1. Cosmic Ghost Rider
Ok, so, I took a look at Cosmic Ghost Rider the other day and noticed that his 4-B justification is beating the Avengers...I'm sorry, what?? To make matters worse, his profile still talks about him killing Classic Thanos, whose comparable to Classic Adam Warlock. So, we've got two scaling chains in the profile. Let me elaborate:
CGR's current AP Justification basically says: Thor < Cosmic Ghost Rider. Because really, fighting that team of Avengers, is not much of a feat for 4-B outside of Thor. Savage She-Hulk varies is power, and nothing is shown during that fight of her being near her peak. Even if she were, that still puts her around Thor's level anyway. Captain Marvel is 5-A, so nothing there either. Captain America and Black Panther? Yes, they were amped by Celestial energy but we don't know how powerful that makes them, so CGR brushing them aside doesn't do anything for his justification.
Now CRG dominating and killing a Classic-level Thanos says: Thor =< Ulik < Olik < Classic Adam Warlock = Classic Thanos << CGR
Big difference there, wouldn't you say? Now, the only problem with this is that Thanos doesn't have a Classic Key.
2. Why doesn't Thanos have a Classic Key?
Thanos hasn't always been at the level he's at today. In fact, the level he's at wasn't something he attained until 1990, with Thanos Quest #1. Thanos originally appeared in 1973 in Iron Man #55. See, Thanos attained his modern level at the beginning of Thanos Quest because Death revived him while greatly augmenting his power on page 7 of the comic. So Thanos went 17 years before getting that upgrade and we already claim that his Classic incarnation was comparable to classic Adam Warlock. Hence, our current profile is inaccurate, unfortunately.
3. The Proposals
A. We give Thanos a Classic Key who is scaled to Classic Adam Warlock. This fixes the inaccuracy of the profile.
B. Thanos' current Base gets changed to Modern who is scaled to be superior to his Classic self. He really doesn't need his trouncings of Silver Surfer and Thor because he's already above them via being comparable to Adam in the past.
C. CGR gets scaled to his killing of Classic level Thanos, giving him a more concrete feat.
