The debate of which comic book characters would win in a fight has raged on for decades, and it looks two of Marvel and DC’s biggest villains have recently kicked up the conversation once again. On Tuesday, the DC villain Darkseid was one of the top trending topics on Twitter — and unlike recent random celebrities, it was actually for a reason.

As it turns out, the recent tweets about Darkseid weren’t tied to Ava DuVernay’s New Gods or Justice League‘s Snyder Cut, but to a “who would win” thread created by Twitter user @El__Yaq. One of the tweets in the thread wondered if Darkseid would win in a fight against Marvel’s Thanos, who hypothetically would be armed with one or two Infinity Stones.

The question of Darkseid vs. Thanos has certainly been picked apart in the past, but this new Twitter debate has sparked some pretty creative takes. Many have argued that Darkseid is just too powerful against Marvel’s Mad Titan, while some have poked holes in just how mighty of a villain the DC foe is. Here are some of our favorites.
One Take
Give Thanos all six and he still wouldn’t be as powerful as Darkseid. https://t.co/q9Nt7cwIVQ

Well, That’s a Mental Image
Thanos might get one or two hits in, but Darkseid would rip off his arm and beat him to death with it. No cap. https://t.co/n7GyBQ3czU

Evidence
Darkseid has previously killed Thanos in the DC/Marvel crossover comics, why is there even a discussion regarding this? pic.twitter.com/SFuiTeDfrE

A Possibility
Darkseid without the Stones. Thanos depending on which stones he’s allowed. https://t.co/UF7L2SMyHo

That’s True
Darkseid literally sends a nerfed version of himself to our reality. Even if thanos beats that nerfed version, which I doubt he could, the real darkseid 1 shots him https://t.co/xHZCNQ30qT
