    His best feat is lifting the weight of the Earth for 5 days and barely breaking a sweat. It's ridiculous and completely unnecessary.

    That is a high end feat not his regular strength. Because if we take into account high or respectively low feats like that. Bane is capable of drawing blood from Superman like Batman did while on Venom.

    You take into account the majority of feats not only one or two to judge the power levels.

    It was written and drawn like he was casually lifting the weight with no problem, but to be fair, I don't remember who the writer was at the time.

    He indeed do it casually but it doesn't matter. What I am saying is, that this is one feat from a whole gallery of feats that disagree with it or don't support it.

    I guess what I am saying is that you should see the forest and not the tree.

    @azza04: I'm in the minority that does, I hear stuff about Thor and surfer taking on extremely powerful beings, superman doing any of those 2 mentioned should not be a crime especially considering the universe he lives in

    @redatom1234: Superman is a mostly Earth bound hero though compared to Thor and Surfer.

    @azza04: I know but the threats he deals with and the situations in the DCU, I'd think that bench pressing earth like its Sunday morning is not so far out of what he's capable of

    @azza04: The writer for the said issue was Scott Lobdell. Not many people were a big fan of his stories.

    Nearly every single piece of fiction contains more low-ends than high-ends.

    DBZ for example has so many low-ends you could make very successful cases for the entire verse to be lowballed.

    High-ends are the way to go because of that.

    I am not much of a battle forum poster so I don't research feats but I personally consider the average "feat" to be the true one. You know the power level the character will hold during almost all his stories, rather than the overwhelming instances.

    @squalleon There is no single powerlevel remains consistent. Each High-end is scarce for a reason. And low-ends are incredibly common because of it.

    Consistant High-ends don't exist if it did, it would lose it's weight.

    High ends are to show what the character can REALLY do, while low-ends are their low-showings (lowballed).
