In the letters page Liefeld was asked the question of how well would Supreme of Image Comics hold up in a fight with the X-Men's Colossus, and he stated that [b]"no man of steel could ever compare to Supreme" which was his way of stating that Supreme was written to be superior not only to Colossus, but to Superman as well.He went on to co launch the title that had Supreme battle Gladiator, and again it stated on panel that Supreme was two times more powerful than Gladiator, which at that time, Gladiator was Superman of another universe.
Among Supreme's feats, there is one that sticks out in my memory, and was told in Supreme issue 1 vol.1. During an off panel battle, Supreme caused a whiteout effect to blanket the Earth, while battling a formidable opponent in deep space. Later on in the series he is seen fighting Image Comics version of Thanos who had these crazy tech shields that allowed for him to remain visible while actually being partially fazed into another dimension (these events take place in issues 4-6). Supreme manages to physically rip through this supposedly impenetrable shield, and crush the Thanos ripoff. However the strain of ripping through this barrier caused his flesh to melt off at a rate that surpassed his regenerative powers (this was a pretty decent willpower, and durability feat for Supreme).
Like I said in an earlier post, I don't believe that Superman, Thor, or Black Adam are two times more powerful than Gladiator. Supreme easily defeated Image Comics version of Thor who appeared to have the same powers as Marvel Comics Thor. This happened twice. In their second battle Supreme soundly defeats Images Thor, and goes on to claim his hammer as his own. Outside of blind loyalty to the characters on Team 1, I just can't see how they would win this. Attached to this is a scan of the Thanos clone. [/B]
