No flight, gear, or other powers.
Make your call on strength, speed, and skill, if you will.

DarkSaint85
Superman is stronger and faster in raw speed, WW is easily more skilled.

Pillow Biter
Typically and on the whole, Supes has the advantage here. Still, there are some weaker Superman portrayals that overlap with some stronger Wonder Woman portrayals, and this would give WW the win at those times.

cdtm
^^^. Yep.

And that's why Diana really shouldn't stand much of a chance. A certain writer's having Batman cite "Bruce Lee vs Usain Bolt" notwithstanding, it would be a more accurate analogy if Bolt could move in any direction as fast as he could sprint, and shoot lasers out of his eyes.

Doesn't matter how skilled you are, if you can never catch the other guy, and he can tag you at will.

Pillow Biter
Speed is a Pandora's box that no writer knows what to do with. It's never used remotely realistically. So I don't think any speed edge would really be decisive here.

Supes typically loses to WW when he's either holding back too much or under a writer who doesn't credit Superman with especially dynamic power.

And you still have to get it past the editors! I had e-mail conversations with Greg Rucka about WW vs. Superman. He said he felt Superman was more powerful and formidable on the whole, but in a 1v1 combat between humanoids, Diana's skill and gear were enough to get the win. He admitted that his opinion was definitely in the minority among writers. With all that said, when it came time to pen the fight, it was ironic that Rucka couldn't give Diana a 100% clean win. I'm not sure if editors got involved or not, but I found it interesting. It's possible Greg thought he was giving Diana a clean win.

Still, there are some weaker Superman portrayals that overlap with some stronger Wonder Woman portrayals, and this would give WW the win at those times. In hand to hand? Certainly not. Even Greg Rucka, the biggest Wonder Woman proponent, showed her as overwhelmingly inferior in a physical fight. He broke her wrist by squeezing and KOd her across the solar system - then just hovered above her, until she got up. In any other circumstance, the fight would have been over right there as he would have continue to attack but, luckily for her, he was hallucinating. Or he would have punched her inside the sun, and not towards the Earth. The fight even ended with her removing his mind-control and slashing his neck with a magical item, which he quickly regenerated.

And then, we look at For Tomorrow . He seemed at least one tier above her, and she was armed to the teeth.
And then, we look at a League of One . She directly says she cannot win, as he casually overpowers her.
And then we look at Wonder Woman 175 . Even the 2nd biggest Wonder Woman fanboy , Phil Jimenez, had her so outclassed physically, that she said she was about to die and he was about to break her bracelets in a few blows. Again, she snaps him out of his mind control .
And we can go on with the examples.
We can also notice a pattern - every time Superman is not mind-controlled/etc. - and has full control of his abilities, he dominates to a ridiculously casual level

And we haven't even gotten to relative portrayals, such as against Doomsday, who broke her hands and Superman ripped him in half. etc.

I don't think there's a single writer who'd show her even having a chance hand to hand . I think some of them would keep her competitive with weapons but, in the end, he'd win under almost all of them.

cdtm
Konvict, too. After getting his measure, Superman appeared to be winning, while Wonder Woman was struggling to hold him at bay.

Philosophía
Yeah, that's why I said relative portrayals paint an even worse picture for her.

Pillow Biter
I'm agreeing (as did Rucka) that the majority opinion among writers and editors is likely that Superman wins here. It's likely a significant majority.

I'm not sure I agree with your characterization of WW's fight with Superman under Rucka. I'd been talking with him before he got the WW book, so that fight was probably his first chance to put his ideas into practice. I didn't really follow any of his other, later work that might have been relevant. Perhaps he changed his opinion.

Injustice was an interesting WW vs Superman fight. Also, there were times at the beginning of of the New 52 Superman and Wonder Woman book where it seemed like Superman was being shown as so unskilled that Diana, especially unleashed (which was a thing then), might have the edge. It certainly seemed in doubt.

At any rate, I'm in broad agreement as to Superman being solidly favored, on the whole. I find it more interesting to try to find and discuss the few occasions where Diana might have been favored, or where it was too close to call.

The Spectre+
supes with speed allowed still wins. He is outmatched in skill, but allthesame you cant fight who you cant see.

She was injured and was still holding her own. Superman isnt beating WW in h2h.

carver9
Also, WW showings recently just looks far better than Supermans.

krisblaze
Yeah, the Kryptonians were shitting on Supes and getting destroyed by Diana.

Similarly she could have killed him in Injustice but held back.

carver9
Lor Zod (Zod junior) koed him and some say it was a surprise attack. Let's assume it was, Disna was recently hit by a surprise attack from an amped Supergirl and brushed that sh** off and proceeded at punching her face in. Superman can only dream about diana highs after the rebirth.

Diana written properly would demolish superman shit. she also iirc beat god amped supes in n52

Didn't Wonder Woman disagree on Superman being faster than her? Anyway, I'd never give her the win over him up until this point. However, I am interested in what others have to say on the matter.

Before and after rebirth. She just took on and had the advantage against both Darkseid and Grail. Ended with him being on his knees.

I just went and read that arc. I believe you are misconstruing events. It's clear that Darkseid has the overall advantage against Wonder Woman, but she wins by manipulating the energies of the Greek pantheon that Darkseid had absorbed into himself to regain his full power.

DCU continuity is hard to follow. But what is up with Grail? Wasn't she supposed to be more powerful than Wonder Woman at one point? Now she seems less powerful. And what is up with Hippolyta schooling Grail? That shouldn't happen unless in the 'new' continuity Hippy is way more powerful than she used to be, or Grail has dropped quite a few tiers from when she was first introduced.

No indication this increased his power. His bestial rage was unleashed and I think the Doomsday-effect may have been a result of that rather than the other way around. Jiminez loved Wonder Woman, but he never struck me as someone pushing for WW > Superman. He credits Superman with dynamic-like power that is truly awesome when unleashed. Some writers don't.

What issue did WW fight God-amped Superman in during the New 52?

The official explanation is that she took all his pain and rage from OWAW and focused it all towards Wonder Woman. Plus he also punched through her hand at one stage.

I'm not saying Wonder Woman can beat him, just that that comic was a little different. We were all scared for her.

Pillow Biter
I liked that issue. I think your take jibes with mine. She was in serious danger, for sure.
Superman has traditionally been more powerful than Wonder Woman, and also more formidable in a fight--even with her skill edge.
Diana doesn't need to be favored over Superman in a fight to be a great hero and do her thing. I think it's a cheap trick when writers try to generate increased interest by pushing the competition with Superman angle. It undermines her in the long run. At the end of the day, when push comes to shove, it's always going to be Superman if you make it a contest. Best to avoid that.

One Big Mob
I think I've said it before but Wonder Woman more or less can peck at Superman. She can cause her damage, but she lacks the ability to actually put him to sleep.

I don't think he'd obliterate her unless you go by real high end showings only for him, but I think he'd likely win everytime. Think Hulk vs Hercules. Herc can land his damage but he lacks the ability to actually defeat him. Hulk will always win or look better in their fights.

Superman is an immense strength and durability wall for her. One she cannot overcome without the lasso.

Rage.Of.Olympus
Personally, I think the gap has gotten closer recently, to a point I didn't expect, but Superman vs Wonder Woman should always be Superman with a massive power advantage. Like Mother Russia vs Hit Girl. Just absolutely overwhelming. If he gets serious, he could basically punch through her skull or rip her arms off. Luck, skill, weapons and his mentality is the only reason she lasts so long.

But that's my preference. The lack of editorial constraint lately has definitely allowed some Carver to infect the medium but the historic precedence is still strong.

Show me any of what you just said about Diana vs Darkseid.

Why is Grail less powerful? Hecause Diana was working her? Maybe Wonder Woman is just that good? Also, Wonder Woman took out Shaggyman. The same Shaggyman that was schooling the entire JLA.

I brought up the unlimited part because people would probably mention that was before both Supes merged which in this case wouldnt be a solid argument since this version of Superman had an unlimited supply of power.

That was because Solarman had a portion of Superman's power and Superman was dying from kryptonite poisoning.

Yet he easily destroyed Solarman once stopped holding back.

"He's phased, completely back to Human"

Solarman ACTUALLY lost by the combined effort from Diana and Supes due to that, but then he shifted (went back to his form) again i.e regeneration while Diana and Supes were already exhausted and wasn't at full strength

No, it wasn't solar flare. It was a random surge which weakened Superman but did not deplete him.

Random surge? So it doesn't have the properties of the solar flare? Again I ask, would Superman have walked through said attack that knocked Diana out? Also, again, what does this have to do with a fist fight. My scans have relevance to what needs to be discussed here. You are posting random crap that doesnt prove anything tbh. You're stretching.

So if Superman stopped holding back, and used 100% of his power, it would KO her? Cool thumb up

Wait - Solarman, unamped, using Superman's power KOed her.

But Superman with UNLIMITED power...didn't?

Something does not compute.

Water is the opposite of fire.

Yet, you can't just cancel fire out with a thin piddley stream, right? You need a nice big hose. LOADS of water, especially if it is a big fire.

In abhi's scan, he cancelled out Solarman's power (which, btw, is his own). CAn you do that without equalling it? No.

So Superman = Solarman. Who....KOed WW.

You DO know what the solar flare is, right?

This is why I said you try too hard. God Superman did not use a solar flare, he tried to punch her to sleep but be couldnt touch her. Then, even he did use solar flare and she walked through it during one instance and fell asleep the second instant, it was done by two different writers.

You dont want it to compute because you enjoy slinging from Supermans waste.

In ABHI scan, they had a heat vision battle. That isnt the same as him using an OMNI attack. Also, the omni attack that he used the first vs the heat vision attack he used the second was against the same freaking Superman. What does this tell me? That his OMNI attack that koed Superman is greater than the heat vision that he used against Superman.

Thanks for the correction. I meant to say English is my 14th language.

I'm not sure I agree with your characterization of WW's fight with Superman under Rucka. I'd been talking with him before he got the WW book, so that fight was probably his first chance to put his ideas into practice. I didn't really follow any of his other, later work that might have been relevant. Perhaps he changed his opinion.

Injustice was an interesting WW vs Superman fight. Also, there were times at the beginning of of the New 52 Superman and Wonder Woman book where it seemed like Superman was being shown as so unskilled that Diana, especially unleashed (which was a thing then), might have the edge. It certainly seemed in doubt.

At any rate, I'm in broad agreement as to Superman being solidly favored, on the whole. I find it more interesting to try to find and discuss the few occasions where Diana might have been favored, or where it was too close to call.

Well, what he thinks and what he portrays are different. Lots of writers talk a lot of stuff , but what matters is what they put on the page - and what Rucka put is a Wonder Woman that was inferior to Superman, in a physical sense, to a considerable degree.

Injustice, a game comic, which has nothing to do with the main DCU , a series where Bane bear hugs Doomsday is a weird one to use, to say the least. But, I don't know if you know the full context/full fight, or just the scan you saw on the internet. A big point there was that Superman would beat Wonder Woman, but that he'd hold back against finishing her off. Which is, well, exactly what happened. Her sword easily gets destroyed, he takes her down in 3 hits bleeding on the floor in the most casual matter, and him stopping gives her the opening to poke his eyes and then break his arm:

https://s7d1.turboimg.net/t/38742697_1.jpg https://s7d1.turboimg.net/t/38742698_2.jpg https://s7d1.turboimg.net/t/38742699_3.jpg https://s7d1.turboimg.net/t/38742700_4.jpg

But this...has nothing to do with the mainstream DCU. This same Injustice Superman was later beaten by the good Superman in the most casual matter:

I just went and read that arc. I believe you are misconstruing events. It's clear that Darkseid has the overall advantage against Wonder Woman, but she wins by manipulating the energies of the Greek pantheon that Darkseid had absorbed into himself to regain his full power.

DCU continuity is hard to follow. But what is up with Grail? Wasn't she supposed to be more powerful than Wonder Woman at one point? Now she seems less powerful. And what is up with Hippolyta schooling Grail? That shouldn't happen unless in the 'new' continuity Hippy is way more powerful than she used to be, or Grail has dropped quite a few tiers from when she was first introduced.

To give you a simple answer - James Robinson. He's a shit writer, so he didn't give a shit that Grail is supposed to be superior to Diana. Besides, he couldn't have two villains above Wonder Woman in the same arc , so Grail became the punching bag.

Depowered: WW mops the floor with Supes.

Powered: Supes wins comfortably without weapons and still solidly with weapons.

Although i have to say the Supes wank and WW lowballing in their actual comparisons after tons of lip-service by DC are outright pathetic, Supes and WW should be a very, very close fight with weapons(and bring Clark to his limits if serious) and not that whooops WW is supposed to be around Supes but actually isn't shit-show that usually happens.

The general idea to put Supes notably above the other heavy hitters of the JL(like in the DCEU as an especially worse example) is something i dislike a lot and that DC actively undermines characters for the sake of Supes and Bats is anyways a big problem. But well that is just my personal rant about DC politics.

Who ****ing knows though? This Rondar retcon has me worried they gave him too much freedom.


I'll add it to my list.

Bendis will make his fans think he'll ruin the character, but I don't believe he'll actually do it.

DC only tends to look the other way on non canon stories, like Injustice or Frank Miller's abominations. I'm certain DC knows Bendis's reputation, and they likely have him on enough of a short leash that any hint of a threat gets edited out at best, or Bendis gets moved off the project at worst (Assuming DC didn't shackle themselves in a contract..)

I'll grant you that there's plenty of stories about Superman's villains and lore, but even then, it still felt to me like Wonder Woman was more the star of the book than he was.

It annoyed me particularly because I was hoping for a book like Superman Batman. The one Loeb started I mean, not that Pak monstrosity.

I am interested in your point though. Do you think Wonder Woman isn't written more as Superman's equal because of politics or sexism, rather than them just thinking "well, he's stronger than she is"?

She looked quite a few times like that, but like mentioned it felt more like WW visits the Superverse(and looks good while doing it). But i actually didn't like the weird way how the first fight against Zod and Faora looked for example, i mean Supes got bullied by them and then came WW in and pretty much rocked them like a hurricane(skill and gear advantage sure, but that looked like Supes would be some weakling who is completely out of his league there).

Sexism was in the past without the slightest doubt a big part of it, today probably/hopefully not so much anymore(with exceptions).

But Politics yeah, that's clearly one of the main reasons.

Going by some interviews is that also a relevant reason, but in a way that many of the writers apparently don't know much about WW(let alone her villains and supporting cast) at all in combination with pretty weird ideas(Priest and Robinson as prime examples for at least the latter). Which also explains the big mess Cheetah for example.

He one shot KOed WW with a punch that sent her back to Earth from the sun in their last encounter pre-N52.
He can also use phasing in their fight like he did to Doomsday and Mongul, or uses pressure points like he did against Maxima, and no, WW isn't doing sh*t to him with the lasso cause he should know its capabilities given how long they've fought side by side.

Does wonder woman know pressure points?

Could she still cut him while phased since the sword can cut the electrons off atoms?

If she does, then sadly the writers never portrayed, therefore it's better to assume she does not.
Assuming this is Post-Crisis WW, then no, she seldom uses swords in battle unlike her N52/Rebirth counterpart. Also, remember that N52/Rebirth WW does not have direct showings to suggest she can cut phasers with the atom-cutting sword.

No, I don't like bad things.

Yeah, and ever since Lanning ****ed off he's been hopeless imo.

They actually used to write Aquaman in the early 00s, and their work was much better than this crap.

And Mera can blow pretty hard if you know what I mean.

I hope she gets a few sex scenes with random dudes in the upcoming film. That's the only way to make it succeed.

Indeed, but the Still Force and that idiotic illusions fight in JL 4 is also not quite a new Kingdom Come.

Superman hits him twice, and both times Mera had to sucker-punch Superman to save Aquaman, who was standing defenseless on the ground, bleeding. Superman, by contrast, was literally without any kind of damage, from Aquaman continuously hitting him. I think it's pretty clear that Aquaman can't even damage Superman with his punches, while Clark would take him down any time he wanted.

There's a reason the sock didn't post all the pages, he was treating them like nagging children:

Big dramatic pages of Aquaman punching him don't change that, so meh.

He didn't have a good showing against Superman though. Superman put him down in one punch.
