DC Genius Hierarchy (science)

Does anyone have the balls to put these guys in order? At least in genius/super genius lists. I'll give a list and if I left out anyone, please contribute. No high end cosmics.

Brainiac
Lex Luthor
Ray Palmer
The Chief
Lord Havok
Brainiac 5
Pre-Crisis Captain Comet
TO Morrow
Professor Ivo
Professor Stien
Adam Strange
Professor Haley
Dr. Sivanna
Mr. Mind
Hiro Okamura
Professor Cale
Anarky
Batman
Mr. Terrific
Alexander Luthor
Lobo
RIP Hunter
Gorilla Grodd
The Ultra Humanite
Epoch
Per Degaton
Pre-Crisis Barry Allen
Prometheus
I.Q.
Pre-Crisis Superman
Steel
Calculator
Oracle
Toyman
Ryan Choi
Tedd Kord
Will Magnus
Gizmo
Abra Kadabra
Monsieur Mallah (The Brain)

PC superman is obviously the winner here.

Alex luthor

everybody else

Braniac 13

Not going to mess with ordering the entirety of that, rather long, list. But imo either Brainiac 5 or Rip would be at the top.

Did I miss anyone important?

Batman 1 million.

That's a... really long list. Maybe break it down into groups first?

I'm not too sure who belongs where, though.

Superman. He's not the smartest though.

Busiek did some interesting things with Superman during his run.

PC Superman beats him, though. He was smarter than all the scientists on earth. Put together.

I forgot Thinker.

Don't worry about that, just give some manageable chunks, which can then be combined later.

Post Crisis Superman is still a genius on the level of Terrific and Batman, though. His fields are just different.

Ok, here goes.

Top tier (Super genius):Alexander Luthor, RIP Hunter, Brainaic, TO Morrow, Ivo, Ray Palmer, Batman 1M, PC Superman, PC Captain Comet, Ted Kord, Will Magnus, and Dr. Sivanna.

Mid tier or genius: Anarky, Gizmo, Batman, Holt, Toyman, Calculator, Mr. Mind, Chief, Lord Havok, Stien, Haley, Ultra Humanite, IQ, Steel, Gizmo.

Low tier: Cale, Oracle, Adam Strange, Hiro, Grodd, Prometheus, etc...

Unknowns, Epoch, Lord of Time, Abra Kadabra, and Monsieur Mallah.

Sports medicine and communications.

By 'break it into chunks' I meant, like, just give us 10 to rate sequentially.

I gotta say there's a lot in those tiers I don't think works. Holt's smarter than Kord/relatively close to him, and TO Morrow and Magnus are not in the same category as Brainaic.
