You're using a low-end Thanos and they only beat him because of the Elders of the Universe. If you read the comic, Thanos even said that he was about to wreck their sht just before the Elders came. Also, your team has 4 heavy-hitters while the ones who fought Thanos had 3 so there really isn't that much of a big difference even though you're using a poorly-written Thanos.The team that Lord Mar-Vell utterly wrecked in the Thanos Imperative would be all-around superior to the one who Darkseid fought. Thanos later proceeded to absolutely fodderize Lord Mar-Vell. Thanos has beat the likes of The Maker and has also held his own against Death Walker. Hell, his corpse was left unscathed after taking Galactus' galaxy wiping AoE blast in Annihilation. So tell me how Darkseid fighting against 4 herald-level characters stack up to those feats that I just specified.
Also Popping planets like balloons is not an impressive feat at all by any of the other three characters' standards so idk why you would even mention that...? Just for future reference: Saiyan Saga Vegeta was already a planet buster and Thanos on his first appearance destroyed a planet by fighting Drax h2h. 'Seid is the weak link, but he's lucky enough to have big brother Thanos pick up the slack.
No they didn't, the Elders came AFTER Thanos lost the Cosmic Cube and got his ass beat. This isn't a low end showing, Thanos has never been very good against entire teams of heroes.
Let me know when any of those characters can bench press the freaking Earth for 5 days, let me know when any of those characters have femtosecond reaction time.
None of those characters come close to the physical stats that Flash and Superman have. New 52 Superman and Flash would steamroll that team.
All Thanos managed to do was mind rape the Maker, earlier she freaking one shotted him and knocked his ass out.
Galactus didn't have a galaxy busting AOE attack either, it wiped out 3 solar systems. And it's an AOE attack it isn't concentrated so it's not a very impressive feat. Plus I'm pretty sure Nova survived it too.
Thanos and Drax busting a planet together is a DUAL FEAT. You need to show Thanos busting a planet by himself for him to be comparable.
Same goes for Surfer, the only time I've seen Surfer destroy a planet was when he fought Morg, another dual feat.
Not sure why you brought up Vegeta when he isn't in this fight, and he never busted a planet either, Arlia was filler and non canon.
If that's the best Thanos has then he's going down first against Asura. Maybe Darkseid will do the smart thing and leave while Thanos is getting sodomized.
