DCnU versions of both.

Superman.

What do you base that on, Jake? I'm curious why people seem to assume Superman is more powerful than WW at this point.

Luckily for you and this thread, I am also a sexist.

Superman wins easily.

carver9
Unsure yet...haven't got a real display on Wonder Woman capabilities. Looking at lifting fts, both are pretty similar. Looking at the fight against Darkseid, I would give Wondy the edge. DCNU Superboy would beat both of them.

Wonder Woman's solo title is great, but in terms of feats, doesn't really give us anything.

Conversely, Superman's title has been blaaah (Action Comics is good, though) but gives us a solid idea where he stands power level wise.

Pretty clear Superman is the most powerful and formidable member of the League at this point.

So, we don't have a display of Diana's capabilities...but you give her the edge over Superman?

Sometimes, I wonder if you love being trolled and hounded by the rest of the forum.

No, that's not what I said...I said if we base it off the Darkseid showing then yeah, she holds an edge. Doesn't mean that I think she would win, I'm just throwing stuff out there. She owned GL and Flash just like Superman did and she also kicked Superman some distance during this same fight. I don't know who would win out of these two...undecided.

JakeTheBank
Well, Superman has a plethora of abilities to fall back on while Diana's formidability has yet to be tested. Her best case is to hope she can score a lucky attack on Kal with her enchanted weaponry.

Diana has been carrying around some powerful items as well, items that could decapitate him. Wonder Woman fights against powerful opponents has been on point imo. Not saying that she'll win but I see this as a close undecided fight for both.

-Pr-
Superman did as well against Darkseid as she did, so I don't see how she's superior. Especially since Superman was hit by the Omega Beams, tortured on Apokolips, and still had enough in the tank to physically rock DS.

I mean, if you want to go by performances against Darkseid, Aquaman stabbed him more times than Wonder Woman did. ermm

Like Jake said, though, Superman's just had more showings since coming back, and based on that, I'd have to side with Superman.

Sigh*, I never said Wonder Woman is superior, I said she is formidable, formidable enough to make this a undecided fight.

So what's "an edge" to you?

Means, if I was to base this fight completely off of how both performs in combat, I would give Wondy the edge, especially since she took on Flash, GL, and Superman and was nearly unstoppable. I also think her showing against Darkseid was better but looking at everything as a hole, I think an argument can be made for both.

So even though Superman performed better against Batman, GL and Flash than she did against a GL and a Superman that wasn't trying to fight her, you give her an edge?

And Flash? She didn't fight Flash. Unless both my physical copy and digital copy are both missing a page.

Performed better? She was busting his shields like it was tissue paper.

I'm not giving her a edge...I don't know who'll win since we really don't have a display of physical power from Diana minus her battles (she did lift a humongous plane).

Superman smashed more constructs than she did, and got hit less by Hal than she did.

I love Carv's logic.

"Diana doesn't have the feats of Superman, so we don't know if she's physically on his level, therefore she holds an edge."

I never said she holds an edge. I said her showings is combat is better than Supes and imo it is whereas Supes has displayed more power.

Still don't know what it is about this Darkseid showing that you think magically gives her an edge.

He's been ok in his own book I think.

ColossusGrundy
He's been a pushover in the League.

Pre-reboot, he was a good matchup for Supes and definitely for WW.

Now I'd be afraid for his life if either were to really get mad at him.

He was holding his own against Diana, though, at least to a point. Yes, she broke his construct, but he was getting hits in. He even got the last hit in before the fight was stopped.

I think Hal's performance in JL gets somewhat over-exagerrated a bit. It's his attitude that needs and adjustment, as well as the disparity between JL Hal and GL Hal.

That's true, in his solo he's been pretty nice.

I guess the JLA writers are just set upon a hierarchy.

I disagree and he underestimated Supes and seemed more serious when facing Wondy.

ColossusGrundy
I agree with Carver here.

Hal Jordan used to be formidable in EVERY title he was in (JLA, GL, Ion, etc)

Now the DC writers are just using him in JLA to make WW and Supes look good.

What's next? Bats kicking his butt?

Is this punishment for the movie not faring as well as they thought?

Put him back to being on par with Supes and I'll be happy.

Bats has already stolen his ring.

Hal hit Diana more than once.

Yes, she looked superior, but then again, she was looking for a fight more than he was.

The only thing about the fight that really seemed off to me was her taking a jab at his sexual performance. That was a pretty... OOC thing for Diana to do.

Hal was never on par with superman. Oh and superman wins easily. Lulz at carver.

Surprised to hear you say that.

Aquaman even took crap in JLA #10.

DC caved and had the written journalists heckle Aquaman after he saved ppl.

Sorry, Supes and Bats just get really old to me. Nice characters, just ...... kinda tired of the same old. New universe, same old crap.

Superman had a bad three years under writers like Robinson and McDuffie. He was due some respect from his peers.

Aquaman is supposed to take crap; that's one of the biggest parts of his new arc. Johns is building towards something, though.

I hope you're right. Always liked AM, he got dissed too much for too long. I think the character could be written SO much better than he has been historically.

Maybe this is a new day for AM.

(Still want Hal to kick Supes' butt once for respect)

Ok, you have a point "but" I was partially right, she had the advantage over GL and when Superman intervened, he got dropped kicked some distance. That was a good showing for Wondy imo.

Looking at the images above, I'm thinking Darkseid must either be using

a) avatar projection, as he did pre-DCnU

or

b) have unguessed-at healing factor at work.

Superman physically fought Darkseid, staggering him, while Batman inspired Cyborg to use his ability to converse with Apokolyptan tech to somehow force Darkseid in to a boom tube.

One more question for you all, how DID Darkseid manage to cope with both eyes being attacked? Did the team use the plan just outlined at that point or was Darkseid able to continue fighting somehow?

Did he indeed have a healing factor that was just so good that, the moment he removed the trident and sword ( I remember that was Wonder Woman's plan in the issue before and/or the Newsarama preview) he was all better?
