Not really.

If I lift half of infinity, how much did I lift? Half of infinity, which is still infinity.

If you do it by yourself, you lifted the sum of infinity, which is still infinity.

What you did is more impressive on the surface, but in reality, that doesn't make what you lifted more impressive.

But you'd cling to any thing to downplay Superman, so I could care less.

If Superman could still lift infinite weights even though he lifted half of it...why did he need Captain Marvel help if he could have possibly soloed the ft? You are not making sense buddy.

This isn't about "just" Superman, this is about Captain Marvel, Superman, and Ultraman. Neither of them lifted infinite weight. The argument would be much clearer if the book wasn't magical. If you look at the scene, they don't even have their hands on the book, its grabbing the protective spell that is surrounding the book.

It was an unquantifiable and logically impossible high end feat.

No one is arguing otherwise.

But it still happened.

so then why even discuss it or claim that superman lifted infinite?

just say he lifted a magical object with no quantifiable weight...but it certainly is not infinite.

so you think superman has infinite strength lmfao....yet you see him on par with thor in strenght 😂 😱

try to be consistent jake

I already said I don't think Superman has infinite strength as a rule. It was, again, an extremely high end feat.

9 times out of 10, yeah, Superman's strength will be on the same level as people such as Thor and Hulk.

Try not to be stupid.

That kid who lifted the Never Ending Story is just as strong as Ultraman!

jake, you are contradicting yourself. you say its an unquantifiable feat and then say its an extremely high end feat, how do you know if its unquantifiable how high a feat it is?

also, if the book was infinite weight, then captain marvel's help would not have sufficed.
This is a comic book. A comic book pertaining specifically to Superman's awesomeness. A comic book where it was explicitly stated Superman is > ALL... And you're questioning whether or not he could preform a particular feat? Gimme a break. srsly

Sidenote: what "book bindings" are you referring to?

I dunt see ne..?

so what is your stance? that superman has limitless strength or that we should disregard the feat?

Man, here I was thinking that tge Dark Dimension was a mystical dimension where the laws of physics do not apply-i.e a magical realm.

As for the pages being weightless, as it was a magic book....lol lets all take a step back and listen to ourselves, people! Whats wrong with taking it at face value - he lifted infinite weight? Because it makes no sense, but that its a magical book and therefore has weightless pages makes more sense????

Are you going to show me some fts or what? I'm waiting for some lifting fts.

You didn't even read Final Crisis or its tie ins, so what does it matter?

The nature of the feat defies logic and reason. Trying to make sense of it is an exercise in futility. For the purposes of that scene and the arc as a whole, Superman's strength was portrayed as being beyond limits. That's what it was. If you want to drive yourself crazy with the idea that "Oh, Gamma Gods! Superman has a feat that craps all over the Hulk's!" and fall into a deep depression because of it, that's your perogative.

Me, I take that feat for what it is and realize that it was incredibly far out of the norm for Superman and as such, isn't worth bringing up in debates, unless we're specifically asking for the best all time lifting feats.

Which is what we're doing here.

I'm waiting for Starcarv to talk about Ultraman reading the end of an infinite book with infinite pages

Hulk is stronger than Nul..that's all that really matters in my eyes.
So agree that Nul's feats don't count.

jake, its either a legitimate feat or its not. you cant pick and choose when you bring it up.

if you think its legitimate, then superman is on a strength tier with no peers.

if you don't think its legitimate, then you shouldnt bring it up even in a feat war thread.

It's both a high end feat in that it's well and beyond above anything else Superman has done strength wise and unquantifiable because we can't measure infinity.

Do yourself a favor, though.

Think of the single biggest number you possibly can. Think long and hard about it.

Do you have it?

Superman lifted more than that.

Taking his other feats from that story/FC into account, my conclusion is that Marv/Supes threw logic out the window and lifted infinity...

So we are done with that topic. Now show me some lifting fts please.

Superman lifted more than that.

so how does this jive with your thinking then that superman and thor are peers

or does the same apply for thor to you as well...that any number I can think of, he can lift?

Firstly, It's a hyperbolic feat for one. Secondly, that Marvel is a peer based on this feat. Based on this feat Ultraman is stronger than both since he did it himself.

Thirdly, how aren't you getting this ?

Fourthly, now do you realize these feats never proved superiority in strength anyways.

In Pr and your eyes, the ft doesn't count.

It doesn't count to you either because he has a war hammer and was amped in the story.
