Superman (Original) upgrade

Is there anything left to discuss regarding the OP?

Well, I don't think that we have applied the "shattering skyscrapers" statistic yet, but given that we do not know how it was performed, it may be impossible to get a proper calculation.

I know you're seperating GA Supe's Tier of High 8-C and 4-C to differentiate between his first appearance in the late 30's - early 40's and the period in which he started to become stupidly OP, but what exactly is the splitting off point? I have this respect thread of noticeable feats https://www.reddit.com/r/respectthreads/comments/9pnn3r/respect_golden_age_superman_dc_earthtwo/

In particular

Breaking a building over a plane: https://i.imgur.com/unTpPlK.jpg

Throws one boulder into another hard enough to shatter both: https://i.imgur.com/tVeYCEK.jpg

I would say if nothing else that City busting meteor is definitely early GA Superman, and could put him at Small City Level.

Lifting the Appalachian Mountain Range has got be Island Level at least.

I honestly looked more at the sustained fusion out of metals that are unlikely to be able to produce natural energy from such procecces.

Or the feat of throwing anything of a significant size across the planet, but that's likely just me.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, we can obviously use the feats from his earliest appearances.

Calculations would be best though.

[SuperAPM]

Which priority level shoukd I use for my request?

 

[Antvasima]

3, if I remember correctly, as it only concerns a single character.

 

[SuperAPM]

Ok, just did it now

 

[Antvasima]

Thanks.

If you like that then here's one feat I missed; Throwing a skyscraper around the world: https://imgur.com/a/b8HSg

Also a Saucer outta the Solar System which is pretty neat: https://imgur.com/a/z7dBE

Also to verify that these feats wouldn't contribute to his 4-C rating, here's three other Planetary-Star level feats:

Using a Rocketship runway to slingshot a Moon at high velocity: https://imgur.com/a/HIEmC3h

Destroying Earth's replica with an Asteroid: https://imgur.com/a/5bKWF

And slamming two moons together with enough force to turn them into a Star, then moving a planet into said Stars orbit: https://i.imgur.com/UoRDvgM.jpg

All three are quite a bit above the other feats I mentioned and appear to be at the period of Superman's career where he's gotten significantly stronger than at the beginning of his career. That Island shaking feat for instance seems to be the limit of Supe's power at that point in time, so it would more than likely contribute to his High 8-C rating

I'm honestly trying to calc them myself and let me just say...

Not to say that I didn't before but I really see why we have an entire division of this site for this.
