And he probably is.
The only problem with your line of reasoning is that Max doesn't have control over how psychotic Superman is after Max makes him snap. He can't dial Superman back down to the level of force Superman was using against "Ruin" in the previous episode.And he hasn't. Proof is that Superman's punch sends Diana over 20 million miles away when he finally connects. That's not [b]Superman
holding back in the least.
Like Rucka says, he's going to kill Doomsday, period.
Max may have other plans, and be calm, and cool, and collected, but Clark isn't. That's the wildest, fullest-force punching the man can muster.[/B]
Fair enough, but a psychotic episode is this:
Psychosis
Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.
Psychosis is a loss of contact with reality that usually includes: False beliefs about what is taking place or who one is (delusions) ; Seeing or hearing things that aren't there (hallucinations)
Superman having the intention of making Doomsday suffer it means no intention of killing, just causing pain, while I probably believe WW received a very strong punch (after all she got KO'ed) it wasn't Clark's most powerful punch, if it where a punch intended to kill Doomsday it will have been a stronger punch than a punch delivered to make Doomsday suffer, unless of course you could think that Wonder Woman is somehow more resistant than Doomsday and that she will be able to survive a punch intended to kill Doomsday.
Do you think Wonder Woman will survive a punch intended to kill Doomsday
OR
Do you think that a punch designed to hurt Doomsday will KO Diana?
Which one makes more sense?

Well you are ignoring picking and choosing what you might want to find to be true and disregarding a comic RELATED to WW #219 written by the SAME writer and part of the same arc, but somehow you want to dis miss it for an interview and then on top of that you ask me to find an all out Superman under Greg Rucka. Which it makes it almost impossible, but guess what I found?
Here is a NOT MENTALLY handicapped Superman making a short work of a military kryptonian, because he is using Batman's training
I wonder How the fight will have gone, if Rucka decided to use a non mentally handicapped Superman who thinks straight
He KO the guy, not intention of killing there
Now lets go to the other direct comparison
Rucka's power level between Alpha 1 and Alpha 2
Wonder Woman vs Omacs
Also notice how Wonder Woman is still injured from her encounter with Superman while Superman healed right away. Wonder Woman had a tougher time defeating the Omac than Superman had

Superman vs Omacs
Superman is actually dealing with two problems yet see how easily he defeats the Omac

Superman proved more than capable of dodging the tiara as proven when he dodged WW's superspeed lasso attack in the same issue. The tiara was just too fast.

You mean when she was trying to reason with him? (Holding back) then he immediately freeze breath attacked her? Lol. Ya he sure let her recover there :-\

Superman is lucky she decided to not decapitate him with the tiara.

Yes at the time she felt she couldn't beat him. Thats why she didn't even want to fight him, just weaken him. Which she did with 2 kicks lol.

She did. After the hv warning shot Superman is done playing and they are both ready. She hits him twice compared to his once and even gets a technical bfr.

Thats his mistake. He gets outskilled and kicked out of the mountain because of it.

Good thing WW is capable of defeating a fully pissed Superman.
Originally posted by Letters
Again. Shes trying to reason with him and he freeze breath attacks her for it. Its not like he stood there and let her wail on him. They were both standing and talking and he attacked first. According to abhillegend that is a sucker shot.
Originally posted by Letters
Not for lack of trying. He freeze breath attacked her immediately.
Originally posted by Letters
Good thing WW has defeated Superman in wrath mode.
Originally posted by Letters
WW had already disengaged. It wasn't her goal to fight him but to destroy the machine. When they were fighting in 211 she got more hits AND kicked him away from the objective.
Originally posted by Letters
She removed him from the objective and had a chance to destroy the machine but didn't. She was pretty stupid in that comic that's for sure
Originally posted by Letters
Everyone knows hes stronger than her. She looks better when they were actually fighting, not when shes posing with a knife and not when they are talking to each other before or after a supersmack.
Originally posted by Letters
Sure looks like it.
If thats true what would be the point? Why wouldnt circe just mind control him then?
Originally posted by Letters
Yet that is exactly what did not happen.
That's exactly what happened. Look at how Brainiac-Doomsday was toying with her.
http://s1199.photobucket.com/user/Delta1938/library/Comparing/DOOMSDAY%20WARS/Wonder%20Woman
Yeah, even with his mentally handicapped mindset, an enraged Superman with Doomsday's powers stacked on would've murdered her.
Originally posted by Letters
I imagine anyone fighting Superman would be struggling to survive.
Anybody as below him as she is.
Originally posted by Letters
Ya hes stronger than her without being combined with Doomsday. What does this have to do with anything?
Just pointing-out how even when mentally handicapped, he still physically overwhelms her. Good thing for her he wasn't combined with Doomsday or she would've died without Plot-Device.
Originally posted by Letters
And she didn't die and she won the fight.
Due to her being fortunate enough that he was mentally handicapped, and he was distracted allowing her to get the lasso and undo Circe's spell.
Originally posted by Letters
Showing her skill and resourcefulness against a blatantly more powerful opponent.
Showing how weak she is compared to him. And that she's resourceful to deal with Superman's IQ being downgraded to animalistic level.
Originally posted by Letters
Superman isn't a normal human. Crucifer realized he had Superman and didn't drain him so that he could control him. Where is it stated in the comic that Superman was weaker there?
Never said Superman's a normal human. That's why he wasn't turned into a husk. We see what Crucifer did to people, we know Crucifer did bite and start to feed on Superman. Would I be wrong to assume you can figure-out 2+2?
Originally posted by Letters
We don't know because Crucifer didn't even try. This entire tangent is irrelevant.
He didn't even try? Then why did we see him starting to feed on Superman on-panel(in the same page where he turned a human into a lifeless husk)--
--and Crucifer says "I have tasted his blood and ensnared his soul" when he was telling WW that Supes wasn't an imposter?
He did drain Superman to some degree. Just because Supes tasted horrible to him doesn't mean he didn't drain Superman. 'Cuz, ya know, we see Crucifer spitting out blood while saying Superman's an alien and tastes horrible.
Originally posted by Letters
Where is this stated?
Again, would I be wrong in assuming you can figure-out 2+2?
Originally posted by Letters
Ya Batman's ****ing badass bro. 2 vampires + Crucifer (who only survived because his heart was hidden away) + Superman can only defeat WW with sucker shits, playing possum and all of the vampires dying. Good job Superman! lol
😆 You trying to up Batman as damage control for Wonder Woman is hilarious. Aside from controlling Superman the entire fight, Crucifer doesn't do shit other than get a sword through him until after Superman TKOs Wonder Woman. And those vampires did nothing relevant. The best you could argue is they were a distraction. And Superman can certainly beat Wonder Woman without sucker shots, as he's proven in FINAL CRISIS, A LEAGUE OF ONE, FOR TOMORROW depending on your interpretation, and other examples. So, your interpretation is retarded.
Originally posted by Letters
Ya she did look even despite being sucker shot twice and also outnumbered 4 to 1. Good job Superman! lol
Damn, Wonder Woman must be even weaker than I thought if it's so amazing that she held her own against a weakened Superman handicapped by mind control, two cannon fodder vampires that were barely superhuman, a more powerful vampire that did absolutely nothing until she was already TKOed and she had a sword that easily decapitated those non-factor vampires. I guess she's maybe Thing level, if that, with worse piercing resistance.
Originally posted by Letters
Prove Superman was weakened or compromised.
On the weakened, again, am I wrong to assume you can add 2 and 2? On the compromised, he was Crucifer's puppet. Any competent comic reader will know that means handicapped. So it doesn't surprise me you need it explained.
Originally posted by Letters
2 sucker punches.
That first sucker punch is really a joke, unless you think Wonder Woman is so weak it's amazing she beat cannon fodder barely superhuman vampires with a sword. Second one isn't that much better. So your only argument is she was unprepared. First one yeah, she had every right not to expect that. Second one? Stupid on the part of an Amazon. She should've expected that one.
Originally posted by Letters
She looked better actually. Got in more hits than Superman too (not counting sucker shots).
They're not point fighting where she looks better just because she connects. She only got two attacks in that did anything. Oh wait, since you keep bringing-up "aside from his sucker punches" then she only got one attack in that did anything. Nudge temporarily overcoming, blocking, whatever Crucifer's control was stated to give her an opening, so Wonder Woman under her own mental facilities sucker punched in that fight.
All thought bubbles.
NUDGE: "Maybe--this is my chance to try to MAKE UP for the mess I've made." NUDGE: "If I can 'NUDGE' him a little bit more...make him hesitate--!" SUPERMAN: "DIANA? Wh-what am I DOING?" WONDER WOMAN: "An OPENING! That MOMENT of opportunity is all I need."
So, if you don't count sucker punching, Wonder Woman got one attack that actually did anything. She punched him and sent him back. He slammed her into the environment. She kicked him to no effect. Then decapitated some vampires. Then Nudge gave her the chance to attack, in what was a sucker punch. When it comes to sucker punches, he was the only one who actually incapacitated her. No, she didn't come off looking better. Except to a Judo "black belter."

I hope I'm not wrong in assuming you can add 2 and 2.
Originally posted by Letters
He tossed her but she was far from being koed and got back up facing him.
But the point is he treated her like she's nothing. He ragdolled her and she could only stalemate him at best despite back-up from some of the JLA.

Question Delta: if Superman was mentally compromised in 219 how was he able to dodge the lasso?
Just in case ya miss it in my lengthy reply to you, Max was directing Superman there. Unless you think Diana's narrative dialogue was for shits and giggles instead of portraying writer's intent.
Originally posted by bluewaterrider
Given stories like Our Worlds At War and Hunter/Prey, if Superman didn't expect technique from Doomsday by then, he just ought of.
If you're talking throwing basic punches and stuff, then I guess he should expect technique. The most advanced he got technique-wise that I can recall was how he broke Superman's arm, which was a lot more brute strength than technique.

It is "debatable" in the sense of those who don't know better or are in denial will continue to debate it. But hey, Kitty-Kat Logic.
Originally posted by Delta1938Just in case ya miss it in my lengthy reply to you, Max was directing Superman (when Superman avoided Diana's lasso).
Max was, arguably, directing Superman throughout the bulk of the observable portions of the fight.
Note that he "obtains visual" moments before the "millions of miles" punch Superman gives Diana to direct the two back to Earth.

Ah, but you just told me you were in denial.
And you offered proof of it, too, telling me Captain Marvel kneeing Superman was advanced technique that Doomsday would not employ.
And, then of course, showing me a case of Doomsday intelligently pulling someone in to deliver a knee strike just like Diana and Billy.
Taken from Doomsday Wars, correct?
Circa 1998 and 1999.
Some 6 years before Sacrifice.

Read Diana's narration. Either that's the writer indicating what's happening, or Diana is just saying it for some reason.

You're correct. What you're unaware of is that's Brainiac in control of Doomsday(Brainiac was actually IN Doomsday, as his body died and he took over Doomsday's body). So, unless you think Doomsday absorbed Brainiac's memories after Brainy was out, that doesn't really mean anything.
