Can Superman solo the JLA

No prep. Midtown Manhattan. Start distance one city block.

Pre Crisis:
Wonder Woman
GL Hal
Flash Barry
Martian Manhunter
Aquaman
Batman

Post Crisis:
Wonder Woman
GL Kyle
Flash Wally
Martian Manhunter
Bearded Aquaman
Batman

NU52:
Wonder Woman
GL Hal
Flash Barry
Cyborg
Aquaman
Batman

My guesses

Yes

No

No

I think that he could if he took out the largest threats first. There's no prep involved so I'd give him a 70% chance of taking this if he really tried.

In all honesty, if Supes was pissed, he could just destroy the planet around them and then just worry about MM, WW, and GL. I think he takes all three.

I've got one piece of advice for superman if he takes the league on: don't turn your back on bats and let him strategize...

Good advice.

Barry solos.

No across the board, imo, but that's not really a knock on him. The fact that the question can be asked is telling enough of his status.

In a comic he would do well but eventually go down. On the forum, the team stomps him. Pre Crisis Superman wins though.

Current Mecha Batman is a match for High Herald/Trans tier

Here's better advice: kill off the Batman writers.

Pre COIE absolutely. MMH was a second rate Superman not as strong, not as fast, not as durable who hardly ever used any of his other powers and was a cream puff to fire.

All you had to do to WW was tie her hands (any male) which he could do to bloody quick for her to do anything about.

Only needed yellow for GL

Flash had no where near the feats of post COIE speed force crap.

Aquaman only had to be dried out

Bat's wasn't the prep god he was post COIE (he was good but not that good) and was a legitimate street leveller.

Becomes more subjective in rounds 2 & 3, an argument can be made for either way.

Ha, nice breakdown^

He lose all 3 fights. The best chance of all is the 3 fight IMO.

Huh.
Why the third fight?

I agree with beatboks' assessment.

PC maybe?

Though I don't think so.

That was my choice.
He seemed so over powered compared to the other heroes.

Indeed, though I can at least think of some crazy feats for PC Hal.

I'd say it was more the weaknesses than anything. Drying out, fire, thats 2 for 1, yellow, bondage, ordinary human. Really the only one without a straight up weakness was Barry at that time.
