Hiya mate!

Just keeping the countdown going...

Spoiler

316 days to go ;-)

It actually hurts me to read a post like that now...however I suppose it should, given my ineptitude to get to the finish line.

Hopefully I can get a good run at things this week.

Hi,
one question. Exists out there maybe any online archive about the marvel/DC things you've talked about?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

Hi Rhuarc mate!

one question.

Fire away...

Exists out there maybe any online archive about the marvel/DC things you've talked about? Thanks in advance

Not as such, however I am devoting a small part of my website to cover the conversion between the Immortals Handbook and the MSH RPG (among other systems), which will include a more in depth treatment.

Was there anything specific you wanted addressed?

You know we're all just looking forward to it, right? I can't wait; this will be a great tool, I think, for campaign building. (Don't take my kidding too seriously!)

The problem I have with that is; Thanos (w. HOU) destroyed the Living Tribunal and multiple Cosmic Entities almost with one blast. His power is clearly an order of magnitude above the Living Tribunal. Given that the LT can destroy a single reality with one blast we have to assume Thanos power is something significantly beyond that, not slightly, but significantly.

Eggshell, hammer. How many Doomstar's could one Doomstar kill with a single Ground Zero given appropriate preparation and tactical advantage? Just because their offensive capacity is vast does not necessarily imply the same of their DEFENSIVE capacity...

Hi UK

Well, I'm finding the stuff about Thanos and the whole cosmic stories very intersting. Now I've found a Thanos-devoted HP and most of the background story I've looked for.
But I'll take a look at you HP as well, thanks

I know mate - I appreciate the interest.

I see your point...however, when dealing with cosmic types in the Marvel Universe their power can be used both offensively and defensively at will. So if the Living Tribunal was resisting Thanos (w. HOU); then he was effectively resisting with power on a universal level! If Thanos was only the 'GOD' of a single reality then why did he have any power over the Tribunal - who judges all realities?

Another point is that Thanos (in 'The End') constantly alludes to the idea that the Heart of the Universe is the power of GOD literally passed down to him. So it begs the question: "Would it really be GOD if it was only responsible for one universe?".

The catch 22 is:

Thanos (w. HOU) > Living Tribunal > Single Universe = Thanos (w. HOU)

There is a useful website on Thanos here:
