In the movie Superman has turned back time by flying around the planet, moved faster than light, and lifted a small continent surrounded by Kryptonite with Kryptonite jabbed in his side, and immediately after survived orbital re-entry.
Well many of Superman's powers are from the "Generic" Power Set.
Flight, Invulnerability, Super Speed, Super Strength, even energy projection in the form of heat vision and frost breath. There are many people who have these powers. You can't really say he's a clone of Superman unless he's a character like Gladiator, or Sentry, or Hyperion, who are obvious copies. Hancock is just a guy who can fly really fast, can hit really hard, can lift a whole lot, and is basically impossible to hurt.
And the only reason people think of all of these as copies of Superman, is because he was the 1st. Apparently, everyone is a copy of everyone else then. Black Lightning/Electro, Wolverine/Midnighter, Deadpool/Deathstroke, etc....
Superman has Hancock beat because Hancock simply doesn't have the feats to match. Or the experience for that matter.
Besides didn't he feel the heat from an apartment fire? That suggests his durability isn't too high.
Yeah, just because you feel something, doesn't mean it hurt you. I could feel the heat radiating off of a campfire, does that mean it hurt me? No, it just means I felt it. Who says Superman didn't feel it when that mini gun was going off on his chest, maybe he felt it, it was just not enough to hurt him.
Superman has so many high level feats compared to Hancock, is basically spite. And while Hancock very well could be on Supe's level, until they give him as many movies, with as many feats, it's basically unfair. It's like putting Toyman in a hand to hand fight with Thor.
These are the comments for why i made this thread,, me and a couple mates have been debating on this, myself being a huge Superman fan and knowing all the things he can do, believe this is no match. But they seem to think Hancock would win because apparently you couldnt kill him. And ive looked up a couple other threads which seem to think the same thing. i might have to watch the movie again before i make the next post
Well, he was basically invulnerable until he came into contact with his mate, if she wasn't around, he was pretty much unstoppable.
And you can't compare Hancock and comic Supes, only movie Supes, movie Supes still has more feats than him. And like I said, until he gets Hancock 2, with huge feats, then Superman automatically is stronger, but there is a possibility that Hancock can't be harmed unless he's around another of his own kind.
just because hancock cant get harmed by the low grade human weaponry used in the film doesn't mean that he can't get harmed by stuff on supermans level. He's so far beyond the weaponry used in that film, and so far beyond the strikes of the girl. Because when they first got into the fight they didn't seem to be losing their powers just yet, infact the sure nature of it seemed to change at the end of the movie.
