It's the height of fanboyism to see a substance for the first time ever in comics, have it called unbreakable by the villain (cuz they NEVER make hyperbolic boasts😏😉 only to see Clark break it a panel later. It's really no more impressive than any of his other strength feats. Less so. There is no way to quantify the true strength of said metal except the words of a villain proven to make hyperbolic boasts in a six books series full of hyperbolic boasts designed to make Clark quit.
villains are egomaniacal people who consistently overestimate their abilities and underestimate heros. How many times has Riddler stated Batman will NEVER solve a riddle? How many times has Batman in fact, done it? Every. Single. Time. Lying hyperbole is LITERALLY part of the villain trope
Superman is hands down one of the most powerful heros to ever exist. Near inarguable. But idiotic feat wanking devalues his real feats.
Originally posted by tkitnaIt's just Superman fans that will deny it. They want Superman to be the best at everything. If Superman breaks it, beats it, lifts it, then to them, NO one else can do it. It's gotten to the point that if Superman eat some peach pie, and someone makes a thread about if hulk or any character can eat peach pie, his fans will say No. And argue with anyone that say they can.
Of course he can break them. Its what Hulk does.
