...F*cking hell. none

Superman tells is why Sinestro couldn't do it...He was still injured. Superman and Parallax already fought and Superman got 2 shotted. It was a nice ring showing though.

How would it confirm that Iceman is more powerful? Thor's Godblast also stopped the Juggernaut and actually started to push him backwards...

I thought Venomverse was mostly going to suck, but at least from the action and villain design part I'm looking forward to it now.

I loathe most of Rebirth, and I don't know why Superman is possessed by Parallax in the first place, but those last few pages (of the comic, not the scans posted)? Jesus Christ, his overpowering of Parallax in a random issue of Superman is as good as almost any Jordan has performed befoe.

Nice to see that Benes is back to being half-decent on pencils too.

It's hard to even wrap my head around the feat, tbh... Sinestro, who has directly interfaced(and outright BONDED) with Parallax multiple times, and is one of the top Lanterns in the whole mythos --right up there with Hal-'God Will'-Jordan-- couldn't even manage to affect Parallax in the slightest, despite HOURS of attempts.

...Then Superman, who has absolutely NO formal training with a Lantern ring, waltzes up, applies HIS brand of hope to Sinestro's OWN goddamn ring, and fully imprisons Parallax in the space of TWO panels, lol... I know Sinestro was still "hurt" from his battle with Hal to some [wholly undefined] extent, but still... JesusF*ckingChrist. 😑

Also, Supes casually using HV to block one of Sinestro's blasts(meant to kill the Qwardian) was impressive as well:

👆

The latest Iron Fist has Danny against Shang-Chi and a mob of mind controlled people, all connected via hive mind. Meaning, the mob has Shang's knowledge (But not his training, so they're clumsier then the real thing.)

For Shang Chi lovers, I'll post this first:

I'm sure Danny admitting Shangs kung fu is stronger will be used forever. 😛

But this is of far more interest to me:

Anyone want to argue Iron Fist has human level durability? 😎

Meh, tbf, he only says that Shang is the one person can PROBABLY take him in a Kung Fu fight.

But that's not for this thread. Great scans, thanks.

Is Venomverse and its tie-ins canon? Should I be reading it?

Its unreal level of willpower to do that. Not even ****ing Spectre could do what Superman did.

Its like imprisoning Galactus using Silver Surfer's power. It shouldn't be even possible.

Or Mjolnir's enchantment being more powerful than Odin...

Technically it was mother storm all along.

Yeah, it was a hell of a feat.

I went back and read Superman 29 too. That bit where Parallax tries to go in to him and he's just like "lol nope" was ****ing ridiculous too.

I guess I am the only GL fan that did not like these issues. How Parallax was written was inconsistent and a product of lazy writing.

I think you're the only GL fan so far.

Superman is ridiculously confident throughout all of this.

I don't know how I would go about adding photos to this post, but I present the unstoppable Batman.

Nice to see that Shang still rapes Danny.

Agreed. 👆

Nice to see that Danny is just and Enhanced human in durability.
