Is that because he is that powerful or because he always comes out on top?
But they aren't the same thing though, which is the point. Superman always wins, that is what he does. He beats people stated in the comic that are beyond him in power. How can they be beyond him in power.. yet somehow.. the writer meant beyond him in power.. unitl he taps in the that "mystery source" of power forgotten about when narration after narration states this foe is beyond him? You would have a point if superman lost at the end of the day in 1/4 of the comics he appears in.. howerver the fact is, when he wins in virtually every comic he is in when it's all over, makes this "when the gloves come off" theory not possible and the he wins because he is THE hero of DC and has to win to save the universe the more likely explanation.
