The sword's power remains and it is specifically stated that Odin uses his power to both disconnect Mangog from his source and sheath the sword. This is in the story and in the bio:http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_super/12/125547/3325452-u.a.d.n.032.jpg

It seems pretty evident that Mangog with the sword is more than Mangog without it and that significant power is needed to fling the sword back into its scabbard. Thus, Abhi's comparisons here are flawed.

So when Mangog says "the power of the sword is mine" and we see energy crackling around him which is released in an explosive attack on Asgard, that means the sword has no power? 😕
A few more comparisons between Thor and Odin.
Thor and Odin vs Surtur. Surtur is beaten.

Odin and Balder along with Warriors Three. Odin and the rest are beaten.

Oh and Odin along with a bunch of Asgardians including Thor, Vidar etc vs a random red dragon. Odin stuns himself punching the dragon and steamrolled along with the other asgardians. The dragon is hilariously beaten by colliding with a mountain.

And your basis for this? The contextual implication is one of significant power.
Also, I'm not sure of the point of showing Thor and Odin fighting together as it relates to Thanos/Darkseid. Seems to be a lowballing quest. Odin is listed as 60 tons, so fights where he is conspicuously not using the Odinpower don't really say much. And he is not physically stunned by punching the dragon.

Why not? We are comparing Odin and Thor. He is not using Odin power because he doesn't go pew pew?
😂

No, the expressed fact is that the Odinsword would not destroy the universe outside of space and time. It still wields power as stated by Mangog and as shown in the image. But do flail away.

No, you are.

I'll remember that when you claim that Superman is not using his speed. 😈

Superman using his speed is a conscious decision. Everything Odin does is with Odin power. Without it he is powerless. It's like saying Superman doesn't use solar energy when he fights.

By feats and on-panel history, Odin can simply do and has done things that the other 2 can not.
He has just done too many things that were, or should have been, far above his pay-grade. But, they r in the books.
