Here I just post one or two sentences clarify here and there which is perfectly fine with me. Personally I don't care about what back and forth futile discussion you care about. I've already given you an option stop replying if it bothers you that much.

People in this thread already analyze and discuss what's being posted between us.

You don't need to scan-hunt, I'll send all of the scans to you. Even now, if you want it. With every argument you've used in this thread. I'll send the entire issues.

Because, I assume, you trust this arguments, no? Since you're using them.

We'll be 4 posts each, if you don't want to make too many "long, detailed posts". Why are those posts that long and detailed again? I mean, according to you, you're not beating around the bush, and actually providing valid arguments. Surely, it would basically be you copy/pasting your posts from here, no?

Why is Philo arguing against Superman? Sigh*

He is arguing against Superman...for Superman?

Does not compute.

🙁 I'm debating from my XBOX/Kinect.

You got one??? Whats your GT?

It's about time Superman was hyped again. I was wondering how long it was going to take. DC likely had to allow the HOTM story to cool off before attempting a come back.

My screen name is... IM BRUCELEE DAD. I have a couple of people on here on my friend list and I just want to let you all know before sending me a friend request, I am one of the most silliest you will ever meet, so be prepared.

Superman and Hulk being top dogs. All is good. Now if only Thor received a little bit of love. He should be all like "By Odin's beard I've grown weak thanks to my dependance on mighty mjolnir!" have him throw the hammer away and go on a quest to prove/improve his physicality. I dunno...something like what he said ages ago about growing weaker thanks to living with mortals and stuff. He also needs to stop trying to kill former comrades whenever he is at odds with them <_<

They really do need to do a story like this with Thor.

Thor isn't about being physically imposing the way Superman and Hulk are. There's nothing wrong with him being physically weaker than them.

They should cut it out with him getting trashed at every turn, though.

I'm not. But I've read the entirety of Superman's post-Crisis continuity, and to have people tell me that he can bench-press Earth for 5 days out of the sun and shrug it off as "meh" is even worse than saying Magneto would beat all of Galactus' Heralds simultaneously. I love the character, but that shit ain't happening as he is not even close to being that powerful.

I kind of agree, Marvel has Hulk for that, but I think something needs to be done with him. He has become a punching bag. He should be written as a more skilled fighter if he is not going to be a juggernaut/hulk-type character physically. Something like how Diana was usually portrayed in the pre-flashpoint continuity.

I agree with your stance on Thor.

Uuuummm, I can't believe this debate is still going on; no one has countered your previous argument with PR Supes vs Planetary objects. It can't get any clearer than that.

The point is these feats don't determine peer by peer comparison and any hero is capable of impossible feats in any given story this isn't exclusive to Superman, abhi.
But feats like this (feats against objects) are needed when comparing characters from different companies (Marvel and D.C.).

No, they aren't. Thor and Superman are peers this isn't any different.

Have the tears dried yet, quanshee?
It's about as ridiculous as saying that pre-DCnU Superman could bench-press Earth for 5 days, without sun, and saying "is that it?" afterwards.

You posting the scans and acting like two comics have changed the entire realm of comics shows you need to show you have a brain. I guess every comic that hits newsstands changes everything, right ? Ignore all the rest and how they match up. You haven't learned a thing in all these years, abhi.

You better hope Starlin comes back, because Thanos is basically now a glorified punching bag.

Look at him, on his knees, bleeding like a little biitch and being made fun of like the nerdy kid who got bullied.

Even a tree punched the shit out of him, lmao.

Thanos wasn't ko'd by being attacked by three teams. You act like he was clutching his throat after an inferior character just slashed it while holding back after he just failed to throw her into the sun. That's embarrassing, abhi.

The last time his weakness was used against him, Thanos had his heart pulled out by a glorified Wolverine. But even that's better than Captain America and friends sonning him to his knees. lmao

If I were you, I'd start drawing my own comics.
