Also, I understand Cap is enhanced. But even with an assist from Sam Wilson, I did not expect Cap to damage the friggin landscape on this scale:

Peak human, my a$$.

Cap is about as "peak human" as Batman. That is to say: no one with *just* human-level stats(however advanced) could do some of the shit he's done. He's clearly low-meta, as far as I'm concerned. /shrug

I was under the impression those dreams are his way of knowing someone is messing with reality. He’s not a reality warper and knows something is wrong and those dreams are his way of making sense of it all.

The Plutoniun proves he IS a reality warper. Qubit spread Plutonian across all realities including Superman's.

I forgot that rebirth Superman and New 52 Supes fought to a stalemate (looked like New 52 had a strength advantage). Thanks Damborgson

Wow, even your memory is bitter.

Kind of surprised Qubit doesn't have a fan base. He was the only actual hero in Irredeemable. He was The Doctor in all but name for cripes sake.

As close as we get to The Doctor vs Injustice Superman.

Great speed ft for Rhino...

I'm not sure if I'd consider it much of a speed feat since there's no real indication that Rhino waited until the trigger was pulled to move.

So reading a GI Joe comic and when Cover Girl says "Yo Joe" she looks exactly like a porn star doing a scene.

Is that what comic artists do? Model their scenes from porn?

What is this thread about?

Edit

Superman with an amping suit would take several months to travel a solar system...

https://ibb.co/d44pMcJ

He catch a ride with some dolphins that can fly at the speed of light...

https://ibb.co/MCsVgmB

He gets back to full power and is 42 billion kilo away from Earth...

https://ibb.co/MCsVgmB

Even at full power, it would take him 18 months to make it to Earth. He tried to catch up to sub light speed dolphins to aid him in getting to earth quicker but wasn't fast enough. He can not achieve the needed speed to cross such distance that even Ms. Marvel could achieve in her sleep...

Same comic, he even compliments Lanterns for their abilities to cross distances at short times...

He’s also weakened.

Also dolphins were going FTL.

Bro let the story finish before you jump to conclusions, if not even that, then at least get your facts right.

So he was being a compulsive liar here when he said he was at full power?

Why should I wait until the story is over? Do you all do this?

THAT is an "amping suit"??

It looks like DC ran out of money for ink and made a costume from white space. 😆

his power levels were spoken of on three instances.

Once before he hitched a ride with the dolphins.
The instance you quoted
And then final instance when he used up his reserves chasing the dolphins.

Because of the first instance we know he wqs depowered in the first 2 issues up to that point.
When he hitched a ride with the dolphins he was able to absorb sun light from stars during his commute.

Then finally near the end, he chases the dolphins and uses up his power. So he’s depowered again.

Cool?

In the scenes I posted, he was at full power.

Ok cool so we are in agreement that only in that scan but not before or after. 👆,
In that scan he’s also again without sunlight and quickly loses his power due to no sunlight and chasing the dolphins without his power source. 👆

It's just another writers version of Superman... Canon in comics is not real.

It's like continuity it only exists in the loosest sense beyond the time frame as a writer, even things like Silver and Golden age mean little in terms of continuity. Anyone who tries to analyse beyond a single writers run to paraphrase comic book guy, had wasted their life. 🙂

You pretty much described CBR mains.

Alvaro's Battleboard was a such a blast to post on, even got to talk to Walter Simonson there, I simply was not prepared for Pendaran and his gaggle of continuity police. And their pet mod The Watcher who always always ALWAYS came down on Pendy's side.

Do you know that was my first ban, because of him? This same Pendy actually spun a legitimate mistake from another very good and very honest postet as a "lie". When I baited another poster about whether a GL is planetary when I knew damn well there were feats that prove they are, Pendy comes in and spouts that feat, so I explain I KNEW it but wanted to see if the OTHER GUY could back up his claims. You know, like Darksaint does to Carver all the damned time here.

Guess that was a bannable offense, whodathunkit.

Personally I think The Watcher and Pendaran are both the site owner, partly because of Pendy's and Watchers cozy relationship, and because all of Pendaran's arsehole friends were banned in a great purge on flimsy pretexts along with about 75% of posters, yet Pendaran himself stayed on untouched. The site owner was making a push for the mainstream audience's at the time, posing as a poster or mod is a perfectly logical tactic when your goal is the brass ring.

You know an Nth Metal gun would be kind of awesome. 😂
