Reply Subj: Superman vs Thor: Comparison
Posted: Tue Jan 31, 2017 at 11:03:50 pm EST (Viewed 1274 times)

Recently its a quite a raging debate whether JLA/Avengers is the only comparison between these two and I thought I should put all of the other meetings or comparison between Superman and Thor here.

Unlimited Access 3:

JLA is fighting Avengers, so Access brings one hero who can fix all of that mess. Its electric Superman of course.

Superman/Fantastic Four:

Reed Richards says that Superman is perhaps the most powerful hero on both earths and Thor is explicitly name dropped by Franklin Richards as well.

There are other indirect comparisons as well but I think that puts Superman ahead of Thor in their encounters by quite a bit.

Thoughts?

In a major Marvel vs DC crossover, the fans decided:

Superman beat Hulk

In a major Marvel vs DC crossover, a well known writer, backed by both DC and Marvel editorial decided:

Superman beat Thor

Both fights were clean. Now some people will say 'this version of Thor, or that version of Hulk'

The important thing, is that concepts rarely change. Captain Marvel will always be a good fight for Superman, Hulk vs Thing will always show Hulk more powerful, even if Thing can lift 6 tons or over 100 tons.

Added to this is that they also showed that Cyborg Superman was overwhelming Surfer. No red sun weakness exploitation, no kryptonite tricks, just Surfer being overwhelmed.

I will concede that Surfer and Terrax have been shown more powerful than Green Lantern. Again, this is conceptually and I would say a Herald of Galactus can beat a Green Lantern.

Superman can beat Darkseid, could Thor beat Thanos? No.

The crossovers should be commended for showing clean wins. Are thy going to show Superman beating Thor repeatedly? No, why would they want to humiliate Thor fans like that? They showed one offs and they showed Superman winning.
