I remember reading comics 20 years ago and I could have sworn him and surfer were pretty even....now it's like every time I read these threads, the guy is basically untouchable.....and the get up, it's just so f'n camp.Can't stand Thanos but given their powersets, it's not close. Thanos has energy and matter manipulation powers, plus telepathy, teleportation and magic (aside from Hulk level strength and durability). With his super alien level genius intellect, he could easily use those powers to find a way to defeat Black Bolt.
Ugh.
Yeah, he was always very powerful. At least on par with Silver Surfer. He's collected a couple of cosmic devices, granting him temporary omnipotence (Cosmic cube, & Infinity gems). That power isn't all removed when the object is taken away. Essentially a cosmic level power up. He's died a couple of times, been resurrected by mistress death, & granted some of her cosmic power. Another cosmic level power up. He's been chosen by Oblivion (Another cosmic being) to be tha avatar of death.I remember reading comics 20 years ago and I could have sworn him and surfer were pretty even....now it's like every time I read these threads, the guy is basically untouchable.....and the get up, it's just so f'n camp.

The reason is to have a super villain that is stronger and more powerful than our heroes, so we get team ups and the heroes can go "all out"What's the value in creating a character that leveled up?
