it wouldnt really be much of a protection spell if it allowed one to punch through it. the way I see it, the only reason Supes could grab him was because until he put the "sqeeze" on it wasn'tn't percieved by the spell as an attack.

Also on the whole "depends on if Superman knows who he's facing" argument. Has something happened to relieve Suoes of his suoer senses? Doesnt he have super visiin, super hearing? Doesnt he know John constsntine and what he's capable of? Can someone tell me how Suoes would not sense John tense etc when he sees him and know that hes planning to face him. Not hear him start to speak. What likelihood is there in a forum fight that he would allow him to finish that word??

Just out of curiosity, who did John Constantine drop, with a single word, that was on the level of Superman?

Ah yes, this is what prep would do for the fight.

Yeah, that's a protection spell, but not exactly of the nature I was asking. In other words, that tells us nothing of the amount of damage John could soak up with a spell.

What has Nu Frankenstein done on the level of Nu Supes?

Shown that he is strong enough to contend with, and/or beat, the likes of:
OMAC
Shazam
Dianna

He's also demonstrated immunity to high-level magics. So yeah.

No idea how powerful Omac is, but did Shazam or Diana actually fight..well, intelligently? As in, not forgetting their powers?

He's also demonstrated immunity to high-level magics. So yeah.

If he's immune to high level magics how is John Constantine doing anything to him? Why'd they make him into Dr. Fate for no reason? Wait is Dr. Fate dead?

OMAC is a herald-level team-wrecker. The others fought and were overpowered. Strength-wise Frank is an elite.

Because Constantine's magic>the high-level magics Frank demonstrated immunity to? 😕

Don't forget immunity to fundamental forces of the universe, I.e The Rot.

Not immune to a Batkick.

No prep
No B.F.R

Owns Blight with a spell, and prepares yet another spell that could have killed Blight outright had Swamp Thing and Nightmare Nurse been able to hold him/it a little longer:

Teleports out of Heaven, and is able to outrun Zauriel long enough to reach the House of Mystery and invoke a 'Celestial Circle' imprisonment spell that is strong enough to trap Zauriel in the material world:

John and Nightmare Nurse invoke a 'Blackmare Curse'--one of the more complex spells in existence. It transforms its user into a literal demon and releases all of their inner darkness. After this curse was activated, the duo did extremely well against Blight, but NN pulled John away and negated the spell before he killed Blight's innocent host:

Constantine owns Frankenstein, Nightmare Nurse, Deadman, and Black Orchid with an omnidirectional blast:

John displaces Frankenstein's sword into a pocket dimension, before downing him with a single word:

It took me a grand total of two minute's in constantine's respect thread to find this.

So yeah, he's done it.

Well JLD are no Superman in term of reputation in universe. He was pretty much helpless when Diana threatened him in Trinity War and Frank had to help him.

Well, he didn't exactly beat Shazam or Diana. Also his durability is pretty suspect, for example Adam ripped his arm out.

Most of those aren't exactly on the spot, ready to use spells.

Now you guys are just nitpicking. You asked who John has owned with a word, and I provided a canon example of him doing so. The fact that he did so to a character whose primary 'power' is being immune to most forces is just an added bonus. 👆

How did you reach that conclusion? There's like a grand total of two feats there that take time for constantine to build. Not only that, but in one of those two examples, constantine generates a shield that briefly keeps Blight from attacking him.

So that's where Aaron got the idea for Unworthy Thor.. What a hack. 🙄

Oh, now he is a hack?

Seems to me Constantine wins.

Split.
