Which Superman clone is biggest ripoff?

No,Naruto.

Sentry was stated by the creators to be a Superman clone, at least in the beginning, he also has a Superdog called Watchog but in my opinion he evolved to the point where he is so far from Superman that Hype and Glads are much closer. Sun God is however a 1 to 1 copy.

He also has a Kelex clone, no?

I have another question. Is it so horrible to be a Superman homage (clone or ripoff sounds too hard). I think it's a compliment as Superman is the first Superhero and the beginning of it all he should be already public domain (phuck those lobbyists).

Its the word "ripoff" its demeaning. Homage and analogue are fine. Ripoff suggests parody or copyright infringement. Batman is based off the Shadow, Zorrow, Shelock etc for example yet noone calls him a rip off. Even Clark isnt a wholly original concept.

Since Sun God was raised as a SM analogue, his fight with the Hulk was quite interesting (and with the expected conclusion) .....

But getting back to the main point, there are several SM analogues. Some closer than others.

👍.

It's a fair assessment.

As long as you don't hold double standards like saying that Superman is a rip off of Wylie's Gladiator while arguing Sentry isn't a Superman rip off I don't see any problem with that logic.

No i dont.. hes as far removed from Gladiator as Sentry is from him. I just dont like the term especially when " ripoffs" evolve into their own unique character, deadpool is a prime example. Original parody now his own man whos more popular to boot.

Damn that's pretty awesome.

Why would anyone expect Sin I Am o give a knowledgeable response about ANYTHING comics related?

Of course Superman is inspired too, though not so much from Gladiator, rather from Hercules, Samson and Moses. There is also a huge difference being inspired by something, like batman by shadow, zorro, sherlock holmes and being a homage or copy of something, just saing.

I'd say she knows more than you at least.

^^^I'd second that.

Sun God is probably the closest, based on how easily he dispatched the Hulk.

So Hulk would physically overpower Superman?

Superman Clone that would be Shazam/Captain Marvel...oh. Wait!

Hmmmm

.......

.......

......

Theres also the London massacre/Voids Manhattan massacre. Kid Miracle Man manipulating Johnny/ Void manipulating Robert. Both are middleaged overweight, blond, impotent husbands in nonpowered forms. Both got plot amnesia, aged and suddenly remembered everything. Both good side antagonist aspects begged for death after recoiling at the horror they caused.

Etc etc...but yea hes a superman ripoff cuz hes like strong n can fly n shit.

^Sin, he is a Superman homage because the creator had Superman in Mind while creating him. Miracle Man is also a homage to CM who is a Superman-clone, or someone who was created to be like Superman. But I wouldn't say these days that he is a ripp off, rather he is influenced by chars like Superman, MM and such.
