Canon fact. Ur just being mad cause you spoke without being properly informed of his powers.

Surfer still has a vastly superior powerset

Captain Atom was based on DM who's powers are almost identical to SS in many aspects.

As numerous as Surfer creating kryptonite.

But seriously speaking... Manhattan has created complex devices, structures, and even living cells just by manifesting the parts and joining them together. There's no reason why he couldn't create the necessary parts for a power-drainer.. something Doom, Reed, and HE have no problems in creating.

No reason why Surfer couldn't create the same device.

But he hasn't.

So even though those feats are canon, you say "no" so are you ignoring them, or suggesting they didn't happen?

Pretty sure she disagrees with "nearly limitless tk" and "can go anywhere he wants" i also disagree

Naw I'm saying you have no idea what you're saying and talking out your ass, per the norm.

I third that, seems that manhattan "fans" always love to make up extra abilities and over hype what has never been shown in panel....

Stoic ish response which basically means " I will not prove my claims"

(edit) not saying that you have not proven any of your claims just saying that is what the response sounded like.

Does he have limitless tk?

You forgot "nearly" which makes it not limitless 😐

Mars feat seems pretty uber to me. He constructed a intricate clock like super structure out of the ground, levitated and had it moving as smooth as a clock without a seconds thought.

This.

He's displayed neither. Plus he's confusing matter manipulation with transmutation but meh. He's the expert. Iirc dont remember any air to gold or water to metal. But i could be wrong its been awhile

Actually not confusing it, he did transmutation and matter manipulation on the fly.

While he was building the machine on earth he was changing matter.

While on mars he turned air to gold to build the super structure.

I never said he didn't manipulate matter. I said he never transmuted anything. And he can't go anywhere he wants his time travel is limited unless you're referring to teleportation.

He did transmute, when he was building the machine on earth he turned metal to glass.

He also threatened to do the same to Ozy's Artic base.

"You can't run, you know I can turn the walls to glass"

I was referring to his teleportation.

Well, it doesn't end in a stalemate because I was using soul rip and/or telepathy, which were the original tactics.

You then defined a soul, then suddenly, inserted the word 'magical'. Even though your original definition didn't have that word anywhere. Why did you then use that original definition, flawed as it was?

You then somehow argue that the Watchmen universe wasn't part of the DC multiverse. Check pre-52, I'm not doing your homework for you. But it is indeed part of it.

Then you tried saying Surfer has no offensive telepathy, and can only read minds. I show that once he creates a psychic link, he can channel all of the power cosmic down it.

Then....yeah. You're just grasping at straws now. Using the character argument, when your own signature argues against using it, lol.

god is magical. That's where souls come from right?

I did my homework this time. Watchmen are not part of pre 52 at all. Nowhere does it state this. In earth 4 there are variations of them that look similar and have different names with somewhat different story lines.

The definition is not flawed. Without a creator souls can't exist. In the watchmen universe, it is a universe of pure science, no heaven, no hell, no God. Only what most scientist believe today.

I change my mind. Surfer doesn't have offensive tp. That was a plot device. He used the channel of those aliens and sent them back his cosmic power. He never shown the ability to attack someone telepathically using only his own power. We can only speculate that he can. I can then speculate that DM can teleport Surfers head off. I'll argue that Durability doesn't protect against that tactic.
