The Guardians of the Galaxy have performed facing off Thanos many times in the comics. In one case, the team’s head, Star-Lord, crushingly destroys Thanos applying the Cosmic Solid, settling the Mad Titan into a stupor. This is all important considering the point that, unlike his cinematic complement, the ironic Star-Lord is not half-Celestial and is just slightly more important than a person in top condition.
