#superman #blackadam #powerscaling #dceu #henrycavill
The DC Universe has always been home to some of the best and brightest heroes in fiction - Wonder Woman, Batman, Aquaman, Green Lantern - but one stands above the rest as the original, the symbol of hope, the man of steel, Superman.
He’s been gone for some time, but thanks to the dedication of Dwyane The Rock Johnson, Superman has made his full return to the DC Extended Universe and the stage has been set for a battle between the terrifying Anti-Hero Black Adam and the Ultimate Superhero, Superman.
In today’s video I will be updating our video from 2019 and detailing the full power of the Man of Tomorrow. As always, I will cover Superman’s Strength, Durability, Speed, and other unique skills and abilities to determine just how powerful he truly is within the DCEU - but before we continue, I would like to note that I will be going over what is canon, and unfortunately, that means Joss Whedon’s inferior Justice League film, because whether we like it or not, that’s the current Canon in the DCEU unless the Flash changes something. Additionally, all calculations used in this video will be credited and listed in the description.
So, with all that said - How Powerful is Superman?

If you know, you know!!!
I definitely know.
😈
You should do an updated one on Thor. He fought Gorr who was stated to be able to kill everybody in Omnipotence City, including Celestials. Also, he resisted the Bifrost which was large star level according to calcs.
Gotta be knower
The lasso scene is not enough evidence to claim that Superman is resistant to magic, especially since Superman's mind wasn't fully restored at that point and we clearly see signs that the lasso is affecting Superman.
Superman has always been limitless, he’s always developing more power. As his father said, keep testing your limits, he has no limits. Even around kryptonite he always finds his inner strength to overcome it.
Practically his only limit is how much solar radiation he's absorbed
@@ZikedY only one version of him one story line saying one thing don’t change anything for the others see…. It’s a miltiverse
He is limitless as i see it, more so than Goku.
Reasons:
1: Has DNA combination possibilities of his entire race of which, as a sub-point, was and has been modified for centuries if not thousands of years. Genetic Modification was a huge priority of their race as it meant their survival and expansion into other worlds. Might as well say his DNA is primordial soup at its core.
2: As a symbol of Hope, like his father was trying to say, his limits are limitless as long as he keeps testing them. If he were to fall into darkness, his powers are probably not as stong and have limits. We learn from Green lantern core that Hope is the strongest power among this primordial soup of powers in the universe(s). As long as he has hope, he cannot have a limit to his power.
3: Being only born kryptonian in centuries probably was intentional. "clone tech" Instilled by the government to prevent uprisings and the yellow sun bathing was lost or secret knowledge and while needing tons of bodies to conquer and explore to cosmos and later then whilst star is dying you dont want people knowing they can go to a yellow sun and be a planetary weapon.
4: With abominations resurection, the soup in his DNA, i would think it say to say hes immortal essentially. At most would need a catalyst to make his soup bubble after hes "dead" hence the regen in space under the sun. The slow recovery whilst in the coffin underground, slowly absorbing radiation.
Base superman has clear limits and relies on solar radiation stored in his cells. Too much time away from the sun he gets very weak. Also depends on the writer. He is written so poorly there is no consistency with his weaknesses and strengths. Hulk has limitless strength and still has lots fights, superman has never been shown to have limitless power.
@@reddragon7762 great... but if they draw goku beating superman... then all that shvt you wrote is null and void.
I know many don't like Superman cause he's ridiculously OP, but the fact he is ridiculously OP and can swat aside the entire league without effort but stays humble n a protector of those weaker, is what makes him amazing. Cause any human with power like that, would fall to base desire and become objectively evil
YES, someone finally saw this without being blinded by batman propaganda
🙄🙄well if cops 👮🏻♀️ would stop shooting at us I wouldn’t think evil things 🧔🏾♂️
Exactly man. His abilities are what people know him for but his message is why people look up to him. The whole point of Superman is that it doesn’t matter if you have all the powers or none of them, what’s more important is being a good person
@@parkerwayneenforcersofjust4006 facts. It's humanity that makes him a hero. Not his powers.
yep that's what my comment was saying
I still believe all of the avengers and thanos could jump him at once, and he'd still win
No doubt.
Supermans speed is dangerous
He's a Wanda's victim
Wanda, doctor strange and maybe thor would be problematic
@@scerkann3966 doctor strange holds back alot as well so in character superman would put him to sleep and not kill him. The massive speed advantage speed blitz. Strange would see that superman is hope and superman won't kill him since he should be a boyscout now. Wanda gives off negative intent and superman has been shown to x-ray his opponents to see if they are about to attack or have bad intent. That's an automatic head he's punching off so Wanda would die. Thor would be supes best match physically. This will be a fun Brawl until superman smirks and freezes slowdinson in motion with his superior massive speed gap advantage. Once superman feels that hammer, he won't let thor breathe. Now if Wanda is to get a surprise attack on superman then it can work and game over. This all depends on if superman decides to abuse speed to the point where she won't even be able to get one attack out while her head is launched into the ground. Strange is a little slower than spiderman in reactions so supes can abuse speed on him too. Strange is dangerous because of his potential magic spells and hax. That's if you let him use it.
If you look at the rocks around him start to levitate when he's preparing to fly, that tells you that Superman is creating an anti-gravity field around him that enables him to fly. It's not a lower gravity, but generating a field that cancels out gravity and he can alter the strength of this field which allows him to levitate at different levels.
You are the person I’ve ever heard speak on that, damn good read my dude
I'd argue that it's a telekinetic ability, since it not only allows him to ignore gravity but to fly in any direction 360 degrees, and to extend this force to affect objects or people he touches - this is the standard explanation as to how he can carry a huge building that extends out either side of him without the building falling to pieces, aka the scene in Justice League.
@@adamjeayes6525 I would disagree though. If it were a telekinetic ability then the surrounding pebbles wouldn't of moved, only his body. Telekinesis is pretty precise and focuses on an actual object, whereas a gravity distortion field focuses on a certain volume of space, and that volume of space will inevitably include some fragments of the surrounding environment.
@@nazukeoya I'm not sure we can say that telekenesis is always precise - for film references look at the Jedi lifting multiple rocks in recent films, or Dark Phoenix affecting things all around her and ripping flesh apart. But I can see how you *could* think in that way, so let me ask how you explain a gravity distortion field enabling travel in all directions, or holding a huge building together or protecting a person that Supes is holding? It seems to me that Telekenesis would be a better explanation of holding a fragile human body safely, rather than a gravity distortion field that by your own explanation is less precise and therefore could harm them very easily. How would you explain these issues? Interesting to debate it btw - ultimately I'm not wedded to my idea if I can be convinced otherwise, just so far unconvinced.
Yea I heard something about a semi-telekinesis that helps distribution of force and is how he can fly. They kind of explain it the same way in "invincible". It's basically matter manipulation. How they can push off air and move and change direction instantly... I don't think there's an actual term for it ..
Superman had feats of strength in Man of Steel that were way more than anything Wonder Woman has ever done.
Yeah but Wonder Woman was stronger than all other appearances in BVS.
@@kylereese5841 ?
Clark Kent did not push the school bus out of the water, because the laws of physics cannot support such a feat - the weight of the water, plus the pressure of the water, and the weight of the bus would have either imploded the bus, popped all of the windows and seams, or caused other damage making it impossible to hold the bus together!!! Superman's "powers" are NOT physically based, but primarily telekinetic, which was literally established over 30 decades ago in the comic books!!! Then, due to sagging sales of DC's flagship comic book character, in 1986 DC agreed to allow artist/writer John Byrne to relaunch the Superman franchise with a revamped origin and by also making the character much weaker. They intentionally made Superman weaker because DC's writers were not smart enough to create storylines and characters equal to or greater than Superman's powers and intellect, and because the Superman "character" did not convey "the diversity of social awareness" openly represented by most of Marvel's comic book characters, especially the X-Men, Spider-Man, Iron Man, etc. The DC cinematic universe version of Superman does NOT represent the true, unbridled powers and intellect of the original comic book character. That's a shame.
Supes has always been more stronger/powerful than WW.
Superman was way above the power level of Wonder woman even on the first movie, not equal, not sure why they said otherwise,....because she was a woman?
Ah yes. It's him. The hierarchy of power in the DC universe.
Is that all DC fans care about? The "hierarchy of power"? Its like a fetish
@@scottengels4143 I'm a Marvel fanboy lol. I just think people are happy to see that Superman is back after 5 years.
Plus the quote is just funny. But yes, some fans are unbearable about "Superman strong" shit.
@@moronicgenius8971 People go nuts over power levels as if its an accomplishment, lol. All it takes is a writer to decide to make him that powerful. Any other writer can then say THEIR character is even MORE powerful, and so forth. Characters are whatever writers say they are. And that is how characters get to absurd levels of power. Superman fans fetishize his power like its real. And they just cannot accept Superman ever being defeated because it might mean - gasp! - that someone is more powerful than he is. NO character should be so powerful that you can just assume he would defeat any and every opponent. That is beyond boring. It seems Superman fans are more than a little childish in the way they need their fav to always be regarded as better than anyone else, no matter who. No other fan base needs that kind of patronization. Except perhaps Batman fans, who think planning and preparation are like magic spells that can always automatically overcome any problem. As if they need a hero to make them feel secure and make them believe that, no matter what the problem is, there is always a solution. Life aint like that. You have to learn how to lose and then move on from the loss. Heroes who never lose are boring and send the wrong message
@@scottengels4143 nah dc story's has more depth to them and is a lot darker than marvel
@@Crimebot02 Whats that got to do with wanking over fictional power levels and needing a character to be unbeatable? And "darker" is not necessarily better.
Superman's superhearing is telepathic in nature, channelled through his ears, that is why he can hear in space, where the is no atmosphere for sound to vibrate.
Actually.... Eau... Yes, that kinda makes sense 😐
This was the only reason I thought about for Superman's hearing. Out of all the powers he possesses his super hearing is the most ridiculous. How can you hear something hundreds of miles away and get there while it was happening. no matter how loud or soft sound can only travel at Mach 1. If he heard of Lois's fall from Smallville she would've died an hour ago no matter how fast Clark is.
@@zakariyahassan2173 Mach 1 is a lot faster in solids than it is in gases though. Not that it makes sense anyway because he is still hearing it way to fast.
@@zakariyahassan2173 it's not telepathic it's just sound. It's just his range of sound Is picked up over greater distances, just like an Eagle can hear far further than us and how dogs can hear different frequencies than us. Also sound does actually travel in space but it is absolutely miniscule. Props to his abilities of hearing it extremely well. What's mad is Chris reeve superman can make astronauts hear him when he talk in space outside the ship they're in lol
@@multiversal2023 I know it's not telepathic, obviously but it would've made so much sense if it were.
I always believed his real strength is his humanity. He represents our inner strength, we can have that mercy and humbleness as well. It's not the yellow sun that makes him special. It's his heart.
Thank God we don't have a real Superman. No human could possess such immense power and not abuse it. The beloved Kryptonian idealizes the best we'd love to be.
This is the best comment i have read in my entire life talking about Superman.
@@oloyedefemi6664fr
Thank you for speaking on how Superman is the most powerful being in the Universe.
Not even close. Darkseid is the strongest. Every version superman has fought has been a powered down avatar, true form Darkseid can't exist in the main universe in his true form or he would destroy the entire universe... and still just a simple avatar of Darkseid has slapped supes multiple times.
Did you even watch watchmen (2009)? Or watching the spectre animated movie?
@@empiremedia1675 no it hasn't some of them are the real darkseid and superman beaten darkseid before too so I'll say there equal
@@empiremedia1675I am a biggest darkseid fun even my pfp says it but if superman stops holding back then it's over
I'll he one of the most powerful beings in the universe
Thank you for not repeatedly mentioning his body hair in this one, I know that took restraint...
It really did
egh, chest hair is natural, especially if your over 30 years old.
@@NeonAnimeDreams Depends on your race and genetics.
@@controlman7490 With how thick and luxurious it was, I'd say his genetics are pretty good.
@@thebenis3219 thick manly chest hair for the win lol
Biggest issue I have with not letting Zach Snyder finish his trilogy is now we’ll probably never get to see Henry cavil Superman vs Darksied
If Justice League was released in the 90s, I would like to see Christopher Reeves Superman fighting Michael Ironside's Darkseid.
I think it'll still happen, just give it time.
Superman can't punch villains with his true power because he could destroy a whole city along with his foe.
Yes people say Superman is weak to magic and he resist while fighting the villains yes he resist because if he uses all his strength to fight he could destroy the planet what if Superman comes like Zod like a full kryptonian alien and be as evil as zod and even as no problem killing like black Adam do you think anyone on the planet or the universe will be able to stop him, Superman his the dark side and the light side just like the day and night he could probably destroy anyone that comes in his way if he chooses the dark side Superman his an alien but more human right now he as the strength of a human fighting like a human but if he towns to an alien not a full alien he still have the human skin but a full life of an alien I don’t think anyone will be able to stop him
@@festusugochi7571 There are characters like MMH and most especially Dr Fate who would be able to stop him.
@@peluminova2515 it's a known fact that superman reckons mm is the only being he wouldn't be able to defeat even if not holding back
@@danielmillward9947 Whose mm
I love how no one puts together that he has telekinetic powers. He has telekinetic powers. This is how he can hear sounds faster than the speed of sound. He just internalizes his ability to sense all movement around him faster than the speed of light as sound.
You have a point there, that I hadn't previously considered. Just how, exactly, does Superman hear Lois Lane falling from a building hundreds of miles away in real time?
And the way he can hold things that are huge yet fragile... why don't all those things always fall apart?
Simple: he doesn't know he has telekinesis, so it's being applied along subtle manifestations which merely enhances/amplifies his "natural" feats...plus flight.
@@ravissary79 As Professor James Kakalios says, _"Superman wouldn't be saving an orphanage full of children. He would just be holding two bricks with a trail of rubble behind him."_
@@NarwahlGaming precisely, and because this doesn't happen heavily implies he's a subconscious touch TK user.
@@ravissary79 TK. the best designer drug.
I'm sure someone has already mentioned this example of Superman strength. In the movie Superman Returns, he literally carves out an entire Island loaded with kryptonite and lifts it out of the ocean and into outer space, while a shard of Kryptonite remains embedded in him from an earlier stabbing by Lex Luthor. That's pretty damn impressive.
25:15 In some iterations, he is known for having an indomitable will. So, it may be more of that rather than magic resistance.
I have to agree.
This is what I was thinking. He was also a bit out of his mind due to being recently resurrected so it was easier for him to ignore Wonder Woman than if she asked him normally.
That’s more likely since the comic book incarnation has an indomitable Will strong enough to wear the lantern rings.
@@navonmyhand7999that’s what I was thinking. He’s so feral for lack of a better word that he completely brushes off the pain that resisting the Lasso causes
Bro Henry cavil supes is just ridiculous at this point, will be interesting to see that throw down with rock/adam but he's incredibly powerful and we've barely scratched the surface of his power
Agree,he destroyed Steppenwolf. No prob, just fooling around making jokes fighting this guy.
@@SantasGAINdeer He did, and he wasn't impressed.
I feel like Black Adam is near what superman was in batman v superman but at this point I don't even know, I feel like black Adam might get owned, superman keeps getting more power as the story progresses, stephanwolf was like a child to him, he's nearly as fast as the flash now who's been shown faster than the speed of light and able to turn back time to at least a small degree, his strength is beyond tectonic plate shifting level and probably fast approaching Christopher reeve superman's moon pushing strength, I like black Adam but superman man is pretty OP at this point, the fight if it were to go down would be kind of one sided....
there should be no way black adam can beat superman but lets see what happens. As mentioned above supes is really powerful we have to see if DC will reveal it when he goes against black adam. I dont think black adam should be allowed to win maybe they put it as black adam is defeated but then joins the team after for a bigger threat. The end!
Supes is so Oped,it's not funny.
A really good example of just how strong he was after he was resurrected was when WW threw her lasso at him and he caught it with one hand.
She then pulled with both hands, both her feet were braced against the marble steps, while she leaned backwards, using all her strength.
He pulled her to him with one hand, breaking the marble steps her feet were braced against.
its funny when people say with all there strengt,how do you know that? all we saw is that she was trying to buy some time
@@Marcustheseer we can see that she is leaning her into body into the opposite direction, which means full strength
Tbf, that’s more of a Supes vs marble than it is Supes vs WW. She might have been able to pull harder/resist more if she was standing on indestructible ground. Stronger than him? No, but that scene is a bit misleading
His psyche was more unrestrained then as he usually always holds himself back even against most enemies other than Darkseid and Doomsday
Weren’t those marble steps were built by the government and therefore the lowest bidder? So, are they really the best marble steps ever built? Just sayin’.
You don't mention Superman's intelligence level. I remember reading Superboy comics in the Sixties. He'd be in high school, taking a math test, and deliberately flubbing a couple of questions so he'd only get a 98% grade. A lot of storyline is spent on Batman's cleverness and creativity, but I think Superman has always kept his true intellect in check -- otherwise he really would appear so godlike as to be virtually indistinguishable from the real thing.
I read a Superman comic in the 80s and he matched his intelligence against a super computer and easily beat it
Clark Kent did not push the school bus out of the water, because the laws of physics cannot support such a feat - the weight of the water, plus the pressure of the water, and the weight of the bus would have either imploded the bus, popped all of the windows and seams, or caused other damage making it impossible to hold the bus together!!!

That's a shame.
@@wondertrip You're both wrong and right. He has TK, but he also has immense strength. When he runs he doesn't use TK, when he punches people he doesn't TK. When he flies he uses a combo of TK and the weaker gravity around a yellow star to do so.
@@wondertrip Your argument about water pressure would only hold with a bus full of air while underwater.
However this is not the case, the bus is full of water, so the pressure inside is the same as outside. There is no reason for the bus to collapse under the pressure of water.
And yes, a bus full of water may be quite heavy, but let's not forget that a bus is not a box he has to push against the ground, it has wheels ! It certainly makes it quite easier to move around (Did you know that the strenght of an adult is enough to move a train wagon on rails ?). Granted the bus is certainly stuck in mud, so it's not that much better.
However, when it comes to handling whole boats, ships of all kind, or even whole buildings, there's no arguing that it would physically be impossible with pure strenght, as the pressure exerted by his hands sustening the whole weight of the thing would have them rip right through the material. There must be something else maintaining the integrity of the building as a whole, and some telekinetic power is a good answer. With the added advantage that telekinesis can also explain why he is able to fly.
Finally, as a quick reminder as to why Superman as been weakened : Old school Superman has been at one time subjected to sneeze powder. In order to prevent a catastrophic result, he quickly flew to another star system, and his sneeze completely oblitered the whole system. Yep, it was that ridiculous.
@@theslay66 Most respectfully, you're ignoring what DC Comics "officially" released over 30 years ago in their Marvel-like encyclopedia of the DC Universe, and John Bryne said conveyed the same message, Superman's powers are telekinetic and the Earth's yellow sun made his skin invulnerable. Plus, "we" don't know how deep the bus was, or the amount of water pressure, or if the construction of the bus caused the windows to shatter, etc. The "Old school Superman" was easily smart and more powerful, and much more interesting than Superman - Version 2.0, or Version 3.0, etc.
"He'll be a god to them"-Jor El Enough said.
And he was.And still is.
Yes despite what people say and what superman thinks he is a god
My uncle, after 1 shot of Hennessy, could one-shot Superman
This comment made my asthma flare up 😂
LMAO 🤣 Hilarious 😂
I believe him.
What if Superman git drunk and one shots your uncle? 😞
I actually believe him. It’s the confidence for me
You did overlook one thing, one power that Superman has that also separates him from his heroic peers: his morality. The innate goodness instilled in him by his earthly parents has always been his core. In the comics, he is often referred to as the "Big Blue Boy Scout,' oddly in a derogatory way, most often by other heroes. His appreciation for the lives of all living beings drives who he is. (I am speaking here more of his persona in the print media. I did have a moral problem with this character in the DCEU breaking Zod's neck.)
Being the only living kryptonian made him appreciate life itself.
It's also why it fundamentally changes who he is in the man of steel movie, he didn't just kill zod, be chose NOT to bring kryptonian back, comic book Superman never has that choice, which is why he loves (the idea of) humanity
That's why the line in 'Superman and Lois' is so on point;
_"Your father isn't Superman because he has powers. He's Superman because he grew up here, in Smallville."_
@@NarwahlGaming & now smallville would be derided as a cesspool of toxic masculinity 😕
The moment that you referring to was actually so important and if you remember correctly , he didnt want to kill him ,he wait till it was inevitable even for him, cuz Zod was trying to kill family of humans .For me this was rly big moment specially because first he know what this mean(and i mean murder),he knew that will make him last kryptonian ,he knew that this mean breaking his moral position witch is one of the many amaysing this about Superman . He still choose it eater way to Protect us.
I had no problem with Supes killing Zod,Zod was going to kill that family and how was Supes/US government going to imprison Zod if Supes didn't kill him ??? There was way anyone could imprison Zod,then he'd start his rampage all over again.
The codex of krypton is within him. He is the whole of Krypton’s might.
The codex is a detail I don’t remember from the comics. But it’s meaning/significance hasn’t been been elaborated so far in the movies. So that’s as good a take as I’ve heard so far!
Yes he is all of that until he fights Batman then he forgets half of his abilities and refuses to actually use any intelligence he actually has
That’s what happens when you have writers who don’t Superman
The difference when the two fight is Batman is trying to kill Superman, Superman is not. Ironically the only person that has made Batman break his one rule consistently is Superman. And he still has yet to actually kill Superman.
You never read comic huh? Superman never want to hurts others. Haters believe media more than superman in BvS and also in real life
It's not what he can do, it's what he doesn't do, that makes him the greatest superhero
I think even more underutilized than freeze breath is his ability to go beyond X-ray vision, which is seeing on the subatomic level, meaning he can literally see your DNA and what makes you tick, and how your cells react to different things, so he could defeat you so that you’d never regenerate, even if you did have that ability.
I always wanted to see a movie where they’d just let Superman be Superman, showing how much effort he has to put in every day to not break the earth, much less, humans.
And maybe even acquiring an immunity to Kryptonite because of constant exposure.
they keep forgetting that he can fly around world to turn back time
Kingdom Come Superman is described as having rage like the devil and can't be stopped by pretty much nobody. Some superheroes dog piled him and Starman was using gravity to make him weigh thousands or millions of times more than normal and he still overpowered them all.
@@connordutton674 , Superman Prime 1 million, is the most powerful Superman, so far.... Look it up! No weakness, other than himself, maybe not even that, LOL!
@@chronoszeus9267 no
Yea he's been shown to be able to burn out specific cells in his enemies after identifying them them with his various vision powers, it's really sick what he can do to you if he decides to not hold him self back or to certain moral standards.
It is kinda crazy how powerful Superman is in comparison to his own verse and the majority of MCU. Like his AP is high asf but his speed rly kills iy
Sure but speed isn’t that lacking in MCU, both Carol and Ikaris have FTL feats. We’ve also never seen DCEU Supes be a planet buster while we have see MCU characters destroy planets.

@@TheHighborn don’t know, Jor-El said “it is forbidden “
I remember the old table top rpg of the DCU. Superman was stated as having a loss of invulnerability to magic not a weakness to it like kryptonite. That would mean that a magical weapon would be able to cut him just like a normal person without invulnerability.
Excalibur,& Spear of Destiny come to mind
I've guessed that Superman's ability of flight is either some for of telekinesis or his body has the ability to manipulate the gravity around, to include propelling itself through it. I'm inclined to believe the latter, because in Man of Steel, Superman's second attempt of flight shows the ground rippling and rocks levitating of the ground. This shows that his body can manipulate the gravity around it and even other objects can be affected to the point of being weightless.
Another example of this feat I would refer to is from the original Christopher Reeves Superman movie. When he took Lois up and let her experience the feeling of flight, this Superman understood his ability and how it would affect Lois.
Despite Superman's strength, it wasn't his strength that allowed him to share this experience with Lois, as her body wouldn't be able withstand being pulled along, let alone by her fingertips.
He is so powerful that he can make Thanos look like a toddler throwing a tantrum
Its curious that people consider Thanos some high level of power in comics. He's powerful but he's utterly eclipsed by many other characters even just in Marvel.
@@christophertaylor9100 depends if he has the infinity gauntlet or not, with it he's easily with in the top 5 strongest in marvel, without it, egh, not in top 20 but probably top 40 🤷♂️
@@NeonAnimeDreams Anyone can be powerful if they have the infinity gauntlet complete with the stones.
Assuming you want to follow this crazy mythos as related to something like ‘spirit science’, Superman came from a planet, which I understand to have several more times the gravity of Earth, which does not account for his abilities, but gets the ball rolling. His people are a science based culture, which affects his eventual limits and, also, his near limitlessness That means something beyond science, such as quantum reality(magic) and science’s short comings(eventually the formation of kryptonite) can harm him. Superman’s home sun is a red dwarf. Though small and efficient, it is not capable of giving the man of steel or his people significant sustenance. A somewhat larger yellow sun will tremendously bolster his abilities. A side note: General Zod should have been able to defeat Superman because he has almost the same abilities and probably better strategic and tactical capabilities. So Zod’s an idiot.
@@bryanbryan2968 You are mostly correct but the reason Superman will always beat Zod is simple, he spent his entire life under a yellow sun and his cells including the cells of the organisms in the codex contained in his body have been supercharged by the yellow sun for at least 20 years nonstop. Zod can only dream of that much power
I don’t know why I keep thinking this but I always assumed that cavill Superman got a power boost when he was resurrected
That is true and canon, the director himself said so
ya they turned him into a super sayien.
Black suit Superman is stronger than Steppenwolf and Doomsday combined
He didn't get a power boost. He lost his memory and thus led him to using less restraint on his true powers.
Remember. Superman is always restraining his true powers. But once he forgets his morality, it's all over.
I once heard Jordan Peterson say:
"A man needs to become a monster. Then learns how to control that monster. That's how you become a true man."
This is Superman.
@@Cipher73 after I put this comment up, I actually googled it and it turns out that Zack Snyder did indeed say that superman was stronger after his resurrection. you aren't completely wrong because does indeed restrain himself.
Been waiting for the updated 2022 version of this
Really wish you'd used ZSJL. Even if you made like a seperate section for it. I know it isn't "technically" canon, but I'm pretty sure everyone considers it so. There was even a controversy about the Josstice League version of Steppenwolf showing up in Black Adam which was changed due to fan outcry.

@@KeyIssues Fair enough
@@KeyIssues Snyder Cut wasn't canon in Hamada's reign, but now he is gone, after Discovery merger they can make it canon.
@@TheBlond49 the Snyder cut shouldn't be canon for a variety of reasons, especially with how it doesn't fit with the course correction the DCEU made with its latest movies. Hopefully the DCEU will end the Snyderverse. It's a travesty to DC and its heroes, especially Superman.
He literally has the cells of all of his Kryptonians
A key thing to remember is superman is written to not always merely overpower all situations with strength. It's to also demonstrate alternative solutions. He is and will always be a symbol of hope. And hope doesn't die. Ala how's he written. And different writers do different things. For consistency compare same writer to himself for better results too.
24:37 Superman is not weak to Magic at all. He's just isn't invulnerable to it. The Magic only counts as a Vulnerability not a weakness. He has shown to have a Indomitable Will to resist Magic.
you said what I said
Yes, his only weakness is Kryptonite.. I get tired of explaining this.
Exactly! He's not any more susceptible to it than anyone else it's just that literally everything and everyone can be affected by magic including Kryptonians.
but if youre vulnerable to it it is a weakness,thats what weakness means.......
@@Marcustheseer then every character who has ever existed in all of fiction has that same vulnerability and weakness.
We also forget that even in his fight with Batman he's always holding back he barely ever really wants to use his full strength cause he's almost always trying to be a good guy

Being an Alien wouldn’t make you an “it”
@@Artryom what would it make it then?????? No matter what Supes isn't a human or a man soooo......
@@vernonharley He’s a man, he’s not a human man. Pretty sure they still use earth lingo such as man as they use “Kryptonian” to technically substitute “human” for our species. If they can have babies with us as well, that means they’re not something ENTIRELY different either as you’ll never see humans have children with animals, with “its” and y’know… meaning their DNA makeup must be almost identical besides the mutations they undergo from yellow sun radiation to increase they’re existence entirely. They’re not “humans” but “man” can also be used for “male” which obviously he still is so I think you’re reading too much into that and it was a mistake on his part like how a person might call someone “it” or the wrong gender.
“Alien” just mean planetary foreigner but not exactly species foreigner as well as I could be born on mars and be called alien, I, a human.
“Man” can also be used to describe a male so in our lingo, he’d be a “man” even if he was a different species as well.
@@vernonharley You’re looking at it at an overly simplistic level, if their DNA is close enough to have children with us, that should qualify as being able to be called “man” and “human” but they’re not “Earthling” unless they were born on earth. DNA is what counts, they’re Kryptonian because they were born on a planet called “Krypton” and they’re “aliens” not by species but because they’re not from our planet. Funny how Canadians and foreigners from our own planet is called alien as well tho lol

@@niceandflyybut superman is the most powerful dceu superhero it was stated the writers
I feel like when it was stated he was the strongest being in the universe, it was referring to strongest alive, because Zeus was able to split the mother boxes in a single blast while Superman struggled for several seconds to split an already almost separated set
it wouldn't matter since its superman lifting strenght vs zeus AP which are too different things so superman still scales above or around zeus since he can tank that same output
@@closegripbenchpress489 if it’s exertion overtime it more of AP, Zeus still completely eclipsed him in that scenario, and we don’t know what his speed/durability was like
@@sergperez5484 it has nothing to do with AP since superman could punch more than he can lift and also if you go to the gym you would know that the way superman was trying to separate them is a weak position to start with so even separating the boxes would be downplay to what he can do.
Zeus didn't eclipse anything since i can easily argue the amount of time zeus took to charge his attack is the same as the time it took superman to separate them.
I'd also argue that zeus wasn't a young man, he's an immortal god who used and mastered his powers for a very long time. By the time ZSJL, Superman had only really been superman for maybe 5 years. Even being in his 30s with his powers doesn't compare to the hundreds to thousands of years that zeus had
Yea I’d say Zeus is > Supes in AP but speed is the issue there
He's more powerful now cause he was resurrected by a motherbox in ZSJL.
He’s still gonna job to Dwayne tho, which sucks but that’s just how it is.
Non canon film do you guys just lie to yourselves that a theatrical canon film exists
@@Marshkoon only this channel enjoy josstice league
I’ve always been a Superman fan!#1 I’m wondering now how strong is Zeus if he can one hit the mother boxes and separate them. That might actually be a really good match up in the DCEU.
No need for that. Black Adam also have the power of Zeus.

@@christianoroghona1403 That's Shazam, not Black Adam genius.
@@controlman7490 thats ironic because Black Adam is perceived to be stronger than Shazam. Maybe Zeus is the wrong god to draw power from.
@@_nightshade_gaming4792 did the movie explicitly state that or is he just a former champion?
There was a storyline that says his son altered something to enable him draw power from a different set of gods.
As powerful as he has to be for the plot.
If he was ever consistently as powerful as he should be, he would have been untouchable by anyone that isn't a god. So he is either not as powerful as he should be or is severely incompetent despite his absurd power combination.
Also, majority of superman's power make more sense if he is straight up psychokinetic due to the empowerment to his mind.
The Plutonian is an example of a well explained version of superman because all of his powers come from his innate capability to sense and manipulate all the particles around him on a massive scale as if he is a master of psychokinesis.
Yeah I chuckled when he mentioned Superman’s speed feats. That alone, coupled with his strength, makes him win any fight automatically without question. How do you hold up against that if you’re his enemy? You simply cant.

Can’t wait to see how the meta changed
Also if you want, feel free to use my Doc about the Snyder Cut’s relation to canon; might help if people ever question why the TC of JL is canon
Wtf is the TC?
Edit: Nevermind, I just realized it meant "theatrical cut."
And bro was only Superman for like 2 or 3 years in his universe with only 3 appearances, just imagine how more powerful he can be
He was stated to be stronger then a planet pre JL. That’s the one part I feel is inconsistent. I think it’s possible BVS Supes has better AP and versatility then Diana she was just more skilled and possibly faster in combat. I think BVS Supes is underrated
Remember
1. Supe is always holding back, maybe not against doomsday but it's still a probability
2. Superman was severely weakened by kryptonite, and was hit by a nuke like immediately after getting kryptonite up his azz
3. The nuke didn't output any damage on superman physically or force impact wise, the only reason he got knocked out by the nuke NOT KILLED is because of the radiation poisoning which is evident to why his body and hair was practically left untouched
4. Superman was doing a lot more physical damage to doomsday than wonder woman, all wonder woman did that was close to superman was cut Doomsday's hand off and that was because of her sword, not her strength.
5. Superman has shown much more combat speed than wonder woman
6. I believe that Bruce meant that pre JL superman is more DURABLE than a planet which he definitely is, as far as strength, he could probably punch a continent and a giant moon to hell
7. I don't think many people know how much kryptonite superman withstood in BvS
@@MMAisTHEbestSPORT08 also Superman ignores child abuse although he can hear it happening. That's kind of a problem with too powerful "heroes" like that. Why doesn't he just fly around with his super speed and safe every victim of abuse? Wouldn't take him 5 minutes. Instead he flies through buildings with people inside.
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 because of the Joker?
Well as Snyder said Doomsday was gonna destroy the earth with a single blast eventually and Superman was more powerful then him in JL so who knows.
@@ketchup1993 he cant be everywhere at the same time + he has a life. theres been many times where he hasnt ignored it and times where hes dealing with stuff like being gassed with kryptonite or getting ragdolled through building
Here's the thing for the tectonic plate feat it was literally a off screen feat so we don't even know if its true or not and even Zack Snyder confirmed that he could never do that so supermans strength is literally below continental level strength and for the nuke feat doomsday was literally right in front of him in that feat and tanked most of the energy and observed the energy
I don't think superman was resisting ww laso. He was just risen from the dead. He has no memories and ww says "Kal-El the last son of krypton, remember who you are, tell me who you ahhh"
In that moment ww asked him to remember a life he never had further confusing him. He didn't grow up and have a life as kal el the Kryptonian. He grew up as Clark And had the life of a farmer.
According to Snyder, superman woke up but his mind is blank. He didn't know why those league came to him. So when cyborg suddenly shoots him, he saw them as threat. Diana try to use lasso because her lasso can shows truth to person that hold it. That's why after he grab lasso, his memories come back to him but it's too sudden so he pull Diana toward him
@@boboboy8189 but it was Lois who brought his memories back by calling out Clark. The lasso just seemed to further confuse him. The lasso doesn't show you the truth. It compels you to speak the truth. That's why she said tell me who you ahhh. If she got to complete her sentence and he said his name, I'm sure the memories would have inadvertently came back on its own
Some sources state that Zack Snyder's Justice League is considered Canon
Since the old regime left DC, yes. But many people still hate it.
i think they might go with the magic weakness thing for black adam to have more of a fair fight but superman is def #1 rn theyre obvi not gonna kill eachother and they'll reach an understanding sometime
Black bolt and black Adam both can beat superman, black Adam an easier win because his magical attacks inflict faster damage against superman
thats because they ruined Superman, he actually used to be the strongest and only like 3 beings could kill him, but they made him superweak now in the comics and in the movies, it sucks because now everyone can beat him pretty much.
Believe it or not, Black Adam is actually way stronger than superman because of how weak they made him. In fact, in the comics, everytime that Shazam and Superman have fought, Shazam has won.
My version of Superman was the 50’s early 60’s version where about the only thing that would bother him was Kryptonite and magic. I do remember reading later that there was a feeling he was too perfect. I also watched the old TV show with George Reeves, have seen all the movies, the Supergirl movie with Helen Slater, TV shows Lois & Clark, Smallville and more recently Supergirl, and now Superman and Lois on the CW.
I was born in 1947 and comics helped me learn to read. I collected comics, Action, Superman, Superboy, Batman, etc. I know I had stopped by the time I went to college in 1965 but I’m not sure exactly when. I had quite a collection including the first Supergirl, Justice League, Bizarro, even had some Disney stuff like the 1st Uncle Scrooge. Unfortunately my mom threw them all out when I went to college.
Always found it interesting how writers would adjust the “magnitude” of Clark’s powers to fit the plot. Superman could handle a nuke. Yet in one episode in Lois and Clark this stupid looking weapon hurt him by working at the “atomic level”. You don’t think a nuclear bomb works at the atomic level. I had the same feeling when seeing some girl who can harness electricity hurt Supergirl with it and had the same feeling about that ax type thing in the pilot episode.
I also felt that Superman had to learn an important lesson. When fighting other supers “Don’t Hold Back”. In the second Christopher Reeve move when he fights Zod he needed to learn that. I thought the fight with the bully in the luncheonette was totally screwed up. After he hits Clark in the back and sends him through that glass wall instead of just going back and standing there Clark should have charged him and tackled him. They should have had a knock down drag out fight with Clark barely winning. He had to learn to not hold back. Don’t let the other guy get the first hit. Take the bastard out. It’s an important lesson he had to learn when fighting other supers.
In a review of the movie Man of Steel in Entertainment Weekly the idiot actually complained about Superman killing Zod, breaking his neck. I jumped all over that review. Pointing out that in that second Reeve movie Superman kills Zod at the end and Zod didn’t even have powers then. In a Smallville episode in a cage fight Clark kills another super Krytonian by hitting him with every thing he had. I really liked that episode. The reviewer had no idea what he was talking about. BTW, the reviewer obviously revised the review later taking that garbage out.
BTW, who's more powerful Capt Marvel or Superman/Supergirl? Captain Marvel doesn't need a yellow sun. She can travel the whole cosmos unencumbered. BUT, after seeing the Capt Marvel movie and Avengers Endgame it seems to me Supeman/Supergirl are stronger and can take a hit better. At least that’s true for the 50’s early 60’s comics version.
BTW, I once proposed a much more scientific explanation for why a yellow sun gives Krytonians super powers. The yellow sun acts as a catalyst allowing them to metabolize nutrients according to E=MC^2. We chemically metabolize nutrients for energy; they are nuclear powered able to turn the total mass of nutrients into total energy. They are nuclear powered and able to control that. It even would explain Kryptonite. Kryptonite totally shuts that down. It would also explain something else. They don’t really need to breath. Oxygen is needed for us to oxidize our nutrients. They are nuclear powered, no need for O2. No problem flying in space.
If there are any writers of the series reading this? I give you permission to use that concept. ;-)
BTW, continuing the affects of the yellow sun on him as making him nuclear powered I proposed much different plots for the 3rd and 4th Christopher Reeve movies. Think Star Wars death star or later Independence Day. Extraterrestrial Invading force, Superman can block their weapons but could not bust their force fields. He gets them to come close to the sun. Supercharged he busts their force field and destroys them.
Forth movie; he likes the high. Like someone taking steroids, like someone on drugs. He keeps flying to the sun to get his high like a drug addict.
In the 50’s and early 60’s Batman & Superman were friends and co-founders of the Justice League. I thought the whole concept of BvS was stupid. That being said Supergirl should be part of the JL. If she was, the resurrection of Superman would not have been needed in the JL movie. They would have had all they needed to take on Steppenwolf. With both available a great scene would have been Superman & Supergirl playing a tennis type game with Steppenwolf. One hits him sending him flying and the other hitting him sending him back. Back and forth over and over again with the other JL members looking on in amusement and enthusiasm.
Superman would easily beat Captain Marvel. Sucks marvel pumped her up compared to Thor, Hulk, Thanos, etc. in an effort to be woke
@@thrasher2094 I liked Capt Marvel and don't do "woke" with me. I said that superman could take a hit better but needs a yellow sun for his powers.
Supergirl is not part of the league. Maybe you confuse with powergirl from earth 2?
@@boboboy8189 she should be. As I said if she was they wouldn't have needed superman with both it would have been fun.
Letting his father die was really stupid. He’s so fast he would’ve been able to get to him and back in the blink of an eye. He’s so fast that he could see Flash’s movements, and a flash is the fastest man alive who can break the space time barrier.
You forgot 1 of Supermans greatest feats ever. The Christopher Reeves Superman , when Lois Lane had died, Superman flew around the world counter clockwise with such speed and strength that he caused the world to spin backwards and actually rewind time. So the same way that Flash can travel forwards and backwards through time using the speed force, Superman did that while taking the whole planet earth with him through the speed force. That might be his greatest display of both speed and strength ever. And that scene is from the very first Superman movie with Christopher Reeves.
Superman went back into time...he flying FTL, and thusu back in time, makes the ILUSION the Earth is going backwards...that ahs been explained sine the movie was made back in the 70s...
I was certain MAGIC was something he is vulnerable to. He can't see through lead. Kryptonite can be a killer. Angry green man gives him a Hulk of a fight. Then again, it is up to the writers to decide what abilities he has got and vulnerabilities he has. He has to go farther in his little black book and get past "L" (Lana Lang, Lois Lane)
I think there are ellipses between the different places where Superman is shown flying, but all of them may occure during the same day.
When he flies above water, the cone form indicates he got over sound barrier. The cone is indeed a real thing in a humid atmosphere.
Superman has always been powerful. His humanity is what makes him not use of his full power. When he was resurrected, he momentarily was not in touch with his humanity.
The flaw with super hearing is that it's constrained by the speed of sound, so that even if he could hear Lois all the way from Smallville 1500 miles away, it takes sound nearly 2 hrs to travel that distance. By the time he hears her, she should have been long dead from the fall.
All that abilities and powers that Superman has yet you missed his greatest trope, *His kind HEART*
I count ZSJL as canon for the sole fact that flash is way cooler than josstice league
Black Adam: finally, a worthy opponent. Our battle will be glorious!!!
And proceeds to get folded because writer. Not even Black Adam with his godly powers can match up to the bullshit powers of superman... I mean the guy can hear sounds from hundreds of kilometers away without any kind of travel lag even if he is in space, which just gives a middle finger to physics. Yet, somehow his powers are totally not magic.
Right at the end you mention about reversing time. Well Superman turned back time in the 1978 movie! He flew around Earth so fast he reversed time before the Dam broke to save a loved one 😁
Everybody forgets that he (Cal-El) has all the genetic blueprints from the merging of the Codex with his DNA. That aspect has not been explored properly in the films.
That's because it's not from comic. Goyer make them up just like he make "someone underneath mask is not important" bullshit because Bruce Wayne always want to be batman

@@kylereese5841 Still nowhere near the power to give lobotomies of the comic.

@@ChristisLORD538 they ain't never confirmed we don't know if black adam stronger than superman have you ever seen them fight in the dceu or you saying because you think that
His flight "mechanism" as well as some of his other abilities are tied into his manipulation of gravimetric force through will using the innate bioenergy field generated by his empowered cells (which are capable of soaking up all manner of energies just as the chaotic abomination "Doomsday" did, though he metabolizes them in a far more controlled fashion).
the thing about superman is that he would have to destroy whoever he's fighting on the first encounter, because on the second encounter that meta thing just might happen to have some kryptonite and make superman its raggedy ann biatch.

If he was moving tectonic plates pre death.. he was leagues beyond WW and the others before death. The resurrection may have awoken him a bit more to what he could really do. But he definitely had that power beforehand.

I can handwave pretty much all his insane power except situations like him hearing Lois fall from 1,400 miles away. No matter how good his hearing is... he can't hear a sound before the soundwave has been able to reach him. It would take roughly two hours for the sound of her falling to reach him (ignoring the fact the soundwave would disassociate in the atmosphere much sooner than that). That's literally impossible no matter how powerful he is, and honestly kind of a major oversight.
Not necessarily. Sound waves would hit objects causing them to heat up ever so slightly. As things heat up and cool down, they emit infrared radiation. Superman's ears actually are tuned to also transform the subtle changes in infrared radiation into sound -- that's how he can hear things far away at the same time they actually happen (or at the speed of light).
(This is just a wild crazy "in universe" explanation for how he could possibly hear things happening far away as they happen. I did a back of the napkin calculation on how much an object would heat up from a 50 db sound wave and it is around 10 to the negative 9 watts which is ridiculously small. However, the cool thing about this explanation is that it would also explain how Superman could hear things on Earth from in space.
@@j_m_b_1914 That's certainly an interesting work-around. Although I'd think all useful information to identify the soundwave would be lost when converted to radiative energy, and it would be impossible to pick out of the myriad of other minute radiative energy in the cosmos. But sure, I guess I could accept he has some way of doing that. It's something, at least.
Excellent analysis! I’m hoping you’ll do one on Superboy as his strength and abilities have been all over the map. I’m referring to the Superboy who’s the clone of Superman and Lex.
This was a lousy analysis. The Christopher Reeve "Superman" was much closer to the original comic book character. In the "Man of Steel" re-boot film, Clark Kent did not push the school bus out of the water, because the laws of physics cannot support such a feat - the weight of the water, plus the pressure of the water, and the weight of the bus would have either imploded the bus, popped all of the windows and seams, or caused other damage making it impossible to hold the bus together!!! Superman's "powers" are NOT physically based, but primarily telekinetic, which was literally established over 30 decades ago in the comic books!!! Then, due to sagging sales of DC's flagship comic book character, in 1986 DC agreed to allow artist/writer John Byrne to relaunch the Superman franchise with a revamped origin and by also making the character much weaker. They intentionally made Superman weaker because DC's writers were not smart enough to create storylines and characters equal to or greater than Superman's powers and intellect, and because the Superman "character" did not convey "the diversity of social awareness" openly represented by most of Marvel's comic book characters, especially the X-Men, Spider-Man, Iron Man, etc. The DC cinematic universe version of Superman does NOT represent the true, unbridled powers and intellect of the original comic book character. That's a shame.

I feel that Superman was very low balled in his power rating in this clip.
In the comics they say Superman almost destroyed the solar system by sneezing…u gotta low ball Superman
Superman has his own gravity field. Like in the comics, it increases his strength and allows him to gravitate himself in any direction. "Fly".
And he controls that field of things he touches which is why when he catches a plane it doesn't immediately fold in half.
It's called tactile telekinesis and it explains a lot but it is barely mentioned as one of his abilities in the comics. The only one with true tactile telekinesis is superboy.
@@russm4391 Also he uses the word gravitate incorrectly. Gravity or to gravitate is a force that pulls towards an object. It's impossible to gravitate in any direction. The telekinesis explanation makes so much more sense.
Not gravity field. In comic, they explained it as electromagnetism. That's why superman can fly anywhere he could even without gravity
As you point out supes caught Doomsday's punch which WW could only block with her shield and got knocked back quite far so wouldn't that mean he was originally stronger than her? One thing I thought was cool that ppl seem to ignore is supes speed is at least as fast as the flash. Because of his toughness he could do a ton more damage if he added the Flash's speed to the mix. I'll keep watching to see if it is addressed, I've reached the bit about the mother box and resurrection.
Nah flash was dodging him really good, even being inexperienced
Yes superman is always stronger than wonder woman. What makes Snyder great is he knew how to distinguish each hero with there power level.
Compare that to MCU, avengers power level is going haywire. Black widow keep up with hulk, black widow can fight thanks right hand woman, Wanda only how to use her power in Wanda vision but not before, captain America can fight with thanks right hand man....

The part where Superman can hear everything is a part that bugs me. Sure he can hear things but sound is still sound. If Louis falls and screams hear soundwave would not reach him before she hits the ground.
Superman is technically a one-man army because it took an army of like 10,000 people who are all super strong and even had some gods in it in order to damage Steppenwolf Superman single-handedly annihilate Steppenwolf without breaking a sweat.
Good argument
Fantastic, one of the best step-by-step explanations of superman's power.
And people think MCU Thor can beat him
Because he can. LOL. He literally has Star level feats that are calculated.
@@cha0sking220 No he can't. Thor in the MCU is confirmed to be around large island to small country level. The star feat is confirmed to be small country level. Superman on the other hand is moon level at least, possibly planetary
@@joseluis5055 Large island level? Dude fought Gorr who was stated to have the ability to kill the Celestials on Omnipotent City. He withstood attacks from Thanos that shattered Dr Strange’s shields that stood up to Dormammu, and he resisted the pull of the Bifrost which has been calculated at large Star level.
@@cha0sking220 yup
@@cha0sking220 Thor is nowhere near star level 🤣
Superman: I am strongest being in the universe...
Saitama: blah, blah, enough talking.. *serious punch*
*Thanx for sharing this info on supes now we as superman fans can defend superman as a character more efficiently*
Can you do a scaling on the Justice Society(Hawkman, Dr Fate, Cyclone and Atom Smasher)
Yeah hawk man was really strong to even take his from black adam and even threw some punches at him
Dr Fate can slap superman as well. It's argued he's more powerful than Dr strange... and Dr strange slaps superman. Superman is weak to very few things and magic is one of them.
@@empiremedia1675 Dr Strange and Wanda can potentially beat Superman if it isn’t for the stupid writers. But vice versa can be said for Supes because of his insane speed.
@@thighguy4534 superman can beat MCU Wanda and Dr strange because of super speed. None of avengers has superspeed even captain marvel also has lame speed in endgame, she didn't use that when fought thanos.
To argue against him getting more powerful after death is possible he could of decided not to hold back as much is all it’s pretty much in his character to hold back as I doubt he got more powerful from being revived I believe he just decided not to hold back as much because the entire planet was in trouble also flash wasn’t struggling to keep up he was surprised that someone else could move as fast as him and panicked
Superman isn’t a super hero he is a representative form of hope and good overcoming evil 🎃😊
In the Justice League movie, Superman’s punches on Steppenwolf literally generates shockwaves like an earthquake. THAT’S how powerful his punches are.
People say he is “boring”, but I think this is what makes him actually interesting and nuanced. The fact that despite all this power Superman still has the mental and emotional control to do good in a world that is ridden with evil.
When I was a kid, I used to wonder if Superman was the strongest. Then I saw one cartoon that convinced me. It's a 1967 Justice League cartoon. Back then during those Justice League cartoons, the Justice League only consisted of Superman, Green Lantern, Hawkman, The Flash and the Adam (who would ride on The Flash's Shoulder). Anyway, that 1967 Justice League cartoon episode was called "Target Earth". And there was one point where these alien beings shot a machine on the earth that put out an electromagnetic ray which was pulling the earth into the sun. Superman pushed the entire earth back into it's own orbit. And as if that wasn't bad enough, he was doing it against resistance because there was an electromagnetic ray pulling the earth towards the sun as he was pushing it back. Even when one of the alien beings in their spaceship (who shot that machine down to earth that was pulling it into the sun) said "INCREDIBLE!" when he witnessed what he saw Superman doing. So, that did it for me when I saw that.
Superman's freeze berth works by deleting all energy from the area.
No, it works because his lungs are so strong he can super compress the air in them making it very cold.
Strong enough to beat Goku
Chill🤣🤣🤣
Yes batman can also beat goku.
And thanos
The DCEU's can't, but in the comics...
