Battle of the Supermen!

Due to a time/space anomaly several alternate versions of Clark Kent find themselves in the ruins of what was once the Kent farm in Smallville Kansas with no memory of how they arrived. Each blames the others for the destruction of their home town and they fight.

Superman(Cavill)
Superman(Reeve-1,2,3,4)
Superman(Routh-1,2, Returns)
Clark Kent(Smallville series minus the planet launching feat)

Bonus Round: Same deal except Smallville Clark keeps his planet tossing power and is trying to kill the others. The other Supermen are working together now.

Smallville Clark likely beats the shit out of all of them, that guy was so fast it wasn't even funny.

I think Reeve and Routh have him in speed

Me too.

Routh Superman was light speed.

Reeve Superman circled the earth like 30 times in a second.

Strength-wise end game Smallville Supes has the best feat, but Reeve Superman can most likely do the same.

Edit Lets try and quantify how was Cavillman was.

Anyone?

He was at least supersonic but nowhere near light imo. Smallville Clark was probably faster than Cavill

Moved per request.

FYI, Dean Caine Superman pwns all. 😐

Thanks for the move

DAMMIT HOW COULD I FORGET ABOUT DEAN!!!????

Sucks that Cavill is probably the weakest of the Supermen even though he had the best fights outof all of them 😐

Smallville Supes would beat the others silly though an argument could be made for Reeve's Superman.

reeve and routh are the same superman as per film canon.

stupid, i know. but fact none the less.

From how it looked like in MOS, it seemed like the Kryptonians could only move in bursts of speed. Like once they move, they end up in their destination with extreme speed, but they don't seem to be capable of other superspeed movements. Like you don't see them delivering super fast punches or dodging around bullets like Matrix Agents. Once moving in superspeed, you don't see them correcting their course and zig zagging in super speed.

I remember reading a book, I think it was a book with Drizzt Do'urden, wherein he wore these speed bracers that made his hands (and swords) extremely fast. Problem was his mind couldn't keep up so he could swing a sword very fast but once committed to the action he couldn't alter the course of the swing or adjust the blow. My theory is that it's the same with the kyptonians. They commit to a movement, use superspeed in making that movement, then if they have to change movements they stop and make the other movement. Kinda like Faora went through those soldiers. She didn't just zip through them and knocked them all out without them seeing her. She'd zip to one, punch him out, zip to another, punch him out, etc.

The split occurs with Superman III and Superman Returns which is why i clarified in the OP. Both can use feats from 1 and 2 but only Routh has feats from Returns and Reeve has feats from III and IV

Reeve and by extension Routh, have on-demand powers; that's a bonus in a fight.

Cavill is the lowest here.

How fast do you have to be to go from metropolis to space and back in a few seconds?

Really depends how far out. The Exosphere which is the last layer of atmosphere starts at about 400 miles out and ends at about 62,000 miles.

Smallville Clark was lightspeed.

Cavill has one major advantage though: He's willing to kill.

He'll be koed before he gets a chance.

Not really.

Cavill's Superman will kill when he's put in an extreme position of 'kill someone or risk them butt-raping humanity'.

Reeve's Superman will kill someone that's no longer a threat while mocking them like a total dick.
