Pre-Crisis Superman vs Silver Surfer

Started by carver94 pages

Wait a minute, Tenebrous and Aegis didn't one shot Surfer, two Galactus level beings but this version of Supes can? Not happening, BUT, Superman still wins.

Since this is a forum fight and not a comic fight where a character is subject to PIS and CIS then I seriously doubt Surfer would ever get a chance to do anything like "weakness exploitation" as Superman would take him out before Surfer even realizes what's happening.
My understanding is, in forum fights, heroes fight in-character, which means CIS/PIS/whatever is present, unless otherwise specified by the OP.

PIS is off (Deathstroke tagging Flash).

CIS is still on, however (Rhino doesn't suddenly start fighting tactically).

CIP is also still on (Superman doesn't go around blitzing everyone's heads off without reason).

Thanks for the clarification (yeah, no-PIS makes sense since there's no plot in a forum fight.

CIP? Think I missed this one. CIP means ... ?

Character Inhibited Power. Superman holding back, Martian Manhunter not wanting to use his mindwhammy and lobotomising people, Surfer not destroying the entire Earth in a black hole, Hulk not going WBH at the drop of a hat.

Are you new here? I think everyone here and their mothers know what Pre-Crisis Supes feats are. You don't have to claim ppl are ignorant of his feats just because they don't think Surfer gets one shotted. Supes sneezed away a Solar System due to Mxy's magic powder. Surfer has done ridiculous things too like effortlessly open up a blackhole, evolve entire planets billions of years in seconds, time travel, ability to see the future, easily destroy Suns, survive without a body as air molecules, then reform, etc. But I do think Pre-Crisis Supes wins.

Superman didn't "do" it because he inhaled mxy's dust. He wasn't amped or anything. Why does that "myth" persists is beyond me.

An alternate universe Warlock just oneshotted Surfer albeit with a cheapshot. Pretending T&A is Surfer's average is stupid.

And Aegis did oneshot surfer in Annihilation 2.

Superman doesn't sneeze, hence the "magic dust".

It made him sneeze, and that's all it did.

Imagine giving him a couple cans of magical pinto beans? You know, because they're good for the heart.
