    throwing Brainiac's ship into the sun? can someone show me that feat?

    That hasn't happened at all in the New 52, he threw it into a Black Hole and that was only because he had Brainiac's psionic power at his disposal.

    @codysf said:

    Is he able to take a Super nova now?

    No New 52 Superman cannot take a supernova at all based on his showings thus far. At best, Superman has withstood the collateral shockwave of planetary destruction but he wasn't close to the epicentre of the shockwave. He has survived travelling through several black holes but that's more of a high end feat.

    That's not the same. What Clark tossed into the sun was the control device of braniac that stretched its tendrils across NYC. It's not what Supes deemed moon sized.

    My apologizes. I thought moons were made up of some rock or metal, but if moons were made up of cheese, Kraakooomm wouldn't be the sound that a cheese moon would make if it explodes.

    Actually, Superman did punch the Brainiac God. The Brainiac Avatars felt that punch. That makes the feat even better considering Brainiac God is a match for Darkseid and Anti Monitor.

    @kenshima15: It's kind of similar to Darkseid having his avatars. the Real Darkseid is much more powerful. Brainiac God has avatars of himself. The real Brainiac is much more powerful.

    Spoilers: Superman punched both Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan like nothing. Goku Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan does his kamehameha. Superman walked through the Kamehameha like nothing. Superman heated Goku's brain and killed him. King Kai told Goku that Superman had no limits while Goku has limits.

    I'm being serious because I actually saw it at SGC live on youtube.

    @lvenger: A black hole feat is far above a planetary feat

    And what do you mean by his durability is inconsistent? Most of his feats he doesn't even feel anything he got slapped across the planet by a dragon and said ow and that was about 30 minutes after he was bench pressing the weight of earth for 5 days

    He stood in the mantle of earth after getting his ass kicked by wraith and after getting shot by red sun bullets

    Also he stood on Venus while fighting doomsday and while his death powers were killing him

    Venus is 800 degrees Fahrenheit and has the pressure of the bottom of the ocean and it didn't even bother him

    @deathsdoor726: Well I can get more firm and call in a mod to resolve this if you're not willing to be reasonable. I have no idea how this discourse between you and the other guy started but it has no place on a thread for Superman's feats. This isn't the place to rekindle the Goku vs Superman war. Just stick with discussing Superman feats please and I might answer your last post to me.

    Superman basically defies the laws of thermodynamics, so there's not really a way to gauge his power. I mean, physics sort of loses coherence without that, so mass/energy etc. cease to have meaning. To the extent that Superman makes any sense it's as something like antimass and a high temperature superconductor, which would mean he really can't be 'destroyed' in any conventional sense, because the harder you hit him the more he resists.

    Superheroes violate the laws of physics in practice all the time, but Superman does so in principle. Superman feats are kind of like God/Boulder Lifting competition theology.

    @the_warboy: Someone who can control their density is actually very dangerous and that dragon was far from ordinary, it could barely hurt him either.

    You're also forgetting that Supes is always holding back; so people he could normally decimate might get a few hits in because he's sandbagging them.

    @vtech325: Unless she can make herself weigh more than a planet it was inconsitsant trash. Same with tge dragon.

    Superman doesn't hold back his durability

    If her power is as advertised, then yes, she can. And she realistically would cap-out her powers if she new she was going toe-to-toe with Superman.

    Also, the Dragon really didn't do much. All it did was knock him really far away and manage to make him say, "ow".

    @the_warboy: Cute 79 posts

    If you hit superman off guard it does pretty much nothing but if you hit goku off guard then he gets knocked out

    I'm pretty sure the feat is on here but after bench pressing the sun for a few days without any sun light he flew to the sun for a split second and then he went to work then he quit and fought a kryptonian dragon which knocked him to Ireland and he was caught off guard

    And all he said was ow a few times while when goku was shot he almost died
