Didn't the writer also state that Godzilla's atomic breath just happened to have kryptonite-like radiation?

Aside from the fact that the writer also made multiple tweets state that it isn't canon(to both companies) and you can't set a winner for them due to they don't share canon
1. It’s issue 2 of 7 so there is more to come
2. It’s out of continuity
3. The issue in the who would win in the Godzilla vs Superman argument is that they don't share canon. So, there is no universal set of standards you can apply to both IPs.
It is not canon or tied to prime continuity. 🙂
[QUOTE]This is an elseworld and not canon.[/QUOTE]
It’s also out of legendary, monsterverse continuity.
Yea. It’s elseworlds.
I wouldn’t put it like that. Lol but there are segments of fandom that are both super passionate and sometimes rigid in their point of view. Makes little sense to argue about power levels or make comparisons between IPs that don’t share canon. It’s all subjective.

He also states how powerful he viewed Superman is
I don’t think there is a quantifiable strength rating for Superman. Most consider him the strongest being in the DC universe. And I agree.
So after being exposured to kryptonite for an extended period of time. Batman feels Superman's heart needs a teravolt(trillion volts) burst to restart his heart.
Superman later recovers without outside help

Canon simply means that it will be part of the story moving forward. Which we knew wouldn't be the case, due to intellectual property rights.
But what's noteworthy is that Superman (and the kaiju, supposedly?) are written to be as powerful as they are in the mainline continuity. Which means that Superman, Captain Marvel, and an enraged Supergirl aren't physically strong enough to subdue a kaiju, or at the very least not Godzilla. Even King Kong didn't lose his footing after Kara socked him.

Edit:
Plus, if we really take the writer's tweets at face value. The writer also states comparing the two IPs' powerlevels wouldn't work, since they don't share canon. So I'm not sure you can scale their powerlevels based on this series.
The property DC has is, though, Superman's IP.
At the end of the day it's just an opinion about a character he wasn't writing (ie, mainstream Superman). He says "the Superman I'm writing is just as strong as that Superman" but since he isn't writing the latter, it's about as relevant as Kirkman's opinion on how Invincible chars would stack up against other superheroes.
Which is presumably why he also tweeted "Makes little sense to argue about power levels or make comparisons between IPs that don’t share canon. It’s all subjective."

So if we go by writer's tweets, Superman is the strongest in the DCU?
The point isn't to paint this as something that can be projected onto canon. But more so a case study of how a writer perceives the power of the characters in the story he writes.

And my boy Cyborg and the Batfamily, could.
