Thanos did get in a punch without the aid of the orb which floored Tyrant, other than that he prolly got in another 3 hits/blasts which was equal to what Tyrant got in.
Tyrant didn't get floored by a clean punch. It was a orb shot that brought him down to a knee.
It didn't even look like Thano's first blast even hurt him so it evens out to bout 3 apiece. Tyrant's shots look so much more damaging though.
If you count the explosion, that's a extra shot for Tyrant. Or maybe proof of extra durability.
Im not doubting Tyrants superiority in all areas over Thanos, but i was sure Thanos punched Tyrant mid fight without the aid of the orb which floored Tyrant.
Im not takling about that hit, Thanos smashes Tyrant in the face with his fist.
Have you got the comic or is it on disc? the reason i ask is because i have both, and on the disc that scan is missing for some reason..i can postthe sacn if you wish.
Is it me or does the Orb switch places in Thanos hands between the punch and the blast? I think the artist merely messed up. He meant to depict the hand Thanos punched Tyrant with to be the one holding the Orb.

The only reason I say the artist messed up was, aside from this attack, ALL his other attacks that phased Tyrant were by using the orb, either to blast or use it as a bludgeoning weapon. We saw how desperately Thanos reached for the orb when it was knocked out of his hand.
Now we have this one scan, where he's holding the orb in his left hand while punching with his right hand. Then the VERY next panel, he's holding it in his right hand, the same hand he threw the punch with the VERY last panel!
There is no way to say with 100% certainty either way, but taking everything into consideration, I'd say the artist intended for the orb to be in the hand Thanos threw the punch with.
PS This is the scan you were talking about right Nihilist?

The reason i believe he reached for the orb desperately was due to Tyrants clear power advantage over Thanos and as Thanos main aim was to steal the orb, if Tyrant had regained the orb Thanos would have never got it back.
He could have just switched hands, just as in one panel he is holding it in both hands then in just 1.
Agree to disagree then, as the artist had already done that before, this time he just wanted to show a clear punch imo
I think Onslaught Hulk will seriously do some hurting to Tryant.
My reasoning is that Onslaught did the virtually impossible and pierced Juggernaut like tissue paper. This means that Onslaught has strength beyond anything we seen (Tryant included). Now Onslaught Hulk not only overpowered Onslaught but cracked his chest. This means that Onslaught Hulk was operating at a strength beyond Onslaught, who was operating far beyond Tyrant.
The ONLY reason Hulk was able to do that was because Thor cracked his armor just prior. Furthermore, cracking somebody's armor doesn't mean you overpower their strength or it's some great strength feat on your part if there is no benchmark for how strong the armor was. Also, Onslaught beat Juggs... not because of his strength and overpowering him, but through TP, so I'm guessing you haven't read the story.
Everything that you have said is right except " Thor" cracking Onslaught shell. Thor didn't fight the same Onslaught Hulk fought. Thor fought the Onslaught that only had Charles and Magneto powers. Thor end up busting through a weaker version of Onslaught armor snatching Charles out.
Onslaught then receives a amp (and healed up competely from Thor assault before facing Hulk) by absorbing both Nate and Franklin, Thor along with Earths heroes were nothing but ants to him. Onslaught didn't suffer any damage until Hulk showed up and punched through his shields and ripped through his armor. If it wasnt for Hulk, the entire planet would be under Onslaughts control.
I read it a long time ago so I could be mistaken. But I always argued the Onslaught feat was due to psionics and not strength yet everyone here argued me down. Now you are telling me you are siding with the old me? Well too late, from the story it doesn't mention he did what he did to Juggs because of TP. If I'm wrong then please post a scan or quote something from the comic.
Now durability doesn't tell anything about strength, but strength must give a minimum durability.
For example, if one can lift 100 tons with their hands with about 5 square inches of contact area then they have the durability to withstand 5 tons per square.
So Juggs may be more durable than most Hulks but not necessarily as strong.
With that said, my reasoning is the following:
It takes astronomical (if not infinite) strength to pierce Juggs. Since Onslaught pierce Juggs then his hands has to have a minimum durability to withstand the pressure of piercing him.
