The comic makes it very clear that the energy inside Monarch is very violent, struggling to escape, and when his suit is ruptured, it does, and he goes boom.
To tear open his suit, wouldn't Superman Prime theoretically need to possess physical power exceeding that of the energy of the Big Bang?
I can't recall, has anyone else breeched the suit?
You're looking at it from a 'strength feat" PoV. I'm looking at it from a 'durability' PoV. That's what impressed me most about it. Team 1 COMBINED simply isn't capable of that kind of power output. So if a weakening SMP can survive a blast like that, what chance does Team 1 have if he starts the fight fresh?
