Yep, you do love how certain things count and certain things don't. It's exactly what you're doing right here. And often do.

What am I saying doesn't count ? I am saying it all counts and going by that Thor and Superman are comparable in terms of durability.
I'm talking about how you're dismissing an interview when it doesn't help your case, and clinging to one when it does.
Can you say, "Hypocrite?" Here, I'll help. "Hip-Oh-Crit."
Originally posted by Delta1938The interview doesn't help your case either. Bendis doesn't answer the question so we go by what we see on panel. MM was defeated by the Void. Pretty simple, guy.

It was pretty clear on panel that MM was being overpowered by Sentry at his own game... Pretty F'n impressive.
Originally posted by -Pr-My examples are of a writer taking a stance. Bendis played it safe by not really answering the question. The only way he said Superman beats Doomsday is if he throws his morals/upbringing out the window. That rarely if ever happens.
Pity you don't apply that attitude in general.

What would Bendis know about Superman?
Originally posted by -Pr-No, I am saying when I use the Jurgens example about Doomsday he answered the question. In the bendis example he did no such thing.

Originally posted by DeadlineI don't think that is the purpose of the thread. I think he is taking Void's mindset during siege and pitting him against just Superman with no help.
I guess Superman wins if you mean the same series of events that happen to Thor happen to Superman.

It doesn't make a difference though. Writer intent can only be used to back up something on panel; not replace/contradict it.
Originally posted by -Pr-His intent wasn't contradicted on panel. The reason Superman is at a disadvantage goes along the lines of his moral code/upbringing. It's always been a weakness for him. In OWAW Superman going all out he was matching Doomsday.

That's not the instance I was referring to, even if I disagree.
