Why isn't Sodom Yat one of the most powerful in DC?

It seems to me he is Superman with a GL ring and regular Supes has beaten and gone toe to toe with Darkside who is supposed to be one of the strongest in DC. I feel like there aren't too many that could take Superman with the added powers of a ring so why isn't Sodom Yat just wrecking the whole DC universe?

Sodam Yat is Superboy Prime level. There are plenty of people who could beat him.

He's not "wrecking the whole DC universe" because he's an unpopular character.

Cause he was trapped for years. He just got out recently and went right back into hiding.

well he is the usual go to power set dc uses: extremely strong guy with flight. geez how many characters with that power are there?

@i_dont_like_comics: tons. Basically, the same number as marvel has street level guys.

@karazor-el: not really. there are way more super strong guys at dc than street level guys at marvel.

@i_dont_like_comics: you think so? I feel like marvel has about 500 street level characters.

@karazor-el: at dc i feel you can throw a stone and hit 5 captain marvels, 3 kryptonians and a martian.

@i_dont_like_comics: yea, thats what im saying. Theres tons of thors, hyperions, shazaams, orions around. Just like marvel has a billion street level characters. I think we're agreeing.

@karazor-el: uh yeah. sure. let's go with that.

@jonez120: I get that he's unpopular but how does DC explain Superman with a GL ring losing to anybody if Superman hardly ever loses. If PIS wasn't involved how powerful could he be?

@roronuffy: superman lost to ocean master.

Its clear when someone doesnt read comics and lists PIS

@karazor-el: i agree it was pis but it happened.

dc has the most powerhouses, but also the most without powers at all

so there are lots in that power range, but lots that don't last a second
