Thanos has gotten an upgrade. It was stated that he was going to become more powerful than Odin and Zeus, and rival Galactus in power. He's shown a new ability in case you missed it? If you recall, he recently called the dead to fight for him under his own power. Besides, what has Zeus done of note? He actually has to prove that he's on Odin's level, Thanos has proven that he can take what Odin dishes, and continue to rise to his feet. That of course was a weaker Thanos. Zeus gets slaughtered.
Couple of things: a statement is one thing, feats are better. God himself can say Thanos rivals Galactus, but I'd still want feats. As for calling the dead, are these dead people just as potent as they were when they were alive? Does it include ANYTHING that has died? Has he called forth any of the dead cosmics that greatly outpower him?
Furthermore you said even without this power Thanos slaughters Zeus. You didn't actually cite why. No Zeus isn't on Odin's level true, but then you don't need to be Odin level to defeat Thanos one on one.
