Can Superman match this Gladiator strength feat?

Started by Stoic12 pages

Byrne Superman was strong for that time, but unless you want to deny that strength feats have become ridiculously... well ridiculous, he's weak compared to what he has been written to be these days. He certainly didn't have planetary level strength back then. Not even close. It'd be great if they'd dial it back to those days instead of this solar system, galaxy, universal, multiversal levels of bullshit that they've been peddling to make up for the fact that most of the brilliant writers are retired or dead. Because next week El Franko with the tractor will leave you scratching your head, until it bleeds.

😂

Yeah, good post.

Actually he has at least one planet level strength feat(actually greater than that) under Byrne if you go by how he wrote Superman.

But this is Superman from up to the New 52 reboot, not just Byrne or even before DOS. He just worded it a bit unclearly.

Can you post scans of that feat?

He can't match it. Not even close tbh.

That's just you lowballing Superman as usual.

Here is Superman flying straight through a planetoid destroying it in one hit.

Let not forget Superman casually sliced a moon in half by flying through it. He did this under Loeb after Luthor became President, before Our World At War storyline.

Did Gladiator fly through that planet to destroy it?? No he didn't, he stood on that planet and hit it with his fist and destroyed it. Why are people posting scans of Superman ramming small stuff and getting koed, cells scrambled and moon level feats?

I'll have to find it later.

To be honest this is a weird example.

Only in carter canon.

Cry some more. Superman's Source Wall feats put Gladiator to shame.

Also shows how bad you are to bring up the Moon example. If you actually read the comic and did a little bit of research you would, assuming you could actually understand it, you'd realize how retarded it is for you to use the shadow moon against him.

The Shadow moon was used FOR him though, but you are too ignorant to comprehend that it will also be used against him, and hell no, Superman CANNOT destroy a planet with his fists like gladiator did.

And yet you're too ignorant to realize how retarded your argument using it against him is. Instead this is like uber viagra for your Superman hate boner.

What was the shadow moon made of? I will guide you slowly through this in Hope's you'll understand.

And Superman's best feats are so above what Gladiator did it's flat out dumb what you're arguing. For fuck's sake, a mediocre Kryptonian in Commander Gor beats that.

But don't let this distract you from figuring out what the Shadow Moon was made of.

It should be remembered that a drained Superman DID destroy an entire planet just by leaping off of it just before his 6-7 sundip.

you are a complete idiot. I don't care what that moon was made out of. Someone used it as an example of Superman destroying something, yet Superman KOed himself doing so. Now how the hell does that relate to Superman matching what Gladiator did? That has NOTHING to do with using your fists.

I'm the idiot yet you think what it's made of is irrelevant. Are you just trying as hard as you can to prove me right about how incompetent and ignorant you are?

The size of georgia maybe. But what does that have to do with hitting a planet with your fists and destroying it???

Yeah but.....it's your topic and you limited it to pre N52..... 😕

Prove it was the size of Georgia or concede to being a liar. Attempts to divert are concessions.

Delta, all things aside, every right or wrong about the comic books we're talking about completely aside, JBL's worst crime is disliking Superman irrationally.

You, on the other hand, share private information from people who trusted you because you let the conversation get so into your feelings that you couldn't wait for a way to try and strike back.

You're a garbage poster and I'm going to assume it extends to you as a human too. 🤷‍♂️
