    Not actually from the mythic titans of the Olympian myths?
    They were originally the titans from greek mythology before Gruenwald and Stern retconned them into being related to Earth's Eternals. This still doesn't make Thanos any less mystical and larger than life.
    I think an easy way to look at Thanos stories is that anything written by Jim Starlin, Ron Marz and Keith Giffen is the real Thanos while anything written by other authors should be dismissed as a Thanosi clone.

    It's interesting to see DC mention them, kinda makes me wish Marvel and DC still did crossovers.
    I love that they say Hulk Is potentially stronger than Doomsday.

    Not even potentially, they just straight up say he is stronger than even Doomsday lol. Not gonna like that put a smile on my face, especially when it's coming from DC.

    Oh man how i wish Marvel and DC still did crossovers...

    Especially after Screwattack having Hulk getting killed by Doomsday in a Death Battle.

    I could swear there was a crossover where Hulk beat Doomsday...or maybe he fought Superman.

    Okay cool, so he isn't Olympian myth now, so that would mean he is less mystical than when he started if at that point he was related directly to those Olympian myths

    Thanks for the clarification

    Yep, just straight up stronger

    It's not ambiguous at all in the panel

    Savage Hulk fought pre-crisis Superman in an old crossover; it was something of a stalemate. Professor Hulk fought Clark, who barely won, in Marvel vs DC (winner was decided by votes); I don’t think Hulk ever met Doomsday.

    In the Justice League/Avengers comic Thor and Clark fought with the latter winning, but by the end he was so exhausted the other Avengers made short work of him. I think Thor beat Doomsday in that crossover.

    I'd be cool with it as long as fights are not governed by fan votes.

    Clark also said Thor was one of the thoughest opponents he ever fought.

    PS: Supes met Hulk in one of the old Superman/Spider-Man crossovers.

    I did. The absolute best I can say is that it’s a mixed bag. There are some cool moments and the overall idea might be interesting in a vacuum, but Aaron’s lack of respect for continuity and his inability to resist sniping at Odin (and religion in general I feel) bring the whole thing down.

    Who else but Jason Aaron?



    Good riddance. I don't hold my breath for Cates though.

    When I read something like "the lack of respect for continuity and his inability to resist sniping at religion in general bring the whole thing down" the first person I think of is Jim Starlin, who is the godfather of that particular type of 'approach'. So, forgive me, but I'm somewhat amused by truly cosmic irony of the whole situation...
