Thor's durability and damage soak are significantly higher with the portion of the OF flowing through him. He could endure mostly anything Scott can throw at him to say nothing of the defenses Mjolnir provides.
Alan's pretty much the only Lantern type - barring the likes of Parallax or Ion - I'd say has a good chance against Thor. While he won't run out of energy like a typical ring based Lantern would, Thor can still absorb or block most of what Alan can throw at him, though.
Thor's a terrible matchup for Lanterns. His energy soak basically has no equal in comics at this level. Alan has more raw power, but I'd give the slight majority to the Asgardian.
So it's not so much a true power comparison as it is the interaction of their powerset. Thor wins, but it doesn't mean I think he's above Alan overall.
It's funny how one word can invalidate a response.
Regular Thor has the feats to suggest him contending with Scott. While Scott definitely veers into trans territory, it's more of a power-set match up as opposed to a tier one, one that Thor holds the advantage in.
Thor with the Odin Force makes this more comfortable a victory for him, though.
I'd say regular Thor could split with Alan, but I have no issues if someone thinks Alan takes it 6-7/10.
OF Thor should win like 6-7/10, though.
The Starheart is, for all intents and purposes, a greater source of power than the Odin Force, but Alan's never used it to a degree on panel the likes of which would be beyond the Odin Force. Even Alan completely unleashed on panel wouldn't be beyond King Thor, for example.
A theoretical Alan Scott would be grossly overpowered, though.
Jake and I are pretty in sync on this one. Neither one of these guys is out of the others' league, and Thor is THE high herald energy absorber when he turns off the stupid and uses Mjolnir at all. Alan would have a hard time overcoming that normally, much less with OF.
He's got more potential power, including the OF, but he's up against basically the worst possible power set for his abilities.
But like, if Alan goes suicidal, over-9000 from the get-go, he might just KO Thor. So it's not a toss-up, I see Thor winning something like 8/10, but it's a good fight.
Oops, I didn't see OF Thor, it would be a much better fight. Magic weaknesses doesn't guarantee a win, IMO. Alan was owning the combined might of JLA/JSA and Thor isn't that powerful. Speaking about normal Thor.
Again, not so much power levels and their scope as it is power sets as opposed to one another which is the primary factor here.
I don't see normal Thor handling the combined JLA/JSA rosters like Crazy Alan did, but Thor's power set enables him to do quite well against Alan himself.
