Yes, I am well-aware of the power on the Lantern team, but it's really hard to argue against metatextual characters like these:

hmmm even if let's say ZH Parallax and Kyle Ion blow up the multiverse from the get go, would it kill QS? since Quantum Superman's existence is implied to be simultaneous across every point in space and time he's ever occupied in

I mean, what stopping him from just breaking the Lantern team down to their essential/fundamental character nature, and dumping it into another dimension(like he did to Superman/Ultraman)?

eh.. I don't think there's stoppin that
But the lanterns team is infinitely more powerful than Superman/Ultraman, some of them might resist it...though doubtful

Strange Visitor Superman is the dumbest of all renditions of Superman.

Superturds lose round one, Cosmic Armor beast cleans up in RD 2.

100% agreed. not sure any of the others would technically be needed--or at least the others would be redundant.

Keep in mind that QS wasn't manipulating their energies or w/e. He was manipulating the very ideas that Superman and Ultraman embody on a metatextual level. He casually broke both of them down into a base/essential state, and merged them into a singular essence/idea. That's literally what QS was holding here:

He then sent that pure essence/idea/concept to the Monitor Realm, and used it to power Thought-Robot.

And considering the story reiterated that Superman represents *the* most powerful idea/concept in DC, I don't see why QS couldn't manipulate the ideas/concepts of beings who are metatextually inferior to Superman... Which is basically everyone on the Lantern team. /shrug

Imo, the only characters who can defeat QS are more powerful metatextual characters(ie. Trano & Zaarn, The Gentry, The Empty Hand, Mxy, etc.)

Obviously, the feeling of alienation/loneliness, and the need to take a boxing-construct in the face. Or, perhaps, boredom.

There's gotta be a ceiling. Of the beings QS can manipulate their concept

Do you think he can manipulate someone as powerful as say PR Beyonder, Lucifer Morningstar, Molecule Man or Michael Demiurgos. I mean none of these 4 are metatextual characters
