When fighting at Knowhere, a single electrical shock from Proxima Midnight knocked him out. This can't be the same Thanos that Thor, Iron Man, and Captain America couldn't defeat, let alone incapacitate in Endgame even before he re-acquired the Infinity Stones. P.S. I'm sending this tongue-in-cheek. I know this is more of an alteration of convenience in a cartoon, but I did think it worth noting.” - Jeremy N, Virginia Brief reactions BreakdownIron Man 2 section Black Widow Thor section Loki’s arrival (Casket of Ancient Winters) The Incredible Hulk section(Exploding Hulk!)
