I've to admit that i was a bit worried about Dan Jurgens after his last run on Superman but he has won me over with his Superman Lois and Clark and also with his Action Comics. Despite the fact i didn't like the first arc very much ( i didn't hate it either but i was expecting an Epic fight with Doomsday instead of that boring punching contest..) i liked the mysteries that he has been teasing since then and mostly i really like his characterization: his Superman really feels like Superman and behaves like Superman should , even Lois and Jon seem like real people with real and plausible emotions.

However these two new enemies do seem a bit dated tbh, but i am still excited for this new story arc since the premise it's still good

Action Comics may seem very generic, but i don't mind: Superman on an alien world it's just classic and i'd like to see a cosmic story once in a while.

Then regarding the Superman title,well, i trust Tomasi and Gleason: his art is really good looking,dynamic and cartoonish almost like the Aaron Kuder's work

REFLEXES:

Intercepting and redirecting multiple kryptonite laser beams even if he was severely weakened.
Superman could track down multiple light speed signals (light travels exactly 29.9792458 centimeters in 1 nanosecond) inside the most advanched kryptonian warship he had ever seen./ Seeing and avoiding multiple kryptonite laser beams while weakened (then he gets caught by surpise and he is punched by the ship ,since he didn't know it could change form ,but in the next panel he avoids the next hit)
On the verge of death, Hal Jordan slows down the time in a fraction of nanosecond,but Clark was able to move and talk like nothing changed by speeding himself up to that fraction of time. This feat is from Action Comics Weekly # 642 ,it's a 1989 comic book, so we are 4 years into the Modern Age. Here Superman says "for some reason" because this was back before Hal or most of the Justice League knew that Clark Kent was Superman, he can't exactly say "I'm secretly Superman, so I'm not affected by the time dilation". There's nothing in the entire issue that suggests the ring decidedly to randomly select Superman for no reason and raise his speed up. The reason isn't unknown to Clark; he just doesn't want Hal and Deadman to know what that reason is because it would give away his secret identity.
Superman could speed up his reflexes to match the Barry Allen's ones so they could have a quite and long conversation while the surroundings seemed frozen in time.
Clark has carried Braniac's hybrid baby to the daily planet globe in about a nanosecond,despite the fact he could barely hold this powerful child. So Superman could fly a great distance,think and stop himself inside the fortress in that time frame while struggling to keep the baby who had enough power to destroy Metropolis as it was stated in The Adventures of Superman # 603.We see the baby releasing his energy on the surface of the globe but then we clearly see that the Daily Planet is perfectly intact meaning that the biggest part of the burst was probably contained by Superman and his fortress
Superman could see Barry Allen running faster than light next to him to avoid the Omega beams and the Black Racer

@heavenlydarkdragon:

Well dc has a long story regarding bad decision for Superman but i doubt that they will be crazy enough to reveal that the current superman is not the pre-52 one, despite what Mr OZ said: Superman's titles are well reviewed and he is finally selling well...and that's all that matters and a huge part in this success is due to the fact that fans know that this Superman is the post crisis one. Then as for his feats and power levels they mean nothing,they always fluctuate with any different writer: pre-52 Superman could survive to sun eaters's explosion more than once but that doesn't mean he hasn't been damaged by far weaker forces,he could lift the infinity twice, he moved planets with the league but that doesn't mean he hasn't failed into lifting smaller objects on his own. The fact he has had problems into the core of the Earth in the current JL title means nothing,really, since he had dozen of better showings and he will have new ones with the time...both good and bad ones.

@earthmine5248 About the shadow moon Superman was already flying at close lightspeed so the fact that even the moon was moving toward our planet ads nothing to the feat imo. Then as for Superman smashing those planetoids inside the Golem's head the author stated that they weren't as big as planets: they probably were just as big as they look, more or less as big as buildings, that's why i haven't included such a feat

DURABILITY:

He survives to being double-punched by a being that possessed the power of all creation
Absorbs enough anti sunlight from a sun eater that would have vaporized half a galaxy
Superman was currently weakened by red sun radiation but he could still survive to the sun eater's detonation which was 50 times the size of the Kepler's Supernova
Surviving to a sun eater's explosion which was powerful enough to knock him light years away , from The Adventures of Superman # 477
Here Luthor possessed a near limitless power and he tried to use all of it to kill Superman. Luthor couldn't do anything negative if he wanted to keep his power (because that's how the Child changed the powers with its dying breath during the Black Ring saga) but Luthor reacts in pure anger as he realizes that he can do anything except destroy Superman and rejects his power by blasting at Superman in an attempt to kill him before the power leaves; Luthor tries but fails and Superman eventually defeats him.
Taking superboy-prime's punches (he was wearing his armor that increased his power even further) while they were flying trough an asteroids belt made of kryptonite,plus flying trough a red sun plus crashing on Oa.
Surviving to a supernova
Was right in the center of and survived the collision of Apokolips and New Genesis ( that are probably much bigger planets than Earth)
Surviving to the Omega Beams while he was exposed to the Kryptonite
Surviving to the Omega Beams while he was exposed to the Kryptonite
Taking the Darkseid's omega beams in multiple occasions
Withstanding to the equivalent pressure of a giant black hole
Withstanding to the equivalent pressure of the center of a star
Taking the Warworld's explosion
Getting his powers back by bathing in the sun in three occasions. ( In the last one he was weakened)
Resisting to a star's heat. This sun was from a different universe and it wasn't powering him up.

Flying into the sun during the Our Worlds at War saga
Superman tries to hold a sphere which was emitting a thermonuclear level heat
After being weakened by Khyber,Superman gets tossed deep into the Earth causing a massive devastation. Superman survives and emerges years later when he finally had absorbed enough energy from the heat and the molten rocks
Survives to a huge explosion on Apokolips
Survives to a huge explosion on Apokolips
Survives to an explosion as powerful as a million nuclear blasts
Surviving to a 5000 megaton explosion
Surviving to a 5000 megaton explosion
Takes a powerful blast from Coldcast straight to the head
Taking different blasts from Breach who was powerful enough to one shot Martian Manhunter
Taking powerful energy blasts from the Entropy Aegis that was probably the most advanced war suit of the pre-52 universe. (The first blast was powerful enough to destroy all of Metropolis)
Taking a nuke without being damaged even if there was some kryptonite around
Cyborg Superman was blasting Clark with enough energy to whipe out entire cities. (Here Hank Henshaw was amped by the energies of an entire alien planet)
Taking a huge energy beam from a mind controlled Hal Jordan
Walking through a blast fired from a Kyle's construct, the focus of his energies were directed at Superman
Surviving to the Golem's defenses, destroying some planetoids and taking a powerful explosion which released enough "strange energy" that scrambled even his cells
Superman was holding back but he could still damage the Emperor Joker and then he gets punched far into the outer space. ( The Emperor Joker was a near omnipotent being that had litterally flicked planets around in this issue)
Superman and Bizzarro had their minds exchanged, so here Clark is punching his body through the whole planet
Superman and Bizzarro had their minds exchanged, so here Clark is punching his body through the whole planet
Hit back by the Claw of Horus (a magical artifact), which is the equivalent of being punched with the whole planet
Getting punched and blasted to the moon in two occasions without being damaged
Superman is sent into space with an axe strike but he is just fine
Three dirrent examples of Superman not being harmed by incredibly powerful punches: he has been sent into orbit, from Metropolis to China and from Metropolis to Tokio.
Superman has brought a white dwarf star into the earth's core ( it did weight 100 tons but it was feeding his cells with sunlight) and used his hv and cold breath on it in order to restore our planet's gravity: by doing so he had to endure the heat and more than a planet's gravitational pull
Resisting to the explosion of a doomsday device while he was inside the earth's core. This impulse was stronger than the previous one that could still shake the whole planet
Taking Preus 's energy blasts and punches whilst weakened by liquid kryptonite. In the same story arc Preus could defeat the Martian Manhunter using just his optic blasts.
Taking an energy blast from Captain Atom
Taking an energy blast from Captain Atom
Inhaling an acid gas without being damaged
