Ever since he made his first appearance in the 1973 subject ofThe Invincible Iron Man#55 , Thanos has caused his fair share of end across the Marvel Universe . In both the comics and the MCU , the Mad Titan has succeeded in gather all six Infinity Stones , which he uses to pass over out one-half of all life in the universe . But as prejudicial as this may have been , it might storm many to watch that Thanos is far from one of the most powerful character floating around the risible script universe .

While Thanos may be strong enough to wield the Infinity Gauntlet , there are a number of gods and cosmic entities that could easy click Thanos out of beingness using nothing but their baseline power . In fact , Thanos is n’t even a god himself , but rather an aeonian - Deviant hybrid who desperately need to be worshiped as if he were a idol . In the comedian , it ’s often this lack of self - esteem that leave to Thanos ’s fall – though we badly doubt he ’ll make it that comfortable on the fighter in the upcomingAvengers : Endgame .

It ’s also unlikely that one of these cosmic powerhouses will swoop in and undo Thanos ’s actions in the motion picture , as we would n’t want to see anyone but the already - establish torpedo bring about the licking of the excited Titan . But that does n’t mean these Marvel gods ca n’t appear in future installments . In fact , a number of them have made their MCU debut , many of whom could have easy defeated Thanos if he did n’t have the Infinity Stone .

Here are25 wonder Gods Who Could Actually Challenge Thanos .

Loki

Of of course , we ’ve witness what happens when Loki faced off against Thanos when he had just one of the Infinity Stones . The altercation result in Loki ’s demise , and we have no idea if he ’ll make it back to the MCU ’s present daylight timeline . Of course , without an Infinity Stone , Loki could certainly give the Mad Titan a test for his money . Loki ’s force include everything from superhuman strength and speed to shape - shift and telepathy . If he was n’t agitate for fourth dimension , we have no dubiousness that Loki could hatch a formidable scheme to trance Thanos off guard .

Thor

While Thor may not be a schoolmaster of manipulation like his pal , what he lacks in sleight of hand tricks he makes up for in raw power . Even when Thanos had the fully assembled gauntlet inInfinity War , Thor still almost get the better of the Mad Titan using his new axe , Stormbreaker . But if both were dismantle of their weapons , Thor seems like he would certainly have the branch up during a hand - to - hand fight . He is a god , after all , while Thanos has n’t quite achieved god - condition in either the MCU or the strip .

Hela

Hela has all the powers of an Asgardian god – already making her warm than most Marvel characters . But she has a number of other attributes that give her an advantage over most of her people , Loki and Thor let in . Hela has a accord with Mistress Death , which give her extra magic ability – including being able to travel to any of the Nine Realms in an trice while also being able to rip a soul from an individual ’s consistence . We ’ve ascertain her shatter Mjolnir in an instant , so we can only imagine what would happen in a friction match between Hela and Thanos .

Odin

Maybe it ’s no coincidence that Thanos waited for Odin to pass away before enacting his master plan . The All - Father was the mightiest of the Asgardians , whose physical and magical abilities were corking than those of Thor in every aspect . He was able to keep Hela at embayment even during his later days and he prevented Ragnarok from require place many times . But the All - Father is a luck more than bluff military unit , as Odin has won a number of battle thanks to his skills as a professional strategist .

Chthon

Chthon is an Elder God who was make jillion of twelvemonth ago when Demiurge decided to rive his cognisance into multiple entity . One scene of himself begin to settle on on darkness and chaos , contribute nativity to the being jazz as Chthon . Chthon is a master of black magic , with powers so great that he could murder the other sr. Gods and give off their energy . The demon finally makes a pact to stay within his own pocket dimension – where he is basically unvanquishable – though Chthon has still been known to bring havoc in other realness .

Kronos

Originally an Eternal of Earth , Kronos went on to achieve cosmic entity status during his early days in the comics . After his body was destroyed during an experiment gone ill-timed , Kronos became a formless being with approximate - infinite tycoon that touch that of Galactus . Therefore , it goes without articulate that Kronos would easily prevail over Thanos during most fights . While Kronos ’s body was indeed ruin , the entity sometimes takes the form of a humanoid so that lesser beings can comprehend him .

Surtur

base on the fervidness giant from Norse mythology , Surtur is a flak demon that commonly queer paths with Thor in the comics . This cosmic - level threat has already made his appearance in the MCU , as Surtur is eventually unleashed on Asgard where he single - handedly bring about the demolition of the intact land . He does so when he is bring into contact with the Eternal Flame , which greatly increases the demon ’s big businessman . But even without it , a fighting between Surtur and Thanos might be too close to call .

Bast

Bast is best known for being the Panther Goddess whose powers are synonymous with the Black Panther . But before she was ever being worshiped by the inhabitants of Wakanda , Bast was the child of Ra and a god to the Egyptians . She ’s been known to overpower beings as strong as Mephitso while also being able to merge the kinship group of Wakanda to rally against invading demons . Bast ’s world power are great and mysterious , and this goddess would no doubt be a redoubtable opponent to Thanos . However , this is one deity that still seems to favor to work through others .

Grandmaster

While the Grandmaster comes off as more of a jokester in the MCU , the one from the comics is one of the oldest and more herculean organism in existence . He is an Elder of the Universe who retains might from the Big Bang . This is what allowed the Grandmaster to maintain an Infinity Stone of his own , though he finally drop off it to Thanos in the lead up toThe Infinity Gauntletlimited series . But the fact that the Grandmaster could even stand toe - to - toe with Thanos earns him a smear on this listing .

Ego

While not technically a god in the comics , Ego the Living Planet still has enough exponent to put up a competitiveness against many of the other entities on this listing . The scoundrel made his MCU debut inGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2 , where the character ’s origin were shift to that of a Celestial . Here , it ’s expose that Ego has been planning to take over the universe with his expanding upon design . This no doubt would have made him a serious menace to Thanos , though Ego was eventually stopped thanks to his half - Celestial Logos .
