facepalm

I should report you now. For anybody interested here is the full scan. This rivals your hal/hulk fiasco.

@ABHI...

You don't see the difference in easily pushing a planet and straining to do it. His strength was all over the place. At one point, they could carry numerous of planets with ease and at another point, they were struggling. You need to report yourself.

He was depowered since those days. You cropped a scan indicating that superman was struggling while moving earth a few inches while he was moving it faster than light across lightyears. At least show some shame about caught red-handed.

Irony.

The point of my scan was to show STRAIN, nothing he showed before while moving planetary bodies. I don't care if he moved it or not, what I care about is him showing his struggle doing it. Where in my post did I say he didn't move it? It's freaking obvious he did, it was the purpose of the comic.

I think you should have posted a far lesser strength feat if you wanted to show his strength was all over the place.

Do you disagree with his message ?

Why? You have one showing where they are carrying 100's of planets around the galaxy without strain, then you have another showing where Superman is having trouble moving Earth into a portals grab.

Because he was moving it at light speed? He was still moving a celestial body. Maybe if you had shown him struggling with a mountain or a building it would have driven the point home. To me him struggling moving the earth at light speed and towing 10 planets around are not that far apart.

When you said his strength was all over the place I didn't expect to see a scan of him still moving a planet. But that is just me I suppose.

Is this the same Supes that was getting rocked by Ali?

Are you really going to cite that like it was a serious fight ?

It was a boxing match and iirc Superman was getting hurt by Ali

No one wants to talk about Super Telepathy? My point, she is made.

Do you honestly think that represents Supermans entire history accurately ? You sicken me that I have to come to the aid of Superman while his fans just sit there.

Jake take control of this ship.

A shame I bungled the chimp thing. Had I known, I would've used a different example. Context is everything, of course. But anyway, I've said what I wanted to.

Depends on if you think Earth 2 Superman is Golden Age Superman or not.

There's some good arguments for why Earth 2 Supes and Golden Age/Original can't be the same character, due to history discrepancies and some other differences. (Earth 2 Supes never had Lex Luthor, for example,. but Alexi Luthor, while the Lex Luthor we know was born in the golden age era.).

It's internally inconsistent, no doubt. I'm not sure I've ever heard this theory, though. If that's the case, things are even more convoluted, and either version of PC Supes would still have some wildly fluctuating showings.

Interesting theory, though, thanks for mentioning it.

He was depowered since those days. He was moving planets like ping pong balls in 60's, then he got depowered in 1971 and was reduced to moving a single planet with some strain.

If he was depowered then you can't pick and choose which feats to accept and which to ignore. Even by your on logic you can't have it both ways.

Didn't know that. I would ask you to post a scan proving it (since Rage has been ripping you apart) but I'm going to trust you on this one since I've heard this more than once.
