These little balls that have huge amount of yellow sun energy. Now imagine a huge army of 150k+ who are all sun-dipped like superman in OWAW.
Ouch!

Sun-dipping almost drove Clark mad, I doubt other Kryptonians could take it.

Get near the sun to increase their charge, sure, but that was not a safe procedure.

Done some catching up in wikipedia. So, could they win this? Dont they need a really long time to infiltrate and colonize worlds by spreading the eggs? Do they still have an organized empire?

Even without the WMD of Black Bolt's suicide, it seemed like they were winning the war to me.

It occurs to me that as a small, single planet, the Kryptonians might actually have an ADVANTAGE, as they have very little they have to actually defend. With their tesserect technology, they could concievably place themselves in another dimension and attack from there, making them doubly difficult to take on.

For what it's worth, I'm not talking about Superman holding a Black Hole in his hand, since that is a little up in the air, but when he created the energy barrier around the chronal/universal anomaly, and the many times that he easily survived black holes. He's been doing it since early on in his career.

And maybe Glads WOULD be able to destroy a planet (though hardly in a few blows), but not one defended by a number of kryptonians with tons of weapons.

As for the Martians, I think their singular weakness is too common and too easy to exploit. At least with the Kryptonians they could wear body armor, but the Martians have fear of fire. Just seeing it could mess them up.

Plus their technology wasn't all that great.

As I recall the Kryptonian Empire was never defeated or conquered. The Kryptonians gave up their Empire and became an isolationist Technocracy by choice.

The Kree won because they had better leadership. Vulcan stretched his resources thin to fight everybody including the ceded territories. Whereas the Kree had Maximus and Black Bolt's energy to power the weaponry. How the heck is Vulcan going to win? Plus, Black Bolt got lucky during the first assault. Gladiator could've killed him or Vulcan could've Nega-bomb that planet, but the goal was to abduct Lilandra.



Well, it's not an empire anymore. As a planet, it still has limited resources compared to when it was an empire.

Having one planet as your sole base and resource is horrible going up against stellar empires. The Shi'ar stomp them with a few nega-bombs backed by thousands of war ship.

I don't know. Do you think the Shi'ar can stomp a power the Black Lantern Corps failed to stomp?
