The Eldest defeated Vulcan twice before Vulcan attacked his race and broke the connection with the eldest. It wasn't a direct victory.
yeah i've had that discussion many times. i think it was his own power that he used to shut down power. darwin's powers are personal. he seemed to use energy in the brain against the person to shut down powers. i'd need to go back and look again, but i don't think darwin's powers really played much of a role. he also had someone else's but their power never really surfaced either iirc.
vulcan is dumb at times, doesn't mean he would miss the same thing here. he could have done it right away. not sure how it's not a victory though. even though he didn't think of it, it was still him who pulled it off.

Vulcan could have the brain of Absorbing Man and still win easily. He's see green energy constructs and achieve and erection.

That's his downfall. Even if he was smarter, Hal still has the means to resist and take him out.

He was more powerful than usual. That showing can't be used because of that.

He disconnected the power supply for the Eldest. That's not the same as directly beating him.
He can't do that to Hal.

Pointed that out earlier and showed pics. They don't care. They want their information from a D.C. only perspective, anything else doesn't register. Vulcan's whole thing is the efficiency with which he is able to pluck energy right out of super energy imbued beings. It's like cheating in super hero comics, but that's what the hell he does. That's the character. GL, with a single exotic power source would be the worst match up possible. By the way, Annihilus would snack on a GL ring like a handful of skittles.
