General DC Comics Discussion Thread

Kon-el superboy during the 90s endured a nuke
in issue 60 of his run which was before his kryptonian abilities kicked in
what does that do for his durability on here ?
 
Was reading a Dr. Doom thread where people commented that Marvel was behind DC tierwise cuz the latter has Tier 0 characters, than I had the idea to try and search if we could actually try to get a fight to work.


Then, I ask you what yall think about Dream Of The Endless vs Lady Death. Would they be able to affect one another? Would it be a stomp? If so, why?
Incon would be pretty based ngl
 
with the release of Goku vs Superman 3, one of the main researcher has released his research for the ep (which he apparently gone through every single piece of Superman media for)

Mainline Stuff

Other Incarnations
This will probably help cover superman's powers
I'm really shocked that someone likes Superman so badly to make such an effort.

Y'know, he's not a utterly bad character or something like that, but i don't consider him great to this point ngl

Static Shock, Nightwing, Hal's Green Lantern and John's green lantern sound like I'd make such effort for

Bro is a mad man, researching EVERYTHING Superman for death battle

He also did the same for Goku
 
@Lloydblitzed

Hey, great work on this physiology page so far, what are you plans with it? (e.g. are you taking from every era of DC, N52-Infinite Frontier etc. Any cool abilities you plan to put on it that aren't the typical "heat vision, cold breath, enhances senses" etc?)

Mainly gonna add diseases resistances and other abilities obtained throught Kryptonian tech besides the typical stuff. Im planning on doing New 52, Rebirth and Infinite Frontier era asw. Spinoir's Superman respect thread is a gold mine of scans
 
have you got a link?

Thanks, I didn't realize that's what you were referring to.

What do we currently accept as canon to infinite frontier Superman, I understand he's a Superman with the continuity of pre crisis, post crisis and Rebirth Supermen but depowered or something? It's kind of confusing honestly

Edit: And another question, is Rebirth Superman Post-Crisis Superman with N52 Superman's memories or something? Why is this so effing confusing?

Pre-Crisis, Post-Crisis, New 52 and Rebirth. As well as everything going forward.

Rebirth Superman is technically Post-Crisis Superman, but merged with New 52 Superman.
 
Ok, thanks for the reply, I stopped reading DC near the end of post-crisis so I'm very out of date.

Going through Rebirth Supers profile (it's almost completely unreadable), I reformatted some things and have some questions about where some abilities/resistances come from?

Obviously "flight" is obvious, but there are no scans for martial arts, pressure points and a number of his resistances. do we know where these abilities and resistances come from?

Martial Arts yappery comes from Superman's Tetha State
 
He was also trained by some yapper on yapperworld or something a rather which could bolster the martial arts and combat IQ sections

Basically both of those but to be more clear, he'd get these from Post Crisis:

(Superman is a master combatant. Excelled in wrestling[9] and trained with Granny Goodness[10]), and (Superman is a master combatant. In his youth, he was trained by his father[46] and as an adult, he trained with some of the universe's greatest fighters[47] such as, including Wonder Woman,[48][49] Wally West,[50] Dick Grayson,[51] Batman,[46][51] Muhammad Ali,[52][53] and Mongul.[54][55] Occasionally trains when under a Red Sun to make sure he can hold his own when weakened.[56] Has over 1000 years of raw experience thanks to his years in Valhalla.[43] With his teachings, Superman has matched and defeated highly skilled fighters such as Commander Gor, a high-ranking member of Zod's military,[47] Kobra, a master of all martial arts,[57] Mongul,[58] Mongal[59] Conduit, a skilled wrestler,[60] Asmodeus,[61] Parasite,[53] Sakki,[62] and Lex Luthor.[63] Capable of fending off groups of enemies while depowered[64][56]), Pressure Points (Has shown to be skilled at precision-hitting techniques, hurting foes with finger pokes to specific areas or knocking them out with strikes to the neck[64][47][65]),

this from n52: (Stated to have “formidable brawling skills” by Captain Comet[4]), and (unlisted on vsb but important) New 52 Superman also learned boxing (Action comics vol 2 #16) from his Pa (SUPERMAN/WONDER WOMAN #13) and did some Amazonian training with his then-girlfriend Wonder Woman. (Superman/Wonder Woman #1)

and Rebirth Superman uniquely has received training in New God martial arts from Wioska (Man of Tomorrow #7)

Ah well that saves me some "downloading HD comics and converting them to PNG" time
 
I just found out about that after making the calc. Welp it would upscale him even more
what's even more crazy is if you take into account how long it's been since that statement was made in universe... even just assuming it was made 24 hours ago, the DC universe grows hundreds of trillions of lightyears.

Even assuming the universe is 1 second old at the time that statement was made and 0 seconds have passed since then. And Superman took 2 months to perform the feat, Superman must have been accelerating at such an insane rate to reach the end of the Universe.

Probably one of the fastest finite speed feats in fiction

Bro is gonna surpass Supergirl's Qintillion codes feat

If we knew how old the universe was at the time of the feat, with the expansion rate we could calculate how big the universe is, wouldn't surprise me if the universe is septillions of light years across
 
I re-read the scan (Assuming u were refering to that). It says that Maxima's galaxy was 100 Trillions light years away from Earth, but not that it was expanding that fast (unless Im missing sum)

Action comics Vol 1 issue 782: "Superman says the universe expands at 60 trillion lightyears per half second"​


I can't get the scan because my internet security software doesn't allow me to go on the readcomics website but the statement was made in the PC era

Oooh. Imma go look into it. Thanks
 
ahh well, that statement doesn't really imply it's a constant rate of expansion as I thought it did, it more so implies the umiverse will expand to that size.

Still, it ups the calc by about 1600 times if my maff is maffing
 
Not sure if its part of the main contunuity, but the Universe is said to be 20 Billion years old

That's Vertigo, and the scan doesn't say Universe, but Creation, which has a drastically different meaning in Vertigo (albeit the term is sometimes used interchangeably with Universe, it refers to whole multiverses and higher planes).

I also found this Pre Crisis scan. Can we exploit it?
