that empowers him in other ways, absorbed through the tuning fork on his head. Having expended so much energy in destroying Attilan (and surviving the detonation), there likely wasn’t as much gas left in the tank for the subsequent fight with Thanos.
mmm

He'd definitely be fine.

Superman has done that at least three times, two times under a red sun.
I was just commenting on the notion that a mere scream was going to KO WWH, when Hulk has 1) already powered through that ferocity of attack from the SkrullBolt and 2) far more devastatingly explosive attacks have left him less troubled than even Thanos was in the instance this whole thread stems from.
Also, again, the scream that Thanos took was _amped_ by Maximus' bomb.

It's consistent with that comic insomuch as the events that he describes happened in exactly that manner. However, the ill effects (fatigue, weakened state etc.)of the energy expenditure after the initial scream is conjecture on Tom's part.

Sure buddy, sure.
