Re: Is Superman still the mightiest character?

When I say mightiest, I mean that with all resources at their disposal, power versatility, etc.Is there any one super powered mainstream hero or villain able to replace him, and either do as well, or better?
If so, who would you nominate?
Or is this actually meant as a serious question?
In which case, name something another mainstream hero or villain couldn't do that Superman can.

There are characters that can do almost anything he can do.
But there are very few, if any, that can do everything he can do. So the answer to your question, in at least a general sense, is yes, he still is the mightiest. Though I think saying "mightiest hero" works better than "mightiest character" as there are characters who have been written better. Plenty that have been written worse, sure, but Superman has had some shitty runs under certain writers.
