I know.
This dude was made in Galactus' image and even when depowered Galan showed him a great deal of respect for a reason.
It's silly to think that Silver Surfer could do anything that Tyrant couldn't accomplish.
Originally posted by JuntaiMy guess is that the flight rings only protect you from stuff that would be lethal to a normal human. Red sunlight is harmless to normal humans as is kryptonite radiation. Lead is also harmless. But all of those things have, in fact, affected Legion flight-ring bearers.
Here's a brain wracker for real though.
In the LEGION OF SUPERHEROS, it lists the specific powers of the Flight ring. One of the powers is that it protects them in all envirements from the effects of weather, radiation, etc. So they can survive in any atmosphere. Yet, Superman wears his all the time invisibly and Kryptonite and Red Sun radiation still affect him, despite that he often shrugs it off, it simply shouldn't happen.

Brainy might be a 12th level intelligence, but Batman would have thought of this.

Batman = Nth level intelligence. He's so smart, he can actually think and take away powers from GL continuity. Bat-kick is nothing.
I don't think people are giving the JLA their due. Fighting as individuals, Tyrant would likely walk over them, barring a miraculous Superman moment, but the JLA would be a much tougher TEAM than the one faced previously. The JLA handled situations as such often enough to show they don't simply get mopped up.

Originally posted by OneDumbG0What about the time he rubbed his hands together to close a hole in the space/time continuum that was going to possibly annihilate existance, unchecked?
Superman can rewrite GL continuity. Superbat proved it so. On. Panel. Call the Superman-fanboys, this is better than super-whistle or t-vo. dur

Tyrant, is Tyrant.As short as his appearances were, he was the first herald(In a way.).
Anything Silver Surfer etc. can do, he should be able to do effortlessly.
Tyrant has been around much longer than any other herald, is much more experienced than any other herald, and has much more power than them.
It's just common sense in my opinion.
Weak/Speculation.
