Mr. Slippyfist
Due to the undenying demand of a KC Superman respect thread (and the fact that he was recently brought back into the spotlight)... ermm

Mr. Slippyfist
First off, we shall start with Kingdom Come.

Superman shows up, bends all the attackers weapons, changes the course of the river, and owns all the bad guys in one swift motion.

Rips a villain's suit apart.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/kingdomcome2-064.jpg

Wonder Woman catches the Statue of Liberty's arm, and in the next panel, Superman already has it welded back into its original place.

Bruce knows he can't hide from Superman.

Spectre talks about Superman/Batman.
He calls Superman "The pinnacle of otherworldly power".
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/kingdomcome2-076.jpg

Takes an attack from Human Bomb to no effect. Also, it also shows that at every turn he transforms enemies into allies.

Talking about the time he owned Brainiac.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/kingdomcome3pg13.jpg

Uses his super vision to check if the whole world is clear. He's doing it surprisingly fast as well.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/kingdomcome3pg23.jpg

Catches a punch from Power Woman.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/kingdomcome3pg24.jpg

Flies from the 'Watchtower' to Bruce's hideout in a short amount of time.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/kingdomcome3pg38.jpg

Shows Bruce what it feels like to disappear by the time he turns around. Also flies to the bomb site, but gets cheapshotted by Billy.

Mr. Slippyfist
Superman vs Captain Marvel
And his first 'real' fight, in a sense. He fights Billy, and takes a bunch of Shazam bolts, and still gets up to shut up Billy... good feat (yes, he still is weak to magic/has a problem with magic, so that's why it's all the more impressive).
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/kingdomcome4pg01.jpg

And the many megaton bomb gets dropped. Billy explodes it before it can hit the Earth... but it still kills every hero besides the ones protected by GL, and it has hardly any effect on Superman. Keep in mind Superman had just fought Billy.

Mr. Slippyfist
And these are from The Kingdom.
I'm pretty sure it's canon... however, I'm still unsure... anyway, I'm posting them anyway.

Olsen talking about how awesome Superman is. He even makes a house of worship for Superman.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/KingdomGog06.jpg
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/KingdomGog07.jpg

After Superman dies, he sits there with a couple other 'Kingdom Come Supermen', as they pierce the time barrier. It also shows one of them taking Gog's blasts, and you'll see in the next page why that's such a good feat.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/Kingdom0107.jpg
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/Kingdom0108.jpg

Takes a cheapshot by Gog. He gets up. However, he does get saved by the heroes in the next page following.

Heroes vs Gog
KC Supes along with Superman from an earlier timeline, and a bunch of other heroes vs Gog.

Clark has built up an immunity to kryptonite over the years.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/Kingdom0216.jpg

They stop him temporarily, and there's more battle, but this is the one in which Superman does something. erm

Mr. Slippyfist
Not really a feat, but in the last 'Adventures of Superman', it shows an appearance by KC Supes where he's fighting another Superman.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/Adventures_of_Superman_647_21-22.jpg

---

Makes a brief appearance in 'Superman: King of the World'. Superman 'T-Vo's' into KC Supes while fighting Dominus.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/Supes_KOTW-01-39.jpg

Kingdom Come is canon to DC's main multiverse, as Earth-22.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/52Week52-17.jpg

Mr. Slippyfist
Main Universe
Due to Starman time traveling, KC Supes is now in the main universe.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA921.jpg
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA922.jpg

Starman explains a little how KC Supes is there.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg07.jpg

Superman hears them through the doors.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg12.jpg

All of the sudden Superman is disgruntled... and he breaks right through the door. JSA tries to bring him down, and they have no success.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg17.jpg
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg18.jpg

http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg20.jpg

"Sonnuvagun is fast. Maybe as fast as Wally. Where the heck did he go---?"
Coming from Jay, that's pretty damn good... nevermind the Wally comment even.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg21.jpg

It turns out it was all the save a girl from committing suicide... which means that he must have heard her contemplate it before she even started... which might as well be another sense (ie, cosmic awareness, etc). Keep in mind that he was in an armored room when this happened.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg22.jpg

Three of them lift a big structure (seems kind of pointless, as Supes could have done it himself).
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA1211.jpg

Uses his X-ray vision, and super hearing at the same time.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA1309.jpg

His hearing is apparently better than regular Superman's. As he hears something in Gotham... from Metropolis...
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA1315.jpg

Superman/KC Superman vs Hercules
This is just cool. Herc gets woken up (as he went down against Gog), and the first thing he does is smash up regular Superman (granted it was sort of cheap... but meh). KC Superman completely owns Hercules so bad.
Shows a massive power difference.

Rorschach
Great thread. thumb up

Though, I don't think The Kingdom is still in continuity. Everybody on New-Earth seems to be meeting KC Superman for the first time, there's no mention of his child, etc. Gog also seems to have a new origin, which is looking more and more like the one Ross had originally planned for the character.

It's no secret that Ross didn't like The Kingdom, and it looks like he's out to 'erase' the story.

Ya... it seems Superman was plucked out right after the war, and then the planet was destroyed... Ross got his point across after I re-read JSA some more.
Still though, the feats don't seem like they're out of the realm of possibility.srug

Some other feats from the Main Universe.
Here Superman looks like he's using his vision to see events in the world like he was right there.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg15.jpg

Apparently Superman traveled through a black hole to get to the current Earth (as Starman opened a black hole as confirmed here).
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA010pg16.jpg

It confirms it here again (although it says it acted as a wormhole). It also says that his world has been destroyed.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA1108.jpg

Hears events on Ellis Island.
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o106/bigbran1/KCS/JSA1111.jpg

He threatens to scatter a bad guy across the Atlantic. And judging by the background of this guy, and the brackets, it seems Superman can also speak Japanese.

Yeah over the years KC supes has develop more of a resistance to magic, he is not immune to it but can deal with it better then current supes.

Pyron_Knight
Hasn't there been like any new feats?

KC Superman demonstrates an immunity to another universe's K-Nite, while he owns a few of Luthor's goons:

i think that was retconeed for the mainstream CM which is still stupid as Black marvel recieves his powers from eygptian pantheon ,should be fair that CM gets it from greek.The greek god did originally power CM.... also its interesting to see how this CM hasn't aged while billy has reached prime, and while teth hasn't aged since prime neither has BA

Galan007
I noticed this hadn't been updated in a while...


KC Superman literally punches 3rd-World Gog's 'magic' lightning right back at him:

http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes1.jpg http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes2.jpg http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes3.jpg

Not only did that actually harm Gog, but it also saved Jay's life.

---

Superman rips Gog's head off, and with Starman's help getting there, places it on the Source Wall:

http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes4.jpg http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes5.jpg http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes6.jpg http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes7.jpg http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv95/galanphotos/th_kcsupes8.jpg

Note that he tanks a eye blast from Gog in the last scan, relatively unscathed.

---

Supes then has Starman to send him back to his earth/the exact moment he 'left':
