Power Girl isent stronger than Captain Marvel.
"He should...DC dropped the ball with CM, he should be on Supes level of respect/admiration in the DCU, but he's mostly been 2nd tier. Such a shame."
How can they " drop the ball" if hes one of the few who doesnt lose against Superman. Unlike Power Girl and Wonder Woman. Inside DC universe as a character id agree, he was created by a rival company that outsold Superman. He will never have the same treatment.
"Yea that IS true Doom. WW is stronger than Herc, BUT Captain Marvel can combine strengths of Gods. He combined the Strength of Hercules and Atlas to match Supes's strength."
Wonder Woman is only stronger than Mortal Herc. Against regular aka God of Strenght she isent. Its nothing but a pun.
And Captain Marvel combining powers dont make him above either Supes and Diana ( but in the same class ) for one simple reason. He doesnt have the full power of any its patrons.

I said DC dropped the ball with him, comic-wise for the reasons you said, but also marketing-wise. He SHOULD have had an ongoing since he debuted in the DCU, and it never should have gotten cancelled (DC has put out a lot weaker series since crisis).
I mean, little kids should LOVE the Marvel family: They are all almost as powerful as Supes (and in CM's case, more powerful toe-to-toe) AND THEY ARE ACTUALLY KIDS!! DC has missed out on a goldmine.
