So yeah, this is bloodlusted Superman.

Who wins this fight?

So this is Kurse that was given the strength to be 4x Thor strength.

2 Questions.

Is his iron vulnerability a well known fact?

What battlefield are they fighting on? What I'm asking is, are they in a scrap yard, a park, or is this just a featureless environment begging the question of whether or not DOS Superman would be able to defeat Kurse?

From what I recall, Superman was far weaker during the DOS era, than he was a little less than 10 years later than the event. My guess would be that he may have a chance, but I think that without the knowledge of Kurse's vulnerability that he could be in for a lot of trouble, plus if this is a featureless environment, he'd likely have no way of permanently putting Kurse down. Kurse after all had Beta Ray Bill, and Thor beat.

Man of Steel (Steel is an alloy made of Iron and others) vs someone wirh an Iron weakness.

Kurse. he doesnt even need to be Amped. an average Kurse who is 2 times stronger than thor will defeat superman. he is also magically enhanced isnt he? if so then its almost a stomp.

Kurse kills him every single time.

Superman's too smart to die against Kurse tbh.

Didn't realize bfr wasn't turned off. Superman could win this every single time just by tossing Kurse out of the city.

Kurse wins.

So he would run away.

Lol. Kurse in a ultra beatdown. Superman loses his head to any version of Kurse. Spite.

Superman if he is willing to kill.

Guys I don't think even weakness exploitation will work. Remember, Power Pack dropped an entire building frame composed of iron on him and he yelled in pain but wasn't KOed. Then (later) Energizer combined the powers of BOTH Mjolnir and Stormbreaker to finally put him down.

I don't see how Kurse loses.

Kurse's 'weakness' to iron is massively overrated.

Despite his plethora of appearances, said 'weakness' has only been exploited ONE time on panel -- and that was when Power Pack dropped the framework of a f*cking skyscraper on top of him(ie. hundredS of tonS of material.) But even in that case, Kurse was still able to dig himself out of the rubble later in the same issue, and appeared none the worse for wear.

My point is just that some people tend to act like iron is akin to Kurse's Kryptonite... Which is simply not the case.

I did say vulnerability, not weakness. There's a difference. Well, just in case your post was directed at anything that I wrote. I don't believe that it is overrated in any way. It is a vulnerability of his, which could be exploited if the character fighting him knew about it. This is why I asked if it were a well known fact. If it is, then Superman (depending on battlefield) could use it to hurt him. In a featureless environment though... Well you know.

No, no. It wasn't directed toward you at all. 👆

Bloodlusted Superman was at least 4 times more powerful than his average self. Also Superhuman is actually many times faster than a bullet. If Kurse fought a character with the speed and reflexes of a bullet then he wouldn't be able to land a blow.

Superman should view Kurse as a statue or at least in very slow motion.

Superman's hv could mess him up too.

I think Superman would put on a great showing, but I still think Kurse would be too much for him in the end.

Please don't polute this thread with this 4 times more powerful crap. The speed things is acceptable, but again, please don't polute this thread with this 4 times more powerful crap 😘

Well how many times more powerful would you estimate?
Going from hours of fighting to not being able to damage DD to killing him in a few panels.
