Supernova runs the gauntlet

Alright Supernova is vastly powerful who brushed away attacks from Thing, She Thing, Human Torch, Firelord, Thor & Quasar. How far does he get?

Supernova- http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix3/novasaal.htm

1.Giant Man

2.Thing & She hulk

3.Iron Man & War Machine

4.Gladiator

5.Silver Surfer

6.WWH and 8th Day Juggernaut

bump

Before I give my opinion I'll preface it by stating whenever someone uses this guy in a thread all I can think about is the Powerman 5000 song.

That being said, Supernova falls at Gladiator on a good day or SS period.

Stops at 4

6

This guy had the Nova Force all the powers of his race.

4.

I'd say he stops at 5. Nova possessed the full Nova Force so was slightly more powerful than this guy, on top of that he wasnt corrupted by the power he still had his wits about him and he was beaten by Surfer quite easily.

Didn't Reed make a device for him to go back home?

Co-signed. From what I remember, Supernova was taking on the FF, the Avengers(including Thor, Quasar, and classic Wonderman), and Firelord and doing a pretty good job. And unless I'm remembering wrong, in his next appearance(Nova vol. 2) he blasted Airwalker and Firelord into another galaxy or something like that.

Meh, Richard Rider had the whole Nova force and Worldmind, and Surfer was still owning him.

I'd say stops at 5.

Rich held back power because he was afraid of going insane like Super Nova.

He was holding back power to begin with, but by the Annihilation main series he was doing fine using most of the force. And by the time he fought the Surfer he was happily using the full Nova force. I mean, some of his feats would require the whole Nova force to accomplish, ie, going toe to toe with a Mature Technarch. Its just Worldmind being within Richard allowed it to regulate and use the power w/o overloading/insanity.

At least thats what it seemed like to me.

Just because Nova improved it doesn't mean that he started using the full Nova Force. You want to see Richard using the full Nova Force? Check out what happened back in the day when got access to it by merging with Super Nova(turns out I was wrong before, it wasn't Super Nova, just Nova with Super Nova's power)...

Unless Nova was functioning on that level, we can't assume he started using the full Nova Force unless it was specifically stated(which would retroactively down grade the Nova Force or make Surfer a REALLY bad mofo).

He doesn't appear as powerful as he was as Supernova alone

Supernova vs
