Yeah, I mean, you've got to take into consideration the fact that Superman wasn't in his right mind when he fought her.

Of course, I still haven't heard anything that convinces me that Byrne's Supes tops WW. Two of his feats you listed(the mountain and the asteroid) have both been accomplished by the Hulk(and he was calm for one and Grey for the other). The way I see it, DOS Supes and current WW are probably about equal as far as strength goes, but she still has the advantage in skill, and probably has speed feats that trump his as well.

Well, I'd like to see some type of evidence to suggest Wonder Woman is capable of lifting something the size of Metropolis, or smash something that can destroy Earth. It's no secret she's weaker than Supes.

And since when is being compared to someone like Hulk in strength a bad thing? Also, Hulk didn't lift the mountain, he braced it on his back. Superman threw the land mass into space.

Strength advantage, I'd give to Byrne's Supes. Speed is about even. Byrne's Supes was able to see lightning in slow motion. Skill obviously goes to Diana, but versatility and durability still go to Superman.

Byrne's Superman 6-7/10.

Byrne's Superman fought a true PC version of Superboy... and took some damn good shots.

He literally absorbed the energy of another solar powered being.

Resisted magical transmutation. Took a huge brunt of the blast that destroyed Krypton. Weakened from being thrown into a red sun twice...he flew back to earth in a few minutes under his own power.

Just a couple off the top of my head in addition to what Juntai and Batdude wrote.

On top of that...stalemating with Doomsday is quite a feat considering what DD did before he met Superman...he was already quite powerful.

You could also consider the fact that Supes was right next to the sun that he draws power from as a plot device as well.
Diana with the Kryptonite ring stunted his power absorbtion, imo.

Can someone give me issues or scans of some of these feats They be quite useful.
