WRONG!![]()
Your link showing the nuke explosion is all wrong. I'm talking about the Maggedon Warhead not a basic Nuke. Cap died in that nuke blast from Kingdom Come. Here is a scan of Superman taking (at point blank range) the Maggedon Warhead. Which is capable of destroying half a galaxy.
.
Earth means Earth. If Superman is indeed mightier then he would have the title.
If you really read Superman/Batman #5 then you would have read Superman admitting that Captain Marvel, due to the nature of his powers, has the edge over him toe to toe.
It is true. Someone with Marvel's capabilities can capitalize on such an advantage. Only DC's bias allow someone like Luthor or anyone with a decent intelligence to fail in using such knowledge in proper use.
The truest sense of immortality means you cannot die whether you like it or not no matter what the cause.
That alone contradicts your claim the Supes is immortal. And even though he grows stronger his weaknesses remain.
You sure about that? Doomsday can't be killed by Supes anymore. Hell, even the stronger Supes got his arm broken by Doomsday in one of their rematch.
You mean "Disarming at point blank range"
In cannon it has almost always been a draw but CM should win considering the magic aspect, lightning etc.
Or perhaps CM changes to BB just as SM lands a blow which kills BB but drives SM mad with anguish over the death of BB
-I swear you are as bad as Hulk fanboys. You are wrong, even an idiot knows that the title "Earth's mightiest mortal" means the mightiest of the humans. Clark isn't a human so therefore doesn't fall under that category. What about Hal Jordan? He wields the most powerful weapon in the universe. Are you going to tell me Marvel is mightier than the most powerful weapon in the universe?...LOL
-So you conclude from that statement that Superman can't beat him?
-I'll repeat this for you..
"Superman explains what has happened in a quick monologue: He and Batman allowed Hawkman and Captain Marvel to think they had bested them in order to give Katana and Power Girl the time and opportunity to track down the boy in Tokyo. At the first chance, the two heroes bested their captors and disguised themselves as them in order to approach the White House without incident."
So much for that advantage, Bats and Supes bested Hawkman and Marvel..i.e. they beat them and disguised themselves as Marvel and Hawkman.
-Again just because Marvel's powers are magic based doesn't mean an automatic win for him against Superman. My logic holds, Superman has battled magical beings and come out on top. Superman has battled Marvel. Logically if Superman can defeat magical beings then he can defeat Marvel in battle.
-There is more than one definition of "immortal". Each are equally valid. Superman cannot die from old age so in that sense he is immortal. So no it does not contradict my claim as there is more than one definition of immortal.
-That was in Superman/Doomsday Hunter Prey. That came out soon after Superman's return from death. Doomsday and Supes have battle since then.
SUPERMAN: THE DOOMSDAY WARS 1-3, and SUPERMAN #175.
In fact here is a scan of Superman moving so fast he goes intangable. Doomsdays blows are going through him.

I'd like to add more this my first rebuttal in a previous quote. It's wasn't because Captain Marvel that DC change Superman's powers.
When making the Max Fleischer cartoons, the Fleischer Brothers found it difficult to keep animating him leaping and requested to DC to change his ability to flying. Writers gradually increased his powers to larger extents during the Silver Age.
Also yes the more sunlight Clark absorbs the more powerful he becomes. When Superman reaches 100 years of age he will be more powerful. When he is 10,000 years old he will be more powerful than at 100. As I said before...
The longer he lives, the exponentially greater his life expectancy than becomes. The longer he is alive, the more solar energy he takes in. This further increases his body's resiliency, and efficiency, which then leads to his life expectancy increasing,w hich leads to his body becoming even more efficient, further staving off the breakdown of his body, which leads to even more solar energy absorption, which leads to an increase again in his life expactancy, and the cycle goes on and on. THe only way for him to grow old and die is to be away from any kind of yellow sunlight forever. In an environment with a yellow sun, he can not grow old and die.
This is a fact about Superman.
Also the affect Kryptonite has on him diminishes the longer he lives.
Am I missing something?
He disarmed it he didnt take the blast.
The first scan is clear he is taking the energy of the Warhead.
From the scan...
"Clark that is the essence of Maggedon."
"You can't handle that alone."
Later on Superman says..."Here it comes...concentrated anti-sunlight."
Then it shows Superman visibility in pain saying..."Urgh...Great Krypton...the cold sick horror it..."
Superman is taking the power of the Maggedon Warhead at point blank range.
Why don't you look on a mirror?![]()
Earth's mightiest means Earth's mightiest. I just applying the same logic that you used to accept a definition of immortal to fit Superman in the category of immortal.
So what about Hal Jordan wielding DC universe's most powerful weapon(I seriously don't buy that)? Is CM a weapon? Or maybe you forgot his title? Do you think mightiest = most powerful? Your logic seems to slip away as we move on.t:
And when did I said that? hmmmm?![]()
Maybe you forgot what Superman said after blasting CM? SUPERMAN SAID THAT CAPTAIN MARVEL HAS THE ADVANTAGE TOE TO TOE DUE TO THE NATURE OF HIS POWERS.
LOGIC 101.....again: A winning over B does not mean A would also win against C if B won against C.
Literary definitions. But the true meaning of immortal......... Base on that it is logically sound to say that Superman is a mortal.
It is already canon that Doomsday can't be killed by Superman coz he already killed him and thus Doomsday evolved to make sure that does not happen again. So it is only logical that Superman can't kill Doomsday just by using his own powers. And Superman there was not intangible. It just shows that he dodged the blow and the intangible-like effect is just to show how fast he is. See that part where he flies/leaps to avoid a hammer strike from Doomsday? If he can be intangible then he does not need to escape. See how my logic is better than yours?![]()
An alibi presented to the court when the makers of Captain Marvel sued DC. The most common and logical conclusion why they adapted the flying ability is because Captain Marvel was more popular during those times.
And the next statements are also wrong. A human and a Kryptonian exposed to a red sun when both is facing a loaded gun.......what's the difference?![]()
Superman can't be killed.......right.
Adding again. If Clark was exposed to a red star, the effects of Kryptonite would have been slower. The fact that Kryptonite affects him instantly because of his exposure to the yellow star, our Sun. Don't tell me you don't know that SM fanboy.t:
No SM is being exposed to what powers the warhead not the actual blast and apparently he needs the JLA as a psychic anchor
-Yes, Earths mightiest means the mightiest human mortal. Captain Marvel is the mightiest human earth mortal. Im not going to keep going over and over this with you. I know its hard for you to accept you are wrong but get over it.
-YOU are the only one who believes Marvel is the Mightiest of all mortals. When in fact his title claims he is the Mightiest Earth mortal, meaning of the humans. Superman isnt human and doesnt fall into this category. Its not the same logic, as I said there is more than one definition of immortal each are equally valid. Marvels title is Earths mightiest mortal. There is no bending and twisting what the title means.
-You dont buy it because it shows you are wrong. FYI its been established by DC themselves that a Green Lantern wields The most powerful weapon in the Universe. Read any Green Lantern book and see.
-Of course I know a GL ring is a weapon, but that weapon gives the wielder the power. Just as the wizard SHAZAM gave Billy Batson his. YOU Toby have been claiming Marvel is the mightiest of the mortals. YOU have been implying he is the most powerful. Dont you remember this? YOU claimed Marvel is more powerful/mightier than Superman, because according to YOU hes Earths mightiest mortal. In terms of raw power a Green Lantern (by wielding the most powerful weapon in the universe) is the most powerful/mightiest.
-You've been implying it throughout your posts. When you voted in the poll who did you pick? Let me quess Marvel!
-I know what Superman said about the toe-to-toe advantage. Apparently that didnt help because Superman took out Marvel, and Batman took out Hawkman. Then disguised themselves as the Hawkman and Captain Marvel. So much for that advantage.
-Wrong, you see many fanboys believe this magical weakness means Superman cant win against (said magical foe). This isnt true, as I stated before Superman has defeated magical foes before and held his own against Marvel. Logically this shows Supermans weakness to magic is not so much a weakness. See how my logic is better than yours?
-As I said EACH of those definitions of immortality are equally valid. Superman cannot die from old age therefore by definition he is an immortal. Just like the Elves in the J.R.R. Tolkien books.
-I never said Superman killed Doomsday in those new battles. I said he defeated Doomsday in those battles. He IS going intangible, the top right part of that scan shows Superman (taking a trick from the Flash) standing still and vibrating so fast he goes intangible, which is why Doomsdays fist goes through his head. Why would Superman be intangible throughout the whole battle? If he remained intangible for the rest of the battle he wouldnt have been able to punch and KO Doomsday because his fist would go through Doomsday. After Doomsdays fist goes through him, he flies over Doomsday, gets behind him and hits him with heat vision before pounding him into the dirt. Thats what the comic shows.
-Your logic isnt logic its ignorance. See how my logic is better than yours?
I have a source which proves my argument. Do you have one for yours?
The Fleischer brothers asked DC to allow Superman to fly because it was harder to draw him leaping all the time. Here is the source
- ^Cabarga, Leslie, Beck Jerry, Fleischer, Richard (Interviewees). (2006). "First Flight: The Fleischer Superman Series" (supplementary DVD documentary). Superman II (Two-Disc Special Edition) [DVD]. Warner Bros..
Pay attention young padewon because you obvisously are not. Youve been watching too much Justice League Unlimited.
He's sort of like a battery. A battery under constant charge will burn out, but Clark keeps building a larger and larger store of solar energy. It's not like the moment he
is exposed to a yellow sun he gets powers, and the minute he's somewhere else he loses them. He's got a vast energy reserve he can draw upon, and when that runs out he's powerless. Right now in the comics Superman is between 29-35 years of age. This means, hes got 29-35 years of store up solar energy store up inside him. If Superman were to be transported to a planet with a red sun he wouldnt automatically lose his powers.
It would depend on
A. How much solar energy reserves hes got stored up.
B. How much of that stored up energy he uses.
So when Superman is 100 years old he will have decades of energy stored up inside him. Its the same thing if he were 10,000 years old. Hed have 10,000 years of stored up solar energy.
Can you read? Where did I say Superman cant be killed? I said he cant die of old age. Dont you understand the difference? It is true the older he gets the harder it will be for a foe to kill him. This has been established and shown in the comics.
Read the Our worlds at war storyline. There Superman plunges into the sun to get uber powerful so he can push war-world into a boom tube to the beginning of time.
Still dont believe me that the more solar energy he absorbs the more powerful and resilent he gets? Have you ever read DC One Million? Its a story about a potential future of the DC Universe 83,000 years from now. Long story short, Superman leaves earth at the end of the 21st century. Why because his friends and family/loved ones have all died of old age. He leaves earth to his son Superman Secondus, which is the child Clark and Lois had. Superman doesnt return to earth for 67,000 years. When he does he locates his decendant Superman One Million and makes a covenant with him. Superman then retreats into the sun and hibernates for 16,000 years, he absorbs so much solar energy that he essentially becomes a new god. He leaves the sun only to destroy the baddie in the story.
-No it depends on how much solar energy he absorbs. As I said above
-He's sort of like a battery. A battery under constant charge will burn out, but Clark keeps building a larger and larger store of solar energy. It's not like the moment he is exposed to a yellow sun he gets powers, and the minute he's somewhere else he loses them. He's got a vast energy reserve he can draw upon, and when that runs out he's powerless. He will at some point in the future be immune to kryptonite.
I believe in Kingdom Come Superman was more immune to Kryptonite which is why Marvel had to battle him.
Look Im not going to sit here and go back and forth with someone as ignorant as you. You obviously have a hard time comprehending Captain Marvels title Earths mightiest Mortal. You have a clear ignorance of Superman, how his powers work, etc. You are a waste of time and I will no longer continue debating you. Ive provided a rebuttal to your lame arguments which was my purpose in replying to this once dead topic.
It has been established by DC that Captain Marvel is not as strong as Superman when he is not holding back. Thats why Caps strength is compared to Wonder Womans and Martian Manhunters who DC says are both not as strong as Superman.
