The same color as the blast that thanos hit ss with in the first panel and similar to the energy emitted when he teleported with the surfer. Then in that 1st of the tiny scan's Thanos finishes a punch and you can clearly see his fist glowing with engery. Definitely was amping his punches.
Also the way surfer's blast dispersed after hitting Thanos' hand looks like he put up a shield. The energy from ss' blast after hitting his hand, went around thanos instead of going straight into his hand and face. Looks like Thanos had prep here.
He did not use shields. Not sure how you came up with that.
What does having tech have to do with how Surfer got stomped here? Thanos almost always has tech. He is a being of both science and magics.
What does him amping punches have to do with anything?
Again he did not use shields in the traditional sense. Yes he did if you count his own hands. In fact that scene is almost lowballing how he usually treats Surfer's blasts. Normally he eats them up with a smile. I can show you that too if you want, but you should just take my word for it.
Why would you think he had prep? 😮
