Originally posted by Rage.Of.OlympusI'm simply using your opinions to reach a conclusion-- a conclusion I cannot agree with, mind you.
I don't want Citizen Steel to be operating at 50% power, I'm just telling you what was printed in the comic, you can use that to reach any conclusions that you want.
Your stance is that at 50% power, CS is >> Superman(which means he is >> Thor, by proxy.) Thus at 100% power, CS would logically have to be more than 2x more powerful than Superman and/or Thor-- thus he should be on par with Kurse by default(unless this is the version of Kurse that Beyonder amped twice.)
...Do you see why it's hard for me to accept that the suit dampens his power by 1/2? That opens up the door for CS to potentially be far stronger than ANY herald or trans-tier character in DC-- which I simply don't believe he is.
But hey, if you want to boost him to those levels, then far be it from me to stop you. 😉

I didn't say it weakened him, I said it damaged his artificial body, which it did:

Fast-forward a few more pages(when Superman pulled his head off), and none of that damage still appears to exist on Gog's person:
Gog sustained 'damage' from Atom's attack, healed in the span of a single page(even his clothing was repaired), and was floored by CS. Easy, right? 🙂
