Superman vs Sinestro: 3 Rounds

Superman

VS

Thaal Sinestro

Sinestro has both a Green Lantern ring and a Yellow ring. Full power and no depletion of energy will occur for these fight.

3 fights:

1) They fight in a Green Lantern comic book

2) They fight in a Superman comic book

3) They fight a KMC forum sanctioned battle

Will the Terrormonger strike fear into the Kryptonian? Will the Man of Steel knock out the scourge of the universe? FIGHT!

1.) Sinestro.
2.) Probably a split or the fight will end inconclusively with the edge to Sinestro.
3.) Depends.

Would having a green and yellow ring together really make him more powerful, or is it just redundant?

Legit question

About as more powerful as giving a second gun to someone who already has one (bigger scale of course, but same concept).

wheres that superman pic from...he looks so badass

Would it? If Sinestro makes a fist construct would he make 2? One that's twice as strong?

I'm trying to think of instances where someone's had multiple spectrum rings on at the same time.

Guy rocked Red/Green in Blackest Night, but I can't recall if he interchanged use of them or if the power was combined. Kyle had every ring at the beginning of New Guardians, but had no feats...

Guy was using a red knife on one hand and a green knife in the other - demolishing black lanterns. But I saw his effectiveness being due to the black lanterns weakness.

Depends on?

Depends on the stips of the forum battle, location, etc.

Default forum battle.

I'll have to take a look when I get home, but I think you're right.

Having one yellow knife in one hand and a green knife in the other shouldn't be any more effective against Superman than two yellow knives or two green knives (made by the same ring).

No they dont scale. If anything it makes certain, Sinestro can use the entire history, and feats as oppose to specifying Green or Yellow rings.

The purpose was to open up his entire history. And I do think Jake's answer applies: there is a slight power bump but it's not a full scale power add-on. Though, in John's run it seems having more than one ring makes you more powerful. Take it how you will.

1. Sinestro.
2. Superman eventually (he'd lose their first meeting but win when it counts).
3. Superman.

I'm not sure what sinestro having another ring would do for him when superman tanked his, atrocitus' and larfleeze's explicit killing attacks without flinching.

Black Lantern Superman =/= Superman, though.

And if he's already "dead", him not dying from Sinestro, Atrocitus, and Larfleeze attacking in concert isn't much of a feat that you can apply towards regular Superman.

Having more than one ring makes you more powerful. There's ample evidence of that. Just none that suggests that two rings makes you twice as powerful.

If this is current versions, as the pictures suggest, Sinestro takes all three. And he'd take all three without needing an extra ring or an unlimited charge. He's more powerful than he's ever been, including his pre-DCnU history. And current Superman, frankly, is not.

His durability wasn't amped like all BLs. He wasn't even scratched by that combined assault let alone the possibility of dying and sinestro was shown "killing" BLs left and right.
