    What if someone is going to use kryptonite against superman, how far does it need to be to affect him? If he wears gloves will he able to take it away and does he need gloves? Is the pain so unbearable even superman can't try to take it away from the opponent? Is kryptonite an abundant material?

    Depends on the writer, but even with K, he's still insanely strong. He could still knock someone's block off.

    People act like Kryptonite makes Superman a blobbering mess on the floor. He fought of Superdoom, a 5th dimensional imp andthe K-men all in the presence of Kryptonite.

    The dude fought A MAN MADE OF KRYPTONITE, I am pretty sure he could just take the kryptonite ring from someones hand ( example batman ) and crush the kryptonite:

    Superman can power through kryptonite, unless PMS comes into play.

    Depends on writer. Some have it emit radiation that affects him, while others just have it that its only the touch that's effective.
