THE END!1!!!
Last post so let’s put a bow on it. As predicted:
COSMIC AWARENESS!!
So, the proof that she can find a weakness is a scan where she…FAILED to find a weakness? 😕 Sigh. Obviously she wouldn’t even know about EITHER weakness:
https://imgur.com/a/pwS9mJn
Yeah. Her vaunted CA “approximates human senses”. This also explains exactly why she would hear my whistle!
Anyway, she does gain more esoteric forms of knowledge:
https://imgur.com/a/YLAFlgd
NOTE--she was actively using her “cosmic awareness” to find aWEAKNESS in the shield, a COUNTER FREQUENCY.
She failed, miserably.
she even forgot why she was there! Lol AND look how long it took, and how much focus. Her CA isn’t something she just…calls up and suddenly she knows sh!t. lol In fact she only survived her failed trip into the shield because carol absorbed her OUT of it:
https://imgur.com/a/tOwISOV
LOL
Her CA has absolutely ZERO PRACTICAL BEARING on this match.
ZERO.
Anywho, just because:
RED SUN
This is hardly anything new to superman. For example:
https://imgur.com/a/Hc8SqLc
Lol ridiculous.

You can see from the above that the effects of a red sun are hardly instant. Even if you somehow buy the fact that he can, somehow, use CA to figure out red sun weakness, i’d still have loads of time to fight off the effects.
As for the planet that he mentions moving under a red sun:

It was krypton, via heat vision. again, a crazy feat while weakened.
KRYPTONITE
I could say “see above”:

Weakened by k-nite above, he STILL withstands a NUKE blast. Also demonstrates his durability to radiation.

In the fires of apokalips above, wearing a k-nite ring. And this issue (i’ll direct you to the issue because he fights the whole issue after having been injected, TWICE, with LIQUID k-nite). Shows just how much power he is capable of retaining when exposed to k-nite:
http://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Action-Comics-1938/Issue-816?id=26247#14
He was dying for several issues after that until the culmination of the arc in action 825. A very good run btw, if you’ve not read it. And here:
https://imgur.com/a/2sKVumV
Stuns brainiac that he can still use his power.
And of course:

Surviving doomsday clone+k-nite=crazy uber durability.
And there are plenty of others feats, as impressive and more. None of what i have shown should be considered outliers! This isn’t an opinion (at least not a bazied, er, biased one). I challenge you to check respect threads. I’ve left a LOT of the best ones out. Even if you buy that monica can somehow know my weaknesses (she can’t) it’s not even remotely close to meaning things are over for me. I just thought it would be cool to show people that red sun and k-nite=/=insta-wins against superman like so many seem to think.
DURABILITY

lol Anyway, a YOUNG superman survives a SUPERNOVA:
https://i.imgur.com/Y4NRvE2.jpg
Resists full on matter manipulation:
https://imgur.com/a/eX4IS
If matter manipulators fail to affect his cell structure, not seeing how monica can reliably do so…
And of course, MEGGADDON:
https://imgur.com/a/aHR4A
Even enough anti-sunlight to wreck half a galaxy doesn’t end him. or this one—takes on the cumulative suffering of BILLIONS of beings:
https://imgur.com/a/5AHNMzl
and as I said before, his insides are as invulnerable as his outsides:
https://imgur.com/a/DJhv3SR
he’s got a NUCLEAR REACTOR inside him, that SPLITS ATOMS! lol
And his brain is just as invulnerable:
https://imgur.com/a/HYdQ6Jo
lol shakes of hemorrhages. Also similar in theory to the aliens scans I showed earlier on. People expanding in him and getting crushed for their troubles.
As far as more traditional durability showings: superman v luthor. A lot of scans, but worth reading. Short story, luthor becomes damn near all powerful and after some soul searching, decides he would rather kill superman than use his new power positively. Action 899 and 900 to fill in the blanks if you need more.
https://imgur.com/a/HUfgSH6
The first few blasts superman tanked from luthor, when he still had ALL his powers were ludicrous. Does anyone REALLY think monica can generate THAT level of power? A few others, including a point-blank radiation blast from captain atom, a ground zero NUKE explosion from Neutron (both of which highlight his radiation resistance), a massive GL attack and even entropy and the omega effect:
https://imgur.com/a/gLgnAD4
Again, a random assortment, not even CLOSE to high balling. Honestly, WITHOUT RED SUNLIGHT OR K-NITE SHE HAS NO RELIABLE WAY OF TAKING ME OUT.
Hell, even WITH them, I have time to defend and react.
Something else I’ve seen bazie go on about—Superman’s vulnerability to electricity:
https://imgur.com/a/4HHf1Ko
a WEAKENED, BRYNE Superman took several full-on shots (including one right to his head) from Livewire and was fine. It hurt, but that’s it. And 10 gigawatts=9 SIMULTANEOUS lightning bolts...
I mean, the dude, has voluntarily turned himself into an ELECTROMAGNET ffs:
https://imgur.com/a/Ut6X8OA
Electricity won’t do it either. His best bet, and best scan, is the MAKER scan, where he drains Richards:
https://imgur.com/a/3iLyqF2
I could say—“she’s never done that while moving at the speed of light!!1!” lol But fact is, in order to even ATTEMPT something like that, he’d need to (a) get close to me, and (b) get inside me, and we know he tried to do that as…light already. Beyond that, draining isn’t always a sure-thing either:
https://imgur.com/a/Jiu9qLp
Polaris and his insane other personality Repulse BOTH drain him of sunlight and attack him via the EM spectrum throughout, yet he’s still using HV and catching cars. It’s perhaps the best equivalent we can get as to how someone like monica might do. Monica lacks the ability to manipulate EM energy at distance though. As for the EMP comment, Repulse didn’t really know what she was talking about:
https://imgur.com/a/YbiNvRE
so, yeah, EMP (which monica can’t generate anyway…) would also fail. His durability against EM-related energy is enormous overall. So:
MY PLAN REVISITED
My plan is about as simple as it gets. Stun her with (1) a surprise EMP which worked on panel, or (2) a HV blast that changes her frequency (SEE BELOW), then I (a) trap her, (b) cancel her, (c) punch her hard light form into unconsciousness. 👆
He spent a lot of time talking about ironman for some reason, but I explained in the first post why I showed that scan, and his armor<<<<the shield superman can generate. And, of course, she’s stunned, so…she wouldn’t be moving. /shrug
Anyway, to the above, we can now add (d) absorb the life out of her, violently blast her a$$ OUT of me, THEN punch her hard light lights out, as was shown in post 2. That’s what she gets for trying to enter me as light. 😐
Here are a couple more scans showing how capable of absorbing her he is:
https://imgur.com/a/bSJULCP
he forcibly absorbed rampage’s energy to get stronger. He does the same here with evil star’s attacks then ends him with his own energy (sound familiar?):
https://imgur.com/a/Lfq5IWl
if she tries getting inside superman, in ANY WAY, she’s in for a whole lot of trouble….
But are there others options? We’ve seen HV work on intangible foes (and we KNOW she can be disrupted). But did you know, as mentioned, that HV can also REVERSE EM radiation:
https://imgur.com/a/vCwv2Il
so I could, again, surprise her with that tactic, and forcibly change her frequency then take her out.
I also mentioned I could just EVADE her for as long as needed. here (I showed this but did not highlight this fact) we see him simply outracing radiation:
https://imgur.com/a/Pk1hONl
not surprising given how much faster than light he can be, but he WAS very weakened when he pulled that off…
and to again reaffirm the effectiveness of a vibrational/counter frequency attack:
https://imgur.com/a/U7m4CJR
he…basically cancelled out an hallucination. Lol seems pretty apt. 👆 and his counter—she can outrun sound. Sigh…. Again, her CA approximates human senses, and she would have no idea I was going to…whistle at her and destroy her, or just vibrate and dissipate her as I mentioned in my first post.
One last quick thing—I’ve used post crisis, 52 and rebirth superman, because, well, they are all one at this point:
https://imgur.com/a/GldudRq
check out ACTION 976 for full details. 👆
And that’s it. Hopefully, despite the idiocy, you maybe learned a couple things about superman, his versatility and ability to adapt to fighting different types of characters. Maybe you saw some scans you haven’t seen, or haven’t seen for a long time, at least. My opponent not withstanding, it was fun looking back at some of superman’s cooler feats and trying to show his more esoteric, and less explored abilities. Thanks to the judges for wading through this and apologies to the forum in general for the debacle this turned into. 👆
