OK, First off, Johny Storm “NOVA BLAST” is not actually a Nova, this has been stated several times.
If I remember correctly it was stated to be at 12,000 Fahrenheit or 18,000 Fahrenheit. At most it is A SOLAR FLARE.
Now Superman on the other hand:
He survives the Electromagnetic discharge of 50 Supernovas, 1 electric discharge of 1 supernova is enough to collapse a star. He endure the equivalent of 50 After getting bombarded with red sun light:

There is no adamantium in DC universe, so the best I can do is point out Superman NEARLY breaking DIANA’S bracelets (She actually stated this) and also bending Diana’s bracelets to the point of breaking her hand.
He also broke Doomsday’s protrusions that have withstand time and space shattering forces.

Do you still think Gladiator is more powerful than Superman?
I only saw one department in which Glad looked better, which was flexing his muscles to break Quasar’s construct, but a lot of people will agree that High level GL’s like John or Gardner are > Quasar
So I posted my evidence, now where's yours?
Lolololol...
Its pointless to post anything regarding what you just posted. All of your scans (90% of them...) comes with a plot.
Originally posted by PillarofOsiris
don't ALL scans "comes with a plot"?
Depends... I'm referring to your scans having nothing to do with what you are saying and you can't compare the two (gladiator feats and your scans).
Example... you stated that Superman tanked a blast that had enough power t shed a galaxy... in your scan it states that the only thing that hit him was the shock waves and the blast came at him at light speed and he out paced it.
The rest of your scans also comes with the same plot... nothing what you are implying.

Carver...The guy showed a vast amount of scans for both Glads and Supes, scans which demonstrate their ability/power. What more do you want?
And I am proud of him for doing that... I was actually impressed when he did that.
I'm not saying that he did a bad job, he actually did very good but I can go through each of them and give reasons on why they are not comparable to each other.
He did good sorting them out and in a hour in a half from now... I am going to debate and post scans proving my case (he is challenging me).
But good job pillar.

😉
Except, as I said, it's feasible for Quasar to use super speed given that he's a cosmic high herald awesome character who has gone faster than light his entire career. 😉

Space flight?
Yep, but superspeed is the same power than superspeed, Quasar wasn't inventing a new one when he used reaction speed, we only consider it something different because travel speed tends to be related with the plot most of the time; in Quasar's case is more than just random plot, since he's a space faring character.
methinks this should have been taken to the supes/glads thread. pillar you should post that stuff in that thread. it was well done. won't convince anyone who already has their mind made up, but someone who genuinely isn't sure might be able to look at it rationally and see that what is pretty obvious to most.
jla still stomp in this thread.
