@Blue
Those scans you got from my pb are Byrne era.
I don't recall any reference saying his lift/flight feats work the same way post Byrne era. (except for all star Superman)
IIRC this way explained by Byrne was to "scientifically" explain how Superman can move large objects, with out the large object crumbling on it's own weight. At some point on an interview it was explained that he expanded his bio-aura to hold the large object together, some sort of tk (this will indicate that Superman has mental powers too), while the original lift was done with strength alone.
But like I said, this has not been used in a long time and not like it matters as his greatest lifting feats are done while on the ground and his planet moving feat was done against momentum greater then 1 m/s 😉 so, I don't think it will matter in the end.
Originally posted by bluewaterriderIt wasn't truly addressed, tbh, but the Byrne Man of Steel origin was scrapped and replaced as the official Superman origin later on, and none of the TK style of stuff was ever mentioned again. It was written out. This portrayal of Superman hasn't been used in a very long time.
As it is, though, the only thing I know significantly different about Byrne Superman is that 2000+ era Superman did not come from a Krypton where leavers of the planet suffered a quick death.
A lot of his powers still seem to operate the same way, superstrength feats still seeming to require a great deal of mental will and perhaps even some sort of tactile telekinesis (which would go a long way explaining Connor Kent, by the way). For instance, Superman can pick up massive objects that SHOULD collapse under their own weight.
Or push objects that surface area laws say he should bore straight through based on pressure.Assuming you're right about any change, in fact, I WOULD genuinely like to know how the writers you're thinking of explained these 3 facets of Superman. Muscular strength alone wouldn't do a good job of explaining ANY of these things ...
See, the thing is, we don't need to prove it ISN'T how his powers work anymore. You would need to prove that a story that was written out of continuity still counts as the explanation for his power.
In the Byrne era Superman also couldn't survive in space.
Didn't have Freeze Breath.
His powers didn't develop until later in life [where in current comics, he had them since childhood.] and was never Superboy.
Only Green Kryptonite existed. [We have the whole spectrum]
He was the only survivor of Krypton [Not true.]
We could go on for pages like this;
Pretty much everything Byrne introduced has zero impact on what came later.

To be honest, I'm a little haunted by the memory of what you did in the Superman/WorldBreaker thread, P.R.You were talking the same way then, trying to pull a fast one on Carver.
I assumed you really did not know who was in the following scan, if you recall ...

Like you didn't think he would ever find out what you did? And if that's the case how many other times have you done this before? Poor carver..

Got to say, it's rather alarming to see some of the same symptoms here, you going along with a member or members bashing Carver ("Fool's gold?"😉, asking someone to prove a point that seems evident by the comics, saying there is a counter but not producing one, referring to a mod ruling but not giving a link, though that normally seems to be standard operating procedure for you...
On top of all that, this is the first time I've seen you in disagreement with Bada. I'm sure that's happened before, but I myself don't recall seeing it.
And one thing alone would be one thing; but, all of these together ...?As it is, though, the only thing I know significantly different about Byrne Superman is that 2000+ era Superman did not come from a Krypton where leavers of the planet suffered a quick death.

Does that include vibration/counter vibration?
