And out of the JLA,and L.E.G.I.O.N taking on Supes. LOBO was the ONLY one that could put up any kind of a fight in that whole battle.So I think The Main Man could take Neffy out given time. [/B]
This is a good point.
What gets lost between the lines of Superman knocking Lobo out, is how 'Bo kept fighting him and actually had him on the ropes before the volcano exploded.

I miss the 90's and the 80's. 😄
Yeah, the 90's were a fun time to be a comic book fan, with Image and Valiant in full bloom, and a comic book shop on every corner.. Not to mention the combo video game/comic shops, where everyone played games all day.
Granted, the same era also drove comic prices through the roof and they practically robbed loyal fans blind, but it was still a fun ride.
Plus cartoons like Gargoyles, Beast Wars, and all the Warner Bros's stuff.

Do you think the 80/90 are better than today?

In some ways, yeah. It'd be a pretty long rant to elaborate, but there simply isn't much worth doing in town anymore. No reason to go outside, meet people, have some fun (Unless you like drinking, that is.).. So many people would rather take advantage of free internet services and use their netbooks/Apple devices then socialize.
And if you're a kid, you may as well forget about having much fun. Nothing but coffee shops and Dunkin' Donuts, and the police officers aren't very kid friendly.. We used to have a pretty good arcade, but only half the games work now, and half the parking lot is filled with weeds.
Mind, this isn't a hick town, it's a pretty thriving suburban area.
And really, what's on TV for kids now? Avatar was good, and now it's gone. Batman: B&B is headed out the door.
And as for comic books, while an adult may enjoy Civil War or Identity Crisis, is that really something a kids going to want to read? It's kind of a downer, you know?

CN is most famous for stopping Thors hammer mid swing, and he's a pretty powerful character considering he took a beating from Thor and was still healthy enough to toss buildings at him.
Iron Man managed to hold his own for a few minutes, but only by amping his armor to it's highest levels.
No two ways about it, he's a formidable character. But with the hype he gets on some message boards, you'd think it'd take nothing short of Thanos or silver age Mangog to have a chance against him, instead of a Superman/Thor level type or even herald level.

DC's Hell has Lucifer, Neron, Lord Satanus, etc... It's pretty damn formidable.
And for what it's worth, Etrigan and a mob of demons tried kicking his rear, and got punked rather easily for their efforts..
And Alan Moore established being able to hurt a demon is something you'd need some uberness to accomplish, considering a rank and file demon was surprised when Swamp Thing hurt him with a punch, which is explained as possible because of he's a plant elemental..
