Dominus Vs Jamie Braddock

*To reaffirm what operator has already said...

By all implications, Dominus himself operated on a fully multiversal scale...

Superman: "Why the FOUR realitIES for me? Was it all in my mind? What was Dominus after?"
Kismet: "It was NO hallucination. [Dominus] warped ALL of reality so he could draw me from hiding.":

Aside from that, Dominus was capable of overpowering Kismet(and Superman, lawl) rather easily:

This is especially important because Kismet operates on a multiversal scale as well...

"I am able to look across time and the various realitIES -- comprehending them ALL.":

And Rip Hunter, who knows more about the inner-workings of DC cosmology than ANYONE, referred to Kismet as the "Illuminator of realitIES":

Heck, even Kismet's official bio gives her multiversal status:

*And again: Dominus >> Kismet... He trounces Jamie without much issue, tbh. 👆

I recall Dominus explicitly stating that he could still warp reality around Superman despite him going into the unconscious state.
Indeed he did:

That's an interesting interchanging of terms that are not necessarily interchangeable.

Clear as day.

Im tired of this tbh. Must i really spoon feed you the events? Because i dislike going in circles.

Let's begin. In Superman #138, dominus merges the four realities.

After that happens, he directly engages Kismet but before he can kill her she transforms into a green ball of energy and flees:

The story continues in Adventures of Superman #561 which centers around the hunt for Kismet (after she fled from Dominus who merged the four realities just before his confrontation with her). Waverider converses Superman about the events which happened in Superman #138, but it's revealed that Waverider is actually Dominus:

So the above issue was definitely a continuation of Superman #138.

The story continues in Action comics #748:

We outright see Kismet in the green ball of energy (after she fled from Dominus):

We also have Waverider telling Superman that the meeting between himself and superman in the previous issue was not actually him. Superman deduces that it was Dominus and goes with Waverider to search for Kismet. Reality starts to warp and it turns out that this Waverider is Dominus as well, fooling Superman for the second time.

And after that directly Dominus forces the multiverse madness upon Superman after which the real waverider along with linear men show up (they never did previously, it was all Dominus).

So no, those issues weren't one big fat warp. They were chronological events taking place after the four realities were merged. Quite clearly, i might add. So im not sure where you got that they were all part of those four alternate realities.

I'm sure I stated earlier that no one is saying that he doesn't warp reality.

Not sure what's your point here though, but whatever.

Right. Mostly using temporal manipulation (which is how he warps reality).

He warps time, space and matter:

Does Superman go to sleep?

Superman used a technique which Jamie can't replicate, so im not sure what's your point.

That's a pretty liberal extrapolation from art. Kismet was not a universal embodiment during that time. Busiek sort of shoehorned her in to that role years later. Before then, she illuminates paths.

Yes she was. When Superman confronted her, she explicitly mentioned that she is the space around him:

Waverider mentioned that if Kismet dies, the fabric of time would unravel.

Dominus is one of the most exaggerated characters in comics and due mostly to Superman fans because of the need for him to have beaten a multiversal power. Problem is that I have yet to be given a demonstration of such multiversal power. Manipulated timelines and a pocket dimension the he resides in doesn't cut it.

The problem is that you didn't comprehend the story right. Personally, i legitimately dont give a shit if Superman has beaten a multiversal being or not.

Dominus wins
