Not in this case, its true I dont like Prime, he was basically an insult aimed at people complaining over the state of comics today and he killed a bunch of characters that didn't need it, but that isn't the same as me lowballing him.
Just to correct you on these:
- Actually it was the SA Superman that did the barrier punching.
- The Phantom Zone I will give you, but I am not quite sure how he actually managed that
- He could only get to the 5th Dimension and cross other dimensional borders because of the energy the Guardians gave him (turning him into Superman Prime)
I do not need correct in the above.
Also, just to put it out there, while I can't find the scan, Prime also punched his way out of the Speed force. There is no reason to believe that he needed to be amped to get to the 5th given that he'd already shown on a number of occasions that it was within his power to do.
I'm surprised a BL ring would ever seek him out, since he's never died. He did get a Red Lantern ring, courtesy of DC (since there were no RL in his universe), so I could imagine that had something to do with it (if it wasn't just lazy writing like the BL ring jumping onto the Spectre rather than it's host).
See this is leading me to believe you just don't know enough about Prime. He fought the black lanterns alone. And they could not defeat him. However, he admit he was still weak from not having his powers and took a BL ring to amp himself. He changed it to a red ring of his own will power. He rendered it ineffective.

So much like you saying, you don't know how he got out of the phantom zone, you don't know how he got the BL ring. You're lack of knowledge is having you lowball him. And honestly the only poor lazy writing was him losing. His wins were so consistent, that they should have created a more acceptable way for him to be defeated. However, most fans wanted him gone so bad, they ran with what they were given.
He wouldn't. Prime, without being amped, was barely any stronger than the other Supermen, even with the harness. DC on the other hand seems to agree that Trigon is far too powerful for Superman or even the entire League to actually handle.
Again, I don't understand why you're saying this. Prime was too powerful for the JLA, Superman, Powergirl, Supergirl to handle. Him losing was the biggest feat of PIS in of his career. The entire JLA couldn't defeat prime while he was mostly depowered. He was still able to out move Barry Allen while amped. Overpowered MM and manhandle the rest. It wasn't until the Superman Family showed up that they got the upperhand. Yet once restored, he crushes the JLA, Yellow and Green lantern's alone.
