Any predictions on how his fight will turn out?

Who wins?

I think Thanos is about to get a new feat.

He is amped, right? I thought that was mentioned.

He should obviously get beat without that amp but I am sure he will stomp Than. Thank isn't very populur

The Thane should win but let's face it, Marvel has no love for the PF. Thanos will win decisively.

Thanos specifically states that he is seeking to "regain" his power:

But we'll know for sure if that 'boost' equates to an 'amp' in the next issue. If he can contend with Phoenix, though, I would certainly f*cking hope Thanos is amped... But this IS Phoenix we're talking about(who is basically a cosmic version of Apoc), so there's no telling... ermm

Anywho, the only logical outcomes are: a.) Thanos wins, or b.) Both die... Imo.

Since Death's the one that's been setting this whole thing up, I kind of think it might actually be part of a plan just to mess with Thanos's head. Maybe she's tying to make him worthy of her again or something like that. Maybe end up empowering him as a true avatar of death in the same way the Phoenix Force is the Avatar of Life.

Again?

Yup. Only in a more permanent capacity. Maye even give him a black fire phoenix energy signiture. It was already said that he was supposed to settle midway up the cosmic totem pole, this could be leading to that.

Slott occasionally writes lines that make little sense. Lemire has Thanos endeavouring to stop Thane from destroying the universe.

Do you consider Phoenix an alpha level threat?

Lol.

My arthritic 90year old grandma is human level in speed.

Usain Bolt is ALSO human level in speed.

By Carver's reasoning, my grandma is as fast as Usain Bolt.

Yes he is amped.

He went in to restore his power and gain greater power meant for him and his nephew.

The end result is his status being elevated to that of a God.

I hope he is in the same ballpark as Phoenix now, so above Odin. After the shit done to him by bendis he deserves some respect.

How do we know the PF is above Odin? If PF loses to Thanos, we'll know that : Odin > Thanos > PF. Because we've seen Thanos (fully powered) vs Odin on panel, Thanos put up a good fight but was losing.

I'm sure it was mentioned that he is amped Zop (thanks Galan for confirmation). The question is, will this be a permanent amp. If he does or doesn't beat Thane, it still will not be a fight with his previous power levels. Also, thought I read he will be having help as well.

I'm not all that sure about the level designations, but I have difficulty seeing Alpha as a level above Phoenix. What has Alpha shown?

Maybe not Zop. I mean Thanos is supposed to gain a power up that will place him above Odin and Zeus. Maybe that's what's going on here. We know that the Phoenix Force is likely above Odin as we recently saw her warn him about contacting her again or she would burn Asgard down around Odin's arse so there's that.

Galen says that he is boosted, differentiating a boost from an amp. He is boosted above the level he is at when he enters the god quarry (which is a severely weakened level), but we don't know if he is amped above his normal power level.

One can only assume that being boosted enough to compete with the Phoenix has to be an amp, but the dialogue doesn't seem to support that.

Thanos is by far the most successful and grandest villain of all comic book characters and about to be the pinnacle of villainy of cinematic universes as well. Look on with envy. Thanos definitely prevails.

Welcome back Quan!

WTF...Quan is back? I'm sure temporarily.

Didn't Thane with PF already stomped Thanos with ease? When is the rematch?

He stomped a severely weakened and deathly ill Thanos.

Ok... but since when has such level as Thanos a chance against Phoenix Force? Is this full power of PF or just some fraction? Is this an amped Thanos, and even with amp, how can he stand a chance against PF?

He is presumably amped to his former levels and quite possibly with the power of unknown deceased gods.

I believe that Thane possesses the ability to use the Phoenix Force in every way (read it for yourself) but, just not sure of his ability to amp to levels capable of damaging the Asgardian Destroyer?

Thanos has only gained his power back, the story makes it clear.

The writer believes Believes Thanos is that powerful he can challenge the PF. His interview on Thanos makes it clear.

Yeah, comics are becoming more and more stupid, so wouldn't be surprised if Thanos can challenge PF, because the difference between someone like Thanos and PF is beyond enormous.

There's an argument to say Thane is immature with his new position. His inexperience and lack of on the fly planning will be his Achilles .

Scans of thane?

Thanos is an awesome character. They just need to avoid overexposure with him.
