Kryptonian Physiology + Superman NEP Erasure

Superman threathened to be able to destroy the entire Phantom Zone. This is supported by the fact his fight against Rogol Zaar was shaking the whole Zone throught Earthquakes. The Phantom Zone is stated to be beyond space/time (so it should obviously lack Space Time) and a timeless dimension of near nothingness. This should grant him: Nonexistence Erasure (Nature Type 1; Aspect Types 2 & 5 [Other: Concepts & History].
Anyone capable of destroying the Zone should also be granted the same ability
This scan states that when they enter the zone, they become immaterial. His physiology and very existence is altered here, so I think it shouldn't mean Superman can interact with the PZ with his usual body
 
This is NPI

These are done via speed and skill, its more of a technique than something to do with their physiology, so I don't think every Kryptonian can do this. Supergirl couldn't even do this before the Flash taught her
 
You claimed the zone lack concept, where it is again?
Concept refers to Space
This scan states that when they enter the zone, they become immaterial. His physiology and very existence is altered here, so I think it shouldn't mean Superman can interact with the PZ with his usual body
In the Action Comics, he could interact with people in the Zone even when using tech that keeps his normal power/physiology
This is NPI
Superman couldn't physically touch him nor hit him with Heat Vision

They have the ability to if they learn how to do it. Just like everyone can do Superflare but hasn't necesserally learned how to control the output

So? That's still NPI with frost breath.

You shouldn't get an ability if you haven't learnt how to do it yet. Superflare should be removed for the same reason

It doesn't say physiology, just powers

It is implied here, here and here that Kryptonians gain the same abilities as Superman under a yellow Sun
Should we also remove most abilities because we haven't seen other Kryptonians explicitly use it?

Superflare is not something you learn. A random guy who just got Kryptonian powers was able to do it. Jon Kent with 0 knowledge on the ability was able to do it out of rage. No

It doesn't say physiology, just powers
His powers are litterally based on his physio? He would be completly depowered and way weaker if it wasn't from them. Also, I don't see how his different state would change anything here. Being immaterial =/= Automatically being able to interact with Nonexistence

Only the techniques that they haven't learn should be removed

Again, this doesn't mean they have his techniques. Are you gonna tell me they should all have Torquasm Vo now?

That doesn't refute what I said about Superflare. People have shown to use it without prior knowledge on it or training, including Superman

Really not comparable. His Martial Art =/= His Yellow Sun based abilities. Kryptonians are the only guys who can release the entire Solar Energy contained in their body, so "Ahem its just skills!" is just dead logic

I almost entirely agree, except:

Intangibility Negation should just be Non-Physical Interaction.
It should just be noted it's only for the frost breath.

And I don't see it on the sandbox, but I also disagree with Invulnerability.
 
  • Kryptonian physiolgy page
    • Overall, it seems fine.
    • Note: This is no longer an issue for Superman[57]
      • Eh, I would posit that he can now better control how much energy he uses for an omnidirectional burst, so he still has leftover energy to fight. It's not like he can expend all his energy in a burst twice in a row or something.
  • Superman threathened to be able to destroy the entire Phantom Zone. This is supported by the fact his fight against Rogol Zaar was shaking the whole Zone throught Earthquakes. The Phantom Zone is stated to be beyond space/time (so it should obviously lack Space Time) and a timeless dimension of near nothingness. This should grant him: Nonexistence Erasure (Nature Type 1; Aspect Types 2 & 5 [Other: Concepts & History].
    Anyone capable of destroying the Zone should also be granted the same ability
    • I lean against this since it lacks context on PZ reality being affected as a whole rather than it just shaking from their attacks.
  • higher via Super Flare
    • Fine

Can't we just say the NEP feat is a NPI feat instead of erasure?
