Even though he is half of colossus... he has shown that he is class 100 durability and strength wise. One instance was him using his body, propelling it at tremendous speed knocking galactus off of his feat.
Then he is 1000s of times more faster than superboy... he has on panel proof of moving at 93000 mps. He also have wolverine healing factor, skills, and claws. Cyclops optic blast and beast agility along with additional strength from beast.
Let's not even forget that he could copy superboy powers and add it to his own. Please don't say that he can't because he copied the fantastic 4 powers and he also copied deadpool powers and he isn't even a mutant.
Give me an example of low balling dc characters... I would at least think that people would say that I'm lowballing marvel since I think supes could pull a 7/10 against current thor and also fussed that supes would give thanos hell and in a mele fight supes would get the majority.
I guess since I'm not saying that supes could pull a majority against galactus that means that I hate dc characters... well here ya go... supes 9/10 against a well fed galactus. You all don't say s*** when H1 scream out that superman would blitz odin and combo to ko him. I have yet vto see you all say that he is biased towards marvel. Or how about avlon or juanti giving dc characters the win against marvel characters. I truly do not understand.
he is a "changeling" as guys like multiple man he was born with his powers being active aside from that his powers were a result of his father's experimentation.
I had no idea that Mimic was that dynamic, still Superboy has some pretty impressive tanking, strength, and speed feats in his belt clip. I'm leaning towards Conner for now.
but changelings are mutants too. Mutant is an umbrella term for several manifestations of the celestials' work - the superpowers that lay dormant in humanity's bllodline. This includes the lupines, the changelings, the externals, the neos, etc. some stories call them different philums.
