MYTH

Surfer was cut into pieces and was still alive

First the evidence that the unilord saga is a What If story, here is the scene where surfer attempted to enter the unilord universe in SS v3 112

Now what is revealed later in SS v3 114 is that surfer failed to enter the unilord universe and its all a What If scenario

Now the reason why that scene can't be used as a proof that surfer can live even cut into pieces is that because HE DIED and his soul was absorbed into a blackbody and he shattered into pieces after that.

Unilord made the union and called it Black Surfer

While surfer's power was absorbed by twelve individuals which were granted his powers

http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k508/abhilegend/Marvel/SilverSurferv3117p02.jpg

The balck surfer then absorbed surfer's powers back and surfer after getting his body and soul back broke free from blackbody's control

That was one of the biggest MYTHS about surfer.

First panel of the second scan...
"And as I discovered some time ago, when I lift an object while I'm flying, there's something other than strength at work."

Myth busted.

After the retcon of superman's origin and powers in IC, which renders the old explanation of his powers that he uses TTK to lift objects so that they don't crumble under their own weight is invalid. Superman never had TTK in modern continuity, confirmed here

Mythbuster Busted.

It was never a big myth in the first place...

That said I miss Goober... 🙁

Myth

Thor lifted Midgard Serpent which was large enough to coil earth several times

Originally posted by Philosophía
What Thor did there, and what people are passing it as, is similar to me saying that Superman [and the new gods] is capable of blowing planets with his heat vision, or holding them in his hand, based on this scan, where he is in the New Gods world, interacting with the normal [main DCU] dimension:

First of all, the Serpent didn't encoil Earth in normal space, he went into the Void [notice its size in Asgard space - nowhere near continent, country or even city wide]:

That's why he is said to be in his etheral form, in the normal dimension [Earth's sphere]:

And that's why Thor needed to go to Asgard to deal with the Serpent, otherwise it would have made damage in the normal [Earth's] Universe:

Once there, Thor travels by boat in the void between Asgard and Earth [where the Serpent is] and uses a simple bull to fish it out:

http://i593.photobucket.com/albums/tt19/Max_Eisenhardt/Thor_1983_327_17.jpg

In the subsequent showdown we, again, painfully see that the Serpent is nowhere near continent/Earth sized, relative to Thor [thus the bull being used as bait, lol]:

http://i593.photobucket.com/albums/tt19/Max_Eisenhardt/Thor_1983_327_18.jpg

http://i593.photobucket.com/albums/tt19/Max_Eisenhardt/Thor_1983_327_20.jpg

It is flat-out stated that space [and time] aren't the same in the Void [as if this wasn't ridiculously obvious anyway - when Thor fishes the goddamn Serpent in a boat using a bull from its supposed Earth-sized proportions]:

In the Void [as in the New Gods world] the normal limits and proportions of time/space don't apply. That's why, eventough the Serpent was small enough for Thor to stand face-to-face with him, and get fished out with a bull, he was capable of encoiling the Earth, and crushing it with his etheral form [as seen in the normal space/time] from the Void.
It's a non-feat.
This feat has been one of the most baffling, well kept lies in the history of KMC.

😂

Not surprised.

Hm, as you said, Captain Marvel didn't start flying until Whiz Comics #5 (published June, 1940.) I'm not exactly sure when Superman officially began flying in the comic world, but I know that in Action Comics #29 (published October, 1940) Superman was still jumping/leaping, NOT flying.

...So Marvel was flying at LEAST 4 months before Supes, therefore Supes is a partial Marvel ripoff. 😛

And Namor was flying before both lol. The original flying, super strong, invulnerable super hero 😛

I'm not surprised either.

Myth:Hal Jordan's good side born as Marty beat JLA with hal's ring.

You know the green lantern fans always brought up this instance as how hal can beat entire JLA and especially superman by creating kryptonite.

What they forget to mention that it wasn't Hal's ring which did all that work, it was Parallax's power which he left in the sun.

As confirmed by Parallax here.

Its not a usable feat for Green Lanterns.

Myth Busted

Myth: Majestic rearranged the entire solar system by moving "most" of the planets.

Majestic only moved two planets, Earth and mercury to a wide orbit around Jupiter. He dismantled saturn's rings off-panel, turned Jupiter into a solid planet, gave mars a set of rings and deflected a comet to add another planet in the solar system.

That's all he did.

Myth Busted.

Myth: Thor created a vortex strong enough to contain Life Bomb which was going to destroy 1/5th of the universe.

First, the life bombs were designed to start a chain reaction which was the reason the 1/5th of the universe cease to exist.

If it was blown up pre-maturely, it didn't do anything at all. Here Photon destroys one without any problem.

Surfer destroys one

Captain America destroys one even after it was starting to go off without anything occuring

And what did Thor do when he contained the life bomb

Cut it off from the rest of the universe, thus negating the chain reaction which was the reason it would have destroyed 1/5th of the universe. Its not even remotely as impressive when seen in proper context.

Myth Busted.

It won't be long before the Thor Corps comes for your head.

Thor corps bolstered the boundaries of multiverse with a combined Godblast

First thing, Demonstaff only weakened the boundaries of realities of a single universe

Confirmed here again

How tough these walls were? Not very tough it seems

In fact BRB smashed Demonstaff's staff which was cutting through these barriers with just a hammer toss

Then the Thor Corps used their "combined" energies to bolster these walls

Here is the funny thing, that thor wasn't the present thor. It was a Thor randomly summoned from the time-stream which was overlapping already by the combined "energies" of BRB, Thunderstrike and Dargo Ktor

Its not usable for Thor and they certainly didn't bolster the boundaries of multiverse.

Myth Busted.

The four of them bolstered the walls of a universe?

That's incredible.

Yeah, that's incredible. Too bad, its not usable for thor.

I'm not a Thor fan in any sense, but is that not still the same Thor even if he's from another time? It's not an alternate reality, not a different dimension - just Thor but not from the present. I mean, if Thor was sitting around Asgard four months ago, got summoned to help, did his feat, and then went back to his place in time - it's still Thor. Or am I not seeing something?

ODG will anal-rape him to death so bad that when the Thor brigade finally arrives, they'll probably try to save him instead of taking his head.

I read those issues and I agree with Abhi.

All I see here is rampant downplaying (also lying... for example leaving out the part where Majestic split the sun into 2)
