Superman is currently High 8-C because he can tank a blast able to shatter skyscrapers.

However, shattering skyscrapers is 8-A+ to Low 7-C so his tier should be adjusted
 
Shattering skyscrapers is multi-city block level to small town level?

Yep.

Not that surprising when you consider that 8-C is a two-three stories building tbh
 
I'm not sure if the accepted result is 8-A or Low 7-C, so maybe "At least 8-A, likely Low 7-C" could work?
 
Low 7-C is the end we use for fragmenting skyscrapers, although if there's an actual scan of the feat in question it could likely be calced for a more accurate result
 
There is no feat, just a statement. We should preferably call some calc group member to comment here.
 
I would also prefer a calculated feat. It depends on how the skycraper was destroyed.

Feel free to ask calc group members, along with Sandman31 and Matthew, to comment here.
 
@Ant

It's only a statement, the feat doesn't actually happen.

Low 7-C is simply the average value to shatter skyscrapers
 
Okay. I thought that the feat happened, but that we did not have the images wherein it occurred.
 
Well, I suppose that this might be fine, but would still prefer more staff input.
 
I think that "At least 8-A" should probably be acceptable.
 
Black Lantern Kal-L 001
Question, Golden Age Superman is the same Superman with the Black Lantern Ring, correct? So why isn't this included in his problem???
 
It was a very temporary state for him, and it is also disrespectful to the character to feature him as a zombie.

Also why isn't Golden Age Superman not 2-C?

He killed a fully powered Anti-Monitor, who was capable of destroying the DC Multiverse then consisting of an infinite number of universes, with just bare punches alone, during the events of Crisis On Infinite Earths, also in his fight with both Post-Crisis Superman and Superboy-Prime threatened to destroy the entire multiverse.
 
The Anti-Monitor was severely weakened at the time, and it would be an outlier otherwise

The Flash had a more impressive feat against the COIE Anti-Monitor, and we do not consider him as 2-A because of it.
 
Anyway, this is off-topic for the thread. I will close it now
 
Never mind. The page was never updated based on the original topic. That still has to be dealt with.
 
I also have a question regarding the notes section on his page: It is said that his fight with Superboy Prime was what broke the space-time continuum. IIRC, it was his fight with Post-Crisis Superman that broke the space-time continuum.

This seems fine to apply.
 
Is somebody experienced/competent willing to perform the edits?
 
You can remind Kaltias and AKM to comment here again if you wish.
 
Given that there's only a statement about the attack being able to shatter a skyscrapper, I'm not entirely sure if we should assume the complete fragmentation of every single part of it. Because a skyscrapper can also be levelled by destroying its bases or foundations.

I feel like this could at least be another key for the characters involved, considering how many of them Blackest Night impacted.

Anarky got a ring for a cup of coffee and we count that, right?
 
I think that the zombie versions of the characters are redundant and disrespectful.
 
Mainly towards the characters, but the original creators as well, yes.
 
When the hell did that happen? I know I tend to be out of the loop but I don't remeber hearing of that story from anyone.

Is that a sub-categories of the Marvels Zombies storyline?

Yeah. The zombies ate Galactus and become cosmically powerful for a bit.

It happened in the first Marvel Zombies series.
 
The Zombie Galacti are at least handled as separate characters. Inserting a zombie version of the original Superman who only appeared briefly into his page would be pointless and disrespectful. Sorry, but that is final as far as I am concerned.
