It may have had some sort of radiation which he has a weakness to, I believe.

Marvel strength levels are just not on the same level as Current Supes .... Their Strongest are at most on a Wonder Woman level, with the exception of Skyfathers , and Sentry
This cat is buggin...
Wonderwoman level? You joking right?

Our Gladiator moves your fancy planets too, besides being able to achieve 100x the speed of light during flight.
And that' just one example of mad strength, if you want I can name more.

The point is that it was held after he was defeated by an entier roster he stomped earlier on. God knows what exactly happened for him to land and be kept there. And nope, Superman couldn't do the same. Look at what happened in JLA/Avengers continuity, he got punked by a dogpile while Nefaria shrugged it.
It is completely PIS that a guy who just laid waste to a team would be kept in the raft just like any other inmates without some proper measures that would have been taken.
agreed...

Iron man was there but the rest weren't esepcailly the two strongest characters e.g. Wonderman and Herc .... I also have reservations about the realism of that event .... Plus he had been knocked about by a Wonder Woman strength character with a 'mystical' piece of metal ... It probably did a lot of prior damage ... In tern your point is mute !
You have reservations about the realism of the event, but you have no problem excepting superman lifting 18000+ ton subs with his pinky or picking up islands,
even in a world of make believe, that's rediculous, this same guy(superman) does the rediculous and then get's knocked out by the Parasite. LOL!
Point is someetimes we have to cut these guys some slack due to badly written stories.

Well so much for He-man being the goof of strength, I thought He-Man throwing
500+ Billion ton mountains around was the pinncle of stupidity, but if that's true(about Superman), I can bet you he's gonna get boring real quick, that nonsense works on abstacts and deities the likes of Celestials and what not, for an everyday character it get's boring.

Gladiator's one time 100x flight speed doesn't hold much wieght, it's a one time feat, while the forum is considered of consistant strength. For intesive purposes, it was a particularly powered up moment.

I disagree .... If written properly (which is rarely ) a God like Superman is just as interesting (if not, more so) than the Byrne esque realistic version !

True, but the Fantastic Four issues where he is able to amp his speed to move with Reed, Thor and everyone (who were using tech to move that fast. And they also comment that they've been working for 2 weeks and nothing else appears to have moved at all) backs up the fact that pretty much no one from Earth should be able to touch Glads, and that he could majorly speed blitz most opponents if he utilized his speed.

Yep, but Superman can do the same thing.
I'm not saying he's not fast, I'm saying he's not 100x lightspeed consistantly or even anything close to consistantly..It was a one shot feat.

I gave up a while ago, some issues still do it for me but in general, Supes has been duped.

I hear that, but then you should know that immediately before that he was chasing Skrulls through Hyper-Space, where one must travel faster than light to enter, was it 100x the speed of light or more? Who knows, but he definately can achieve faster than light speeds consistantly, as he's shown many times, even his bio says he has warp speed.
But the interesting thing that you posted was that it was a powered up moment,
I see it as a powered down moment, after all, he had just come out of Hyper Space, "unaided, without ship or guidance system" then contains an explosion that would have annihilated half the Solar System, and then zooms to earth at 100x the speed of light,
Look at what he did before performing that feat(100x speed of light), now think if he can't pull that off on any day at optimal condition.

God like stories always fail, they're only good in great stories with limited issues, because it gets boring quick to be all powerful.
But I'm sure you know this...
