The only other reason I can that of for Captain Atom saying Majestic isn't as strong as Superman is that he got a massive powerup when he switched universes and just doesn't realize how powerful he is now. Or Khellendros is right and the writers just didn't do their research. 😬

Or option 3 - I have pretty much everything Majestic right back to image days and...... check out the Superman feats thread post crisis and compare to Khells respect thread. 🙂 It's interesting.

They're in the same strength class. Any difference between the two is minimal and barely worth mentioning.

Superman doesnt lift a mountain over his head like its nothing.....on a regular basis

Well he has lifted one over his head, flew into space and tossed it into the sun. This was during the Byrne/Jurgens years when he was at least 2-3x less powerful than he became under Loeb's run.

I don't read Majestic and I don't know what you call a regular basis. I doubt he lifts mountains every issue.

sincerely, he lifts things that are ludeley out of supes range just about every issue.

I look at battle feats and lifting feats to determine who is stronger than who. I think Superman's top lifting feat is when he alternated shifts with Green Lantern holding the moon in place against constantly increasing gravity. As for battle feats, well, hardly anyone beats his battle feats. Full on PIS Superman is superior to a 12 man JLA lineup.

Amen. Agreed on this part, but I don't know anything about Majestic. But I doubt too, that he can lift more than Supes.

I have Majestics first appearance, I never saw him as being as strong as Superman in any respect... I mean that is if you look back at his Image years. Does anyone remember his appearance in that comic called Wildcore? There was a guy from a group called the War Guard that was definately stronger than Majestic, again I don't remember his name, but he was running the bag off of Majestros... he was also the leader of the War Guard... does anyone remember this? He also was white like Lobo. Anyways the only guy in Image that rivaled Superman was Supreme, and Supreme fought Union and was tossing him around unlike when Majestros fought Union. Maybe someone can bring me up to speed on how, and when Majestic became so powerful.

While viewing your scans, I feel as if they are portraying Majestic properly. This is defineatly the Majestic that I originally read about in his Image days... if anything I feel that his lifting feats in DC contradicts his feats in Image.

No other books in Wildstorm are cohesive Kellendros. In Wildcats Nemesis it was even stated that Jack Marlow is dead yet is alive in Majestic's solo series. Hell, Wildstorm pretty much ignored continuity from the Image days after they split with him. Really I do not know what the complaint it.

No, these two new minis aren't cohesive. Shit's gone downhill since DC bought up Wildstorm, and this is just glaring proof.

Don't know what the complaints are? Well, let me clue you in. Actually, instead of typing it out myself I'll just link you to a guy who's alredy done the work.

It's crap writing backed up by little to no research.

that fight was stupid
majestic was big news and was supposed to be very poerful in dc, and he was taking on the heros for the storyline, if he lost to c atom that just made it seem stupid, wat rating would u give majestic 9.5, 9 cause i have a book of the old atom and it says hes a 9+ so its true it would be a good fight but majestic should have won

They're both about equal. I just started reading Majestic comics, they're great so far IMO.

I don't even care about what Atom said about Majestic any more. The fact is, I'm a fan of Wildstorm and it's characters and Will Pfieffer is taking a dump on them.

Majestic moved around a solar system, with relative ease.

Not really. Saying it that way implies he physically moved the whole solar system. He moved some moons, made a few others, moved Mercury, and used his eye beams to change Jupiter. Moon moving is nothing beyond Superman. Look at his respect thread and theres a scan of him saying he could move the Earth if he wants.

And can anyone tell me what Majestic's eye beams actually are? They seem to do a lot of funky things. 😕

Actually, he moved the Earth as well. It's why he needed the false sun, the image generating satellites, and the huge machines maintaining the tides and poles. Also, Mercury.

I have a theory that he emits a few kinds of EM energy from his eyes, including laser beams. I came up with this theory because, like you said, they do a lot. They charged up that mini sun which needed radiation dampeners, and a pulse of some kind of energy changed Jupiter's chemical composition. When he cut open Eradicator, it says he microwaves the suit open, but he emits photons to reprogram him. Also, he seems to be able to scan for radiation visually and see people's kirlian auras, and hear radio transmissions, which are also EM radiation. Still, it's just a theory.

.

Which is impressive strength but nothing beyond Supes. Hey he smashes his way through small moons at Warp speed witout slowing the kinetic energy needed to do that would move the Earth.

Agreed, but nothing Majestick has done is above Supes present strength level no matter what Khel would try to prove.Supes feats are at least equal.
