So before I'm hearing he is the God of Strength, now he is apparently depowered. What the hell are they doing to this character?

I think the Darkseid War is taking place before he was depowered.

Namor might end it, if not Hercules runs a train on him.

He isn't touching Spiderman. Spiderman drops him in my opinion.

Superman was amped and Frank was mind controlled.

I know that cap has a track record of pulling crazy wins out of his ass. I also know that cage is gonna take Clark's lunch money, bang both of his ex girlfriends at the same time, have his dad beat up Clark's dad, and then call Clark a b*tch. I kind of felt like playing devil's advocate? Is that a solid enough reason? On a more serious note, I can give you some actual reasons if you want. reported for not only not being funny but also for not being the least bit clever.

Carver also fails to mention that Frank was amped by the same Black Mass, and Superman was ALSO mind-controlled by the same Black MAss (mind-controlled in the sense that he was not fully in control of himself).

But, you know, lies.

That power grown on Supes by then. He was using it in ways no one during that arc were using it. Blending in the shadows, traveling with it (literally jumping into his own shadow) and amping. Frank was in a rage the entire time. That's it. Supes had a huge advantage.

On a serious note though, I'd like to know just how strong depowered superman is.

StiltmanFTW
I think that's what we'd all like to know.

Steve would beat a fully powered Supes, btw. Punch of Freedom, Jab of Justice.

So would Cage. His blackness would simply absorb Superman's solar energy.

Time-Immemorial
De powered Superman could possibly be stronger then Hercules and Thanos.

Philosophía
I'm curious to hear opinions.

I, for one, would say he stops at Namor.

doubt it. No rest or replenished health means that between cap's skill and cage's durability and strength, he goes down quick. He's back to full health between fights.

You just didn't properly specify how the gauntlet works. Create another thread where he gets full rest between the fights and then we can talk. big grin

Right, clearly Superman doesn't have a history of toppling foes outside of his range.

1). We don't know how powerfull current Vandal Savage is
2). Superman was already half dead by the time he confronted him

Cap could beat him simply because he's Cap.

Taking Cap's "aura" out of the equation, though, he stops around Cage/Spider-Man and NO WAY does he beat Namor.

Originally posted by 80sBaby
NO WAY does he beat Namor. He's already beaten Black Manta, who has given Aquaman fits. He's also grappled with Arthur and shrugged off his hits . Why do you act like Namor stomps him?

80sBaby
The fact that he was almost killed by armor-piercing bullets.

His highs might put him at Namor's average showings but Namor still has higher feats over all so I give him the definite nod.

There's no such thing as "highs" when the dude's been appearing only for 6 months.
In this meantime, he's beaten Black Manta, done well against Aquaman, tanked attacks from a clone having 80% of his full power and then numbed him, beaten Killer Croc, beaten Livewire and tanked her attacks, beaten Atomic Skull and beaten Parasite.

That's a rather good average.

80sBaby
I read the actual comic but thanks for the condescension.

And, as I recall, they weren't created with any type of weakness exploitation. They were described as high, velocity armor-piercing rounds. I don't recall them as being "Superman specific" or anything. I'm not at home but if you have the scans to show otherwise, that'd be appreciated.

And yes, there are "highs" as well as "lows" considering the number of appearances he's had in those 6 months. I don't consider either Atomic Skull nor Parasite to be on Namor's level. And, I didn't say his average was "low" but it's lower than Namor's. I'd place him a little below Thing-level.

@ Phil.

I can't respond to your PM due to the wacky character in your username, but yes, that definitely puts Darkseid's power into perspective... Especially given that the CB was stated to possess infinite power on the very same page:
http://i.imgur.com/0YqVKuJ.jpg
ie. Darkseid's power~CB=infinite.

Heck, Darkseid's power could very well have been greater than the CB's... It was just the closest match in the universe that Mother Box could find.


It's also worth noting that the Omega power Lex inherited from Darkseid was stated to be infinite as well:

It's still the same thing actually.

True, new 52 haven't struggle as much, but even when fully powered he still fought far beyond his power set.

Morrison's ending on Action Comics. Kal was fighting while he was weakened with Kryptonite being the best ex.

Vandal would destroy Cap. He was fighting Pandora (who has hundreds of years experience in combat/Martial Arts) and was getting pierced by swords and whatnot. His healing is more impressive and he's immortal.

I'm at work also, but it says that's they're specially made, of a strange caliber. It's on the page where Wonder Woman is treating him, after the fight.

I'd also put him at Thing level and say he stops at Namor, so we're not on different pages, there. I don't think Namor is that far off either Thing or him, though, which is where we differ.

As for the rest, thumb up.

That just solidified Darkseid's power as being ridiculous in the New52 incarnation for me.

Glad to see the New Gods getting respect.

Spidey speed, webbing, and Pre cog make things extremely difficult for him.

Based on what? I need to know what showings of this Superman is making people say this, especially against Spiderman who is magnitudes more faster than him with webbing and the strength to knock him out.
