well doesn't the increase in strength and ability not matter as long as the character is the same. this is the agreement that is given for green lantern and batman for new 52. supreme was never retcon so he is still the same supreme. classic supreme+ moore supreme. I mean im just going by the rules of continuity here. lets say superman gets a new writer but all he does is make him more powerful but doesn't change his story that superman would be the same superman just stronger. what do you think?
Actually it does matter, as classic Supreme was specified, in which anything past the classic era is not valid to bring up in the battle. By specifying a version, the OP is restricting the character to classic levels of power and feats. That is the way the battle forums work when you specify a version of the character. Which is why I brought the issue up to the OP in my initial post to get the version broadened, to make for a better battle. We can argue semantics all we like, but it doesn't change the fact that the classic version was specified, and the power levels in the classic run would not make it in this lineup.
I am not trying to be argumentative with you my friend, I am just going by battle forum rules. Issues 1-40 are the classic levels, issue 41 and beyond are the newer era, which is what is needed for a fair battle here. It would be like someone stating classic Spider-Man (classic Spidey had problems with baseline humans), classic Thor (had ridiculous speed feats while modern Thor has issues with Wolvie level speed), classic Superman (could be harmed by explosives and such), so forth and so on. Those are very distinct versions as opposed to modern counterparts.
Yes, throughout continuity, characters may get better and more powerful, but that has no bearing on when a thread creator specifies a very specific version of the character, in which here he stated classic Supreme.
