While terribly damaged, it survived the first strike. Thanos needed to slap it in the next panel.

Thanos' slap > Thanos' punch. Canon fact.

Speed feat from Thanos. He's able to shatter the shield twice in the time it takes to shatter once.

Going by averages then shield all day long. Going by highest feat then Superman.

Superman has withstood Skyfather level attacks.

So have other top tiers. Cap is more durable than Superman's flesh which bleeds quite often.

Kind of had a brain fart and thought we were talking about the durability of adamantium for a moment, and went on a tangent. (Likely while a bit drunk.. ^_^😉

But basically, in the old Deaths Head 2 comics, a future Wolverine tries stabbing him with his claws, breaks off the tip of one claw, stares at it in wonder and says "Now there's a novelty.."

Because of how time travel works in marvel, that doesn't count for normal adamantium. Even if Logan called it "pure" adamantium, it still wouldn't count, because in Marvel, nobody really time travels.. They dimension hop/universe hop. Think a What If. ALL time travel are What If's in Marvel.

Take The Reigning vs Rock of Ages. In Reigning, it's argued the Thor of that story never existed the moment he rebooted time, and it was an alternate universe Thor that acted in that story, despite Thor himself remembering everything he did. Therefore, nothing in Reigning from the reigning is canon to 616 Thor, even before he gets his Odin powers..

Meanwhile, DC's Rock of Ages featured a future Darkseid taking over the universe, and a future Orion destroying and recreating it back to before Darkseid took the universe over with a genesis box. Both instances are usually treated as very high end feats of the characters, and not dismissed in the same way stories involving future characters in Marvel often are..

So in summory, Logan chipping his adamantium claw doesn't count, because not 616, as by definition 616 is the "present", with even the slightest deviation considered a different universe. But if a future WW broke her lasso....? It "might" count.. Depends on the circumstances, but it wouldn't be dismissed out of hand because of time travel mechanics, at least..

If it is canon to the mainstream characters then it counts. If it isn't then it is another character with different experiences. Simple.

What about Squirrel Girl vs Thanos? What would you classify that as?

That was a clone. That's pretty off topic though.

I am not derailing this topic any further because you had a meltdown earlier. Just get over it.

Concession accepted

Cap's shield it is, then. 👆

Canon.

Surviving Starbreakers power is up there..

Taking the unleashed power of the source wall is immense, on par with surviving high Skyfather/abstract power.

Did Thanos amp his fist with the energy (or whatever he's doing), like in the Cap scan?
I went back and checked. Aside from hitting Cap's shield, these are the only other physical blows Thanos delivered during that scene...

1.) Back-handing Thor:

2.) Killing Vision with a strike to the chest:

3.) Back-handing Cap:

...None of which appeared to be 'amped' or 'all-out' strikes.

Scanlan two of those scans are the same

They're all different scenes, you idiot. 👆
