DCNU Superman VS Kurse

I think Superman already knows just about everything about every mythology and religion on earth. I actually consider it a safe bet that Superman knows a great deal about anything that humans have access to. He's already way past any leading human-mind in most sciences.

Only problem is that Superman doesn't know that Kurse is a black elf, because of the suit that he's stuck in. He doesn't look like anything out of norse mythology. If Superman knows that he's a dark elf however, it's a quick finish 🙂

Some kids in power pack knew it enough to beat him by depositing him in some iron.

They temporarily stopped him, but had no idea that it was because of the Iron.

Later, energizer had to virtually drain mjolnir and stormbreaker of all their energies in a hope to knock him out.

That's a mighty assumption that he knows everything about mythology and religion more so with the recent trinity war (part 1) where he had to ask 'pandora?' And needed wonderwoman to explain it to him and then didn't even believe. Nevermind him somehow having knowledge of a species he never met..and if he did research/meet dark elves they will most likely not have the same strengths, weakness and characteristics of marvel dark elves so that knowledge will mostly be useless.

Why is the iron weakness even brought up? How in the hell is Superman going to know about it? They fight and Kurse wins. Its that easy.

I don't think it's "common knowledge" that Kurse is a dark elf. From the way he looks, you'd be hard pressed to even know what kind of creature he is. Maybe an armored version of "Animal" from the muppets. 😛

People just don't get it. Where is Superman getting Iron from? There isn't a single item on the battle field. Wait, Superman has matter manipulating abilities, he will conjure up some Iron (WTF). This is a straight up fight...there is no Iron or Kryptonite on the battlefield. With that said, Kurse stomps.

if he knows what kurse is and knows mythology (not magic btw) then I guess he could know fae have a historical weakness to iron.

How does superman even know he's an elf?

Kurse re enacts himself snubbing thor our like a cig, but this time supes

Uh huh!^

Superman's invulnerable hair will damage Kurse's foot if he tries that move.

Kurse clearly wins. Superman minus the iron has no shot.

Does DC comics even have any Dark Elves?

Reread the issue. He says, "Pandora? As in the Greek myth?" so he is clearly familiar with it. That said, yes it is a stretch he would know that the fae are weak to iron from myths. Plus it is likely meaningless as there is no iron on the BF.

Fae? How the hell would he even know that? Kurse doesn't look remotely like anyone else. And Superman is not Sheldon from Big Bang Theory.

I'm wrong.

I was locked in pre-dcnu Superman 😉

BFR options
Also if this is high end Superman then he can just knock him out

HV may work though

Other than that I don't see Superman winning.

In conclusion, Kurse wins unless either of the following happens
1. BFR
2. HV can affect Kurse greatly
3. Superman has high end strength

😂
