I just don't think it's right to assume he can turn the size he was shown in new gen with superman and assume he has that kind of strength either. just think about it, when superman and orion were looking at those planets they were the size of marbles to orion and superman if orion just had normal strength on new gen (which he doesn't it's been show he has super strength their too) then if he just lightly punch one of those planets the would destroy them. when on earth orion has punched the ground and has went all out. yet he didn't destroy the planet. why not????? my view mother box depowers or rescales people
You could be right. There is no real evidence, but like I said, Simonson was going to produce a story of Orion's true godly self, but it was never made, sadly.
Note, Orion does hold back A LOT. He even stated that he had to lower his energy output, so he wouldn't kill Superman and destroy the planet.
In the Teen Titans/JLA crossover, Orion's battle on the moon nearly destroyed earth as a SIDE EFFECT! He was litterally creating global scale earthquakes as a result. Now that's power.
