Booster's shields ARE variable in strength/output. I don't need to spitball here like you've been doing, because I KNOW this to be a canon fact as I am very familiar with BG(he's a favorite of mine): http://i.imgur.com/ya4geVj.jpg
That being said, anyone who is familiar with Booster also knows that when he's just flying around doing routine hero-work, he places the intensity of his shields on a fairly low setting to conserve power. When he engages in any sort of noteworthy battle, however, he always sets them to FULL intensity when possible.
If you have any other questions regarding Booster(or Doomsday, for that matter) I'd be glad to sort them out for you.

I am not even going to debate. You know my situation and I think you will do the same if you were in the same position.
However I will like to mention that.
Maybe you should re read why Galan was giving the Nod To HP DD. It is there in plain English and if I can understand his point I am sure you can too.
Now onto the Hulk and Monica Rambeau showing:
That is cool and all but that is a HULK feat not a RULK feat. So not even sure what are you trying to pulling out of this one, are you trying to give RULK one of HULK's feats? Or what?
Not only that, but RADIANT is an energy being, the ultimate energy being according to the Jurgens narration. Not sure if you have read the comic of Hunter Prey but it is there in plain english, so to think Monica Rambeau is the same as Radiant it will be as wrong as trying to pin Hulk's feats into Rulk's repertoire.
You should read Doomsday year one, DOS, Hunter Prey, Doomsday Wars so you at least will get an idea of what we are talking about here, read them not only see the scans but read the stories, you will probably like them.
The tragic case of Klerck was making the rounds in the news just before I joined my first Internet forum.
It put into perspective just how mortal and vulnerable and sometimes desperate people are on the other side of the screen.
I seldom forget there are real people behind most of these usernames as a result. It's why I've rarely if ever gone as far as other posters when I've had disagreements.
I have no idea what I would do if I were in your position, honestly.
I'll say a prayer for you, KC.
This is a point I can agree to only for the sake of argument. I have not seen anything that would actually convince me that what you're saying is true as Monica Rambeau /Captain Marvel is described in fairly similar terms.
The analogy should be easy to see, though, and I'm surprised you're having difficulty. Radiant is a DC analog of Monica Rambeau/Captain Marvel. Doomsday however, is the DC analog of Hulk, not Rulk.
Doomsday resists Radiant therefore beats Rulk doesn't follow.
Hulk resists Monica Rambeau therefore beats Rulk didn't follow either, at least, not initially.
The fact that Hulk could resist a being master of radiant energy did nothing to protect him from an energy ABSORBING foe (Rulk).
I don't see where the fact that Doomsday could resist a being master of radiant energy would protect HIM from an energy ABSORBING foe (Rulk), either.
Galan has even admitted Doomsday was weakened before fighting Superman and becoming more powerful as the fight went on due to absorbing solar energy. Rulk absorbs the life out of him.
Evolution is a process, not a power source. Evolving is one of Doomsday's powers. It's like healing is one of Hulk's powers, but I wouldn't say that Hulk is powered by healing (and Hulk has also shown physical adaptation power himself).
-Doomsday can store solar energy for "A millennia"(ie. 1,000 years)... Yet he was buried/imprisoned in complete darkness for ~250,000 years, and still did what he did to Superman and the League.
-Soon thereafter, Doomsday reanimated from his 'death' at the hands of Superman, and was 'ported to Apokolips... Where there is NO solar radiation(at least not the yellow variety)...and still did what he did to Darkseid+Apokolips+an AMPED Superman+Radiant+Waverider, etc.
So while his genealogy may allow Doomsday to nourish himself to *some* extent via the absorption of solar energy, it is obviously NOT detrimental to his existence/power.

It doesn't say that he simply feeds on sunlight. It says that he is solely nourished by it. But he and Superman could feed off of a sandwich if the want to, but it is not necessary. By definition, that which nourishes you maintains your health, vigor and vital functions.
I have always maintained that it seems *possible* based on Bertron's statement. However, DD progressively becoming more powerful in DoS via absorbing sunlight was NEVER mentioned/implied anywhere on panel, thus is it NOT a canon fact -- it is merely an OPINION I came up with on my own.
It's not a power source, but he simply evolved to be that strong.
The comic does not say he's powered by solar energy. To argue he gets his strength by solar energy is a circular argument. The best you can argue Rulk would do would be he gives Doomsday the munchies.
And are you just wanting Rulk to win and will go by any means necessary, or are you actually fairly debating the topic?

Why does it take so long years for him to escape? Could it be due to the lack of solar energy? Plus, the Earth's surface does absorb solar energy, so some probably reaches him.
Since comicbook DD is not, to my knowledge, Kryptonian, he wouldn't necessarily require yellow sunlight and my understanding is that New Genesis has some sort of sun. Superman doesn't lose his powers when he goes to Apokalips.
You're splitting hairs significantly here. Are you just wanting Doomsday to win and will go by any means necessary?
He is established with a stored energy source that is described as nourishing him. Nourishment provides strength. Rulk's ability to siphon such energy under Loeb is fair game that can't be discarded under the premise of DD not having a stored energy source.
No, I'm not. Nor am I just wanting Doomsday to win and will go by any means necessary. You're going through mental gymnastics to try and justify that Rulk will actually be any more effective than giving Doomsday the munchies.
So answer my question. Are you just trying to argue Rulk winning, or are you trying to debate fairly?
