Example. Superman has pushed a planet by a chain - Superman has been tossed by batman + Lex luthor's constantly outsmarting Superman = he should not be classified as super genius nor unstoppable


In other words let's put a high showing and minus it by a low showing and come up with a happy compromise

Wonder Woman + taking on Superman - She can't take a bullet = she shouldn't take out Superman ever

Your turn

[force_echo]

You're kidding.. right? This is a joke?

[MarvelFan15]

Most of the incongruities for characters arise due to this little facet of comicbook business. That being said, the bullet thing has already been explained. She can withstand blunt force trauma just fine, but objects with higher penetration powers tend to nerf her durability advantages.

But, let's do a DBZ example, just for fun:

Goku + Goku withstanding punches form people who can lift thousands of tons - Getting hurt with a rock thrown by Krillin = Goku cannot take out Superman, ever.

Superman has pushed a planet by a chain

This was, if i recall correctly, pre-crisis Superman.

Superman has been tossed by batman

This was, again if I recall correctly, Post-crisis Superman, which means that those two cannot be used to figure out what the character is capable or incapable of doing, it's basically like using Martian Manhunter and Superman, to figure out what Superman is capable of doing.

Lex luthor's constantly outsmarting Superman

This is not true, While Luther generally does outsmart Superman, he does this by making a lot of things happen, which distract Superman from what he's actually doing, plus every now and again, Superman does see through the various schemes that he comes up with.

he should not be classified as super genius nor unstoppable

Classifying him as a Super Genius, would depend on the version of Superman, some are, others aren't.

As for the unstoppable, again, it depends on the version, most versions aren't, but some like Superman 1M most likely would.

In other words let's put a high showing and minus it by a low showing and come up with a happy compromise

How about we actually read about the character, figure out what they are capable of in general, rather than using the extremes from high and low, which in no way accurately show what the character is capable of.

Wonder Woman + taking on Superman

Based on her powers and skills, this is not a problem.

She can't take a bullet

If you haven't understood why this doesn't really is a problem in a fight against Superman by now, then you are obviously never going to understand it, but for those of us who actually understand how the character works, this isn't an issue.

she shouldn't take out Superman ever

And for those of us who actually know the character, we already know why she is capable of taking out Superman, on a fairly regular basis.

Your turn

Considering that thus far your turn has consisted of showing that you don't understand the character you're talking about, and mixing different versions of the same character, I don't really see why we should continue this thread, other than trying to correct the obvious mistakes you have shown.

[silversurfer092]

Dr. Pymp, I think you're just an idiot who wants to see Superman fail.

[Dr. Pymp(mex)]

Doesn't understand the character? Haha what's not to underhand it's a comic. You know what kids read. If you all expect me to just roll over because DC makes WW look like a peanuts comic then sure I will.

Different versions of superman matters not, as they are all superman. Alternate crap is all semantics.

Anyway this was to be for fun. Like Goku getting hit on the head by Krillin is.

Another one is this. Magneto can create worm holes - he gets slashed by Logan in Fatal Attractions = Logan is bad ass or = Magneto is aweak ass lol

Or Yamcha + taking on Olibu - losing to Krillin = Olibu is weak.

[Dr. Pymp(mex)]

Dr. Pymp, I think you're just an idiot who wants to see Superman fail.

Fail??? So when did he become real? I can give two shits if he fails or not. I'm the idiot, yet you get butt sore over this hahaha

Child please!!

Doesn't understand the character? Haha what's not to understand it's a comic.

So there's absolutely no difference between Superman and Punisher, or between Batman and Sentry, because it's all just comics.

Yeah, that makes perfect sense [/sarcasm]

You know what kids read.

So the fact that the majority of comic book readers are actually adults have absolutely no impact on the discussion at all.

I find it highly amusing that you continue to show off your vast ignorance of comics in general.

If you all expect me to just roll over because DC makes WW look like a peanuts comic then sure I will.

And obviously you haven't read either, because if you had, then you wouldn't be making that comparison.

Different versions of superman matters not, as they are all superman. Alternate crap is all semantics.

So different powers, and different outlooks on the world in general doesn't make for a different character, as long as the character is called the same.

Yeah, that also makes perfect sense [/sarcasm]

Anyway this was to be for fun.

It's relatively easy to make something for fun, while also being factually correct, rather than just making up stuff because you don't understand the subject at hand.

Another one is this. Magneto can create worm holes - he gets slashed by Logan in Fatal Attractions

What the heck does those two things have to do with each other, creating portals has nothing to do with his reaction speed, which is the reason why he was slashed.

= Logan is bad ass or = Magneto is a weak ass lol

This ABC logic, is not logic, it's a logical fallacy, and quite frankly it's stupid.

[Pseudonym]

This is a silly thread in which no one is happy.

[Dr. Pymp(mex)]

It's not sound logic, but some of you use this to some degree. I just wanted to make this to make fun of the matter.

[silversurfer092]

Fail??? So when did he become real? I can give two shits if he fails or not. I'm the idiot, yet you get butt sore over this hahaha

Child please!!

What does failing have to do with being real? You can, and do, give two shits if he fails. You're the idiot because you get buttsore over people thinking DBZ sucks. Which it does. I'm only buttsore because I just finished taking 5 shits in the span of an hour and a half.

[Dr. Pymp(mex)]

You bring up DbZ slot I haven't even once and I did so making fun of it.

It's a comic thread not a political thread.

Nerd patrol doesnt need to come out and be all nerdy. I'm a nerd and I make fun of this since it's just a comic that children read. I was a child and still love them, but to get all*** about it = need a therapist lol.

Oh and you take way too many shits lol

[Shockwave]

Naruto creates a bunch of clones of himself- Luffy knocking out 50,000 people with his will -Kuma blocking fire with his will = Naruto is unable to beat Luffy

[Dr. Pymp(mex)]

See shockwave has it!! I don't know those characters but we should he able to make fun of this

Aerith and everyone can cast revive - sephiroth sliced and killed Aerith = fail

[sirmethos]

Z-fighters defeated <insert name of powerful enemy>. - The collective Z-fighters are afraid of, or at least nervous around, an angry ChiChi. = ChiChi is the most powerful being in DBZ.

[Dr. Pymp(mex)]

Hahaah that's funny Sirmethos

[Hayesmeister5651]

I'll give it a go. Pymp tries to argue - He never makes sense = ignore pymp

[Dr. Pymp(mex)]

Wow Hayes you are so cool
