First off, despite what many people think Superman isn't "weak" to magic. He's VULNERABLE to it. If you want proof, I can provide many scans. I have scans of Superman resisting magical transmutation, etc. It affects him just like it affects the Hulk. Secondly, even if he was "weak" to it normally, this is sundipped Superman, and sundipped superman, even for a brief sundip, IMO > SBP. And thirdly, between NORMAL superman being stronger than the Hulk (and yes, that's a fact), and MUCH MUCH faster, yes he does better than the Hulk.
No real distinction there. Magic =/= kryptonite, sure. In terms of how it specifically works, sure.
You subject him to a barrage of magical blasting, he dies through pure physical attrition. You subject him to a barrage of red sun energy blasting, he loses his powers first and then dies through physical attrition. You subject him to a barrage of kryptonite blasting, he dies through toxic poisoning.
Other characters like Surfer or Captain Marvel tank that shit and fight through it (the latter two without any problem). So it's something of a distinction without a difference really.
And feats of resisting magical transmutation/jhypnosis have to do with strong will. Nothing different than something Cap would do. Superman's been easily transmuted before too, just like Cap.
Sundipped Superman being stronger or faster doesn't pertain to my post. At all.
