    Surviving OB. Well one can say it's because Darkseid's been jobbing a lot. But the fanboy in me wants to look at it as Superman being able to withstand the full power of the Omega Beams. Hehehehehe!

    True but even the batkick pales in comparison to the psychic devastation that is the batglare

    @omega_kai: Given his durability feats, I don't see why not. They did mention the whole "absorbed enough energy to vaporize a galaxy" feat. I refuse to get into this though, the thread would get locked due to arguing.

    You bumped this thread for no reason just to reply to me saying, "I'm opening a whole other can of worms." You see the other guys post after mine right? I could of replied back and said Superman would get vapiorized by a Kamehameha, but I didn't.

    Edit: Plus all I said is he can't he replied to me first.

    @omega_kai:

    Actually he can. And this is me opening a can of worms.

    All DBZ fans got it easy. DBZ plays loose with the facts and feats, at one time thrown random numbers of power, that even today are the center for a lot of memes joking around that 9000 schtick.

    Superman is what he is. While Goku might go against powerful foes, seeing that in that universe, something like laws are thrown out the window, I'll never take DBZ seriously.

    To me, all DBZ feats amount to nothing, because at the end of the day, no one in their right mind believes the DBZ universe is even possible.

    While DC and Marvel, although also fictional universes at least they try to hold on to some base rules and laws.

    Time and time again there's been Superman vs The Flash debates. And everytime the question of "Who's the fastest man on Earth" question is made, the Flash wins for a very simple reason. The Flash can speed up and stop almost instantely to light speed, and even moving at sublight speeds he never has problems with inertia or creating shockwaves. Well... Superman isn't powered by this upper dimensional energy called the Speed Force and as such he can't instantely speed up and stop, nor can he prevent shockwaves caused by his speed. So although he's been seen moving billions of times the speed of light in space, making him has fast if not faster than the Flash, on Earth he never even comes close to light speed, because of the rules and laws he's bound to.

    On DBZ or DBS now. There are no rules. At least none that anyone with half a brain can believe in.

    It was like that stupid scene in Resurrection of F, so we have Goku that's supposedly near Beerus level, a guy that's been said time and time again he could destroy the entire universe, and still Goku is beaten by a simple laser weapon.

    At least Superman when he's strong he's strong, and when he's invulnerable he's invulnerable, he doesn't simply stop being invulnerable, just because he has beaten his adversary and then he chose to relax.

    So here's a hint. Stop trying to mix the two together. Comics and Manga. Comics I can believe and even relate. Manga is just for fun, and I never in a million years would take most of the stuff said seriously.
