Thanks Stilt. 🙃

Has anyone here read Bruce Jones Hulk run? I am thinking of reading it once I eventually finish reading all of Peter David’s run, which will take ages.

Only bits and pieces.

Afaik, it's very solid... and its events and ideas introduced in that run are still remembered by fans and other writers.

So yeah, seems like a good choice to continue there, once you're finished with PAD's work.

PAD looked like an ******* attacking it.

Probably his fault a collected Bruce Jones edition doesn't exist.

So how strong current superman is ?

Depends on.
DC seemingly undid all the effects of previous crises. And in recent Superman Red/Blue comic we got a direct reference of pre-crisis event
So basically current Superman is a combination of pre-crisis and post-crisis
Then we have mods addressed this question

Same.

If indeed all character showings(in DC's history) become usable after this event, people will just have to specify which 'version' of the characters they're intending to use in the OP. For example: "post-Crisis" Superman, "DCnU" Superman, "Rebirth" Superman, etc.

...Unless they want all of Superman's showings(across all eras) to be usable. In which case it would default to "current" Superman.

Going to be a royal pain in the ass.

I'd be fine with it being Pre and Post COIE (with the exception of the Lanterns), but honestly, I've no problem if people want to use their pre-crisis lunacy in threads.

Galan, what do you think?

He's a mid herald, his best strength feat is shattering a small ass planet.

[b]The Master List (1/4)

Tier 5 - Skyfather

Agamotto, Ares (classic/DC), Black Witch, Cyttorak, Dormammu, Gaea, Ganthet, Gog (The Kingdom), King Thor (Reigning), Mephisto, Monarch, Mordru, Nabu, Neron, Odin (classic), Rune King Thor, Set, Shazam (Wizard), Starbreaker, Superboy Prime, Superman 1 Million (Kal Kent), Surtur, Trigon, Uatu, Umar, Vishanti, Waverider, Ymir (/w/ CoAW), Zeus

Tier 4 - Transcendent(Trans)

Amazo (/w/ base set of JLA powers only), Appolyon, The Asgardian Destroyer, Blackheart, Blaze, Circe, Count Abyss, Death Urge, Divinity, The Doctor, Doomsday (H/P), Dr. Fate, Dr. Strange (classic), Eclipso, Elders of the Universe (minus Ego), Fernus, Gorr, Gray Man, H'el, Hela, High Evolutionary, Infinity Man, Insane Genis-Vell, Ion II (Kyle Rayner), Jenny Quantum, The Keeper, Magus (original), Mangog, Lord Mar-Vell, Midgard Serpent, Mogo, Mongul I (Pre Crisis), Nightmare, Onimar Synn, Onslaught, Queen of Fables, Resurrection Man 1 Million, Runner (/w/ Space Gem), Lord Satanus, Sentinel (Alan Scott), Sentry (Void/Death), Silver Age Kryptonians/Daxamites, Solusandra, Sphinx, Stayne, Strange Visitor, Sun Eater, Superman (mainstream/Rebirth), Swamp Thing, Takion, Thanos, Tyrant (depowered), Validus

*Simply put, the consensus was to remove Superman from the list because he preforms feats well above even the Skyfather tier so routinely that it has basically become his norm these days, and can no longer be viewed as 'outliers' or w/e. It is well established that, when push comes to shove, there's really nothing Superman can't do... No one he can't beat(especially in the all-out/full capacity setting of KMC.) That IS part of his powerset -- probably the most important/fundamental aspect of his powerset, in all honesty. This makes it nearly impossible to confine him within a single tier.

His status can always be revisited at a later date if need be.

these days his average would probably be trans level i suppose.

when he needs to ramp up his power to save the day, he's completely unbounded.

One of the tops( If not the top) trans level imo
Especially considering you even can use his pre crisis feats if needed per mods.....

Heh, I totally forgot that Disney bought the Alien franchise.

Marvel's first issue is already building up a super-duper universal Queen:

lol.

Is it same continuity as it was before?

Not sure if Disney is doing a complete reboot, or just a partial reboot.

Someone really liked the film Species.

anyone watched the new invincible yet?

First 3 episodes are good shit.

Omni-Man's slaughter of the faux-JL was brutal AF. 👆

Someone should draft him in a BZ 👆

You know how everyone kept running into Hal Jordan as Parallax?

If Parallax had complete mastery over space and time, why couldn't he ever tell the entire time stream changed, and he lost already?

Like, the events that played out reset the entire universe, or multiverse. His existance at all doesn't make sense, let alone the events of Zero Hour playing out in his own little closed off corner of the time stream.
