So, here's the story:
There's this forum dedicated to this comic book series and the head writer of it (and original author) sometimes answers questions from users.
There was once this thread where people could make their own drafts of stories they would like to see, and other users could leave comments, and sometimes the author himself used to give opinions (one of them actually became a true story, after being processed by an official writer).
In this series there are vampires called "Masters of the Night" or just "Masters" and only the blood of a damphire can kill them.
During the series they have been harmed by other things or characters, but never seriously injured, since they can only die by the effect of damphire blood or by the hands of another Master (they can harm each other).
Now, among the many drafts written by the people, one was about one of these Masters (invented by him) who was caught by the explosion of an atomic bomb, and nearly died.
That started a debate between users, regarding whether something as strong as a nuke could actually kill a Master or not, until the author arrived and gave his opinion, which you can see here, with my translation hidden by the spoiler button.
He talks about Superman to make a comparison between kyptonite and damphir blood, as they are two weaknesses to characters that otherwise are invulnerable/incredibily durable.
Now my question is if this statement could be used in a profile for the durability of these characters, maybe with a "possibly".
Keep in mind that no Master has ever been hit by something nearly comparable to a nuke but at the same time nothing has ever seriously damaged them (aside for the two aforementioned exceptions)

Unfortunately it doesn't work (the story proposed). Can Superman withstand the atomic bomb? Yes? Then the Masters can too, since the ONLY threat to them is damphire blood.
