Can Superman Replicate Thor's glacier shattering feat?

That wasn't until well after Thor's strike, so are you ever going to back up your claim that Thor initiated the shattering by damaging support pillars.

Happened before or after is irrelevant. It was a fresh platform, connected to intact support pillars, in a different location that collapsed.

It very relevant as Superman is placed in the same circumstances as Thor and has to replicate his feat. that means he starts in the same place as Thor and has to shatter the same ground.

So for your argument to even remotely hold up, you'd have to prove the area directly around Thor's strike had support pillars.

I don't have to prove that in order for my argument to hold. We know that there is empty space under the ice and support pillars throughout. We see this when the creature comes out and also in Thor's feat (the ground collapses and falls a distance).

We see the creature collapse the platform without effecting the pillars. It creates an instability which causes a domino effect.

Thor heated the platform with a blast of energy.

If true, you'll have no problems providing a clip that proves the area immediately around Thor's strike had support pillars.

"area immediately" is not well defined.

If there weren't any support pillars then the feat is easier.

That would have needed to be an extremely hot blast in order to destabilize such thick ice over such a large area. In the end, you still haven't posted anything that proves Superman can achieve the same feat in the same circumstances.

Superman can use HV and achieve the same results. Possibly punch it as well.

Prove it.

Prove it. Show me a feat of Superman using his HV to cause such huge devastation with a single shot.

It takes this many losers to make this thread go this long, lol, who cares.

He just needs to cause enough damage to create an instability. Remember, he can use one continuous beam.

No he can't use a continuous beam. Per OP:

*Clark has to do it with a single strike

Please stop trying to weasel around the stips.

Thor did it with one continuous lightning blast. The OP is defining that as one strike.

The ground is stronger near support pillars and weaker away. A good enough crack or damage can make the platform collapse.

Thor's lightning blast lasted a second. Are you saying Clark can accomplish the same with a second's worth of HV?

Doesn't matter. It was a continuous beam as you said it wasn't.

Yeah, it wasn't. I rewatched the scene. From the moment Thor discharges the lightning on the ground till it ends takes less than a second. Calling that a "continuous" strike is just plain trolling at this point.

In any case, whatever your definition for continuous is, you still haven't answered the question: Can Clark use his HV in as short a time to cause a similar amount of destruction?

Again, prove Superman can dish out enough damage.
