Yea I read that comic years ago, and Hyperion killed Wonderman, but back in those days Wonderman couldn't fly under his own power. The new Wonderman is stronger than he was then, so my vote goes to Simon this time around.
Is there an updated profile anywhere?
Anyway, he was class 95, and was supposedly indestructible, because he was actually made up of ionic energy. So, I never understood how Hyperion broke his arm.
Hyperion was class 75. That is a decent difference. I am a big fan of the fact that higher strength should not always mean that person is the winner. But, the difference between 95 and 75 is pretty big.
Anyway, when you read up on them, they both are pretty much made of energy-made-solid.
Somebody tell me about Wonderman now.
Wonderman was never purely made up of ionic energy, his bones were laced with ionic energy. As far as Hyperions strength level being class 75, Marvel made a mistake. The reason why I say this is, because before he ever fought Wonderman he was able to go toe to toe with Thor, and was able to not only hold his own, but actually made Thor work for the win. Thor can lift/press far beyond 100 tonnes. Marvel has made this mistake with a few of their chracters in the past Juggernaut being a prime example. Hyperion at his worse showed in strength feats that he was at the very least, in the low class 100 bracket.
