At the end of Return to Krypton, Superboy lifted Argo city and threw it in the space.

Considering Krypton's gravity is considered to be several times higher than Earth, which mid herald or below can perform that feat?

That is damn uber feat for Superboy. Kind of worried about how the power levels are rising in the new 52 now.

What is amusing that he is a weaker clone of a half-kryptonian son of Superman.

Hulk. Thor. Silver Surfer. Thanos. Fairly easily.
From what i keep hearing about them, the new Sentry and Blue Marvel.
Not going to list all of them at Marvel. DC, someone else can touch on.

Hulk would snap Argo city up so bad it'd turn to snap city.



Hulk ftw

I said mid heralds or below.

Strength only? I see Magneto pulling that off with his powers.

When did he throw a city into space? I know he was floating Asteroid M into orbit, but it was quite a bit smaller than a city.

BTW, don't confuse on "city". That chunk of rock Superboy threw was damn near a planetoid as shown in Supergirl and was orbiting a blue sun as one of its satellites.

He didnt specify strength. But he did say mid herald on down. Didnt see that below the scans.

According to the KMC tiers thread Hulk still qualifies (somehow).
Thor is definitely WAY above mid herald, and New Sentry and Blue Marvel should be too.
So, along with Hulk throw in any Green Lantern, Nefaria, Firestorm,Gladiator...long list again. Others will post more i'm sure.

Here you can see how big it was.

Damn.

The context in that pic being...nothing.
Not saying you're wrong, just saying that pic could be a snow globe, your narration notwithstanding.
Still, i stick with my choices.

Looks like something was pulling it when he threw it. I need to read the comic. I'll read it today but him lifting it and getting it off the ground was impressive. Can't think of a mid Herald that can pull that off. Maybe Grey Hulk could...He does have some good strength fts. Superboy was stated to be the most powerful being on the planet on numerous of occasions and He'l himself was scared of him...so him pulling a ft off like this isn't surprising...especially since he ripped a guy in half that has been giving Superman trouble.

@ Carver lowballing superman EVEN here.

How am I lowballing Superman? If anything, I'm giving Superboy the props DC has been trying to throw in our faces. I can also bring up his fight with Supergirl ya know.

Graviton He-Man Savage Hulk

Saying he was considered more powerful than Superman, or H'el ever being scared of him or Jon Lane Kent who is totally different than this Superboy tearing apart Parasite is anything to do with Superman or why don't you just shut up?

He'l had him chained up to be killed before his power was complete. That means a lot.

I said it was STATED that Superboy is the most powerful on the planet. Take it as you will.

Lol...it was Superboy who ripped Parasite in pieces which again is a huge ft. Take that as you will as well. He also tanked punches from Supergirl and literally nearly dropped her with one attack.

Any of carver's favorite characters.

Cable, Polaris, and Magneto come to mind.

do they have to physically toss it or can they use say telekinesis type feats to do this? that will narrow it down

Graviton.. Wait.. Is he mid or high?

Graviton magneto

Don't know what Graviton currently is. He was recently one shot koed by Hulk. High Heralds usually wouldn't drop from a single attack. In the past though...He was most def high Herald to trans.

He had him chained and about to kill him because he and kryptonians hated clones and he thought executing him would make Superman and Supergirl believe him. It had nothing to do with fear. Read the ****ing comic.

Post the scan where it was stated. Untill then, its as much fact as anything you spout i.e nothing at all.

Haha, you're so desperate to lowball Superman its not even funny. Jon Lane Kent ripped Parasite apart when he had no powers. Supergirl wasn't even dazed from that orbit TK throw and she nearly killed Superboy.

And shut the **** up.

Count Nefaria was high herald and recently he was one-shot by Thor, and another time easily beaten by Doom. Comics.

Make it a strength showing only.

Magneto reversing the path of the planetary bullet and putting Asteroid M into orbit.

Cable levitating Providence for over a week.

Pretty sure Crystal lifted Attilan, and she's a high meta mmm

Terrax might be capable of the feat. Beta Ray Bill was a listed mid herald that could probably pull it off, Black Bolt if he's amped, Hercules was listed at mid herald I think. Wonder Woman. Kilowog, Guy Gardner and John Stewart were all mid heralds iirc. So was Lobo.

Oh, and prior to WWH, Hulk was a listed mid herald.

Oh, and Jack Hawksmoor... maybe? sly

I'm sure there are a dozen others. It's a mostly ridiculous feat to attempt to match because 'lifting a city' requires either exotic powers (tk, tactile tk, etc) or plot to keep the object intact. Lots of characters below high herald have similarly awesome feats though.

Mid Heralds?
Thor and Hulk

Vision should be able to wire the city together and initiate launch.

If the red line is a person flying by then the "city" appears to be a block... very impressive but its probably lighter than the Baxter building or an equivalent skyscraper.

To be honest Carver's analysis about Superboy, Superman and H'el is fkn funny.

WTF

Well the key is to "THROW", not carry or transport.
Thowing a 100kg object into space from the ground takes a minimum force of hundreds of millions of tons because of air resistance.

The city has astronomically more mass, the planet has several times more gravity, and the atmosphere is several times denser. This feat is well beyond comprehension. I might calculate it later. But the number is too damn big to be sure.

Hush Zak.

I'm not derailing this thread anymore but Grey Hulk could do it.

I think the answer to the thread question is: lots of characters.

A whole city not just a city block under a gravity field several times more than Earth is lighter than a skyscraper when we saw several skyscrapers on it already?

Damn thats a sick feat.

Haha, you actually believe a skyscraper is heavier than a whole city?

Its a very small city, and the fact you don't see my point shows a lack of spacial reasoning.

It was a very big city in fact. Read the comics first and then talk. Once again, your marvel love is astounding.

I am seeing a very weird idea that somehow a skyscraper is heavier than a city WHICH HAS SEVERAL SKYSCRAPERS.

Also can I see a mid herald throwing a city out of orbit by pure strength and not argue about a skyscraper being heavier than it?

I think it is silly to believe the baxter building would weight more than the city. I do get the material is different, and being heavier, but it is still kind of silly to believe it would weight more than the entire city IMHO. No offense.

Pre-Flashpoint Lobo. If he could roll an entire city into an energy orb the size of a bon-bon and eat it...I could see him chucking one into orbit if he's sufficiently pissed.

Agreed.

Okay well i guess i have to give a class on spacial reasoning

After a cholera outbreak, Chicago decided to put in a sewer system. Obviously in order to do that they had to raise the city block by city block. City blocks weigh in at. 5-8k tons.

The Chrysler building which we can use as a rough copy of the Baxter building weighs in at nearly 300k tons.

That's not a city block, that's a whole city he lifted up. Why don't you get that?

And no, mixing real life stuff with comics never ends well.

Even then, how many city blocks span the entire city?

If we say each block weighs a minimum of 5,000 tons, and there's 100 blocks in the city(there's tons more though), then that's 500,000 tons right there.

Even under a gravity machine which increased its weight by double its still 260,000 tons shy.

Hell even if somehow the buildings were increased tenfold and held its still in line with my original point.

We have a genius here along with the great H1a8 who can view the size of a city by just viewing it on the page.

facepalm

The lengths which some people go to lowball a feat is lulzworthy.

Im sorry you cant judge size based on illustrations

Using New York as a base, I looked it up and someone said a North-South block is 1/20th of a mile, roughly 264 feet. While an East-West block is 1/5 a mile, which is roughly 1,056 feet.

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mKUVL6gPOQM/T095y_KD1kI/AAAAAAAAO0E/uoYpZRgZaww/s1600/argo+-+sg5-03.jpg This is larger than 4 city blocks imo.

Not if the red line is a supine person flying by then the "city" appears to be a lot smaller.

Terrax has already done it.

Enough with lowballing. Either name someone who has thrown a city into space or don't post at all.Originally posted by zopzop

He threw a city into space via strength?

Using logic is lowballing... idk what you are on that you want to follow that logic.

If you just eant to ignore context to wank a feat go for it.

Perspective is everything. No idea how big that city is - so let's just call it a city, and leave it at that.

Jack Hawksmoor can definitely do it.

I'm calling a city which was meant to be in the comic. Unless you can *definitely* prove the city's size, its your opinion alone which is highly subjective. And its quite laughable TBH.

So take it and shove it.

Ure stips are jacked up then. You want a mid herald to throw a city from the ground all the while keeping in mind that your example was done with Krypton's gravity and must be done with pure strength alone?

Yes? What's wrong with that?

Then your Superboy example is more misleading if anything...

We all know what ABHI tried to do...let's not pretend. He DID try to throw that off as a pure strength ft which was the reason I kept asking for the issue number. He's trying to save face because someone called him out (i wanted to be the one to do that Celey. ).
