Prime threads are pointless. No one knows anything about him, other than that he's a lot better than normal Superman.

This is all you need to know.

"The Superman Prime that appeared out of the sun in the year 85,271 is certainly the post powerful member of the Superman Dynasty ever seen and it is quite conceivable that he is now a New God despite his returned humanity. It should be also noted that Superman Prime is currently in possession of the last of the Green Lantern power rings."

Advantage: Superman Prime.

No; has and can use the ring.

Ever read DC 1,000,000...? They explain it in there. Superman Prime is golden -- looks like a 6'2" oscar award.

You sometimes hear people reference him as "sun dipped."

Prime is comparable to Galactus

Galactus imbues his heralds with power cosmic just as Prime imbues his supermen dynasty (who are prob more powerful than heralds) with his energy

Pfft... Doubt it.

There's a huge difference. Galactus is the embodiment of a universe. Superman Prime is the embodiment of a star. There is no comparison.

What is the source of Supes power? Is it the Sun or Prime?

I would seriously love to see superman prime in action...in concept, he just sounds so damn awesome, but you're right, he doesn't really have any feats to show for other than defeating vandal savage and solaris

My point exactly. Once we see what he's capable of, we'll know, but I wouldn't put him up there with the abstracts.

Looks like both...

"It would seem that the Kryptonian gene that gives a person solar powered abilities is a whole or nothing affair with a person either inheriting all the abilities or none. Then again it is possible that the later generations of the Superman Dynasty did weaken requiring Superman Prime to act as a conduit to feed their powers (as evidenced by the weakening of Superman M* while in the twentieth century)."

A little more...

"At the heart of the System is the Super-Sun. When Superman Prime returned from his wanderings at the edge of creation he forged a covenant with the Superman Dynasty. This was to increase their power in return for a reaffirmation of their duties and responsibilities. After that he retreated into the Sun to begin a healing and metamorphoses that would take centuries. His unique Kryptonian ability to absorb and process solar energy changed the nature of the radiation from the Sun so that it "turbo-charged" his descendants, the Superman Dynasty. What he did inside the Sun is unknown, yet over time it became normal for people to refer to the Sun as his Fortress of Solitude. The Sun also served as the link for the System to the Galactic Macronet."

Anywho, a picture of Superman Prime (I mentioned he was golden in another thread I guess) for those who have not seen him:

Pre Crisis Superman. Prime is all hype and no substance.

logically, prime should be at about the level of PC-supes. his power upgrades seem like just enough to bridge the gap from post to pre crisis.

He has the Green Lantern ring, plus it is stated that he is the most powerful of the dynasty without it. How is that "PC" level? That's way more powerful.

How is PC going to win?

By having actual feats and showings against someone who did practically nothing. Thats the very same reason i dont place Sentry at the top either. Not until he shows what he can do at the level "they" say he belongs.

If you count hype, then sure Prime wins without a doubt.

Well, some of the people of the Superman dynasty were mixed with the blood of Imps from the other dimension. Mxyzptlk and all. Who is pretty much completely omnipotent in the 3rd dimension. Even the Spectre couldn't do shit when Joker took Mr Mxy's powers and did the Emperor Joker series. So to say he's more power than all those by a long shot pretty much spanks Galactus.

it's pre-crisis level because superman prime is post crisis. so if superman prime is say 100 times more powerful than regular supes, that would put him about on the level of pre-crisis supes.

You said "no substance;" you are incorrect there. Could PC Superman defeat Solaris? Doubt it. Could PC Superman recreate Krypton? Definitely not. Have you read any of the DC 1,000,000 series? As stated, Superman Prime is all PC Superman plus more, plus the Green Lantern ring. He's way stronger and way faster than PC Superman. He hibernated in the sun for centuries. No way he is "on par" with PC Superman, he is, without a doubt, the most powerful member of the Superman dynasty according to the guy who created him.

Throw in the Sword of Truth for overkill.

The Superman Dynasty received super esp (amongst other things) from Queen Gzntplzk of the Fifth Dimension.
