1. It's more questionable given Alexander never used his powers in that way and given he knew who Deathstorm was but didn't get his powers until he killed him makes it more questionable.
2. Sucking mentally is NOT in his powerset. If it would be, mazahs would have become the Ultimate God of his own Universe by sucking all the energy sitting in toilet.
3. He fought JL first time and defeated them. Unaware of them and ways to beat them . He went straight beating them one after the other. Thing is : he is a complete package , not magical or physical but he will just 'have' what is needed to defeat opponents. He will just get the rod and end him , simple. The rod would be somewhere where he will travel or just summon it in his hands . The minimum power needed to finish off an opponent , no matter who .
Gotham wins.

a.) For all we know, Alex never directly interacted with Deathstorm until that one scene in the final issue of FE. You're acting like we have all this backstory on Earth-3 and the CSA -- we don't, lol.
b.) No one said that Alex can sit in some remote location and mentally absorb any hero's power he wants. However, he CAN drain the energy from beings in his vicinity. Simple.
c.) So now Gotham is going to beat Alex by pulling a specialized lightning rod out of his ass and then perfectly mimicking Luthor's voice to call down the lightning of Mazahs? Lol, you're obviously just trolling.
At this point you're just childishly ignoring evidence because you clearly want Gotham to win here. It's cute. Thing is, you're 'points' literally make no sense at all. Take a deep breath and stop throwing a hissy fit.

First scan: Alex pummels Bizarro and delivers a fatal blow before leaving.
Second scan: we see that Bizarro is still alive(albeit barely.)
A few pages later Alex uses ice vision and heat breath, so we know he MUST HAVE absorbed Bizarro's powers in the first scan(he *did* say that he wanted Bizarro's powers, after all)... Which means that he DIDN'T kill Bizarro before he drained him... Which means that he DOESN'T have to kill his opponent before absorbing their power.
So again: Alex did not *have* to kill a character to drain their energy. Like we have been saying all along: he killed those he absorbed because he was a sadistic/brutal motherf*cker -- but killing was obviously not a prerequisite for absorbing.
= yet another reason why his child's feats should be perfectly applicable to Alex himself.

Of course he has limits. But you posted a scan of Gotham Girl defeating Gotham and we don't know the context to that. Supposedly, she has some awesome abilities that will be revealed in the next few issues.
His threshold is pretty high, seeing as he took out the JLA. Definitely above top tier, IMO. Tom King hinted that it may be more to his defeat, so we'll see in the coming weeks.

Thats what i'm saying too. Are we to believe that Gotham has the 'Minimum' power to take out somebody like the Spectre or the LT for cripes sake because thats what some people seem to be suggesting? Gotham Girl said that they can have the power of a God briefly, but heck Thors a God. The JL feat was neat, but it wasnt all that. I guess we'll have to wait and see what Gotham Girl can do (as the great Gotham is indisposed already). If she starts beating people like Mr. Mxyzptlk then i'll be forced to change my opinion. Until then,,,,meh.
