We know Thanos can wreck most heralds.

Yup.
It took 3 telepaths Moon Dragon ,Cosmo ,forgot the 3rd just to keep a ramapaging weakened Thanos's mind in check.
When he regained his sanity the telepaths were no longer able to get a hold on him.

Its like writers give him no weakness at all.

I'd love to see how he deals with Hulks strength, it's a shame they haven't had a full on out and out fight yet. I've no doubt that in a comic Thanos would win but it would be interesting to see how he deals with Hulks might as both have grown in power over the years.


He's already fought Hulk in the past (e.g., overpowering Hulk and Thing at the same time while mocking their strength). More recently Thanos mind raped Hulk instantly, controlling him like a puppet. And yes Hulk stated he was angry just prior to him being mind raped.

Adding Hulk to any team against Thanos would be bad for the team. He'd just get turned into Thanos' pawn and used against the team.

Mantis. Even then Thanos was fresh off a cosmic cube attack for a ko before they were even able to psionically restrain him.

You guys are approaching the problem of Heralds beating Thanos from the wrong angle; you need a Herald that can make the environment work against the Mad Titan...

In which case, Henshaw on Galactus's worldship or Henshaw on the surface of planet Cybertron or Unicron solos...

I disagree with both of youse!

Thanos from GOTG was being temporarily subdued by inferior telepaths. Cosmo's a powerful telekinetic but his telepathy ranks below that of imperial guardian Oracle. Oracle + shields couldn't stand against 4 stepford cuckoos.

Cassandra Nova was killing Charles when he was a Cerebra. That's probably some of the most powerful telepathic feats I can imagine. Her, Manchester, Loki, X-Man and Captain Comet?

I don't think anybody could survive a combined telepathic attack from them.

I'll concede that trying to control Thanos is hopeless. His willpower is too great. But being resistant to telepathic control/intrusion is not the same as being able to withstand a psychic bolt.

inferior ? MD Has mind controlled entire planets and was easily a match for Xavier.

Cosmo Is a top telepath he ko'd everyone on Knowhere instantly including phyla Vell who had the quantum bands that have always been resistant to TP

Okay.

They're still inferior to Cassandra Nova.

A match for Xavier's hardly a feat for someone who was killing Xavier x12.

Although some high heralds can solo Thanos
Any 2 high end heralds should be more than enough really.
Surfer and Thor
Superman and Thor

Remember the team is fighting Thanos at the same time, and not one at a time as they sometimes do to Thanos (and in movies)

so you think Cassandra could beat all 3 combined?

Yes.

No doubt.

Cassandra Nova doesn't belong in 'low herald' mind you, considering she shit on the Xavier x12, the imperial guardians twice AND the x-men.

Man just stick to posting in my strength calculations thread since you seem to have genetic predisposition towards that kind of thing. This type of thread though? Do yourself a favor and steer clear.

The first instance, could you tell me just when? Which part of the issue too? If possible scans too. And if I remember, he did the same to Thor and Thing. And funnily enough, Hulk has resisted teleapthic attacks from the Stranger and Shaper of the Worlds, and from Glorian, the latter's apprentice. The former two are on par and possibly above post retcon Beyonder, and the latter is a reality warper who was being trained in his powers by Shaper. Thanos immediatly became above them in telepathy? And the weakest of minds apparently has enough willpower to overpower multiple mids from a gesalt being of several hundred people. Hmmmm.

Can nu 52 Superman sundip?

I'd be wary of putting Surfer in any list to fight Thanos.

the hulk hating is blinding people from the real topic here. Hulk isn't fighting him by himself guys. His powerset can add to this team's strength because you'd be crazy if u think Hulk can beat Thanos one on one lol.

my team would have to be all the top dogs in the high herald division

Sentry
Surfer
Thor
Supe
Hulk
