Carver, shut up. If you have anything to add, add it. Otherwise, like I said, cut it out. That whole "melting heralds" thing is bullshit, as we know it wouldn't melt Superman, or Thor, or Surfer etc ad nauseum.Abhi, not ALL pre-crisis stories are canon. If something is referenced, then that story happened. It's not a blanket allowance.
Nice post Philo.
Stop whining, Starscream.

@Pr...Do you think Superboy Prime and Superman can punch each other so hard that they can melt 2 low Heralds and one Elite Herald?
If they're z-list heralds that nobody really gives a shit about and they're just there to serve the story, sure.

I legitimately can't believe the lengths that some people are going in this thread to discredit on panel proof.
Well, okay, I can believe it. It's just incredibly sad and self-serving.
Midgard Serpent varies in size as it manifests on Earth. The time that Thor tossed it, it had obviously manifested in a way that it effected the entire planet. The last couple of times the serpent showed up, it had no such effect on the planet. This really isn't rocket science or difficult at all to understand.

Of course. He went through the same test, TWICE, and they couldn't find a limit to his strength...stated he had unlimited potential. This was done by Savage Hulk, the stronger Hulks isn't even needed. This is about Thor though, we need proof he can do it.

Can't find that exact one, but here's one that perfectly shows it's size :
That isn't to bad considering this.
Notice that even on panel it doesn't show still the full length or the end of the serpent so it still matches that the length can conceivably wrap around the planet as seen prior.
And that's the kicker I imagine. In all the other ones it doesn't show the ending part of the tail to take away from the one that shows the serpent can wrap around the planet. That's just what I got out of it.

Lol...we both know you don't believe this since there isn't one shed of proof for this statement to be true.
We both know I'm right. You just won't admit it, as usual.
Tell you what, though: Let's replace those shitty "heralds" of yours, with characters people actually give a damn about...
Like say, the Annihilators. No, wait, I said characters people cared about...
Anyway, the Annihilators. They're watching the battle instead of those "heralds" you like to go on about. How many of them would get melted?
Also, I love how statements about "unlimited power" only seem to be valid to you when they're about characters that you like.

lolwut, you've effectively latched onto an attempt to "bust" a non-myth.
The Midgard Serpent varies in size and length depending on how it manifests on the planet. The instance Zop showed, which was a dead Midgard Serpent, didn't even come remotely close to being the same thing as the one that Thor removed from the planet. Nor was the one that manifested itself in Thor: Disassembled. At least on panel. For all we know, it could be in its "globe encircling" size as it referred to as the Midgard Serpent, but it wasn't shown in the comic nor did it achieve the same effects as before, so I wouldn't personally claim it was, but its not impossible.
Using examples of those where the serpent clearly isn't shown to encircle the globe as evidence as to why Thor lifting it is a non-feat is pretty ridiculous to say the least. And the argument concerning the difference between Asgard and Midgard to be the same as the difference between normal DC reality and that of the New Gods is laughable. It is completely not the same thing at all.
I never personally attempted to quantify the Midgard Serpent as calculating the weight is a test in futility, to say nothing of the resistance such a creature would exert. But to go to the lengths as to render it a non-feat? 😂
Really not surprised, unfortunately.

Do you have the actual feat to hand?
