Superman Runs a Slugfest Gauntlet

For the record, Superman has plenty of crazy victories without needing the added power boost of a sundip. The man is "Slugfest King" for a reason.

1. Martian Manhunter- Tough fight, but the OP screwed J'onn over. He needs most of his powerset to beat Kal. Without his shifting and other powers, he can't win.
2. Wonder Woman- Same problem. She can't go toes with him, but her sheer skill makes it a good match, but a bit one sided.
3. Captain Marvel- Classic fight. Many people say the magic thing is the clincher, but they would need to also remember that Superman has a tendency to just power through things. Good fight all the same.
4. Black Adam- Same as above, but BA has the flaw of being a hothead. More ruthless, but not as tactical as Superman, though his trick of spamming the Shazam bolt is a doozy. Superman can beat him, but he'll be a bit busted up.
5. Kurse- Hard to call. Kurse is a slug, but given the punishment this guy took, Superman may have to wear him down. He's not going to touch Superman, but unless Superman has some iron, this could take awhile.
6. War Hulk- No version of Hulk can beat Superman. Not if Superman actually uses his powers.
7. Thanos- A brick easily on par with Superman, but this is Superman's arena. And once again, speed kills. Technically, Thanos can levitate, so flight should be ok.
8. Onslaught's physical form- The OP strikes again! 😛 Onslaught did not demonstrate anywhere near the power to fight Superman in fisticuffs.
9. Mindless Hulk- Epic lulz at anyone who thinks a totally brain-dead Hulk has more of a chance than the rest of this gauntlet.

I said earlier he can clear it. None of these guys are beyond his ability to beat. A day of rest will help him heal pretty fast. He might stop at Adam, but if he gets past there, he's clearing it. The rest of the gauntlet is simply too damn slow. Incidently, no exotic powers? Does that mean he can't use enhanced senses or perception? Or vibrate to intangibility?

I agree with your post, for the most part anyhow, but he needs more then a days rest. CM and ba are going to fuc supes up , but id still give it to supes against cap. BUt a day later against BA.

Supes to this day has not been able to beat BA. HE needs more time to heal give him a week mabey, a day is not enough.

Supes has the benefit of incredible MA talent,awesome striking power,fantastic durability and of course super speed. Very few characters can compete competently agaisnt supes h2h, in this paritcular gauntlet he clears it.

Superman is stopped cold at 3 or 4.

How does he beat Black Adam?

Speed, like I said supes has all the conditions built for being the ultimate h2h/KO artist.

He's gonna blitz BA?

lmao.

Are you serious?

Yup, forum rules stipulate supes fights at peak condition.

Do you know anything about BA?

Yup, I know he doesn't use speed in combat and I know Supes does...anything esle?

No weapons or exotic powers allowed here. When Supes faces non-flyers, he cannot fly, but can do so against anyone else.

He gets a day of rest in between fights. How does he fare?

1. Martian Manhunter
2. Wonder Woman
3. Captain Marvel
4. Black Adam
5. Kurse
6. War Hulk
7. Thanos
8. Onslaught's physical form
9. Mindless Hulk

stops at 2-3

Uhh....you do realize that Adam's gone toe to toe with Supes before, right? I don't think Teth's combat speed should be in question.

Why not, if he can't even lay a hand on him then....well yeah if factors in a lot.

Marvel clan?

Jay Garrick is from DC.

Except he has. Teth's been able to fight the likes of Captain Marvel, Superman, Martian Manhunter, and the Flash (Jay). He doesn't lack for combat speed.

Black Adam keeping up with Flash:
