Thor vs Superman
-
We got into this discussion at my job.
-
Thor !
Superman is DC.
DC is superlame -
Superman is Superman; hard to beat that alone, but he is still vulnerable. Thor is a god; hard to beat that.
Overall I have to say Thor. A closet Marvel allegiance may sway that somewhat, but I love Batman, so I am not a bigot about it.
The real question: Could Superman lift Mjolnir (Thor’s hammer)?
-
Found this on Wikipedia about other characters who have lifted Mjolnir:
“and the DC Comics characters Superman (though he was unable to later that issue and Thor claimed Odin had briefly lifted the enchantment) and Wonder Woman.”
Interesting; though I naturally believe that Odin must have lifted the enchantment for him to do so.

I’ve lifted Mjolnir at a comicon.
It wasn’t really that impressive.
Then again, my name is Gargantua. If anyone could lift Mjolnir, it’s me. :)

Haha… okay, I concede here.

Superman is about as strong as conceivably possible. Can fly faster than light. Has lasers in his eyes that can melt metal. Can run almost at the speed of light. Superhearing that can hear a conversation on the other side of the planet, so you can’t sneak up on him. Freeze breath. And all the other crazy powers that don’t come into play (X-Ray vision, telescoping vision, etc.). And, he’s really, really smart.
One amusing thing about those old black-and-white Superman serial films from the 1950s (or whenever; I’m not sure of their date) is that there were supposedly episodes in which Superman would land in front of a criminal, who would respond by pulling out a revolver and firing six shots straight into Superman’s chest. Superman would stand there, letting the (imaginary) bullets bounce harmlessly off of his indestructible body. The crook, having fired his last bullet, would then in desperation hurl his empty revolver at the head of Superman, who would duck to let it miss him.

If Thor put kryptonite on his hammer…

Hulk vs Superman?
That’s a lot of Destruction.
-
DC Comics.
-
Marvel vs DC?
Not which one is better.
If all Marvel Characters fought all of DC Characters?
-
well…DC has some forgotten characters that are pretty awesome, and almost everyone knows the Marvel characters.
-
Marvel > DC
-
Yes, Superman can lift Mjolinar. He is as worthy as Cap.

@rjpeters70:
DC has some crazy overpowered characters. […] DC is just incredibly overpowered. If DC heros unleashed themselves, it would be over in under a minute.
I think DC originally stood for Detective Comics. From what you’ve indicated, it sounds like Batman is just about the only DC character these days who does any actual crime-solving detective work.
-
I liked Marvel as a kid (DC too), some of DC grew on me as I got older, and now both are less preferred compared to ones like Image, Dark Horse, Vertigo, etc.
-
Something’s gone really off the rails at DC editorial lately and they didn’t really have as tight a plan as they wanted us to think with The New 52. I blame the Avengers movie.
