Current Superman replaces the Silver Surfer and goes through the Annihilation storyline and faces all of the challenges that Surfer did...

At what point in the story does Current Superman fall, or does he clear the storyline?

carver9
He falls in the first battle against Tenebrous and Aegis. Gets decimated.

riv6672
Agreed. Superman gets stomped easily here.

Supermex
Yea i agree


Just that his power-set is not right for that story

Superman pushes them into the crunch while they are distracted and doesn't needs to get revived by Galactus.

In other words, clears.

Your claim, i'd assume.

Didn't Surfer have to actually somehow wield the energies of the crunch, not just push them into it? Superman can't really do that, so he stops st T&A.

The rest of it though, he should be able to pull off without a ton of difficulty.

Doesn't have the power set.

^^^simple as that.

You're right he will be better at losing to Tenebrous and Aegis.

This doesn't seem fair. How's Superman supposed to replicate Thanos's power so as to release Galactus in Annihilation #5.

Anyway, the only battle feat of Surfer's(from Annihilation) that Superman couldn't replicate is manipulation of the Crunch-energies.

He would do worst than Surfer.

Also, Surfer had to create a black hole during annihilation. Superman ain't clearing this or coming close to it

^ He did not *have* to create a black hole. That was a side-effect of the energy he released against Ravenous. If you don't think Superman can beat Ravenous, then we'll just stop here. smile

No, he channeled it through his body and essentially created a tsunami.

Creating a tsunami is well within his capabilities.

He will "probably" beat Ravenous but it will not be close to the way Surfer did it.

abhilegend
Probably? He would beat the shit out of Ravenous after killing the currs. Even Xenith beat the shit out of him in that state.

Heck, even with currs a weakened Firelord fought him to double KO.

Galan007
Obviously Superman wouldn't win the same way Surfer did, lol. He'd just beat the christ out of Ravenous via fisticuffs+HV. thumb up

You do know Zod's a Kryptonian too right?

Surfer actually created the black hole after the fight with Ravenous, he made it inside of Air-Walker's body to keep Annihilus's forces from getting his portion of the Power Cosmic.

The black hole was created to honor air walked/remove any trace of his corpse.

It didn't add anything to the annihilation storyline's forward momentum.

That said, it's not something that Superman can do, I think.

Superman doesn't need power cosmic. He's just gonna punch the bees wax out of everyone and or cut them in half.

But wasn't the whole manipulation of those energies the entire reason Surfer was able to survive against those cosmics? So isn't it a pretty big problem if Superman can't do it?

Does current Superman carry around a sword or something? Also wait who exactly are you referring to when you say he cuts them in half. Surely..surely not Tenebrous and Aegis?

Also the first fight against Tenebrous and Aegis (where Surfer and Galactus get captured) wasn't even near the crunch so Superman wouldn't have access to it or whatnot.

But yeah Tenebrous and Aegis are not an obstacle Superman can pass.

Ah,a scan of surfer creating a singularity in someone's body,I knew that was there somewhere
