Faith? Wrong word to use because that's pretty much what the OE does, Lobo being unkillable wouldn't matter if he was erased from existence i.e. utterly removed from all space-time.
Originally posted by AllanklesIt failed against DD showing it just wasn't powerful enough to do so. You can't ignore the times it failed.
PIS. DD has no defense for the OE, that only applies to characters like Mxy who are more powerful (WF) and heroes like Superman deemed vital to universal balance.Not that Supes can't be killed, he simply can't be erased from all space-time.

Separate stories have identified Superman as being vital to cosmic balance. Also more specifically DS has in the past manipulated his beams to affect Superman's kryptonian physiology, down to the molecular level (bypassing his durability essentially) and Superman survived. Barring PIS there can only be one reason why he survives such encounters with the OBs as the OE, he is vital to cosmic balance.
It would be a copout for the author, if he gave that as a specific reason for why Supes would survive even after the OB were specifically designed to destroy Supes' physiology, it would downplay his/the heroic perserverance. But logically there are only two possible reasons: PIS (which I don't like) and his cosmic importance (which I like).
Besides we've seen cosmic importance save DS' bacon against Spectre's incineration. So... 😉

Superman survives like any hero because he is the hero there's no proof he can't die as it would throw off the cosmic balance in this regard.
