Current Superman runs the Powers Cosmic challenge...

Current Superman takes on all of Thanos's opponents during the Powers Cosmic storyline exactly as Thanos did, in the exact same situations (for example, would Superman be capable of surviving Galactus's attack against him [sans shields since Superman doesnt have them] and then talk his way out of being destroyed by Galactus as Thanos did; could Current Superman defeat the Maker?)...

How far does Current Superman get in that storyline, or does he clear/survive it?

At what point in that story arc would Superman fall?

Or do you think Superman clears easily?

Doesnt really matter. He dies at Galactus.

If written by Starling, Superman clears it. Starling respects Superman a lot 👆

Perhaps, but in a forum setting, there is no writter...

The character is considered using his average showing (unless stated otherwise in the OP) without PIS being a factor...

Under those conditions, how do you think Current Superman performs during the Powers Cosmic arc?

Well if We are using a starling arc it will be fair to use a starling depiction of Superman, if that is the case he will clear it.

If you use Byrne Superman then no

Even if Starling writes it, how does he beat Maker?

Punching and blasting it hard wont be enough...

And considering what Maker did to Thanos with its alpha attack (one shot KO'ing Thanos when even a High End Skyfather like Odin failed to KO Thanos with multiple attacks), does Superman even survive that?

Starling put Superman in the middle of a cosmic battle with out getting killed, he got Ko though.

But under starling survived the fusion of new genesis and apokolips two massive planets that collided so hard that they fused together.

Under atarling when Galactus did something similar in a lesser scale he got in pretty bad shape.

Also superman was able with physical force to break darkseids body when the source power was unable to even scratch him

That is why I am telling you that Starling respects Superman a lot

He dies.

The only reason Thanos survived that blast was because of his shields.

No doubt, he respects Supes, but he respects Thanos as well and Thanos couldn't best it with physical force...

How would Supes beat it?

Anyone else have an opinion on this?

Superman's feat was on a bigger scale, with a LOT more force involved

In fact it might have actually helped Galactus survive, because I'm pretty sure his cosmic power allows him to absorb energy from the radiation released from the nukes and replenish his strength to some extent, while I don't think he just straight absorbs kinetic energy.

As far as the Maker goes, I just don't see current Superman cutting it. Preboot Superman I can see the writers could pull off giving Supes the win based on some of his old feats.

Does he have to get himself out of that prison made by rigelians that Thanos did and beat half a dozen punisher robots too and defeat Fallen One

Just realized is current Superman 😛

That was a pretty dumb plan though. I mean adding a nuclear arsenal to two full-size planets crashing together is like the pilot of the Enola Gay tossing some firecrackers out the window over Hiroshima to "crank up the damage". It's a waste of time considering the difference in orders of magnitude between the two explosions. You could collect and detonate every nuke that ever existed together x 1000 and it won't really damage the structure of the planet.
