from what i hear (and now see), Black adam and Captain Marvel had true invulnerability. something similar to Juggernaut. Nothing could hurt them.

thats becuz U took scans from his 2nd published appearance in DCCP #49 (in Sept '82):

and not All-New Collectors' Edition published in May 1978:

which is his FIRST meeting w/Superman.

this is current BA, PC supes gets one clean hit and it should be more than a enough to kill BA. Look at prime, hes like 20 percent of PC supes.

your telling me that SMP is only 1/5 the strength of pre crisis supes?

yeh prime isnt the ful strength of pre crisis superman. Prime hasnt been seen sneezing away planets and such other feats

we all know that superboy feat (pre-crisis superboy, not prime) of him towing a solar system worth of planets across the universe without breaking a sweat. remember this is superman when he was a boy.

Yo.

but thats only cuz we havent seen him exercise a *need* to do that, not due to him being unable to do so.

PC SM would "maybe" kill current BA
PC SM was unable to even phase PC BA with "his best blow" as the scan prep man showed

Nice job. I think BA also fought him somewhere around JLA 140. Although...that might've been against Captain Marvel, now that I think about it. Anywho, PC Supes lost his fights with PC BA, definitely. But I think its clear that he could trade blows with him. DC Presents makes that pretty evident. So I don't think Current BA, who is weaker than his PC days, is going to be able to overcome PC Supes more often than not. Even with his vulnerability to magic.

PC Supes wins 7/10 IMO.

Oh! Also, PC BA wasn't invulnerable in the sense some people take it. He was still invulnerable in the way PC Supes was invulnerable, yeah...His 'true invulnerability' days happened during his Fawcett run. After DC purchased him, they did away with that. Still kept it with Shazam, though. Mxy even gives a portion of that invulnerability field to Krull(?) which allows him to effortlessly tank PC Supes' blows without flinching.

Prime didn't even ko BA iirc.

BA = magical in nature. thus, there's no reason to assume he'd be incapable of owning pre-crisis superman as easily as grundy did, via magic-emitting punches:

BA ftw.

Good point and good scans Galan 🙂

PC-BA wasn't using magic blows like we know he is capable (coudl he do this back then) but rather physical strength when striking SM

BTW, superman isn't just going to stand around getting hit by adam.
