Originally posted by uberhulkThor or Hulk didn't beat Thanos all the did was knock him over. You say about scans been ignored you're doing the same with your "proof" how about you post the scans of Thanos having Thor at his mercy whilst in his weakest form when Thor was aided by thing or the scans of Thanos easily dismissing Drax and Hulk with a back hand.
Starlin is a big fan of Hulk. People's perception of Thanos is skewed by a lack of context.During IG both Hulk and Thor beat down Thanos before he used the IG to shrink down Hulk and later turn Thor into glass. The so called pimp hand, when Thanos primed a nuke and thus Hulk and Drax couldn't attack further, is always shown, those scans however rarely are.
Nor are the scans in which an amped Gamora beat the tar out of Thanos during Warlock And The Infinity Watch 8 or indeed the scans during Thanos' infamous fight with Odin in which Odin states Thanos is using a power source i.e. an amp (Warlock And The Infinity Watch 25), thus explaining why Thanos was able to fight Odin evenly for so long.
Thanos is obscenely powerful but he is not more powerful than either Thor, Hulk, Hyperion or Gladiator. He's at their level, as his fight with Thor during Infinity showed. Neither of them were actually hurt, albeit Thor was knocked down twice.
Thanos' best showings are thrashing Silver Surfer, BRB and Black Bolt. His best durability feat is tanking a black hole that pulled in everything from 2 light years i.e. 12 trillion miles (Infinity Abyss 1 & 2). As impressive as that sounds Hulk tanks a blast from an anti-matter canon (Tales to Astonish 78) whereas Drax used anti matter to kill Thanos (The Thanos Imperative 3) and tanked a blast that destroyed an entire universe (Incredible Hulk 126), superseded by Hyperion tanked the death of two universes but whose counting?
I doubt there will be a decisive winner. They'll brawl then Thanos will talk Hulk out of continuing or Hulk will get bored. I imagine it will be more of an actual Hulk & Thanos team-up to stop Blastaar and Annihilus.
Gamora and Thanos were sparring and Thanos faked his injury even Gamora said so, when they actually fought before Thanos killed her.
Again more lies Thanos had no amp against Odin. The dark power source Odin mentioned is Thanos power death granted him or even his use if death/accult power.
Thanos was weak during imperative when the antimatter bomb killed him, hell it even says several times he isn't at full power.
90% of this forum would agree Thanos is more powerful than Thor, Hulk , Glad or Hyperion.
