it's true. that's been his rep for what almost 2 decades. Norrin has more low showings regarding his durability than any herald-level character by a fair margin. It became less of an issue post-Annihilation but still.

that's one of the oldest reference you can bring up..hahahaha everyone has low showings in their career..that's just like bringing up Hulk being choked out by a snake..
only prob with this is that Silver Surfer has made a career of low showings. It was a running joke in the comic community that Silver Surfer was the cosmic gatekeeper. Whether you agree if the showing or think its PIS, If you wanna test your new/old character out just have him pwn Silver Surfer. Everyone and their grandma has gotten the better of Norrin. Nick Fury, Mexican farmers (TWICE!), Hulk, etc...What about Thanos low showing?
what comic board(s) were you associated with? -
Losing to Thanos isn't something to be ashamed of btw

Losing to Thanos isn't something to be ashamed of btw
Of course not, I love Silver Silver actually, despite the postings. It's just that he's nowhere near Thanos in power. Just remember that Thanos AND Norrin took on Odin at the same time. Odin one-shot Silver Surfer while Odin and Thanos traded blows for a considerable period. In fact Odin could NOT get a definitive win over Thanos (although he appeared to have the upper hand in the bout)
Silver Surfer's potential is enormous. But many writers (even good ones) often write him as a bruiser ala Hulk. Coming in with fists flying like he's a slugger. Oftentimes, Norrin gets knocked the ? out. He reminds me of Martian Manhunter, one of the most dangerous members in DCU lower than cosmic level. But ? , J'onn had gatekeeper status forever too.
I've been members of almost every comic board imaginable lol to answer your earlier question. It's not the same anymore though...and I'm really disliking the changes to DC that have been made. Somehow it's not grabbing my attention.

Cool and I agree..I'm a member of a couple of boards but its not the same anymore..it's fun to post here with others though. DC is always changing something and I really don't know why..granted that pre-crisis ? had to go but this new 52 i don't know why it was necessary. But hey its good to know another Surfer fan and yeah they need to get a writer who can accurately portray the guy..this latest nonsense of him being stuck on Earth guarding the seed is just pathetic. -

Dog, the first part of that inequality completely invalidates your opinion on this matter.
Surfer ain't seeing Thanos on any level.
While I won't say Surfer is on par with Thanos, Surfer has since had a power up since that comic book and while weakened, he was able to match Thanos' power output or however much power that was needed to release Galactus during Annihilation..Thanos was in the middle of releasing Galactus when Drax killed him, but only someone of at least Thanos' power signature or level was able to release Galactus according to the story.That's true, but at most that says that Surfer's energy output is on par with Thanos. It says nothing about their strength or durability which are Thanos' true claims to fame. Surfer is not Thanos' equal.Thanos has dishragged Surfer in pretty much every confrontation they've had. Surfer has gotten a power-up but we have no idea what difference that makes since they haven't fought since then. Based on established history though, Thanos is pretty far beyond Surfer.That said, didn't it say that Surfer matched Thanos' power signature not his output? I forget so I'm not saying for sure, but if that was the case, Surfer doing that wasn't a matter of energy output but of energy manipulation.
You mixing up signature with power though. Thanos' energy signature is simply the properties associated with the particular type of energy he uses. Surfer is a master energy manipulator. He could probably mimic the signature at any point. Energy manipulation is exactly what the term implies, the ability to manipulate energy. Yes synthesizing energy is a type of energy manipulation, but it's not the only type of energy. Surfer taking his own energy and changing it so that it mimics Thanos' is energy manipulation too.
And I can't believe that someone brought up the hammer incident as a knock against Surfer. We should all be able to agree that was bad writing. -

Thanos has had good showings against people who have wrecked Silver Surfer. Remember depowered Tyrant? Tyrant wrecked Silver Surfer, Gladiator, Beta Ray, Ganymede, Morg, Tyrax, jack o hearts, Legacy. Thanos survived Tyrant's onslaught. ? Thanos blasted Galactus off his ass and across a great distance before the big G got the upper hand. Norrin had a great durability showing against T&A, although my fav version badass depiction of SS was the Exiles version. ? was ruthless.

Thanos has low showings too , once he was beaten by Spiderman and arrested by the NYPD

Everyone has ridiculous showings. Let's not forget that Santa Claus invades Apokalips every year to take Darkseid some coal, and no one can stop him.

That's not a low showing, technically, Santa's sleigh moves much faster than light and he's a trill ? . The NYPD taking in thanos and him losing to SPidey is a candidate for the lowest showing of all time. Worse than magneto losing to wooden guns or Thor to a shotgun. -
That Santa ? is funny as all Hell

Squirrel Girl owning the ? Thanos.... -
squirrel girl takes down thanos but batman cant?

Squirrel girl can take down the entire Asgardian and Greek pantheons. Toss in classic Apokalips, New Genesis, Dark Dimension, Limbo, etc...it's just Marvel's way at poking fun at the fanboys by making all her feats canon.

Squirrel Girl could take down Batman.

You know what they say about a woman scorned.

Surfer also has more appearances than any other Herald, but I can't cosign that low durability statement..comics just don't back that up -

They were both amped up by those orbs. Thanos stole Morg's while depowered Tyrant has been using various ones. I remember after that fight that Tyrant went back into a chamber and had a gigantic orb awaiting him. I guess Thanos also had the prep advantage since he was doing a 20/20 on him and thus revealed his origins to Ganymede and debunked her claims of her tribe defeating Tyrant. Just trying to think of when SS and Thanos faced the same foe and instantly thought of Odin, Tyrant, and Galacus. Though Norrin did have Glads, Morg, Terrax, Beta, Jack, and Ganymede helping him to balance Thanos's solo showing.
I will say that toward the end of that arc, the writing became laughably atrocious with Morg's and Galactus' dialogue. I'll see if I pull up the scans. -
batman would get his damn head ripped off

Immortality: Thanos, like all Eternals, is immortal in the sense that he is immune to all known diseases and infections and is immune to the effects of aging. Formerly, Thanos was banned by Death itself from entering its realm, rendering him truly immortal. No matter the severity of any injury, Thanos was unable to die and completely recovered.
im confused about the statement above it says his immune 2 infections but in marvel zombies thanos got bitten&turned into a zombie&the zombie virus is a form or infection is it not?.....--__-- I Call ?

Marvel Zombies is like a what if storyline..an alternate universe so it's not canon to 616

Here's the Odin vs Thanos, Silver Surfer battle I was referring to earlier...(somebody put the arc in video form)
