Why are Superman knock offs so damn OP?
This dude stopped the moon with 5 fingers.
>>82564367
Because Superman is OP.

>>82564367
did irredeemable ever reach a resolution or did waid get bored and stop writing it or what
>>82564367
Because Superman is the ultimate icon of power in western media. If you want to create a parody of him you're going to create something even more op.
>>82564367
>Not posting what he does after.
One of the best scenes in the book to be quite honest family.
>>82564367
>>82564394
6 fingers actually
Superman's strength varies between writers.
The same applies to generic Superman knock-offs.
It's called dramatic effect, son. You should look into it sometime.

OC Superman Donut Steels for original stories and settings can be as OP as they want.
Superman has to share a universe with other heroes and so has to be reigned in lest he trivialize every big crossover event.
So All-Star Superman is free to be close to his Silver Age '60s planet-chucking self, and Red Son and Kingdom Come Superman are free to tank nukes and trivialize (almost) anything that gets in their way.
But the mainstay one? He's subject to the whims of editorial.

yeah
qubit beats the plutonian even after he got the biggest power boost ever through clever word play and a system of portals

i looked it up on viewcomic
apparently waid's IM MAD AT THE INTERNET superman expy transcends spacetime and becomes the inspiration for superman
what a fucking twat
>>82565053
the problem with having superman work out on machines where he bench presses the weight of earth isn't that superman is OP, it's that the machines are.
why aren't we using these machines that can output force equal to the entire weight of the earth for anything other than superman's weight training

>pirating comics
>not buying comics to support the industry
You don't belong here.
>>82565393
>supporting the industry
hahahahahahahaha
>>82564505
he was just letting the rest of the league feel useful, if he was alone he would have done it without their help because Superman never lets people down
Because the guy already is OP as fuck
How does Superman fly?
Does he propel himself by farting?
>>82566147
bioelectric field
>>82566438That's stupid and wouldn't work.
>>82566595
push off from the earth
m1v1-T=m2v2
basic physics, 3rd law of motion
>>82564367
>Because superman is a pussy and my character is way better than him.
>>82566645
That isn't electromagnetism, bruh.
>>82566147
He doesn't move, he makes the rest of the universe move with his willpower
>>82566147
You know, it would ruin the awe that Superman projects if a long, unending fart sound effect accompanied him whenever her flew.
Try to imagine BvS, but what Superman farting all the time.
Why is Mr. Majestic the best off brand Superman?
>>82565053
I assume the machine somehow works against itself. So nobody but somebody with super strength could bring these levels out
>>82566147
He flexes his Floatorials. Fact.
>>82565053
This position looks like an overhead press rather than a bench press.
>>82565393
Fuck off waid, I wouldn't support your shitty ass comic if you paid me.
