Who is more durable, DCNU Superman or Surfer?

Please provide your reasoning to your post.

This includes durability (piercing attacks and physical shown damage) and damage soak.

riv6672
Superman.
Because: he's Superman.
His durability is pretty much off the charts.
More than any other power its what makes him Super IMO; he can withstand attacks other characters, who may be comparably strong and fast, just cant.

carver9
Any others.

golem370
Superman because he is DC franchise

Sufer wins a fight, but Superman is more durable than him.


SS is the most versital hh in his class.
In a fight 7/3 to SS

You people are CRAZY. Surfer is far more durable. Do you understand the forces he not only withstands, but wades through in the rigors of space? He ****ing lives there, eat, breaths, sleeps and shits.....oh wait, he's so ****ing durable he doesn't need to do any of that stuff! Surfer, easily.

Unless that's a dream sequence, there is no context that can explain Superman being bloodied by Batman.

carver9
There wasn't any context to that showing.

DarkSaint85
Lol now BAV is in a quandary.

Does this mean Batman is that powerful, or is Superman that weak???

Assuming carver is telling him the truth, of course.

I know it still doesn't explain how he got a bloody lip from a single punch, but I just thought that you should know the context behind it.

Either way, no selling a punch from she hulk several decades ago vs getting a bloody lip from an amped batman at night isn't how we should go about determining how durable these two are. We should take their highest and lowest end showings to see who has a better track record. Personally, I think that surfer's energy resistance is above superman's and superman's physical resistance is above surfer's.

So do Green Lanterns.

They must be more durable than Superman too, right?

Disagree with physical resistance. What are you basing this off of?

Surtur
Okay well "survives the rigors of space" can mean a lot of things. The various types of radiations and stuff you are exposed to in space both Superman and Surfer can easily withstand. They both have flown for long periods in space before.

Surfer is also tough enough to fight inside a black hole though, and in the cores of stars and all that. Both are tough, but Surfer's body seems much harder to damage overall.

Superman was able to go through multiple black holes while weakened. One black hole was much larger than Earth itself.

Surfer has a poor record against black holes.

Doomsday physically damaged him though.

Zod broke his arm.

Did you see any of those fights? Doomsday damaged him, Zod broke his arm and I'm trying to figure out which Darkseid fight he is talking about.

OP said it includes damage soak.

So even if they were hurt, Clark kept on ticking.

I've seen the fights.
I know we disagree on this point, but to me Superman's durability doesnt mean he wont get hurt. It means he'll get hurt where others would get ripped apart.

DarkSaint85
Moreover, even if he DOES get hurt....Superman kinda also has that whole 'I must protect them, no matter what!' mindset going on.

Surfer has it too, of course, being a hero, but he's not placed in as many situations as Superman.

So you can picture Zod breaking Surfer arm? What are you basing this off of?

DarkSaint85
Panther arm barring Surfer.

Imagine if a Low Meta tier guy did that to Surfer.

If ANYBODY argues it is a low showing for Surfer - on what are THEY basing it on? What other showings of Surfer's arms/ligaments etc do they have?

If you keep this up, I'm going to have to save your quotes for the next time that someone says panther didn't really beat him.

DarkSaint85
My quotes are the best!

But its a valid point....for it to be PIS, we must have showings of his toughness to balance it out, no?

For example, DeathstroKe stabbing Flash is PIS...because we've seen so many examples of Flash and his uber reactions.

Don't think Dark read the Comic tbh. Surfer allowed Panther to do that to get info from him and it's not like Surfer got damaged (points to the Batman punching blood from the lip).

His record against black holes is actually pretty good.

E.g., he went through a black hole filled with anti-matter unscathed; used a black hole to travel to another side of the universe; while weakened he fought Red Shift at the heart of a singularity and was unscathed; and went through a solar-system sized black hole twice, and was unscathed; he accidentally smashed into a singularity he didn't notice while space traveling and was only knocked out, etc.

Surtur
But doesn't Storm f*ck him up in the same comic?(The black panther one)

Nah she tried stalling him by trapping him in a ball of lightning. He flew out of it a page later saying something about how it's folly to "impede one who's flown through the heart of suns."

Solar system size black hole? When?

And still with the Epic stuff? What's next? Punisher Max is canon?

Marvel vs Capcom is canon because it was mentioned in a bio?

It was during the Elders saga when they collected the infinity gems. Nova caused the the Supernova which created a black hole that swallowed/destroyed the solar system the Elders had setup. A dozen comics later, Surfer travels into that very same black hole twice.

Only the Surfer comic in Epic is canon, because it was referenced in the official FF4 handbook as Surfer's first chronological appearance.

You mean the same one which nearly crushed him and Nova, koed him another time and he needed Lord Order and Master Chaos to Traverse it again? That one? That black hole didn't destroy the solar system.

And it is contradicted everywhere else as FF 48 is the first chronological comic for both surfer and Galactus.

You would have more luck arguing Marvel vs Capcom is canon than that.

It never "nearly crushed" them. Nova stated it may have because she's naive as a new herald. Later on Galactus sends Surfer on a mission into that black hole, and Nova questions whether he could survive. Surfer said Galactus probably created them to be durable enough to enter it.

It did destroy a solar system. Those yellow spheres being sucked in are planets and the Elders said "everything" was breaking apart.

My evidence for the Epic SS story being canon is that it was referenced in the official FF4 handbook.

Nice fanfiction.




Haha, what? Nova was a Herald for years at that point.

When he gets koed again, he thought better and asked Lord Order and Master Chaos help to enter it.

He is flat out koed as soon as he enters the black hole and thrown into another universe.

That's not helping your argument.



Haha, what? The planets were not in any danger of getting sucked in.

And those glowing objects are the gems which are shown in the previous panel as well.

In fact the black hole was just there, as were the planets after the comic.

That it's from a different Imprint? Just because it gets mentioned in a meaningless handbook once doesn't makes it canon.

Yeah, compared to Surfer who has been Galactus' herald for centuries... a few years still makes her a noob herald.


Surfer looks perfectly conscious here after passing through the black hole.

Lol, you're not serious are you? Those yellow spheres were planets and in the next page Galactus drains two of them to regain his strength. The rest as you can see on-panel fell into the black hole.

Funny thing, Surfer never said "Hold on, I've gone through a black hole before. In that Imprint? Epic one."

But it's funny to see your logic, "Well she is a noob, what does she knows"?

Nice try.




Yeah, where he wakes up in another universe and asks where they are.

You know, as people do after getting knocked out and waking up in a different place?

Hahaha, what? Those are the gems. The elder even says that "The gems are lost" as they fall into the black hole.

You know, the gems which were interconnected?

Galactus and Inbetweeneer fight on several planets in the vicinity of the universe same black hole just a few issues later.
Except it being from a non canon imprint.

Superman and Martian Manhunter appeared in Vertigo titles.

As did Constantine. As did Swamp Thing. As did Zatanna.

And yet, Vertigo isn't canon to DC. It's a different imprint.

Surfer has gone through multiple writers throughout his 50 year career. You can't expect writers to remember every detail of his history.

But yeah, Surfer was a herald for centuries and Nova a herald for a few years. She is definitely naive.


So every time Surfer is momentarily pulled or knocked off his board it's a KO, Even though a panel later he's perfectly fine? I don't think so.


No, the gems were not giant yellow spheres that dwarfed Galactus.

Those were planets surrounding a sun in a solar system the Elders setup. The gems were interconnected on the Elder's tiny platform above the solar system.
http://s23.postimg.org/w7cv559cr/Silver_Surfer_1988_009_14.jpg



Those were background planets, and weren't the original six planets the Elders used in their plot against Galactus:
http://s23.postimg.org/w7cv559cr/Silver_Surfer_1988_009_14.jpg


Epic is a collection of independent stories.

The SS story is canon because it's stated to be canon in the official FF4 hand book. I'm still waiting for your evidence that it's non-canon.

Funny thing, no writer ever remembered it.

That in itself doesn't negates her statement.

And surfer confirming it.

When he asks after looking limp and koed as to where he is? Yes, he is KOED. He didn't travel anywhere, he was thrown into another universe.

Artistic license.

Learn about it.

The planets were destroyed in the supernova.

The elder flat out says that those are the gems which are falling in the black hole.

Just like Vertigo.

So, is Vertigo canon to DC?

Because you're taking a bio as a proof of canonical status, what about Marvel vs Capcom being mentioned in Shuma Gorath's official bio?

Or Thor being 95 tones only in bio?

Because bios are always so reliable? Right?

What negates her statement is Surfer actually traveling through the black hole and not getting killed like she assumed.


Happens all the time. Surfer gets knocked off his board with a limp look and looks fine the next panel. Doesn't mean he's knocked out.


Or maybe you're just wrong.

The gems were even shown on-panel at the top of the page still on the Elder's platform, while at the same time the planets (giant yellow spheres) fell into the black hole at bottom of the page

The planets were shown intact during the supernova and shown falling into the black hole afterwards.

http://postimg.org/image/xs8pc8t2b/

Galactus even feeds on two of the planets--which clearly dwarf him in size--to regain his strength before they fell into the black hole.

http://postimg.org/image/5gn5f795v/

^ So you're saying Galactus fed on the infinity gems? Which dwarfed him in size? Which has trees growing on them in the close-up? Lol


Handbooks are used as supporting evidence to help determine which comics are canon and which aren't.

So far I have an official handbook stating specifically that the Surfer story in Epic is canon, and you have nothing other than your own opinion.

http://www.turboimagehost.com/p/15417326/SS_v3_010_03a_zps6798bc21.jpg.html

"He did save us". And he didn't travel through the black hole. He was immediately koed and thrown into a different universe.



Here he is. Lulz @ saying otherwise.

That doesn't happens.

The next scene you're posting is the gems falling into the black hole.

Not the planets.

Those are the gems with the elders even saying so.

This is getting lulzworthy.

And here you're saying they were falling into the black hole when they are in the exact same position as on the next page.

Nevermind the fact that Surfer flat out saying that the black hole will be a fitting end to his life.



And which were not falling into the black hole?

Supporting evidence. First evidence must come from a in continuity comic.

Go ahead and post a comic scan which supports your position.

And it being a different imprint. But continue parroting.

Mxy pulled out entire DC universe out of his hat.

Vyndktvx was merging every timeline into one and was about to destroy creation when Superman stopped him.

He also put Mxy in coma.

Do you have a scan of him merging time lines and destroying creation?

Wasn'tSuperman weakened in that scan as well? I read somewhere he was hit by Kryptonite from every universe or something ghey like that.

Are you kidding me? You lie about scans you post all the time! You looked right in everyone's face and said Superman was unharmed by Suneater and everyone else was based on one character saying the were cold afterwards. In the same pic, Superman was on his knees and the letters in his word bubble were small and squiggly. And of course you lied about the entire scenario having claimed Suneater drained Superman when in fact he and the other hero's discharged their own energies willingly to draw him out. YES, you are more than willimg to lie about scans. You also lie linking story arcs together and occurrances from different time frames.

So, all in all.

Abhi was wrong about the copter. Bare faced liar.

But if the Hulk throws a chopper at me, vs one thrown by Spidey....i know which one I'd rather be hit by.

Assuming I HAVE to get hit, lol.

But apart from that,it was a multiversal chopper, PLUS Superman had been weakened, by Kryptonite, no?

So, multiversal.

Point still stands though. Having a medal thrown at you by Blue Marvel would hurt a hell of a lot more than if it was thrown by Spiderman.

Not if you are Superman, supposedly. And it's not like the Copter got vaporized, so let's slow down on being able to tell how hard is was thrown.

By they way, per your example, it depends to an extent how hard BM WANTED to throw it. He actually threw his medal to the moon, but didn't crack it because he didn't thrown it hard enough to do that.

Did anyone here read Morisson's Action Comic? Or do some of you just look at scans and claims to have read it?

Morisson's made it clear that Kal was being attacked on all timeline at the same time, while having Kryptonite chains wrap around him.

One of Mxy casual trick was to pull a Universe from his hat as a trick, and Van put his ass in a coma.

Vyn did attack Superman at various points in his timeline...indirectly...via proxies and schemed events (e.g., henchmen he hired in various timelines to attack Superman, set up the Kent's car accidents, setting up the corporation that would create Superdoom, setting up Luthor's rise, etc.) Vyn never actually attacked Superman directly himself, for anyone who read Action Comics 13 to 18.

Vyn also stole a bunch of powerful 5D artifacts in preparation against Mxy.

If you can't even comprehend that simple helicopter scene, why should anyone expect you to comprehend Morrison's complex plot with Vyndktvx that spans multiple issues and Superman timelines. It doesn't change the fact that Vyn never attacked Superman directly himself. He attacked Superman by simultaneously orchestrating various events in Superman's past, present, and future. All of the "attacking" was done by his proxies or villains he hired or took control of (e.g., Anti-Superman Army and Superdoom).

Either way, no selling a punch from she hulk several decades ago vs getting a bloody lip from an amped batman at night isn't how we should go about determining how durable these two are. We should take their highest and lowest end showings to see who has a better track record. Personally, I think that surfer's energy resistance is above superman's and superman's physical resistance is above surfer's.

I don't at all, I think that Superman is the most popular character with the most appearance in a comic universe that clearly favors him as having the best attributes relative to others and therefore goes out of their way to show such. Different approach is all. Now think about the last time Surfer was show to have PHYSICAL damage. Despite so called feats, Superman has been bloodied and pummeled much more than Surfer had. Look at Surfer's fight with BR Bill, Bill was broken and bloodied and Surfer was fine. This is the same Bill that took it to Stardust in one of the greatest comic book fights ever depicted IMO. Superman's blood was draw by a quick bow from Hercules, right? And Surfer, who draws energy from the cosmos itself, is more easily able to make a full recovery.

Dude, you all aren't even clearly defining YOUR interpretation of what's happening, yet you want to jump down Carver's throat. Again, based on the comic, WHAT EXACTLY is happening? Is there a better explanation in previous pages?

My take is pretty similar to O-P and not Abby's squinty-eyed interpretation. He's making it out to be something it's not, as if it was a helicopter thrown from every time line at once, which would of could be infinite mass. If that was the case, then Superman's explanation that his cape saved him wouldn't make a bit of sense. So his cape >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> his own durability?
