Originally posted by DarkSaint85Fernus was before Infinite Crisis, in which Superman received a major boost and New 52, where his invulnerability was increased to a ridiculous extent [i.e. crushing kryptonians inside his brain, immune to TK etc.], and then they both re-merged. And the current Superman is basically a decade older, so obviously more powerful.
I believe he hasn't gotten any upgrades as such, nor was Fernus' handling of him a low showing, so I think the outcome would be the same as before.
