I see it like this, the story was meant for Superman to win and in my eyes I dont see anything wrong with Superman winning BUT for a majority, not happening.

Another thing, Superman used his powers in that fight where thor didnt use 1% of what he had. He did more swinging than anything whereas Supes used his heat vision in like 2 to 3 full panels.

he has more than heat vision.

thin ice, dude.

He does have more PR, but not much more... Were aren't talking about a super versatile character here.

he does a whole lot more with his powerset than one might think. nobody is saying he's as versatile as Thor, though. Obviously not.

Super cold breath puts thor down.. 🙄 look at what it did to WW and she is above thor in durability.. 😛

aryan viking gods have poor resistance to cold that is why ice giants are their enemies true story.

Superman doesn't need anything else.

All anybody needs is speed, flight, range attacks, and melee.

Couldn't you also assume the opposite? What story held this fact?

He said that it was the right outcome for the story and I agree, it was.

Again, I'm not mad at the fact that Superman won in that comic because he's Superman but a second time, not happening. Especially if you put everything up front and actually see what each characters have at their disposal.

Thor hitting power is much more impressive.
Thor versatility is much more impressive.
Thor overrall damage soak is much more impressive.
Thor is the better fighter.

And I always see it like this, the people that has dropped Supes, Thor has fought similar beings and crushed them.

The only reason I give Superman some wins over thor is because of Supes speed in which he rarely use. I'm not impressed by some of the speed feats that is put up by Thor fans but I do know that he can tag Supes and I also know that once he does, its going to hurt.

But to each his/her own.

prove that thor was holding back and that superman went all out on him even with the fact that superman only punch him once and didnt use nothing else
I think both wanted to win but neither were going all out.

So you don't have any proof that Thor forgot anything.

Concession accepted.

Also, your attempt to derail this into Supes/WW discussion to lead away from your ridiculous argument is duly noted.

You can note whatever you want. I gave an example of his punches without him holding back. Are you suggesting Superman did something nefaria hasn't?

PLease, try to be a little more accurate. Your entire post is absurd. I don't know how anyone can take it seriously. It's one thing to act as if it's your opinion, and another to claim it's a fact. Read some Superman comic books, or look at this respect if you don't have the time. Read, understand, and ask people questions.

After Martian Manhunter Superman is arguably the most versatile core member of the JLA. He's got strength, speed, heat vision, limited phasing, freeze breath, non-freezing super-breath, x-ray vision, microscopic vision, and super-hearing.
