    with invincible season 2 releasing, we will likely be getting a taste of just how powerful omni-man and mark really are. However since invincible vs superman has been getting some traction because of an interview the great robert kirkman made, I’d like to remind everyone just how powerful superman is by using some very basic scaling
    thank you for watching, hope you had a good time watching this

    After digging a little deeper, it looks like the author of invincible actually never said invincible wins, it was taken out of context by fans. He actually says he thinks Superman is much more experienced than him at any point in the series

      Also, you’re right, he can’t just say invincible is stronger because he said so because he’s not the author of Superman, that’s why we have power scaling… but who is that author?
      There are so many different authors for Superman creating so many different Superman’s, you can’t power scale that to any character because you can just pick and choose either the strongest or the one that fits the narrative the best.
      If I were an author, what stops me from creating an version of the Teletubbies so incredibly powerful they’d beat every iteration of Superman at once without batting an eye, back it up with some feats and call it a day? Nothing, because that’s how these comic debates work. If my comic gains enough traction, it’s apperantly ‘cannon’

      Nah superman is a boring hero. They literally needed to nerf him in order to make him more appealing. Maybe he was cool 80 years ago when a flying dude in tights was still new but there's so many better written and more interesting heroes in the market than superman at this point. It's fine if you think he's cool but there's a reason DC isn't popula as popular as they used to be. They're held back by superman. He's the ace up their sleeve. There's hardly ever any real threat cause the question is always there "why not just call superman?" Like there's borderline no reason for their to be any other heroes within the DC universe because of superman.

      alright superman simps, please try and pay attention. the superman character is written by a multitude of writers, many of whom are morons. this means no character consistency. ultimately we have to aggregate the character, separate out the nonsense. And since superman was killed by doomsday, he does have physical limits. So he can't actually hold a black hole in his hand, or a nonsense concept like a book with infinity pages. grow up. learn to analyze like an adult instead of a fanboi child. the viltrumites are an attempt to create a realistic, constant kryptonian concept, ergo, superman vs omni-man is a close enough matchup, with Thragg (or an older invincible) being a match.

    It’s worth pointing out that a lot of people try to “subvert” Superman by having “Evil Superman” because “Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely” and all that. What they forget is that Superman is already the subversion of that trope. Evil versions are just playing the trope straight. Superman’s entire thing is that he’s just Clark Kent with as much power as he needs to help those in need. Superman is never interesting because of how much Kal-El of Krypton can lift, but how Clark Kent of Smallville (The Big Blue Boy Scout) chooses to interact with the world.
    And for those who say that a man with all that power choosing to be good is unrealistic, perhaps instead of making Superman more like us, we try to make the world more like he would, because isn’t that the whole point?

My only problem with the episode is that after he knocks Darkseid into the street and the camera cuts back to him, he's not even scratched. It completely undermines what they were going for.

      The character himself, what he represents (the immigrant coming to America), his corny optimism and the way he use his intelligence rather than his vast power is certainly interesting. But the collage of random, convenient powers, its wild inconsistancies and most of all, the editorial directive stating that he must win no matter who he faces makes him the most boring character of all, tactically speaking. It suits him better being a self-centered, insecure dick.

      Actually, Atom Eve could unironically beat Superman because of her abilities. For starters, she can't die. If she comes at the edge of death, her full potential is unleashed, which also instantly heals her. Secondly, in that very state she has literal cosmic level power similar to Dr. Manhattan. She's never lost in that state, however it literally just lasts a few moments so we've never gotten to see the peak of her power. This is an umbiased opinion btw. I'm literally going along with the understanding that she's basically a Green Lantern Manhattan because she literally sees how reallity is shaped and builds constructs based on that information. Obviously, she's not god mode all the time, but she's definitelly able to beat everyone in the Invincible universe theoretically.

      From what I’ve seen of Robert Kirk man is similar to that of George r Martin. The man wrote these works like invincible to be the “realistic” portrayal of superheroes. Basically the characters are more fleshed out out and realistic, however similar to game of thrones they somehow lack something that always makes them inferior to the original. Face it, no matter what people say people will always come back to superman and lord of the rings and invincible and GoT will fall into insignificance or barley hang on to relevance. I think it’s because we as human love stories that show the best of what we can be rather than a relatable story.
      Also I’ll be Frank here the story are sometime edgy for the sake of it. Mark getting brutally assaulted by Annisa or the entire character of Ramsay Bolton. These stories if you took the edge away are pretty boring or seem to go far down a rabbit hole it didn’t need to.

    I pretty much agree with your take on Superman. Especially the take that the writer/creator of one hero can't be the deciding factor that his character can beat the character of someone else's creation. I remember back before DC started trying to explain Supes powers so they "played nice" with physics, Supes was ultra-powerful.
    Now I haven't kept up with DC since Crisis when Supergirl gave up her life to save Superman, so maybe they got away from that, but I know in the CW's Supergirl, they still had that going on...Like Supergirl couldn't fly in space.
    But anyway, I was passing through an airport and stopped in one of the little shops and the guy had a number of comics for sale, so I had picked them up. One of them was interesting relating to Superman's power of flight. Superman and Supergirl had to work together to stop a huge asteroid from destroying Earth. Superman was dazed, and when he finally threw off the effects Supergirl was no where to be seen. He's able to calculate which direction Supergirl was thrown after stopping the asteroid so he takes off flying that direction.
    He's not seeing her with his vision and he keeps going faster and faster. He going so fast he smashing through barrier after barrier separating the different realities until there is only 1 barrier left. But he sees her up ahead of him at this point and he continues after her. She passes on through this final barrier before he reaches her. He's just about to break it when The Spectre appears before him telling him to stop. But Superman doesn't and collides into him.
    He "falls" and lands on a landscape of some kind, and Spectre appears there with him. Supes is pleading with him to let him get her, but Spectre is like "You can't. She's passed through the final veil and no living being may see the other side." Or something to that effect. He breaks down and finally says something like, "You got to save her." And Spectre is like, "All you had to do was ask." And Supergirl appears in his arms.

Supes entertainment factor comes from his struggles to be a good person and human in a world made of paper where he could wake up one morning and call himself a god and there would be very little anyone could do to stop him.

    Darkseid has physicals better than Superman, Omega Beams likely one shot Viltrumites seeing as some random space chump’s gun scared Omniman.
    Braniac is a heavily upgraded Robot, who was killing Viltrumites left n right. His “drones” give Superman a bad time, when he physically fights the original he just laughs at his punches. Viltrumites are doomed.
    Which leads to Doomsday, who has physicals above Superman also, mindless killing machine with no morals and will be immune to whatever they try as it’s been done before.

      Invincible demolish Supes? Unlikely as he's almost as big a boyscout as Supes is. Other viltrumites could easily kill supes and they'd do it before Supes even realized the threat he was facing. Supes not only lacks the killer instinct the Viltrumites have(his own ethical code prohibits him from killing even) the Viltrumites have no such weakness and would strangle him with his own guts for fun. They also on average possess EXPONENTIALLY greater martial skill and talent than Supes, who is a bralwer that relies on his powers more than martial ability. Each individual Viltrumite has literal centuries of experience too, while supes has a few decades tops.
      Supes loses and badly, and fast. The only reason you supersimps dispute it is because you're fanbois and not rational people.

      ​@@meganoobbg3387Exactly. Superman, Hulk, Thanos guys like that are way above the reach of Invincible or any other viltrumite.

      ​@@Indubidably0That's the type of BS that the author of the Invincible comic has said in that interview. He has also said that Invincible can beat The Hulk because Hulk can't fly (even if he has easily trounced guys who can fly) or Thanos without the Infinity Gaunlet (he doesn't need it to one-shot Invincible, Omni-Man or Thragg)

    so that's the guy who wrote invincible? With absolutely no respect for the source material he stole from. Classy, another reason not to bother with that comic anymore.

    Should also be noted that Batman actually did teach Superman martial arts at one point and considering his brain works faster than most, with probably Batman being the rare exception to being faster thought processes (as he is one of the only characters to dodge Darkseid vision, and it was only his physical limitations as a human that orevents him from landing those dodges perfectly) Superman likely knows at least as far as the pure combative side of Bruces martial arts knowledge, everything the Dark Knight does.
    I mean he lobotomized himself at one point (or was that bizarro? I can't remember for sure, but even if so, he's barely equal to Supes) so he i mean, he hits a Viltrimite on a pressure point with even a thousandth of his power, well... Fist of the North Star comes to mind 😂

      alright superman simps, please try and pay attention. the superman character is written by a multitude of writers, many of whom are morons. this means no character consistency. ultimately we have to aggregate the character, separate out the nonsense. And since superman was killed by doomsday, he does have physical limits. So he can't actually hold a black hole in his hand, or a nonsense concept like a book with infinity pages. grow up. learn to analyze like an adult instead of a fanboi child. the viltrumites are an attempt to create a realistic, constant kryptonian concept, ergo, superman vs omni-man is a close enough matchup, with Thragg (or an older invincible) being a match.

    People say superman is a boring character because they as pitiful excuses for men would if given superman's powers be evil, selfish, and childish. So they think him as unbelievable and instead form an affinity twords an omni man or homelander type character. Superman is realistic for a true man who is given power, not a athiest boy
