Lol. Please re-read:

'That was my BEST shot' - Human Torch. If not going all out - what is his 'best'???
Then, re-read:

'He took it! My FULL Nova Blast! Enough to raze the whole city block if I'd let it loose.
I would say you have no idea about the comic I am talking about, but even when the comic is in front of you, it seems that you have no idea. I am NOT talking about collateral damage. I am talking about the characters themselves, a notable braggart, Johnny Storm, who boasts and is a kid prone to exaggeration - in his own words, saying that if he let it loose, it would have razed a whole city block. Which is small fry, and not that impressive compared to the JLA.
Then, I showed the well known hotheaded Johnny, who, don't forget, in character, boasts - I show him with his 'best shot', being absorbed and one-upped by Iron Man. Does this mean Iron Man can absorb a star's worth of energy, and increase it? OK.
I THEN had a narration, on panel, which says his energy output of the Nova Blast is like a nuke. Woop de do. So that's THREE scans, from different time periods, all showing that when he actually uses it, it's not all that.
I can see you trying to scan dump and drown the thread, though, with characters not in this thread - trying to muddle the issue. Stick to Human Torch showings.
