You can try to diminish Thane all you want but in that story, Thane was clearly set up to be just that powerful. Quote: Quote: I agree that DC has corrected itself and made Darkseid a true teambuster since the New 52. He's still in the range that Superman could pull off a win, but Superman would be and should be a big underdog. Prior to 2011, Darkseid's average depiction was clearly lower. How is Superman taking off a win when Darkseid has oneshotted him twice now? Even after New 52, DC has made statements that Superman rivals Darkseid in power: Quote: And how was Darkseid's average lower? I guess despite all of your posts here, you haven't read this thread.

Thane is a top tier who got a good showing at beginning and then nothing. Guess we got another character who has beaten Thanos one one one. Funny how that works.

That was an alternate universe Superman who was killed by Darksied and his earth destroyed. Which took Thanos an entire team and Anti matter bombs to perform.

I've read the thread, it's nothing but denial from the usual suspects now.
