Thanos has never really died as his mistress "Death" granted him immortality. He got turned to living immobile stone by Adam Warlock, not killed. Drax punching his heart out was pure BS as Thanos body is resistant to a direct blow from Thor's hammer and has been blasted by the power cosmic of the Silver Surfer but Drax mere fist could punch thru him? Yeah, OK, Pure BS writing IMO.

So many people seem to think that Thanos is only formidable due to acquiring the Infinity gauntlet, not in the least. Thanos is of the "Titan" race, who thru various means augmented his already vast powers as to demi God like scales. He took on the Thing & Thor simultaneously in his 1st encounter with the Avengers, Thing, Spiderman, Adam Warlock & Captain Marvel, heck, it took all those heroes combined to try & take him down & in the end, it was Warlock, come back from the Gem World, who took him down by turning him into a stone statue. During his quest for the infinity gems, he had to defeat immortal & powerful beings such as Champion, the runner, the Gardner & the Gamemaster to aquire the 6 gems of power. Thanos is 6'7 985lbs of massive muscle & power. No need to depict him as being a hulk sized Giant just to covey power. I think that is the major problem the last 10-15 yrs with artists. They feel like every super strong & big character has to be drawn Hulk sized or bigger. Juggernaut was already huge at his original hgt of 6'10 900lbs, no, they have to make him an 8-9 footer and weigh 1000+lbs. Rhino was 6'5 and around 650lbs, now he's Hulk sized. Same goes for the Thing who's 6' 500lbs, but artists draw him Hulk sized. Sasquatch at 10 feet tall always towered over every other hero/bad guy, now they wanna make other characters nearly as big as him.

The main reason the classic Hulk/Thing battles were so great back in the 60s/70s/80/s and even 90s, was due to the size difference between him & the Hulk & Ben always felt like he had to prove he was a tough & as strong as the Hulk when they fought & even though the Hulk won the vast majority of their battles, Ben gave it his all & it made you root for him as the underdog. Now with the Thing drawn Hulk sized, their battles don't have the same excitement cuz he looks like he can now take down the Hulk. I just really wish that artists would strictly adhere to the characters listed hgts like the artists back then did & not just take this BS artistic license and make them bigger cuz they think they will look cooler at a larger size. I know I'm in the minority with this, but I don't care.
