Yes but the second time he didnt just loose his powers completely, every time he attacked supes he got weaker and weaker. This means his initial stuff was near near all out.

Why do people have to make what's written plain as day so hard?

C'mon brah

despite being yet again cemented as ultimately small and pathetic, luthor's portrayal throughout that arc was a pretty interesting take on the charatcer and human nature. nigh limitless potential and ambition, still crippled by the pettiness of his heart. I liked that story

He was trying to break superman at first, mentally. When he intended to kill him his powers were weakened. The rest I have stated multiple times. If you can't get it have a family member splain it.

Come on what , I never stated that supes took out an Infinitely powerful Lex. All this is to show that Supes tanked shit from a guy who was still extremely powerful. A guy I believe at a level well above Thanos, which is what this thread is all about

Thanos has taken on beings with infinite power and won. All we know is Lex was vastly limited and unable to kill Supes when he had infinite power. This doesn't help your case since Supes never beat Lex.

You're arguing against the comics is what's come on.

Also, lol.
"He's big, he must be above Thanos"
Like I said, that shit wasn't quantifiable in the least. All we know was he was powerful. He didn't have infinite power, and he surely wasn't at the "Universal Bliss" level.

Supes doesnt have to beat lex to show his durability. What this does is solidify my belief that Supes is beyond Thanos ability to put down

And what beings od infinite power has Thanos beat ?

Maker.

We don't base one unquantifiable feat and undermine Supes' whole history. Supes still gets beat up by Orion's, Darkseid's, and soon to be DD attacks.

I can safely say I think Thanos tanks everything Supes got hit with based off of his history.

I'd say that's actually quite similar to the Lex thing.
She was limited. He was limited.

Except Thanos legit stomped a mudhole in her...

She was limited in terms of vulnerability(body) but I think she still wielded infinite power.

maker's power isn't infinite. none of the cube beings have infinite power.

Since when ?

since the retcon that made beyonder and molecule man into cube beings, so pretty much since always essentially. they are extremely powerfull, but arent even abstract, thier power has been described as below eternity, the celestials, certainly the living tribunal and in the beyonder's case, it's probably below the molecule man himself.

No. There are different levels of infinity and the Celestials and the others are higher up.

In his face IMO

OK, but in that case the maker's level of infinity was not all that impressive.

yeah, guess I got quanned

I think very impressive just not up to their level.

Hi guys,
Long time reader and first time poster. I wanted to add to Paisapower’s stance

Lex with infinite power first tries to “disintegrate” superman on page 25 & 26 and is shocked that superman was still alive. It was explained that the being was fighting Lex for control and was limiting him. How much was he limited? By half? What’s half of infinity?

I believe that Lex at that point was operating on power levels well beyond Thanos and was still unable to kill Superman. For whatever its worth, on page 27 Luthor says that he needs infinite power to kill superman.

On page 32 he expels the being and takes full control and retains infinite power. He is able to create universal happiness page 34 without diminishing himself. The infinite power flees Luthor on page 37 when he decides to kill superman. He didn’t look diminished but as Paisa says he no longer had access to the reservoir and so depleted his power during his attack on superman. How much power Lex had in this case is debatable, it wasn’t infinite and probably not at the levels he was operating on during his first attempt on page 25.
Anyway good points on both sides.
