No, he(Supes) was unable to lay a finger on him(DS) from what I remember. Different circumstances same basic concept(PIS to a street level hero). Point being, Supes has just as many low showings to his credit that Surfer does. More in all likelihood due to Supes larger number of appearances.

And the armbar being brought up was the whole reason that DS was.

.....when?

I've already posted it in here. It's after Page 255 and before Page 265. Find it. Or don't. I've backed up what I've stated. A weakened pre-upgraded Surfer cut off from the PC physically overpowered the Hulk, and he's bullrushed (or blitzed, whatever you people want to call it) people at 31.5 million x light speed. On panel fact.

Not sure, I haven't seen all the encounters between DS and Supes. I just remember Supes rushing in and then completely losing track of him when he pulled some "Spidey like" maneuvers. So whichever book that happened in.

Why? Because I site low showing in response to low showings from others? You should really watch your temper, if your as bad off with the Mods as you say bashing like that would likely spell trouble for you if I decided to use the report button. Luckily enough for you, I don't feel the need to do that due to the hilarity of your argument.

Superman 68?
He eludes a bit but Superman captures him.

So I'm still trying to figure out how the hell someone is using Byrne's explainion of Superman's powers as a way to demean his strength feats when Byrne's origin was retconned out.

Origin yes. Entire run, no.

I never said that he didn't eventually. But the initial encounter DEFINATELY made Supes look bad, and my example was in response to a post claiming that kind of thing would never happen.

ok, its understandable that a guy like DS would give Superman 'some' trouble in capturing him

that's in no way comparable to being armlocked by a being that is more than 1 billion times weaker than you are

Eh, it was right after the reboot, weak Superman, and Superman still caught him despite all his flipping around.

I see where you're going and why, but this one really isn't comparable.

How is it not comparable to be unable to catch(or even keep sight of) someone a billion times slower than you are?

Origin was wiped form contiunity. superman was depowered specifically. So anything relating to his powers would also be out of the window.

I'm a lot faster than an ant, but I may have some trouble capturing it

I'm alot stronger than an ant, and ant will never be able to overpower me

see the difference?

You realize all of this that they're bringing up is a red herring? Irrelevant misdirection, designed at shifting the spotlight away from how easily Surfer wins against Superman, every time.
