THANOS: Under Trans........
Not your typical thread but I was having a discussion with a friend about this earlier and i think it could be answered here. Her argument was that Silver Surfer should be able to neutralize him given his powerset and abilities but is consistently made his b1tch.
What character under trans could effectively neutralize Thanos?
No outside help, no prep, fighting to the ABSOLUTE BEST of his/her abilities on a random encounter.
Who if anyone can put him down the Titan ???
Who can get 5/10?

Did you read my op nil? I didnt thinlk so she did (my friend). Her argument was given that he can amp, and the laundry list of feats that he has...he should atleast on his best day be able to gain atleast one win over him. I actually argued against it
The blackhole principle along with speed and being intangible alone trumps ANYTHING Thanos can do. Surfer can throw away his other powers and use only those three to be superior to Thanos.
With that said, Superman fighting at his best could win a healthy majority against Thanos easily.
Durability, raw energy output, head-to-head matchups, you have a lot to draw from to back Thanos. The Odin or Tyrant fights alone should be all the evidence you need. Feat for feat isn't necessary when it's repeatedly clear that he's operating on a higher level.
A girl who can have an in-depth conversation about Surfer v. Thanos?! I'm not even one of those "ZOMG I'm a dork and a girl likes comics!!!!11!" types. But I don't think I have encountered this yet. Girl comic fans, sure. Girl comic fans at that level, heck no.
None of that matters vs Thanos. As we've seen, characters survive unscathed inside stars, black holes, etc... yet get wrecked by lightening attacks or sheer physical force, things aren't supposed to make sense in comics.
How else can you explain why Gladiator can waltz through the heart of a supergiant star with all it's million of tons per sq in of pressure and millions of degrees Celsius temps, yet get owned by Thor's lightening?
That's why I say feats (including displays of power) are only good for Respect threads, but in the VS forum fights matter. Going by fights, Thanos wrecks Surfer 1000000000000000/10.

That's just it, I have plenty of friends. I'm out like 4 nights a week on average. I just have no friends (or few) into comics. It's part of the reason I latched onto KMC - it's my outlet for that particular interest. Generally if a friend is into comics, it's 1-2 characters, not the industry as a whole, and definitely not Thanos v. Surfer depth.
It's entirely possible that this is more common than my experience leads me to believe. I just thought it was interesting.

Women like complex characterization more than over the top violence which is why most women shy from comics. i however grew up with brothers who pushed it on me. Most of the females i know who like comics prefer manga over american books because they are more romance based. Plus japanese books have more female authors and artists
I can think of 2 right off the bat (3 if they fought in a favorable environment) that are under Trans and should be able to defeat Thanos based off of what is possible given their powerset...
The Silver Surfer should be able to defeat Thanos every single time if he doent fall to comicbook stupidity and fight like a senile ape...
With creative use of his powerset, he could defeat Thanos many different ways without Thanos being able to do anything about it...much less fight back.
Nimrod has a powerset that would allow him to defeat most enemies (Thanos included) under Trans based on the fact that he can adapt to virtually any attack, reconstruct from powder, and scan an opponent for weaknesses and come up with a lethal solution for fealing with said foe...
Nimrod should be able to eventually defeat Thanos sans comicbook stupidity, CIS, and PIS...
Cyborg Superman could defeat Thanos every single time as well...but only if they fought in an environment that is very favorable to Henshaw.
Galactus's homeworld or the surface of planet Cybertron are two of several environments that Thanos would lose against Henshaw every single time if they fought upon them...
