    @thorson: It's downright terrible and based on speculation. Don't waste your time.

    No, I deem this source UNRELIABLE. Wonder Woman stats are rubbish, she's way better than that.

    They made the Anti-Monitor weaker than those three.

    Their credibility is incredibly low, to the point that it almost makes me want to cry.

    @thorson:

    Superherodb takes into account all feats from all timelines/versions of the characters.

    So if you're looking for specific information about lets say, current version... Then that site maybe it's not the best source of information.

    But rare are the sites that distinguish comic book characters from their various versions. You'd be more lucky to ask the fans to give you a résumé of all events, than to expect one site to have all the correct information.

    Some. But they all share the same problem.

    All versions compressed into one sole analysis.

    Honestly I don't have the time, or I do it myself. A site were each version feats and power levels were described in detail.

    That way new and old fans, could get an idea of how much the character changed from timeline to timeline.

    A wholly simplified and inaccurate summarisation of the powers and abilities of many comic book characters. You're better off not paying attention to superhero database sites and power rankings, that's not the best way to determine the accuracy of a character's powers, abilities and feats.

    They don't cite their sources, so no.

    Shitty trash. Full of ignorance, bias, tell a lot of bullshits about many characters, lowballs them to oblivion or wanks from unknown reasons.
