The Justice League/Unlimited cartoon from the mid-2000s was the best "on screen" depiction of Superman. He was stronger than everyone else but not by much. Also had the best superman personality too. The Nicest man you'll ever meet. I mean he invited Martian Manhunter to come to his house for Christmas since the Martian was alone for the holidays.(One of my favorite episodes BTW) But don't threaten his friends or innocents, then Mr. Nice Man goes away. Infact the JLU cartoon had some of the best Depictions of DC super heroes and villains period.
In that show he’s by far the physically strongest,and the most durable,however the restrictions on his other powers and abilities in that show keep him from making the rest of the team look like pissants,those are the only two powers that he absolutely trounces the other leaguers in,every other power of the animated superman is only half of what the others can do,but in the comics he makes the other leaguers look like nothing when he starts getting a bit more serious than usual.
King of the gods Yeah... In the JL show, they rrally downgraded him. Too much honestly. In season 1, Hades Pimpslapped him. PIMPSLAPPED HIM! That's just insulting.
@Apple Sauce nah that comic Flash didn’t expect Superman to win so he probably got cocky and slowed down allowing Superman to speed up at he end, it’s also the fact that you take the wrong message from that story
@Apple Sauce oh it’s you, what are you doing just clicking on every single Superman video you can find to shit on him? I’m assuming that the Flash didn’t think Superman would win, any reasonable person would agree and move on but apparently you have a real problem with Superman
So basically Superman holds back way too far that he actually plays around with his opponents but if he really wanted to try he would shattered the world into little bit of pieces. That’s how OP Superman is.
" If you want to test a mans character, give him power" -Abraham Lincoln. A character doesn't need to be not OP to be relatable! Writing about his struggle to do what's right with his power is extremely interesting and relatable.
That's fine that he's a symbol of hope and how he demonstrates that via his seemingly unlimited power, but he's still a character. He still needs challenges to overcome and face. And when you have someone who can run faster than the fastest man alive, contain black holes and reverse time, then he becomes less and less a character and more like a symbol than anything else.
All comic book characters are powerful enough to get through their story arc. Until they die and come back to life. Oh and Superman is supposed to be like Jesus that's his character.
@@christopherwashi There is no one correct reading of the character of Superman,Cultural artifacts like “Superman” can be religiously multivalent in that different interpreters find various kinds of symbols and themes when examining the same aesthetic product. In the context of discussing the religious symbolism both of and in Superman’s origins there is precious little explicit evidence in Action Comics #1. There are no specific scriptural citations or allusions and no obvious thematic parallels with religious or theological traditions to which Siegel and Shuster would have been exposed.
Batman Fanboy: I don't like Superman he's too OP Superman Fanboy: Have you even read any Superman comics? Batman Fanboy: No, Batman's cooler he's more realistic, Superman's lame. Superman Fanboy: Batman's the lame one, Superman would crush him in a fight. Batman Fanboy: No way Batman would win. Superman Fanboy: Wait you think Superman's too OP and yet you think Batman would beat him. Batman Fanboy: Yup Superman Fanboy: How? Batman Fanboy: Because he's Batman Superman Fanboy: ..... Do you understand what Irony is?
jhunt5578 They take pride in Batman beating the strongest because he _could lose_ to any superhero, but will learn how to beat them with strategic plays.
So Batman Fanboys are wrong to call him OP coz he can sneeze and destroy solar systems[Or was it galaxies?]. Also he is lame coz all it needs to bring him down, someone one can sneeze away planets is a small green piece of junk from his own home planet. But yeah he can hold black holes in his hand. Good fake scenario to try and prove Supes is not OP though, good job!!!
My belief and why I like superman is that it's not just about how powerful he is but what he does with that power. He is the exception to the saying power corrupts. It's also probably why injustice became so popular because there's probably more people that want to see him fall. Because it makes him more "human" to falter and become corrupt simply because too many people believe they wouldn't be able to do what he does with the power he has.
Yea man, i mean i get the think he has strong cells and shit and he is much stronger than other humans, but what gives him the ability to fucking fly and have laser eyes??? Man this shit has nothing to do with strong cells man. DC is too kido.
EMMIMATION the Hulk has a reason to why he's never at full power all the time and Goku worked for his power by training and fighting his entire life. You can't fault someone for being strong if they actually worked for it.
Joshua Gained idk Rebirth now, i guess. just a superman that doesn't have a different name, look, backstory or extra powers and who isn't omnipotent. The one that most people would consider to be generally overall regular superman.
Echo Noir the pre crisis superman wad the most op cause he couod do anything . Like timetravel , was able to pull dozens of planets etc but not now cause at that time writers put anything tgey liked now they made him little down
I'm still wondering how he survives punches from Wonder Woman yet being powered by 1 sun and doesn't even seem to atleast use 1% of it that's just plot armor.
Can I just say, If superman is the perfect hero who can sometimes overpower his ONLY weakness then why is he also the perfect villain. If he's so good hearted then him becoming evil should be kind of hilarious. Like watching him struggle and debate wether he should save a certain person. And no wanting to hurt his fellow friends. He shouldn't be perfect at both being good and bad.
Nah, he's weak in the places it matters. His personality,relationships and his ultimate desire to be considered friend to all humans despite being essentially a god in comparison can usually be exploited well enough to be interesting, to be his weaknesses.
@@Himmyjewett Well, the point is he is too OP. And he shouldn't have a justice league if he is too OP. That why they can't make another movie of him or a good video game, because Superman is ridiculous.
That's the point. It's the story of a god trying to live among man. Not a generic anime character trying to fight everyone just for fun. If he was a bad character than he wouldn't have lasted 80 years.

Lazzyworrior 38 yeah he holds back when he's fighting in the city or other heroes. But even when there are no civilians to be seen he still gets his ass beat sometimes. Does he put up a fight? Absolutely. Does he always win no.
Elijah 6303 Exactly! And there are other characters in his same tier Shazam, Black Adam, Darkseid, etc these are characters who can match him in power. Superman has been knocked out before more than once.
Elijah 6303 Because one punch without holding back would obliberate earth? Also Sups is NOT a killer, he prefers peacfull solutions and does whats best for earth.
That's why I think the Injustice Storyline was one of the best things DC could do for Supes. He went from a Boy Scout goody goody, to the greatest villain in the world.
It took everything interesting about him his morals, his humanity, his will and turned him into an evil asshole I’d hardly say it’s “one of the best things”.
No that was far from the best things done to Supes. It's a little Elseworld fanfiction that's been smeared on superman stories and clouded the actual character. Now Superman Rebirth...thats one of the best things done to the character.
Pre Retcon Beyonder He can •Fly •Freeze Breath •Super Speed •Hear Vision •Bullet Proof •Heat Breath(notsure) •EVEN MORE THINGS HE HAS DONE So yeah he totally isn’t overpowered
No they haven’t they just put him against other krypton’s but he easily beat Wonder Woman and aquaman with no effort and Wonder Woman killed arse a god who in his prime slaughtered the entirety of Olympus and Zeus had to use all his power to push him back and weaken him and it gave Zeus little time to live. She should be able to keep up with and hurt superman if she can hurt the god of war, then there’s the justice league Snyder cut superman didn’t show up under the other characters got there ass kicked, you know a character is too powerful when you have to side line for a entire movie just to make it good through the entire justice league movie after superman’s resurrection I was just like this would not be a problem if superman came in. So justice league destroyed itself by making him overpowered only to then realise there mistake side line him until the last second before someone dies only to have him absolutely destroy the bad guy with no effort and then I realised that if superman came straight into the fight the movie would have been shortened by a lot.
😂 He just needs a lil liquor-Then he’ll come strollin in to Lois’s apartment drunk and be like, “Lois, girls are gonna have bigger eyes than yours, and, and, they’ll see through lead too.” He crashes and breaks her tv. He’s embarrassed and melts it with his laser eyes. “Oh crap, Lois, what, what happened to your tv? It’s melted?” She turns on her bedroom light, and he flies the eff out and away as fast as he can. 😂
I don’t see how people say Superman is overpowered because there are so many other characters that can just as easily hold there ground against Superman
LitFantasy don’t get too hopeful,alien x is only nigh omnipotent while superman is as powerful as he needs to be,effectively making him another persona of characters like the one above all.
My problem is with the story about him getting is power from the sun, which is ludicrous. Some of his feats would require more than the total energy output of the sun over its life, much less the tiny amount he's absorbed over his life. You may as well explain his powers as coming from drinking tea--it would make as much sense. I realize that physics don't work the same in comic book worlds, but this is beyond the pale. He either needs to have his power restricted, or they need to change the explanation, because the standard story makes absolutely no fucking sense whatsoever.
@@colinjones8828 well his power isn’t the point of his character, if you define characters by powers then Batman must be the worst superhero ever, Superman is all about how the writers utilize his powers and put him in situations where his morals are tested, read Superman up in the sky by Tom King
Richie Manuta I don’t know much about Superman, wasn’t really a DC fan, mainly grew up reading Marvel, I just know batman can beat him for what ever reasons lol
Hot Java nah Batman has only ever been able to beat him if he has had substantial prep time and superman doesn't have him close to him at the moment. Batman 100% loses if it's a heat of the moment fight and this is coming from some one who likes Batman more
No way!!! Maybe before he was. But then came along the likes of Anti-Monitor, Darkseid, Imperiex, Doomsday, Dr. Manhattan and even Spawn, Sentry and all those crazy overpowered Marvel cosmic entities which totally dwarfed Supes' abilities.
He's Superman, Offcourse he's meant to be super OP. But compared to the circumstances he's normally put to and the villains in general, he's nowhere near OP, in that case then he's actually weak.
His origin is too underwhelming proportional to the powers he possess. Simply moving him from a red star to a yellow shouldn't make the difference between being a mere human and a god. Same goes for other interplanetary characters such as Martian Manhunter, or accidental sources of powers (Hulk, flash....etc)
Its comics duh whatd ya expect ? Anyways if it changes anything , the writers tried to explain his op strengths even for kryptonian standards by revealing that he is actually the last descendant of Rao , who is basically the kryptonian God .its pretty good since he's still far stronger than other kryptonians who have lived and spent time on earth .
He's too OP dude to the fact that no human can match him. Or contain his power. No man made weapon can kill him. And kryptonite is VERY rare and I assume only a few people on the entire world has a small amount. The fact he can match any god or being should just tell you what you need to know.
@@warflame5912 and what's batman going to do to stop from superman throwing him into space. Or slapping his head off. Or knocking up out with a flick to the forehead.
Travis Adams Student Media ok true enough and.............that is the hole in his character. Apparently nothing can stop him and if the writers tried to make something stop him it's ridiculously dumb.
To overpowered, remember when he was killed? Nah jk he is overpowered! He has 3 weakness for god sake?! Plz pin I've been watching since you first few vids!
He has 4 weaknesses kryptonite and magic and red sun and his biggest weakness is holding back so back he can overcome all of these weaknesses so his O.P but DC is trying to underpower him
I'm baffled that I live in a world where people constantly tag on superman as being "over powered" yet praise Wolverine who's entire conceit is that he's indestructible and can kill anything. People don't crap all over superman because of his powers, they crap all over him because he's a good person and that's not "cool".
Superman is so OP that the word Hope doesn't really the same effect it once did 30/40 years ago. I would say he is more of a symbol for being strong than anything else.
@@bluewulv saitama is pretty much an illustration of what it's like to be an overpowered character which is BORING !! I mean just look at the glazed look on his face that he has for like 90 % of every episode that face alone pretty much clarify's that being overpowered is pointless .
Believe that there are so many characters in the universe that he lives in that are so much more overpower than him like they're literally people who could clap their hands and erase the universe if anything I feel like Superman should be a little more overpowered
nah, even batman ackledges the ocassions he won, he did have help and a plan. In addition, superman was always holding back. there are more times superman won than the times batman won and we are talking about the primary universe, not an alternative.
Most superheroes are overpowered. If you look at their power sets logically and compare them to both the villains they fight and the circumstances they find themselves in generally, they really shouldn't have any trouble with either, and the world around them wouldn't function well at all because of their existence
I don’t see how Superman can be overpowered. In the context of the DC Universe with actual Gods as supporting characters, surely he fits right in? Plus, a comic book character should not be credited on their ability or power levels in my opinion, but the core of the character itself and how he uses those abilities, for which Superman is a prime example of great character. I personally used to think of him as boring and too perfect until I actually began to delve into the character about 10 years ago by reading the Superman comics and being surprised by how much the character resonated with me. He quickly became my favourite superhero.
@@muantea2694 well gee with fanboys like high level productions calling superman 11D and multiversal and claiming that superman has no limit he sounds pretty unbeatable doesnt he. Or maybe when he punched death in the face. Aside from his incredibly rare weaknesses that dont even effect him that much he doesnt truly struggle and maybe he is not suppose to but dont expect every to like that kind of story. But of course keep crying about someone's opinion.
Some versions could be considered overpowered but his rogue’s gallery is also really OP and there are multiple people in DC who can and have kicked his ass.
Who else hates when doing somthing about superhero’s but don’t know nothing about the superhero’s then you just want to roast them like when a person watches Wonder Woman the movie then your in the movies then person always like wow I didn’t know that a scream when did this happen am I only like this is every superhero fan like this also
I subconsciously rolled my eyes when he said supes only dropped one sweat benching the Earth's weight like cmon that's ridiculous. I'm sure there's a logical strength for kryptonians. Also even though his ability to speed back in time is insane, it doesn't beat time travel via portals. He could theoretically be stopped during that point... or that's how it goes in my head. The short of it is if supes goes superfast to go back in time to stop someone who can teleport through time, that person can just teleport through time in the future a lot (or once into the past) and encase the world with their varius iterations of their selves. Basically if your first teleport to catch supes fails, you just do it again and again at that same moment, filling the moment full of yourself. The end result is that there is only one actual moment where supes gets caught and there are like thousands of other yous grabbing nothing. This power is a bit hard to explain because in order for it to happen there must be a failed attempt, but since it all happens at once you already see the end result of success as you fail again and again and again in your personal movement through time. But yeah that's what my character has.
The Justice League/Unlimited cartoon from the mid-2000s was the best "on screen" depiction of Superman. He was stronger than everyone else but not by much.

Superman had great parents from 2 planets. He was taught virtue and love. He is what his parents made him. Incarnate.
I mean...... his potential if fucking insane. But he still gets his ass beat, maybe if he stayed in the sun for a good month or two.
Elijah 6303 he holds back bro that’s why he loses often
Lazzyworrior 38 yeah he holds back when he's fighting in the city or other heroes. But even when there are no civilians to be seen he still gets his ass beat sometimes. Does he put up a fight? Absolutely. Does he always win no.
Elijah 6303 Exactly! And there are other characters in his same tier Shazam, Black Adam, Darkseid, etc these are characters who can match him in power. Superman has been knocked out before more than once.
Besides he still has weaknesses, if he didn’t then I totally agree that he is op
Elijah 6303 Because one punch without holding back would obliberate earth?
Also Sups is NOT a killer, he prefers peacfull solutions and does whats best for earth.
Depends on the version but when written well: no.
He faces adversity both physical and mental. He can and has lost fights.
Also kryptonite.
He is but the reason he has such good stories is because his villains are just as powerful
Facts and that he’s interesting because he’s alien
That's why I think the Injustice Storyline was one of the best things DC could do for Supes. He went from a Boy Scout goody goody, to the greatest villain in the world.
It took everything interesting about him his morals, his humanity, his will and turned him into an evil asshole I’d hardly say it’s “one of the best things”.
No that was far from the best things done to Supes. It's a little Elseworld fanfiction that's been smeared on superman stories and clouded the actual character. Now Superman Rebirth...thats one of the best things done to the character.
Yes.
Death_Dealer I agree
Sam Frankel depends on the version
No
No. If you have read Superman vol. 2, you would'nt say that.
Death_Dealer nope,i can name million of charcaters that can beat him
Yes... Clearly..
Hanif Huzairi nope
Hanif Huzairi
Pretty much
This isn't even a debate anymore
Pre Retcon Beyonder He can
•Fly
•Freeze Breath
•Super Speed
•Hear Vision
•Bullet Proof
•Heat Breath(notsure)
•EVEN MORE THINGS HE HAS DONE
So yeah he totally isn’t overpowered
Smile JEM i can name far more charcaters that can do much more
Smile JEM he doesn't have heat breath, lol he only has about 4/5 different powers.
Yeah he’s supposed to be. Writers constantly nerf him
Nobody: thanos: fine I'll do it myself snaps away superman
are you for real?
The gauntlet doesn't work in other universes so that's why he could only snap away people in the universe he was in
It's just a joke geez
@@obiwan8934 Maybe that'll teach you to stop regurgitating tired jokes like another drone.
He is too fast thanos would be dead before he do anything
My favorite hero of all time.
Me too!
Before watching: YES, obviously.
After watching: YES, obviously.
I think the films recently have done a great job with handling his powers.
No they haven’t they just put him against other krypton’s but he easily beat Wonder Woman and aquaman with no effort and Wonder Woman killed arse a god who in his prime slaughtered the entirety of Olympus and Zeus had to use all his power to push him back and weaken him and it gave Zeus little time to live. She should be able to keep up with and hurt superman if she can hurt the god of war, then there’s the justice league Snyder cut superman didn’t show up under the other characters got there ass kicked, you know a character is too powerful when you have to side line for a entire movie just to make it good through the entire justice league movie after superman’s resurrection I was just like this would not be a problem if superman came in. So justice league destroyed itself by making him overpowered only to then realise there mistake side line him until the last second before someone dies only to have him absolutely destroy the bad guy with no effort and then I realised that if superman came straight into the fight the movie would have been shortened by a lot.
History of Black Cat
you read my mind
Who cares about Blach Cat?
And you don't care about spelling
Apparently not if he struggled against Batman 🙄 I still won't ever accept that that was a even real fight lol
i think its supposed to be.."is one punch man overpowered?"😂😂😂
His name is OP man , so is he
Martian Manhunter is more powerful as he can copy Kryptonian DNA and still have his telekinesis and telepathy.
Finally someone understands.
😂 He just needs a lil liquor-Then he’ll come strollin in to Lois’s apartment drunk and be like, “Lois, girls are gonna have bigger eyes than yours, and, and, they’ll see through lead too.” He crashes and breaks her tv. He’s embarrassed and melts it with his laser eyes. “Oh crap, Lois, what, what happened to your tv? It’s melted?” She turns on her bedroom light, and he flies the eff out and away as fast as he can. 😂
I love Superman. He's my 2nd most favourite superhero of all time. After Batman, of course.
@Fumontaindew2012 Your mother is lesbian
@@rarampz7721 batman almost killed superman in justice league.
Watch clip!
@Fumontaindew2012 I’m pretty sure he married a woman and had a son with her but okay
What the come on batman
I don’t see how people say Superman is overpowered because there are so many other characters that can just as easily hold there ground against Superman
Definitely ONE of the most OP characters in comics. He's an ideal. He is whatever you think makes something or someone so "super."
He has over 100 powers. Of coarse he's overpowered.
Creativa Artly but he still gonna lose to alien x
Lol no he doesn't he only has about 4 to 6 powers
Creativa Artly nope not even,he is very less powers by that logic Martian manhunter should be a god
King Merck I'm a hard-core superman fan, He doesn't only have 4-6 he has about 10 main powers
tori ko not Superman prime 😂😂😂
The title should’ve been “Is Superman too Overrated?” but I still enjoyed this video :)
Chris Gomes He's underrated
Superman is actually underrated during the last decade and now.
Two words : BEN 10
LitFantasy don’t get too hopeful,alien x is only nigh omnipotent while superman is as powerful as he needs to be,effectively making him another persona of characters like the one above all.
King of the gods wtf? Are you stupid? Alien x would just whipe him out of the Extinction lol.
If Batman can beat him, if Hulk can beat him, if Doomsday can kill him, if Darkseid can make him his bitch, then he is not overpowered
Though i hate how in JLU Superman is able to solo Darkseid and easily able beat Captain Atom.
cerral playsroblox in real life Superman will lose to Darkseid but at least he would beat Batman
If Superman would have been a villain, then it would be a better idea than showing him as a superhero
My problem is with the story about him getting is power from the sun, which is ludicrous. Some of his feats would require more than the total energy output of the sun over its life, much less the tiny amount he's absorbed over his life. You may as well explain his powers as coming from drinking tea--it would make as much sense. I realize that physics don't work the same in comic book worlds, but this is beyond the pale. He either needs to have his power restricted, or they need to change the explanation, because the standard story makes absolutely no fucking sense whatsoever.
Okay okay what about fucking batshit with a plot armor that conquer the entire universe while still being a normal human, make sense huh? L
He HAS to be overpowered. If he wasn't as powerful as he is, he'd just be "Man"
So true, he's supposed to be all-powerful a God that walks among men to use his powers for the greater good which is the defining trait of a hero! 🙂
It's what makes him boring to me though cause alot of other heroes dont seem overpowered like he is
@@colinjones8828 well his power isn’t the point of his character, if you define characters by powers then Batman must be the worst superhero ever, Superman is all about how the writers utilize his powers and put him in situations where his morals are tested, read Superman up in the sky by Tom King
@@hasthehighground8560 Everyone agrees that Batman is a meme character and it's funny. On paper he's just a man. Anyone can kill him.
@@PermanentHigh that’s not a meme character
Apparently not since a mortal named Batman can beat him
Hot Java Not that he's unbeatable but that he has too many powers.
Richie Manuta I don’t know much about Superman, wasn’t really a DC fan, mainly grew up reading Marvel, I just know batman can beat him for what ever reasons lol
Hot Java okay
Hot Java nah Batman has only ever been able to beat him if he has had substantial prep time and superman doesn't have him close to him at the moment. Batman 100% loses if it's a heat of the moment fight and this is coming from some one who likes Batman more
Hot Java not batman it's called kryptonite but batman has more ideas and is SUPER smart
No way!!! Maybe before he was. But then came along the likes of Anti-Monitor, Darkseid, Imperiex, Doomsday, Dr. Manhattan and even Spawn, Sentry and all those crazy overpowered Marvel cosmic entities which totally dwarfed Supes' abilities.
Superman is overpowered, yet they always seem to nerf him when fighting certain characters, leading him to lose the battle, which makes no sense.
He's Superman, Offcourse he's meant to be super OP. But compared to the circumstances he's normally put to and the villains in general, he's nowhere near OP, in that case then he's actually weak.
He's not supposed to be though. He's not a god. He's just a man who gets powers from the sun
If you're going to name a character "super" man, he has to be overpowered
No offense but that has to be the dumbest logic I've ever seen
He's super, not godman. Super doesn't mean limitless
His origin is too underwhelming proportional to the powers he possess. Simply moving him from a red star to a yellow shouldn't make the difference between being a mere human and a god. Same goes for other interplanetary characters such as Martian Manhunter, or accidental sources of powers (Hulk, flash....etc)
Probably because his back story was made in 1938
I think that since he’s basically Jesus as a superhero that they should make him an extension of the presence.
Its comics duh whatd ya expect ?
Anyways if it changes anything , the writers tried to explain his op strengths even for kryptonian standards by revealing that he is actually the last descendant of Rao , who is basically the kryptonian God .its pretty good since he's still far stronger than other kryptonians who have lived and spent time on earth .
True espically for Flash gets strikes by lightning once and he becomes a god
The observation about Superman being the embodiment of hope, and therefore limitless was a great philosophical observation.
DC just has the most OP characters. Wonder Woman, Superman, Jon Jonz, Aquaman, Swampthing, the list can go on.
Captain Atom (Created a universe),Shazam,GLC Characters,Someone continue the list
He's too OP dude to the fact that no human can match him. Or contain his power. No man made weapon can kill him. And kryptonite is VERY rare and I assume only a few people on the entire world has a small amount. The fact he can match any god or being should just tell you what you need to know.
I mean batman spear made out of kryptonite sooo....
@@warflame5912 and what's batman going to do to stop from superman throwing him into space. Or slapping his head off. Or knocking up out with a flick to the forehead.
@@ivanstayner8818 you said no man made weapon COULD kill him I never said batman would OR could kill him but the weapon can kill him
"let's start with some facts about his powers and abilities" facts huh? This ought to be rich
Haha frt
.... that's the point... he supposed to not have limits
Travis Adams Student Media ok true enough and.............that is the hole in his character. Apparently nothing can stop him and if the writers tried to make something stop him it's ridiculously dumb.
Marvel's the Sentry is a perfect example of too much power. Superman isn't there yet.
He might as well be the presence
Bench pressing the 🌎🏋💪👈🖐 days
To overpowered, remember when he was killed? Nah jk he is overpowered! He has 3 weakness for god sake?!
Plz pin I've been watching since you first few vids!
3: kryptonite, magic and red suns
I love SPORTS magic can kill him the red sun weaks him and diffrent kyriptonites from the color wheel
Jota_95 Many types of kryptonite. The strongest is the gold kryptonite which can permanently depower him
He has 4 weaknesses kryptonite and magic and red sun and his biggest weakness is holding back so back he can overcome all of these weaknesses so his O.P but DC is trying to underpower him
Sun dip
Truth, justice and the American way!!
Lazy yea ok pal take a look around the world its as close as it gets.
I'm baffled that I live in a world where people constantly tag on superman as being "over powered" yet praise Wolverine who's entire conceit is that he's indestructible and can kill anything.
People don't crap all over superman because of his powers, they crap all over him because he's a good person and that's not "cool".
Superman is so OP that the word Hope doesn't really the same effect it once did 30/40 years ago. I would say he is more of a symbol for being strong than anything else.
Yh of course he his that's his character 😂😂
SNGaming thats the dumbest excuse ive ever heard for bad writing.
He has more classic stories than most other Superheroes.
@OffsetAirplane People don't complain about Saitama
@@bluewulv Because most anime fans don't care about realism unlike comics fans
@@bluewulv saitama is pretty much an illustration of what it's like to be an overpowered character which is BORING !! I mean just look at the glazed look on his face that he has for like 90 % of every episode that face alone pretty much clarify's that being overpowered is pointless .
One punch man - is the strongest hero - End of discussion!
Unknown Forever And so I have found a brother among the countless public.
Unknown Forever LOL no.
Unknown Forever in your dreams
lol bo
no lol
yes! he lifted a book with infinite pages. HE LITERALLY LIFTED INFINITY!
The book was stated to only contain every book that can possibly exist. It was just named that.
Lazy I dont think any computer in existance could carry that much data.
Also isnt data technically made of electrons or something?
Yeah and those are just asspull stories
The flash could beat him, the flash could phase through Superman’s chest and kill him.
Believe that there are so many characters in the universe that he lives in that are so much more overpower than him like they're literally people who could clap their hands and erase the universe if anything I feel like Superman should be a little more overpowered
Yes ofc he is!
No
Give me prep time and I will be overpowered
I am Batman lol
I am Batman it batman OMG😱
I am Batman Why because Im Batman
I am Batman give superman perp time to he would fuck u up
nah, even batman ackledges the ocassions he won, he did have help and a plan. In addition, superman was always holding back. there are more times superman won than the times batman won and we are talking about the primary universe, not an alternative.
He's no to overpowered just keeps getting plot point abilities added to compete with much stronger characters
Cry dbs fanboy
Is the sky blue, do bears shit in the woods? we have another question to add to the list.
Most superheroes are overpowered. If you look at their power sets logically and compare them to both the villains they fight and the circumstances they find themselves in generally, they really shouldn't have any trouble with either, and the world around them wouldn't function well at all because of their existence
I don’t see how Superman can be overpowered. In the context of the DC Universe with actual Gods as supporting characters, surely he fits right in? Plus, a comic book character should not be credited on their ability or power levels in my opinion, but the core of the character itself and how he uses those abilities, for which Superman is a prime example of great character. I personally used to think of him as boring and too perfect until I actually began to delve into the character about 10 years ago by reading the Superman comics and being surprised by how much the character resonated with me. He quickly became my favourite superhero.
TehWeasel87 even after reading his stories I still hate him. I simply dont like unbeatable characters.

@@muantea2694 well gee with fanboys like high level productions calling superman 11D and multiversal and claiming that superman has no limit he sounds pretty unbeatable doesnt he. Or maybe when he punched death in the face. Aside from his incredibly rare weaknesses that dont even effect him that much he doesnt truly struggle and maybe he is not suppose to but dont expect every to like that kind of story. But of course keep crying about someone's opinion.
I use to think yes but with the kryptonite and the lack of control over his emotions and thinking lack of no. Batman forever!!!
Ethan Aleman now, Batman is overpowered.
we don’t talk about that movie.
wonderwoman can kill superman because he cut hes finger touching wonderwomen sword.Wonderwomens sword can cut elekrons from atoms
Ssgss5 Vegetto yes, finally someone who uses abilities and tactics other than pure power.
imagine all the Kryptonians inside him.
Some versions could be considered overpowered but his rogue’s gallery is also really OP and there are multiple people in DC who can and have kicked his ass.
Popeye is more powerful than Superman.
Who else hates when doing somthing about superhero’s but don’t know nothing about the superhero’s then you just want to roast them like when a person watches Wonder Woman the movie then your in the movies then person always like wow I didn’t know that a scream when did this happen am I only like this is every superhero fan like this also
"I personally don't think Superman is overpowered"
Me: 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😂. No wait! You're serious? 😲
He has to be. That’s why he’s Superman!
Nice job getting on the trending page!
Did you know that alien x can beat superman so easily
Taha Hagar yes he can
tori ko proof?
tori ko seththeprogrammer debunked that entire video
tori ko if those whiny talking heads is alien x's head decide that this is a good idea
Lol yes
“Is Superman an overpowered character?”
No, he is simply the most nerfed character in comic book history
Do you mean buffed? Nerfed is when a character becomes weaker.
And he still overpowered after all
Unfortunately, we can't even talk about Superman in peace anymore without the a wave of dbz salt coming our way.
I subconsciously rolled my eyes when he said supes only dropped one sweat benching the Earth's weight like cmon that's ridiculous. I'm sure there's a logical strength for kryptonians.
Also even though his ability to speed back in time is insane, it doesn't beat time travel via portals. He could theoretically be stopped during that point... or that's how it goes in my head. The short of it is if supes goes superfast to go back in time to stop someone who can teleport through time, that person can just teleport through time in the future a lot (or once into the past) and encase the world with their varius iterations of their selves.
Basically if your first teleport to catch supes fails, you just do it again and again at that same moment, filling the moment full of yourself. The end result is that there is only one actual moment where supes gets caught and there are like thousands of other yous grabbing nothing.
This power is a bit hard to explain because in order for it to happen there must be a failed attempt, but since it all happens at once you already see the end result of success as you fail again and again and again in your personal movement through time.
But yeah that's what my character has.
If he's that strong, one punch should of killed Batman
