Was the case, as Starlin retconned pretty much every loss Thanos had, regardless of the opponent he was facing.

No, not always. He actually got a power up some time ago. Prior to that, he was an athletic human.

Ah.....no. I know what you are trying to say, but no. Power levels are too far apart for that to be the case.
Tell that to Batman.

He was reputed to have super strength from the outset, due to exposure to mystical mists as a child. Its also whats kept Zabu in his prime so long.

I'm not saying it doesn't happen, I'm saying it didn't happen because Thanos is a Mary Sue. That shit needed to be corrected regardless and should never have happened.

No, it happened because Starlin loves Thanos, in a "Japanese guy marries his pillow" way.
While your opinion is perfectly valid (there are fights i feel like that about, pretty sure everyone has some), he didnt retcon it out of some ned to keep comics sensible or some shit.
But i digress.
Ka-zar it seems, has this match in hand.

Funny, all i see when i take a step back, is a comic book.
So basically, you admit that you dont take powersets and appearances seriously when you reply to threads?

I admit Starlin's a little *****.
I admit The whole "Ka-zar beat (an obviously weakened) Thanos, OMG thats an affront to the reality that is comics" mentality is bullshit because he's not say, Batman, or some other uber fan favorite.
I admit you suck at trying to make it seem like i'm saying something other than that.
I admit i find the above funny as hell.

You admit that Starlin sucks because he took and fixed another writers garbage that was so bad, it wasnt even believable in comic book lore and you dont like that.

So if Ka-Zar was as popular as Batman, Superman, or Spiderman, it would be more believable to you that he beat Thanos? I admit, I find this funny as hell. Let me clue you in on something. Batman, Superman, and Spiderman cant beat Thanos either, let alone some Tarzan wannabe. Its not a factor of how popular the character is, its just not in his powerset to do so.

I admit that you just suck period.

He's saying it would be more easily accepted.

Thanos doesn't deserve half of respect he's getting on this forum.
Ka-Zar instance deserved to get retconned, obviously, but it happens to other super-powerful characters as well... like when f*cking Mephisto got knocked down with a single punch from Panther.

"He just ran up and punched him? He punched the devil in the face!?"
"Say it again, my manhood could not possibly get any smaller."
Hilarious scene. Anyway, I still think punisher takes a solid 6 or 7/10 with difficulty.

I understand what he's saying, I just dont understand why. If its totally fine to accept things like Ka-Zar beating Thanos (I cant even type it without laughing) and Batman beating Grundy, then why are we here? Sure writers do these things once in awhile to be cute, but common sense should prevail more often than not. Theres a reason why we're not allowed to use the Spiderman beating Firelord fight around here and its because its idiotic and unrealistic even to comic book standards.

And I agree with you on that.

He does.
He's quite impressive in the ones he does have, though - like knocking the spit out of Skaar's mouth.
Poor carver had a heart attack then.

Not really.
I care much more about the Punisher.
I'm just trying to be objective, unlike some posters.
