Except these in the very same issue. Pretty much as explicit as it can get with how they reference crisis-level events.
(Btw, I still think that my earlier comparison should remove concerns like these)

Probably not. If it does, then we should keep it for another CRT and see what happens with this one first.

So should we apply this then?

Yeah, I'd say so. It's really not that big of a change and should've been applied from the start ever since we accepted Low 1-C God Sphere.

Reading this scan, should we still use it if Doctor Fate is specifically exploiting the weakness to magic?
Knocked out an evil version of Pre-Crisis Superman.
Also, the link below is broken. Will fix.
Capable of replicating Superman's powers with his magic.

@Antvasima How does the page look now?

Isn't this power mimicry?

I'm against it 100%. We don't scale characters that way from what I remember especially when they defeat superman via kryptonite,red sun or magic.

Superman may've been said to be "vulnerable" to magic, but he's not just not specifically vulnerable to it, but still resists it more than average Joe, often taking potent magical attacks. If he was vulnerable or had no resistance to it, he would die

Yeah superman also resist's magical attacks countless of times infact but we know his still vulnerable to it so anyone defeating him via magic shouldn't be used to scale them above him. Maybe some exception may be given but I don't think it's right to scale magical characters defeating him as a credible thing cause I see no difference with this abd kryptonite or red sun.

I am also against it for the same reason.

It mostly seems fine to me, with the exception of that you included defeating a Superman copy with magic.
Doctor Fate (Classic)
Kent Nelson is the son of an archaeologist who explored the Valley of Ur in Mesopotamia. In 1920, he and his father stumbled across an underground pyramid, which they found contained Nabu, an ancient immortal from the planet Cilia who had laid dormant for thousands of years. However, their...

That statement was already there. I just reworded it, but we can remove it since we all seem to agree on it.

The scan says he can "approximate" Superman's powers. How should we interpret that?
- 7,486
- 7,677
So remove it as an AP justification and move it to abilities?

The link doesn't work so I just replied on what you typed about replicating superman powers.
But approximating should deal with something with analysis but antvasima proposal also works well I guess.

I'll double check later on what Fate ends up doing.

Again, Kryptonite or Red sun is clark’s Weakness. Magic isn’t. Ignore he didn’t resist it, he would die from it
- 20,529

It is. He takes more damage from it, it regularly breaches his durability and he has no resistance to a decent swath of magical abilities. People confuse weakness with something like an active debuff when it's not. Humans are weak to swords and bullets, but neither emit human killing radiation. We just aren't tough enough to resist a claymore slicing us in half.

- Justice League of America Vol 1 #37, August 1965
- Fate says his magic will help him approximate Superman's powers.
- Fate grabs and hits Thunder-Bolt against a ship's anchor.
- Fate breaks out of a folded anchor
- Justice League of America Vol 1 #38, September 1965
- Fate says he not only has to duplicate the fake Superman's powers but top them too.
- Magic protects fate from Fake Superman, and nothing can protect Superman from his magic.
- Fate's wizard fist hits Fake Superman with telling effect. Fate knows that Magic is a weakness of Superman so he dished out a big helping of it with his attacks.
