Not exactly, I mean yeah Superman could destroy a bunch of VG characters but in his own world he wouldn't seem as powerful when faced against people like Darkseid, Doomsday, Martian Manhunter, Silver Surfer.
Don't know where you're from, but where I live, in my native language, a book and a comic book are two seperate things. Both just happening to have pages in them.
A more direct translate would be "Books" and "Comic Magazines", I guess.
I think there were some very powerful characters in the Cthulhu mythos.
About comic books having ridiculous characters. Well, just look at how many characters there are who can warp reality, space and time, how many can pretty much crap out universes at will, how many have near-omnipotence. I think that's just not interesting at all.

Comics is a huge medium, that has spanned for decades. The majority of their characters, are NOT so powerful.
And as for who can warp reality, that is a very vague term, the Infinity Gauntlet which was mentioned in this thread is very powerful by comic standards.
Spiderman, Batman, Ironman, even top-tier characters like Superman or Thor, can do nothing above planetary most of the time.
And why is vast power synonymous with lack of imagination to you?
Lich King stats -
Health - 27,890,000 (maximum)
Mana - 8,516,000 (maximum)
He also carries Frostmourne, gets exponentially more powerful as time passes, and is thought of as a god by several clans and races. He also backs this up with his power and abilities.
Kain get's his pasty ass handed to him. Anyone who says different is....well is Burning Thought.
I see the problem with it, I was just putting it out there. Let's take the stats out, who do you think wins? The guy who can summon undead armies, or the vampire?
