Hmmm.

In all honesty, I don't see the gap between them being *too* great. Granted, Prime is basically a "silver age Kryptonian", but the fact that he's without restraint certainly helps. I'd say Prime begins by default stronger, faster, and more durable than Supes, but if Superman ever went crazy/emo, he would be able to rival Prime in certain aspects. I'm personally of the opinion that Superman is steadily increasing his Pre-Crisis levels anyway. And this is, of course, without factoring in the Guardian Amp.

Prime's shown himself to be his superior and shrug him off like a minor irritant. I think he's definitely stronger than him. We've seen Superman not hold back at all against WW. I think Prime would have wrecked her in moments to which she would stay down.

Oh, I'm not saying Prime isn't his superior; even if Superman went balls-to-the-walls, Prime would still be > than him, but the gap isn't that large as to claim it would be a spite in favor of Prime. Essentially every fight with Prime is a clusterf*ck, with various people getting in the way. And when Superman is directly involved, he's trying to either reach through to Prime, worried about the people around him, or dealing with other circumstances.

Look at the Ion/Prime battle for example. Prime, obviously, won the match. And yet a rookie Ion did better against Prime (refueled naturally by the sun) than the combined efforts of DC Earth. It seems to me anyway, one super strong character vs. Prime stands a better chance than an assembled host of heroes against him.

He never actually got the Ion power, the power he got was from being in the presence of the greatest hero in comic history.

An entire pack of heroes is more effective against Prime than Ion was. Prime just beat the crap out of him and was in no real danger. I think Superman has benefited big time from the battle distractions against Prime more than the other way around.

How much stronger would you say then if both are balls to the wall.

No prob, I can see how one would believe the opposite as it is open to debate.

Ion managed to deal damage to Prime, and until the lead poisoning, was holding his own against him. Let's face it, Prime's durability is often suspect as Conner Kent is able to damage him. You know how people (including myself, as I've mentioned it before) say that Thanos durability >> his damage output? I'd say the opposite holds true for Prime. Prime has been shown to be hurt pretty often, but he either regens quickly enough or, more likely, he has a low pain threshold while having a high durability if that makes sense. He feels pain a lot more easily, but he's less prone to being KOed or seriously harmed.

If both we're going at it, 110% effort, bloodlusted, Prime is at least twice as strong as him still.

If you mean the horde that was beating on him before Ion came out, he was weakened from lack of sunlight at the time and once the sun came out he easily beat their asses.

I also think He was just enjoying himself while he mopped the floor up with Ion.


You're free to have those opinions, but I just disagree with them. I think with Prime he's just an emotional mess because he's an immature kid but it's hard to say superboy's hv is greater than Black Adam's punches wouldn't you agree?
Ok, from your post earlier I thought you viewed them a lot closer than that.

It could be inconsistent writing, but in Infinite Crisis and SCW alike, lesser heroes were able to make Prime cry out in pain, but at the same token unable to deal lasting damage. It could also be psychological in nature because Prime himself obviously has a fragile psyche.

Batman-Prime
Prime is about 3 time stronger then regular Superman. Though an all out (not mindcontrolled) "save the universe no matter what" Superman should be his equal if not his superior.

At base levels, Prime is stronger.

sans mental blocks/holding back, though, they're about even imo.

Prime is much stronger then Regular Superman. Without holding back whatsoever, Prime is still stronger, but it's a lot closer

Omega Vision
Based on the book lifting feat in Final Crisis I honestly believe Superman's physical strength is a mental contrivance and that he is as strong as he needs to be but at the same time he keeps his strength in check. That would explain how he can cuddle with his wife Lois without crushing her into paste and why as Clark Kent he isn't constantly breaking things.

I think his gradual increase in strength to near-PC levels is a reflection of him getting better at controlling his strength and thus being able to relax his mental blocks (also it helps that he's absorbing more solar power with time).

Anyway I believe that at their base levels Prime isn't really much stronger, he just has less mental restrictions and is much better at using his strength (as shown by him pushing entire planets, something which for the most part Current Superman doesn't do).

Still in a practical sense Prime's strength seems to be 3x greater than Superman's.

xJLxKing
In his recent encounter against a fellow Kryptonian, Superman loses his powers, but his anger is immense. He then replies, "This is when I am most dangerous."

KuRuPT Thanosi
Prime is certainly stronger but when Supes lets go... they are relatively close. Close enough that Supes can hang in a fight with him for a good period of time.

Allankles
He's a fraction stronger than Supes. There isn't a huge difference between the two, it also helps that he uses lethal force.

Q99
Superman in save-the-world mode may find a *way to win*, but he's definitely not near as strong. Plenty of Kryptonian types don't hold back and are willing to use lethal force, and still aren't near the threat of Prime.

Remember, Sodam Yat had Daxamite strength + bolstered by the ring x Ion which is a power multiplier. All in all, I'd expect him to be something like four times stronger than a normal Daxamite/kryptonian.

Allankles
Sodam Yat was poisoned through most of that fight. He was struggling with his own health just as much as with SBP.

Not all Kryptonians are the same. The same way how Humans are not the same.

Also, Superman is a descendant of Rao

Well, Super Man Prime can beat anyone in any level and be invincible, ripping away reality with his fists and becoming an stupid plot device. So its just a little bit stronger than regular Superman.

Q99
Control over super strength is common, and almost all characters have it. Wonder Woman can even spar with nonpowers while keeping her strength in check.

It doesn't mean his strength is a mental contrivance he can set at any level, it just means he can decide how much of the strength he does have he applies.

Yes, but Superman vs other Kryptonians tend to have him a bit stronger at most, if he beats two Kryptonian types it's due almost entirely due to skill, not a significant raw power edge. Superman is not several times above Kryptonians. Superboy is.

I'm not sure where you get the book feat as proof of strength...infinite pages in a magical book does not mean the book has infinite mass..

You're right, it doesn't mean it. But it does heavily imply it. Every story possible=infinite stories=infinite mass in one small space.

JakeTheBank
^ Even if said "infinite pages" didn't translate into "infinite mass", it's still an absurd amount to lift.

He needed another character to lift the book so by all accounts he's just as strong as Marvel which I've always said. If his strength went as high as he needed it to he wouldn't have needed Marvel.


Prime is much stronger than both and has shown a vast strength difference against Superman.

I didn't really care for that to be honest. CM already has a lot of flack as a "Superman clone" and I think he's done enough to be able to stand on his own two feet without being considered to be the "magic version of Supes". Still, it was cool to at least have one version of CM treated with respect and as a peer to Superman.

horrorwolf
roughly 2-3 times than an unamped Superman who is generally holding back.

The point was the concept of the Superman as shown by Captain Allen Adam who despite being even more different than Captain Marvel was still seen as his Universe's Superman.
Superman represented the core of what a superhero is, Captain Marvel represented the lighter, innocent kind of superhero, Ultraman the dark and gritty side of superhero comics, Overman...I'm not sure, I guess he showed that no matter what world he lands on (even a Nazi world) Superman is Superman, Allen Adam of course represented the ultimate concept of the Supraman, the Ubermensch, a being beyond good and evil.

Final Crisis: Superman Beyond. It really helps to read the FC Annotations on the web and some of Morrison's interviews. The more you analyze Final Crisis the less it seems like the work of a crack head and the more it seems like a brilliant literary achievement.

I agree with that much. The first time I read Final Crisis, I was like "WTF is this shit? And why did I pay for it?". But after doing some independent research and re-reading it (lot's of re-reading), I can honestly say I appreciate it a lot more now than I did when it first came out.

Agreed. Does anyone think he was holding back against Prime? Or, say, Doomsday?

We've seen non-holding back Clark on a few occasions. Superboy Prime is stronger than that.

Superboy Prime does stuff fairly casually that is hard for Superman even when not holding back. Let's not forget that in Sinestro Corps War when he was fighting off dozens of heroes including Superman and Powergirl, he wasn't even fully charged by the sun.


Going all-out multiplies Superman's strength by, I'd guess, 1.5x, maybe somewhat more, but not SB Prime level.

I keep asking you for examples yet you keep avoiding them. Why don't you give me some examples. We've seen direct comparisons of these two on panel already posted and Prime easily overcome Superman and others trying to restrain him the moment the sun arose and his strength returned.

I guess you view Marvel, Prime, and Superman all in the same strength department. Your logic is always so far off touch and so ridiculous I don't know why you continue on with some of the theories you continue to back, but hey it's who you are.

It might be hilarious only if you think Thor w/ Mjolnir swing could never cause planet-wide reverberations. If that's your position, then so be it.

At one point didnt Superman admit he had no chance of beating him, and that reasoning with him was his only chance? As for the Ion fight, SBP did treat it was a joke. He was eating those nuclear rods and goofing around carving taunts into headstones rather than fighting.

Superman has easily broken free of multiple heroes as well. So has Black Adam. Yeah, if they're not holding back. Had you any sense of self-respect and logic, you might be able to formulate a legitimate argument to bolster your own position. As it stands, you're simply spewing spiteful non-statements.

Ps. Least I read the comics I post about.

Just sayin. That isn't my only reasoning that's just one example. Superman was also one of those beings desperately trying to keep a weakened Prime down and the moment the sun came up he easily broke free.

The Thor statement has nothing to do with if he can destroy a planet or not. I for think he can, but the problem I have is you failed to point out for that feat he had the belt of strength on. You studied a character enough to put long hours in for a respect thread yet you missed something so many others easily picked up on.


You also criticized me because I hadn't read the ff arc with Abraxas more than once and yet yourself misremember things you even study. Just pointing out the irony of it all.

You made the claim when he stops holding back he's much closer and have failed at every turn to make an argument. I'll ask again since you made the claim what showings do you base this off of?


Ps. I always back up my claims and give my reasoning while you insult and pout when someone calls you out on it.

We've seen Prime face off against Superman one on one and it's been utter domination for Prime.

I asked for a simple scan in which stated it was the multiverse. It didn't state it was the multiverse at the end of the arc and I wasn't going to reread a story 6 months later just for that debate. I asked you for proof and when you posted it I said it makes more sense that it was the multiverse. Like I said everyone forgets things and I was honest it's been some time and only asked for proof. You went off on a rant like you always do and attacked me personally. You then missed something obvious about a character you studied enough to do a respect thread covering making your statement ironic.

I never denied other heroes have thrown off other heroes. I suggest you reread it because Black Adam didn't throw off Superman like Prime did so making a claim that his showings are equal to Prime's is laughable to say the least. That's your problem you see another hero in the same league as Prime not mine. So reread it ok because Superman didn't oppose Adam. K.

I read the issues. I hadn't read them recently while you seem clueless about Thor feats which was a character you studied. That's funny.

Are you going to make an argument as to why you think Superman's closer to Prime yet?

I think it's rather obvious Prime exceeds Superman in every way, shape, and form by his showings but I guess some people view it differently despite the lack of evidence.

I'm in no way arguing Superman=Prime, I'm not stupid or delusional in spite of your opinion. What I'm arguing is that the gulf of power between them isn't nearly as wide as you think it is.

My point is someone like Black Adam hitting Superman he's going to feel it while it tickles Prime.

a) that's why i said Superman, not Superboy Prime.

b) Not to you. Plus, you obviously don't know as much about Superman as you seem to claim you do if you'd so readily dismiss him.

Blasts from Mordru? Superman has tanked the OB. Superman could pierce his hand if he wanted to. Kryptonian heat vision regularly pierces the skin of other Kryptonians. There's more than enough evidence of that.

Prime's consistency ISN'T that impressive. People say he took on an army of superheroes. So did Superman. Almost every time he fights Conner Kent, he has trouble. So now Conner is Superman level? He pretty much pissed himself when Supergirl and Powergirl threatened to castrate him.

People love to bring up that Prime is a silver age kryptonian. You know who else is a silver age kryptonian? Earth 2 Superman, and his feats piss all over Prime's. Yet what happened when Superman fought him? He held his own.

Yes, Prime is stronger than Superman, but to say that Superman couldn't match him, with the feats he has ON PANEL, is lunacy, imo.

B)I don't have to read every Superman appearance out there when I've seen how these two characters interact and how they are shown. I also see how they interact against similar opposition and Prime seems to be well above him in every way.

Superman got blasted by Mordru and he needed aid against Mordru in the same arc by the same writer who had Prime laugh off Mordru blasts so it's a direct comparison by the same writer in the same story. Prime laughs off things that hurt Superman.

What's inconsistent about Prime? He's smacked Superboy around before, killed his teammates by mistake, and gotten Superboy killed while Prime barely noticed it. He's not going to easily kick superboy's ass the moment he reemerges in comics. you put up a thread between the two and Prime dominates Superboy all day. In a story created by dc they won't have Prime just squat away a character who just returned as they would be kinda pointless as

a)he just returned.
b)they have a special connection.

Prime was a threat both your silver age Superman and ne Superman took on. They depowered them all to win. That to me doesn't reek of silver age Superman as greater than Prime. it was all heroes vs. Prime at the end because he was the threat and has displayed as being more powerful with all of these characters in the same story.


Also, Superman needed an army of robots to battle multiple dc heroes. He didn't do so on his own unlike Prime.


Superman didn't hold his own against Prime. you say he can when the exact opposite is shown is lunacy. Abc logic falls short when we have these characters both going at it on panel.

SBP is stronger but there's no way he's even close to 2x times stronger. If he were 2 times stronger - or anywhere close - he wouldn't have been brawling with Supes in IC and getting dropped, or having a real tussle in LO3W.

Yes. Black Adam bowled through heroes just like Superman Prime did. Inverse ninja law. Focusing on Superman's absence in one situation, while detracting from Superman in another instance would be hypocritical if it weren't coming from you. As it is coming from you, it's simply par for the course. Superman is a saint of restraint. And amongst his peers, he is the most likely to go easy on Superman Prime.

Are you closer to reading comics that you comment on? Giving that feat credit as a feat done without his belt of strength is a spin. How's it feel to admit being wrong to me. It feels awesome for me.

We've seen Superman not hold back before and he failed to kill WW so what's your point? We've seen Prime easily toss him aside, rip open the Monarch's armor which is by far his greatest strength feat considering how an army of top tiers couldn't do more than dent the armor. I guess you overrate Superman like most. Funny. You're excuses and logic pretty much cover every bad guy and hero here. I guess heroes get a free pass and can always rely on the holding back excuse. LOL.


Could Superman rip open Monarch's armor if he wanted to?

That's just one flaw that stood out. I am sure there are more but from someone who tells others to reread arcs because I didn't have the entire thing committed to memory you made a pretty big error. I didn't study the abraxas arc either yet you studied Thor.

BA received a lot more damage than Prime. Prime also was weakened when he took on most of the heroes and easily tossed them aside when his full power returned while BA had a melted face and was soon going to be overwhelmed. Characters also saw him as a former ally and don't hold him in the same regard as Prime. You know cause he's a villain and all. I guess you use double standards as well.

We've seen Superman go all out and it's nowhere near Prime level. I guess every showing of Superman is him holding back, eh? Typical response from one such as you while avoiding the reasons you put him closer to Prime you avoid the feats themselves and the reasoning.

Again, the word multiverse wasn't stated after the un recreated at the end of the arc. So it's still speculation either way as it doesn't outright state it. You had scans though and only posted them when I pushed you so that's laziness on your part.

Great job at avoiding the reasons why Superman is closer to Prime. You've become an expert at insult and dodge tactic you keep sporting.

And if you're really getting off on this, then I honestly feel very, very sorry for you.

Wonderwoman has nothing to do with this. We're not comparing Guardian-amped Superman Prime with Superman. Had Superman had a fading portion of Guardian-ampage left and bumrushed Monarch, I'd imagine he'd do the same thing. Try and keep on topic. Originally posted by quanchi112

I'm not surprised that you're unaware of Superman's restraint and/or his sympathy for Superman Prime. We've seen plenty of times where teams get busted up as badly as Superman Prime has busted teams. Well, at least we who read comics have. I won't presume that you have.

You sir, are an idiot. I am not the bad guy for asking you to read a comic that you owned. If you didn't have the comic, that's one thing. But you did have the comic. Why should I scan a comic that you own on a topic we're arguing over? That makes no sense. But you went further than that, because after refusing to reread it, you started acting like an idiot as if you cornered me. Then you got scan-spanked. Badly. And then you went even further and started acting like it was my fault the whole time because I didn't immediately scan it for you. You could have avoided the whole situation by just reading the damn comic that you owned. And now I see you even taking it further and trolling me in a wholly different thread over the mess you created. It wasn't my fault you stuck your foot in your mouth. Again. And again. And again. And it's not my fault this time around either. You really need to get over it.

I did read the comics not all of them but who really can make a case they read every Superman appearance out there. Like I said he had aid when he took on Batman and the other heroes when he went a little crazy there due to dominus. You know I hate Superman but I give him his due and it's well beneath Prime.

It was a mistake. I've made mistakes before. Whether you pointed this out, or somebody else did makes no difference to me. I want feedback on the Respect Thread to make it better. It's now evident to me that you only pointed it out to me to be spiteful, instead of constructive. And if you're really getting off on this, then I honestly feel very, very sorry for you.

Wonderwoman has nothing to do with this. We're not comparing Guardian-amped Superman Prime with Superman. Had Superman had a fading portion of Guardian-ampage left and bumrushed Monarch, I'd imagine he'd do the same thing. Try and keep on topic. I read Thor comics. Decided to scan his feats and put them in order. I don't write dissertations on him. Refusing to reread a comic that you owned after it's pointed out to you that you're wrong and trolling me for missing a detail that I acknowledged immediately is hypocritical at best. At worst, it's a very pathetic attempt to use the latter to spite me for subjecting you to the former. I'm not surprised that you're unaware of Superman's restraint and/or his sympathy for Superman Prime. We've seen plenty of times where teams get busted up as badly as Superman Prime has busted teams. Well, at least we who read comics have. I won't presume that you have.

You sir, are an idiot. I am not the bad guy for asking you to read a comic that you owned. If you didn't have the comic, that's one thing. But you did have the comic. Why should I scan a comic that you own on a topic we're arguing over? That makes no sense. But you went further than that, because after refusing to reread it, you started acting like an idiot as if you cornered me. Then you got scan-spanked. Badly. And then you went even further and started acting like it was my fault the whole time because I didn't immediately scan it for you. You could have avoided the whole situation by just reading the damn comic that you owned. And now I see you even taking it further and trolling me in a wholly different thread over the mess you created. It wasn't my fault you stuck your foot in your mouth. Again. And again. And again. And it's not my fault this time around either. You really need to get over it.

Great job using Guardian-amped Prime as a basis for your attempted rebuttals. Smart work. thumb up I am not getting off on it it's just ironic because I let you pass and you went off on a rant because I couldn't remember every detail about an arc I read months ago. That's the only reason I brought it up.

The amp was gone when he tore it off hence Moanrch's comments about his muscles shrinking. The amp wore off and it was a Prime feat without the amp.

I didn't troll I asked for evidence because i wasn't reread the entire arc for you or anyone else for that matter. I went to the end and it didn't mention multiverse so I asked for proof. End of story.

Prime was also weakened and the moment he wasn't he easily tossed them aside like bums. I am aware of his restraint but that doesn't excuse his planet carrying feat he needed aid with. No one is going to get hurt if he uses all his strength and even suggesting he would hold back in that sort of scenario is complete crap. I apply common sense to much of my debating while feats such as this aren't feats where he held back. It defies common sense now I do acknowledge that Superman would hold back when hitting someone, but I don't see his strength feats or who he's beaten down as definitive proof he could even give Prime an actual fight if they both went at it. I see it as more or less the same as an Ion fight. it would take time but Prime would mop the floor with him.

It wasn't guardian amped Prime at the end of the arc. if you read it you'd know the amp wore off at the point of the feat. Reread countdown if you think that was an amped Prime who performed the feat.


Again, insults aside I guess you won't prove your case.

of course it is.

plus, it's not the only time superman has taken on groups. heroes, villains, superman is a proven team buster with plenty of showings.

Very true statement. Superman has proven to be a team buster, dont see any reasons of denying this quan.

As for the topic at hand, I honestly think Prime is at least 3 times as strong as Supes, could be more and I'm basing this off of what the writers themselves stated about prime strength.

it's canon. it's had canon arcs that were integral to dc, such as supergirl's return, the solomon grundy blackest night stuff etc.

Majority of the story isnt cannon and as for that part of the story, thats NOT cannon (which you are correct, it was stated in an interview) but Supes still have showings of him being a team buster. He might not have the type of showing that prime has or fought the type of teams that prime fought but he is still a group killer (if he wants to be). I just cant see him doing it close to the fashion Prime can.

I never said he wasn't a team buster I referred to him needing aid against the heroes in the dominus arc. Taking on teams also doesn't focus solely on strength but combat effectiveness. My point was Prime did so while weakened and when his full power was restored he easily brushed them off.

I think the reason why Superman/Batman gets questioned regarding it's state in canon is because its pretty non-linear at times. It often tells flashbacks as much as it will tell a story about a recent arc/event. Most (if not all) of it is canon, though.

when did they state it? So certain arcs are or the whole thing. It seems to be sloppy when we discuss superman/batman and I don't have access to the interview in question.

It was stated before the IC book even came out, before prime 1st appearance. I posted the scan a couple a months back. They even stated that Prime is comparable in strength to pre-crisis Superman and that the guy could turn a moon to dust just by head butting it.

most if not all of it. there's been too much referenced in other books for it to be non canon.

I agree with this and its pretty obvious that Prime is leagues above Superman physically because Superman brought an entire army to stop Prime during IC and then they didnt even do that in a fair way, they had to ramb him through a red sun.

Physically, there shouldnt even be a comparison between the two and thats pretty obvious if you ask me.

and that's the thing. Superman is comparable to pre crisis superman in strength too, as evident by their fights.

It's plain for me to see that since Superman was first brought back after COIE, he's much closer to PC levels than he has been earlier on. It's been a gradual progression, and honestly, it makes sense if he technically gets more powerful everyday due to sunlight exposure.

I disagree with this but to each his own. Prime ran through everyone and then, lets not even add to the fact that a group of heros (including Superman) was fighting a weakened prime but was unable to stop him and as soon as a dot of sunlight hit him, he through every hero (including Superman) off of him like they were nothing.

Now answer this, if Superman was just as strong as prime, during the Ion saga, why didnt they just throw Superman at prime, why did they have to rely on ion to stop Prime?

Why didnt Superman aid Ion when Ion was getting that a** whipped?

Again, its obvious.

The amp was gone when he tore it off hence Moanrch's comments about his muscles shrinking. The amp wore off and it was a Prime feat without the amp.And I quote: "It feels awesome for me." Keep your indulgent self-stroking to yourself next time and I wouldn't ridicule you over it. You let me "pass?" Are you some sort of referee? I didn't go on a rant about Abraxas. I asked you to read it and was flabbergasted when you (i) not only refused to, but (ii) actually kept demanding I scan it for you, (iii) and when I refused that, started acting like you won the debate. It was utterly preposterous. Why didn't you just reread the comic that you owned?

It was wearing off and Monarch commented that it was nearly drained. So he was still amped when he was fighting him. Originally posted by quanchi112

Black Adam was weakened also and continued to throw off people aside like bums. DOS Doomsday did it too while Superman was there with all the heroes. And guess who singlehandedly ended that fight? Superman. Superman being thrown around along with other heroes isn't proof positive that he can't handle someone on his own. And Superman getting an assist with planet-moving suggests that there is a possibility he couldn't do it on his own, but it is not absolutely dispositive of his ability to do it on his own. You have to recognize how detrimental lead poisoning is to Daxamites, even Ion. Originally posted by quanchi112

Again, insults aside I guess you won't prove your case. And if you would recognize that the entire time he was fighting him with a fading Guardian-amp and only at the end did it fade, should provide you enough context. Take Monarch after he goes toe-to-toe with Guardian-amped Superman-Prime for an entire issue and then switch out Prime for Superman to bumrush and tear his suit off? Yeah, I see Superman doing it.

Insults aside, you still don't read comics. Reread Word War III for starters since you're so enamoured of a villain throwing off multiple heroes.

The fact that his power levels as of now >>>> back when Byrne first re-introduced the mythos Post Crisis. Even PC Superman was shown at times to fall victim to a single rock of Kryptonite. Now, Superman can fly through a red sun and gods know much Kryptonite and still function enough to beat down someone who's depowered but isn't suffering the same poisoning effect he himself is.

Is he = to PC Superman as of now? No.

But he's much closer than people might think.

I agree, when it comes to resistance, Superman is>>>>>>>PC Superman. Anyone with any type of magic/K-nite could down PC Supserman and with ease but strength, durability, power, Superman isnt even CLOSE to his PC levels.

I dont even think Prime is close to a PC Superman (even though he's strong as hell).
