He's an alien who gains more powerful with yellow sunlight.
K Von Doom Being called a "god", especially pantheonic gods doesn't really mean anything. I haven't read anything about Superman Prime, but if he's supposedly thousands of times more powerful than regular Superman then I don't see how Odin can beat him.
Yup. That works both ways. Prime fighting "gods and demons" means what? Kalibak is a god - a crappy one at that. Ghost Rider is a demon. Gods and demons don't mean much. Skyfathers are on another level.
Take Thanos and Thor for instance. Thanos is probably three or four times more powerful than Thor, as he was able to easily disable a maddened Thor possessing the power gem. Now when Thanos fought Odin it's clear that Thanos was able to give the skyfather a little trouble. Of course, Thanos had no chance of beating him but the fact that the Titan was able to withstand Odin's attacks says something about the power differential between the two of them. Don't say that Odin wasn't taking it seriously - he had his spear with him, he knew Thanos was a villain and Thor's life was in danger. Anyway, I don't think anyone will argue that the power difference between Thanos and Odin is large... say three, four or even five times more powerful than Thanos (lets give Odin the benefit of the doubt)...
So if 1 Thanos = 4 Thors; and 1 Odin = 5 Thanos; that means Odin = 20 Thors
True. Take Tyrant for instance, he stomped Beta Ray Bill, Gladiator, Surfer, Terrax, and Jack Of Heart all at once - but it took him serveral tries to put each down. Tyrant too struggled with Thanos, but not as much as Odin did.
However, Odin backhanded Surfer like a whore and Surfer's out of the fight. It didn't take a few tries; a swipe and Surfer's out. Odin did struggle with Thanos and couldn't put him down. Now before you say anything, Annihilus has given Thor trouble, but when he mouthed off at Odin and tried to attack, Odin blasted him outta Asgard in one blast. Odin's taken out several Enchanters, while the weakest one have given Thor trouble.
Now take into account that Beyonder, Tyrant, Walker, and Magus' Thanos clone has either lost or have had trouble putting Thanos down.
That's what you gotta love about Thanos he has the durability to keep going and going. WM Thor w/ Power Gem was slugging it out with Thanos, who rather enjoyed it.
Now, lets assume that roughly 1 Superman = 1 Thor
then it'll take at least 20 Supermen to equal Odin... maybe even 50!
Now, Superman Prime is at least a thousand times more powerful than regular Superman... I think it's pretty clear...
But he has trouble with Solaris?
Looking at it another way, during the Surtur saga, no one will argue that Surtur = Odin, some would even say that Surtur is more powerful than Odin. But did you notice that Loki, all by himself, was able to pester Surtur. Loki!! The half giant whos on Thor's level of power!! The God of Mischief wouldn't have beaten Surtur but it shows how powerful Loki is in comparison to Surtur, and hence in comparison to Odin. Now imagine Loki's power multiplied by at least one thousand... Surtur would definitely go down. That's how Surtur will do against Superman Prime. Hence, that's how Odin will do against Superman Prime.I'm now ready for someone to blow holes in my argument.
Surtur had the Twilight Sword did he not? Surtur also destroyed a galaxy to forge his sword to fight Odin right? From what I know, he's a bit below Odin; that Sword puts him above Odin.
That's nice but Loki has owned Beta Ray Bill, Drago, and Masterson Thor with his mystical attacks before. Odin has kicked Seth's but and killed him. Does Prime have any energy projections aside from heat vision? Cause all he's going to due is punch harder.
Furthermore, according to that and another bio, they list him as possibly being a New God. Guess what, Orion is a new god, so is Darkseid.
Prime = New God
Kalibak = New God
Prime = Kalibak
Theoritically Prime should be on Galactus level, but he's not. I mean all Solaris did was emit radiation to kill the Supermen. Prime needed the ring to kill Solaris?
