Why Superman is the Greatest.

[Mike]

No he doesnt punch guys in to a paste like he could and when he does its only bad guys in his weight class, I dont even see whats your point , he holds back and will not use his full range of powers to fight other hero characther.

If Batman got some super armor and a krypronite ring to fight Superman , Superman will make sure he doesnt hurt Bruce (probably try to restrain him or try to dissarm him) while Bruce will try to at least KO Superman (if Supes did that he will run the risk of killing Batman) , this could lead to Superman losing the fight (edit I think Superman wins BTW).

Im just saying comic logic makes more sense than VS topic logic (Superman will cut Batman head by flying at super speed) .

Yeah the thing is while it's unrealistic that Superman would rip someone's head off, it's also unrealistic he would just let someone whup his ass when he has a million ways to end the fight instantly. It ultimately ends up as an excuse for fans to have a "logical" reason as to why there guy wins. In any scenario even if Clark wants to play nice he can KO batman thousands of times faster than he can react if he needs to.

It's just silly to me to see these scenarios where people are like "nah bro superman would be to nice so Batman would beat him to death" Yeah probably not though, even playing nice he can incapacitate a human before they can react. Writers ignoring power sets so a fight can be more interesting shouldn't carry over to an analytical assessment of their abilities.

Prime is a sick version of Superman..

Hes, well, Superman...... plus he'll kill anyone in his path...

He brutally kicked everyones ass in the Green Lantern titles. It was the most badass Superman ever seen.. Legit fucked up everyone.

ION
The entire Green Lantern Corps
Sinestro Corps
Destroyed Anti Monitor
All earths heroes, (killed a whole bunch of them)

Took a Guardian to give his life to stop him. This is what Superman could be (actually Clark is more powerfrul) If he wanted too show his full potential..

You cant really defeat him, plus Clark isn't insane, making him even more of a threat. Superman is the real deal. Kryptonite or not. Hed kill anyone before they even got the chance to use it, if he wanted too..

 

[choke you]

Batman is the best imo. No real super powers just sweet ass gadgets and tough as nails. He would kryptonite slap teh superman into next week.

 

[berimBOWLoh]

superman def the most badass Jewish hero out there.

 

[FyrFytr998]

Only Dr.Strange, and Silver Surfer stand a chance against Superman in the MCU. unless we start matching him up against the Celestials, or the Beyonder or something

Bro. Stop. Molecule Man can literally turn Superman into Kryptonite.......or a tampon. Depends on his mood.

Supes is in fact not the most powerful in DC. Dr. Manhattan is DC's version of Molecule Man. Ask Rorsarch and the Vietnamese. There is no attack Superman could mount that Manhattan would either not see coming or could not defend. #facts

Also Hyperion is the MCU Superman.

Superman is GOAT

I approve of this post.

How this point is even debateale is a little disconcerting tbh.

Dr.Manhattan would pose significant problems to superman during a fight. I guess there are more guys than just silver surfer and dr strange that would pose problems to supes in the MCU


This poll does show how far ahead DC's characters are in popularity than Marvels top characters.

Eh this is why most forums that debate this stuff seriously default to bloodlusted versions. Once you factor in the feels you can make an argument for any character to beat any other character regardless of power set. Boy scout rep or no he's put people down hard when he's needed to. Not being able to win against someone he can one shot with 1/100 of his strength is silly. Especially when he's literally thousands of times faster at a minimum.


I mean spiderman is a teddy bear too but he's one punched the punisher tons of times.

Completely agree. And personally I think supermans enemies are cooler than batmans other than maybe ras al goul

Zod

Luthor

Brainiac

Darkseid

Are all more compelling and better villains than

Penguin,riddler,poison ivy,and bane.....something tells me I'm forgetting one of batmans villains....can't think of which one right now. Or is it I don't want to purposely start a nerd poop hurricane up in this mofo. Lol

I believe what you are saying is akin to this scene

"I want you to feel like you're doing well"

Superman is what happens when you give a 6 year old creative control.

Do you remember how that fight ended?

I do not envy the headache you will have in the morning. Sleep well and dream of large women.

while this is somewhat true, Dr. Manhattan is based on Captain Atom, and actually CA is a bad match up for just about everyone if all his powers are actually used in a fight

 

[SwamiLeoni]

Yea, regular Supes would get stomped by Dr. Manhattan, but I'm pretty sure CA Superman would stomp him.

 

[Primitivo]

One Punch Man.

 

[LilMountain]

Of those characters I'll say Green Lantern, otherwise maybe Punisher? Not sure really.
I really love Cammi in Avengers Arena/Undercover and want to see her in a comic more than anyone else right now

Spoderman obviously

You don't see Soprmon cartoons do you?

 

[fightdonttweet]

I'll have you know sir. there isn't a lot of Kryptonite lying about.

Superman can easily use his heat vision to incinerate Cap, and Batman.

Remove Logan's head from his body, then hurl it at mach 2 towards the sun.

as far as spider man he could rip his heart out and show it to him before he fades into the sweet bye and bye.

but he doesn't do any of that. He is a role model, and stalwart of old fashioned middle American family values.

This is why he's boring as shit. Bland, cookie cutter, cardboard character who's sole defining quality is being more powerful than everyone else.

He's so boring that writers have to come up with lame explanations like "he's holding back his powers"
