Ever since Superman stepped onto the scene it seems as though gurus and fanboys have been at each others throats about which superhero is the most powerful. Don’t believe us? Just scroll down to the comments (if there aren’t any it only means they were so bad that we were forced to moderate them). And if you’re one of the fanboys, remember – breathe. At any rate, here are the 25 most powerful superheroes of all time.
Half-human and half-atlantean, Namor the sub-mariner was one of the earliest superheroes in the Marvel universe. The stereotypical antihero, his short fuse and long list of superpowers would make him a formidable foe.Whenever he utters the phrase “shazam”, young Billy Batson becomes one of the universe’s most versatile superheroes. His list of powers include the wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Atlas, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles, and the speed of Mercury. Known as “Earth’s mightiest mortal” Captain Marvel is a force to be reckoned with.Unlike other superheroes Firestorm is actually two people that when combined create a superbeing with the ability to rearrange matter on the molecular level. If it weren’t for the fact that he were limited to non-organic material he would probably be a lot closer to #1.Although Iron Man has had his weak moments, his armor has proven itself worthy against the likes of Thor, Hulk, and other superheroes on this list. Also, given that he is constantly evolving we wouldn’t be surprised to see him continue crawling up the power charts.Another Atlantean, Aquaman’s powers have at times been underestimated. Anyone that was born in a place capable of literally crushing even the most advanced of human technology is probably going to end up somewhere on this page.When it comes to pure, raw, unadulterated power there are few people that come even close to the doctor. In fact, there is almost no defined limit to what he can do. The reason he is at #20 however, is due to his primary weakness (besides tachyons) – apathy. In spite of being able to annihilate essentially the entire universe he just doesn’t care enough about much of anything and would prefer to be left alone.As one of the most powerful telepaths in the universe, Jean Grey sometimes has trouble keeping her nearly unlimited mental powers in check. Professor X was even forced to construct psychic shields in her mind as a child in order to prevent her from fully realizing her power until she was mature enough to handle it on her own.Essentially a combination of Superman and the Silver Surfer, Captain Atom is sometimes seen as a second rate man-of-steel. His powers are formidable, however, with the ability to manipulate theoretically unlimited amounts of energy.Although Wolverine doesn’t have any of the typical superhero powers, it’s the intangibles that put him on the list. What he lacks in raw power he makes up for with pure fury. And as we’ve seen with Dr. Manhattan, attitude is half the battle.As one of the most powerful superheroes in the Wildstorm universe, Mister Majestic bears a deliberate resemblance to Superman. With essentially all of his powers we just couldn’t rank a copy above the man himself.As the most powerful telepath in the Universe Professor X has not only been responsible for the training of many other powerful mutants, but for their protection as well.Essentially a combination of Superman’s power and Batman’s fighting skills, the one think keeping Wonder Woman from ranking any higher is her lack of perfect invulnerability. Granted, she can certainly withstand more than her share of blunt force trauma, but a really sharp weapon could do some damage.Mercilessly executed by his own men, Al Simmons was once the government’s top soldier and most effective assassin. While in hell he made a deal with the Devil that would grant him the ability to do virtually anything that he wanted. The catch? His powers would eventually run out and drag him back to the pit from whence he came.With nearly unlimited strength, rapid tissue regeneration powers, and inexhaustible stamina, fighting against the Hulk is just an all-around bad idea. The main reason he doesn’t rank any higher though is due to his lack of other superpowers. While he outranks almost everyone in strength, pure muscle can sometimes only take you so far.Second only to Dr. Manhattan in terms of sheer ability, the Manhunter owns a laundry list of supermanish superpowers. It doesn’t stop there though. He also has 9 different senses, powerful telepathic skills, and the ability to regenerate himself.1 2
“Shaktiman” is The Most Powerful Superhero on Earth. He is All In One….
No One Can Beat Him It Is My Challenge…
Their can not be a top 10 without Pitt did we forget he beat the green off the hulk
OMG!! this is the shittiest list ive ever saw! Thor at #1, people pleseeee…. Dr manhattan or superman or even Hulk for that matter cld kick his ass any day.
i really dnt mind goku being in the list. that guy is kinda really powerful.
And all those superman can kill the rest of the guys is jsusst dumb. he wldnt last with Dr Manhattan or silver surfer for 5 seconds. Supes is powered by the sun, so he really shldnt mess with guys who can destroy the sun without breaking a sweat
but the part that really ticks me off is they forgot the batman!!! I mean.. that guy more dangerous and has more brainpower than any one else in the and given the time could bring down most of them. he should definitely be in top 5
GOKU or Manhattan… Goku has power to annihilate worlds even in his basic form, and so does manhattan. Manhattan is pure energy, he cannot be destroyed. He is stronger than other world top leaders. Why Thor?
thats a bad list.where is cythonna and scarlet witch?
You are right “JOHNNY BLAZE”. The only counterargument is probably that Ghost Rider really doesn’t belong in the Marvel Universe. And yeah, he does not seem to fit. I would not go so far to say he is silly, but the character is over the top (even for superheroes). And I do not like the fact that Marvel recognize “a god”, even though it was some time ago. A pantheon of mystical creators are much more fantastic and interesting imo.
Yes, you are correct integrating God with comics is wrong. However, because it has been already done it is fair to say that no one. I repeat no one is going to kill a creature or a weapon of God. The Ghost Riders are weapons from and by God.
And from the words from “Heavens on Fire”
“Only God can create a Ghost Rider, and only God can destroy one”.
That being said no other Superhero/Villain can destroy Ghost Rider. GR can be beaten, but he will rise up again and and again because he is immortal.
Superman can’t drop him on the Sun and fly away, because GR will materialize back on Earth, Hell or Heaven.
In the conclusion of Heavens on Fire, Blaze wanted to rid himself of GR, God said no he still has plans for him. That said no way does GR get dropped off anyplace. GR has an Angel looking out for him.
Again, I repeat by Marvel adding this sorts of Ghost Rider out of place in the Marvel universe.
Ghost rider can be constrained, and shattered to pieces if caught, also prone to drowning if taken deep sea. he only has slightly varied powers, i.e. Durability
Fire Resistance
Healing Factor
Heat Resistance
Magic Resistance
Psionic Powers
Pyrokinesis
Stamina
Super Strength
Weapon-based Powers
You have no idea what you are talking about. If Ghost Rider was shattered to pieces as you stated he would reform. He has his head blown off[shattered to pieces] and it was reformed in seconds. The same as his legs and arms. The Ghost Rider is a Spirit by God and from God. Only God can create a Ghost Rider and only God can destroy one.
I don’t know what you are reading, but it isn’t the present day Ghost Rider which has killed the # 1 villain of all time Lucifer. No other Marvel or DC hero/villain can claim that they killed the one and only Devil and I am NOT talking about Mephisto who lied and said he created Ghost Rider.
I know some people are going to whine, but the most powerful hero has got to be Ghost Rider!
Marvel Comic’s did the unthinkable when they had a series called “Heavens on Fire”. Within this series and other Ghost Rider comics it was revealed that Mephisto was NOT the creator of Ghost Rider NOR was it Lucifer as the GR movies portrayed. Ghost Rider or the Ghost Riders were created by the one and only God.
The Ghost Riders were God’s weapon and as God’s weapon cannot die. Repeat Ghost Rider can’t die other than by God himself. Which means Superman Prime can’t kill a creature of God.
In addition, Ghost Rider killed Lucifer. Of course when he died he went back to Hell. Technically, Lucifer has got to be the top villain of all time.
I know alot of you atheisists will whine about having God in the comics, but this was done by the writers of Marvel.
And for the record even Thor god of Thunder recognizes God, I don’t remember the issue but sometimes Marvel will introduce God or the concept of God in their comics.
It is all hypothetical when construction this kind of ranking. So it is really very hard to determine ranking. For example, “All of Superman’s powers and abilities continually grow stronger because he essentially is a solar battery.”. What then if Thor teleports Superman to a place within our universe, or a completely different universe, where there is no yellow sun. What if Doctor Strange creates a imaginary world inside some superhero mind, making them essentiall unable to do anything. What if Charles Xavier uses cerebro and kills anyone he wants. etc etc
This is a list of the most powerful superheroes (Phonix is not a superhero). The argument for Superman Prime could be done for any character (they all have their ultimate version), Rune King Thor having hanged himself to attain knowledge – is close to almighty. And someone mentioned Thor powers originating from his Hammer (his power originates from himself, the Odinforce, the Thorforce and Gaia) – the hammer has abilities of its own but really just focus the powers of Thor. Also Hulk is probably the strongest (given enough time) in the Marvel camp, but not the most powerful.
I’m not as adept in comics as most of you here but I absolutely love everything about the whole superhero ethos and the insanely diverse characters. That said, I think Superman at 3 is just so ridiculous. Goku doesn’t even belong on the list IMO and Spawn ? I think Wonder Woman is too high mainly because of her vulnerability to bladed weapons and where the heck is Batman ? I know Thor is very powerful and I do like him but I think Supes tops him for a simple reason. Superman’s powers do not come from a hammer, or belt, ring, or any gadgets. I commonly hear people say Hulk’s strength is limitless, the madder he gets the stronger he gets. That’s only one ability, strength. All of Superman’s powers and abilities continually grow stronger because he essentially is a solar battery. The longer he is exposed to the yellow sun the stronger all of his abilities get. I think another aspect that gets overlooked in these superhero rankings is who they’ve faced. Anyway that’s my 2 cents worth.
TOP 2 SHOULD BE —>>>
1. DC – SUPERMAN. faster than the speed of light. on ground and in air. Doesnt need to breath, wont drown, and hes too fast for you.TRY GETTING KRYPTONITE NEAR HIM. HES GROWN IMMUNE TO IT THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. HE WONT EVER SHOW YOU HIS FULL POTENTIAL POWERS BECAUSE HE DOESNT NEED TO.
2. MARVEL- PHOENIX- NO NOT JEAN GREY, PHOENIX!! MORE POWERUL THAN ANYONE BUT NEEDS A BODY TO ARISE. SUPERMAN WOULD BEAT HER BECAUSE HER BODY WOULD EVENTUALLY DRAIN. BUT PHOENIX IS IMMORTAL AND WOULD RISE FROM THE ASHES TO COME BACK FOR MORE.
HULK, FLASH, BATMAN, PROFESSOR X, ANYONE WHO CANNOT BREATH IN SPACE AND CANNOT FLY SHOULDNT EVEN BE CONSIDERED.

This can’t even be true at all, not even super man can fly. Only in certain editions, his power is granted by the higher gravitational forces from his orginal planet. In actuallity over time he gets weaker by adapting to our planet. He is just able to jump a seemingly unlimited rate, and obviously can take one step and run faster then anyone on the planet.
You just proved yourself wrong, Superman can only take so much too. Ever read about the battle between him and Doomsday? Doomsday whooped him. Sure Pheonix’s body wold drain out, but she would return, as you said, for more. Superman barely lasted 30 minutes in a battle with doomsday, who didn’t even try to beat him. Pheonix can also heat up to the heat of the sun, superman can’t survive the heat of the sun. All in all Pheonix should be ahead of Superman “The man of steel”.
superman can survive the heat of the sun wen he became superman prime he slept in the sun
how could thor be at the top of the list? my top 10 would have hulk superman batman wolverine phoenix rogue thor spiderman hugo strange and iron man. thor would definitely not be be at the top. i mean, hulk beats thor down with hardly any problems and superman is x100 stronger than a god when he becomes superman prime
Shouldn’t Spectre and Phantom Stranger be ranked above all of these heros? I thought they are like the only two that can directly go up against some of the most powerful villians?
Are you guys forgetting the most powerful being in all comics? The One Above All. You talk of Goku, Superman, SilverSurfer, and many more as powerful but the One Above All has more power than all of them combined. The One Above All created everything in the Multiverse and beyond. The One Above All cannot be beat. The One-Above-All is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient and Omniversal, infinitely above all cosmic powers and abstract entities, even the Living Tribunal. The One Above All’s abilities go beyond any known system of abilities. The One Above All’s strength is beyond any known system of strength. The One Above All has no weaknesses. We all know who is the most powerful and it isn’t Superman or Goku. It is The One Above All.
Ehm… I don’t know about the Living Tribunal, but TOAA is not a superhero and he has also been deleted. This is a list of the top 25 most powerful superheroes, not the most powerful beings. And I would say this list really is quite accurate from what I personally think, but not completly.
Isnt the Spectre up beyond Superman and Thor? I thought he and Phantom Stranger are some of the only heros that can come directly up against some of the most powerful villians like Anti Monitor?
If Iron Man is in that list, Batman will be too !!! And I think the 10 most powerfull superhero is:
1) The Silver Surfer
2) Dr. Manhattan
3) The Android Amazo
4) Thor
5) Superman
6) Supergirl/Superboy/Superwoman/…
7) Flash
8) Black Bolt
9) Captain Atom/Captain Marvel
10) Dr. Strange
Not a bad list.. Sorry wouldn’t include Goku. I think Supes should be number because he never fights at full strength.. Always holds back. Magic is a weakness that still finds a way to get around. Captain Marvel is way too low..should be in the top ten.
I think you have a good list here but it could have more and the order of the heroes needs to be rethought.
My personal top three would be
1. Manhattan
2. Superman
3. Goku
Shakthiman must be on #1
This list is bogus…. Why is Hulk at number 12? Hulk power is uncapped… the madder he gets, the stronger he gets. Why isn’t Galactus on this list? You got Silver Surfer at 4 but Galactus is not stronger than him his creator. That’s like making a human stronger that God.
No, Hulks strength is “uncapped”. This is a list of the most “powerful”.
Galactus is not a “superhero”.
Just why isnt Thanos on that list? Protege, Magneto, Superboy prime, etc….
None of those expect for Superboy is a superhero. But superboy is just silly.
batman has beaten superman by possesing the last piece of kryptonite. granted he has no super powers other than un matched intelligence, unmatched fighting and probably the smartest being in the universe. if you can beat superman with no powers, then you can beat anyone. he finds a way. he always finds a way. batman should be tied with superman at number one, even though batman beat him, i love superman.
Batman is smarter than iron man?
To add sorry, Superman is weak to magic which both Thor, Doctor Strange, Doctor Fate, and Captain Marvel wield at will. Also Zatanna. So Supes cannot top the list, though he is one of my faves and would def be on my team for mighty team ups.
Yes, and while most of those characters couldn’t stand up to doomsday. Not to mention Supes fought Kryptonite Man. and survived Imperix’s onslaught..I think supes should be first..No way Thor, Goku, or anyone but supes could stand up to Doomsday..Well maybe dead pool xD
Though some of you make valid points, we have to remember these are all conjured up in someones mind. Yes Dr. Manhattan is all powerful, but is still a human accident as well as the Hulk. So yes power and strength wise Dr. Manhattan, and the Hulk would top the list. Then we get to the present states of Supes, Thor, and SS. Supes now Superman Prime, Thor now endowed with the Odinforce, and SS being enhanced beyond the power cosmic are all omnipotent and could blink everyone else’s powers away. So they are 1 2 and 3 in any order, it would go to preference. But then all the spawn of jean and cyclops are uber mutants, and super powerful they can pretty much do the same as Thor, Supes, and Silver Surfer, and are without enhancements. Now to who should be on the list. Well first Rogue has to be on the list post syphoned Ms. Marvel powers, as she could just suck the others powers away if she wants. Wolverine should not be on the list. Yes he is basically invulnerable, but his hits would not effect most on the list. Ms. Marvel should also be placed on the list as she is just as powerful as Wonder Woman, and at some level that of pre-primed Supes if you look at the scope of things. You can say everyone is compared to Supes, but the only reason being is that he was the first truly looked at as a superhero. But if you take away his laser beams, and x-ray vision his powers were no different than that of Hercules. Thor is based off a Norse God that was in mythology before there were comics, so Supes would be a ripoff of him before its the other way around. Take away the enhancements, and Sentry would top the list as he would be Supes, and Thor combined. Adam Warlock is Super powerful, but he isn’t a super hero thats why he doesn’t make the list. Batman would strategize how to stop all eventually, but most in reality would take him out before he had a chance. The whole Supes, Silver Surfer, Hercules, and Hulk would beat Thor is outrageous. Thor always holds back because he doesn’t wish to permanently harm anyone he feels has good in their heart. He would crush all if he didn’t hold back. So I don’t argue with Thor’s placement. Sorry to ramble. P.S. If Thor and Silver Surfer are there, I see no reason not to have Beta Ray Bill, Gladiator, Nova, and Quasar.
Hi!!
I agree with some of your points. However, Superman definitely should be no.1 because I have some classic comics where supes handily defeated the Hulk and beat Thor to a pulp and took his hammer from him. I’m just sayin……. Supes hands down!
Goku is the strongest superhero ever he has no weaknesses hulk or superman in second even batman tho he has no superpowers he has even beaten superman and is smart enough to figure out any enemies weakness there’s nothing he can do to beat goku
Sir, all I can say is that, your a moron! I can’t believe that people are trying to compare Goku to the classic comic book superheroes. Even if you did count him in the circle you would have to count him at his strongest in order to come close to beating Superman and if you do that, you also have to look at Superman at his strongest. As others have pointed out, Superman becomes so powerful in the future that he has no weakness YES THIS MEANS THAT KRYTONITE NO LONGER CAN HURT HIM! Also it no longer matters what color the sun is and you know the strange thing, our Sun is not yellow in color, but White!
You might want to do some research on both Superman and Goku. At his weakest point in the series Goku was strong enough to destroy a planet with one shot. That’s at birth. He was sent to Earth just for that purpose. Vegeta used to go around just destroying planets for fun. Piccolo destroyed the moon with one shot while one Earth with even focusing. At his current level he is omnipotent since merging with the dragonballs. That all powerful, immortal and doesn’t age after reaching adulthood. Superman in the future has been written and re-written multiple times. In some story lines he ages in some he doesn’t. That’s not to say that he isn’t as or more powerful than Goku in the far future depending on the writer. However, during the present time line he is well outclassed until he becomes Superman One-Million Prime. Truthfully, the two of them can’t even fight at full power now without destroying the Multiverse. They both limit how much power the put out to make sure to protect life.
Idiot
Batman lost to robin and not a single time so your argument is invaild, And im not talking bout training, it was real battel. Also i wouldve like too se how batman would beat alpha the most powerfull superhero in marvel universe who’s powere is absolute and he have almost no weakness except one, and only Peter Parker knows how to beat alpha, however batman is a kid compared to Peter Parker’s intelegent.
totally agree with you sir !
what happened to the tribunal? and The One Above All… this post lacks insight.
They aren’t heroes they are neutral.. The post actually says that.
In my opinion Goku is strongest than Thor, Goku can Destroy planets efortless.
On the other hand, we also have Hulk, who killed Thor (Although Amora rescued him from death) in movie “Hulk vs Thor”.
I agree with kaka Ben 10 has Alien X who has no weaknesses and can do anything and I mean he wants. The only issue is to use his power Ben must make 2 other minds agree with him which isn’t easy but While their agreeing on a decision the person fighting Alien X would only be able to knock him down because he is completely invincible to all attacks. Even Goku and Superman fighting Alien X together would only be able to dust of his shoulders with their punches. When a decision is finally made Alien X could wipe those 2 out of existence and nobody would ever know.
I think since Goku can be included in this list then Alien X should be too. My point is made and you can’t say anything to prove that anyone is better because once again Alien X is invulnerable to all attacks.
Stupidest list ever
goku is 2nd?! he isn’t a hero! plus, any ninja from naruto world, or arucard, or dante(from dmc anime) can beat goku’s ass so bad…
Lol are you stupid? nobody you just listed is touching goku
Ok, there is no doubt about it. Top 3 are: Goku, Superman, Manhattan. No one can disagree with that. I dont know who to choose between those three. Its debatable……….. The other superheroes are weaklings compared to them…… With the new DBZ movie that came out all three are god mode now, with goku being the only one not having a weakness but limited to his physical body unlike manhattan.
First i would like to say it was a very informative list…and all have analyzed nicely…But the top 10 were a disappointment.First ,as most are complaining…Wheres BATMAN ? He might not be #1material ,but he can definitely knock off half the guys mentioned here.If Ironman could make it ,Batman could too.
If you were talking about sole power ,then wheres SPIDERMAN ?
I hope u come up with a more updated version !
Totally agree.
i’d like to know how the most dangerous hero didn’t make it on this list. batman.. hes more dangerous than any of these power houses by far. don’t believe me, look him up and then tell me different..
The only thing is right about this list is that Goku is so high up! He is right to be second! But surely dr. manhattan should be 1st??
Furthermore, how did wolverine make this list??? Vegeta would kiss his ass!
hulk should be in top 5
5-black bolt
4-thor
3-senetry/silversurfer
2-hulk
1-suprman
I agree. Superman should have been first. Goku didn’t make much sense to go past superman or even to be on the list honestly. Especially since Superman’s power can be really only limited to the distance he is from our sun. Like what would he be at if he flew into our sun and then fought?
But ya I would have had him either in first or second.
Same as Thor, I dont really think he is number 1. He is powerful but I think to much of it is simply derived from him possessing his hammer. So that is something I am more curious about. What is power level without his hammer?
Thor’s power does not come from his hammer. At one point in time his Father put a curse on him because of his arrogance. That he had to maintain possession of his hammer. That curse has been removed. Like Superman and Goku he does not fight at full strength because of fear he would destroy the universe. What’s funny is he actually does own two other weapons that boost his power as well. He mostly used them when he was a child. His belt and his gauntlets. Goku on the other hand would rather train someone else fight because unlike other Saiyans he doesn’t possess the bloodlust. Superman, everyone know his situation. However, people forget he can get beat down by pure strength by someone strong enough. In all fairness it is really a toss up between those three. Either of them using a fraction of their full power would destroy everything in existence.
And Red Hulk (not even the original, and more powerful Hulk), dusted Thor quite easily. Go figure
i cant believe sups was nt made first. he can down in a sec
why is batman not on this list? you said yourself that he is a rediculosly skilled fighter….. please consider it.
Don’t be a fool. He has no special powers, is completely mortal, and could be killed with one gun shot to his face. He doesn’t even classify in the top 15, maybe 20.
yeah why isnt batman there he’s just as good.. i get why thor is number one he is pretty powerful but still
Dr Manhattan is the stronger than everybody combined……… and he is in 20th place. Please………….
oh come on, how can you even dare to compare chuck norris and bruce lee? bruce is dead.
Chuck Norris died 20 years ago, Death just hasn’t built up the courage to tell him yet.
chuck Norris has already been to Mars; that’s why there are no signs of life.
Some magicans can walk on water, Chuck Norris can swim through land.
Chuck Norris and Superman once fought each other on a bet. The loser had to start wearing his underwear on the outside of his pants.
Chuck Norris can cut through a hot knife with butter
Death once had a near-Chuck Norris experience
You sir, sound like a complete idiot. Those jokes are annoying as fuck and they are not funny at all. And you disrespected Bruce Lee with that unnecessary joke. Really? Bruce Lee should have killed his sorry ass a long time ago because of his horrible movies.
Moron the movies had to slow down the film so people can see lee and I do believe lee kicked oh what was his name ass .
thor is a joke-he needs gloves,belts,hats armor,hammer,stones,odin sword,odin magic an a bunch of other stuff to make him become powerful,what a joke.hercules is the most powerful in greek myth.,plus he beat thor in hand to hand combat.SUPERMAN is the standard of all socalled superheores.superman really does not get the credit he should.he is a kyptionan who has knowledge of their science an does not forget anything,he is a master at all fighting styles because he can mimic all he sees,he never uses all his powers or his strength,i like hulk but superman could easliy destroye him if he had too.anybody can make their heroes. beat another.Galactus,Asheim,the living tribrunal,eternity,moleculeman,efinity and a few more r truly powerful
Are you stupid? The hulk should ranked #1 in this list mainly because no matter how badly you beat him he will just get madder and become even more stronger (plus he is the most powerful marvel hero other than TOAA) Superman is a average hero mainly because even if he has so many powers he cant run faster than the flash and he doesnt surpass hulk in strength sure he has laser beams but can his beat Cyclops? No.
Also Thor shouldnt even be ranked 20 with everyone that is put up on here and also superman doesnt belong here unless its for his strongest attack – Infinite mass punch – would only bring him as high as rank 10-6 other than these points i think sentry is wrongly place under pretty much everyone if anything he should be number 2 or 3 because the same amount of people he saves void needs to kill and also it was mastermind that hired general to erase sentry from existence.. i think thats enough
You do realize superman is essentially a god in the future right … Superman Prime. Even in normal time he is invulnerable when exposed to the yellow sun.His only weakness is kryptonite and to some extend magic he should have been on number one .Superman can beat Goku or Thor anytime
I do not think so you forgot that thor can use magic derp
Hey what about The Ben 10. He must be on top 10.
No kidding because if we got the DNA of any of these heroes then man ITS SHOW TIME. And he can change into many aleans and he can have the power of any of this super heroes through his alean forms. Can anybody hear do that ?
He can posese powers like hyper strength , speed , intelligence etc and he can even be a ghost….
Can any superhero can match with the ‘ALEAN X’
Anybody think about it ?
Even superman or thor cant do what Alean X can do….
Who take Goku into the list ? And in #2.
Consider BEN BECAUSE HE CAN DIG WHAT THE OTHERS CANT !!!
your confusinig power with strength. hulk is the strongest. but others are way more powerful. ie they can do more things. thor IS more powerful than hulk, hulk is stronger. i wouldn’t have had thor 1 btw (unless rune king thor) but he is always gonna be higher than hulk as he can simply do more.
i think sups is the best. i cant believe thor was made first beside sups can beat him with one hand tied behind his back. thor is a joke
i like the hulk but come on- hulk is so limited even with banners smarts,superman would destroy him easily-superman is easily the greatest superman in comics creation.
I agree with parts of the list, several characters are written inconsistently though. With superman for example (since many would want to see him @ #1) if you go back far enough him getting hit with steel pipes stunned him, and doomsday spanked him pretty hard to the point of almost killing him. Then in other story arcs he is so powerful he can do virtually anything moving planets, etc.
I would be inclined to actually put him further down the list since his powers come from being a kryptonian (why is he so much more powerful than any other person from his planet?), remember there were millions of his race at one point and you can’t have a million #1′s.
Another example of this though with valid arguments on each side depending on the story arc, a weak version of silver surfer would be destroyed by the hulk, a strong version of the SS would just vaporize the hulk before he blinked an eye.
This list is based on how much people like someone. I like that you actually put Aquaman in it, but going by the vvery title of this website, Superman is the strongest in this list, if he can defeat Goku in a Death Battle, he can defeat a man where all of his power is in his hammer(Thor), and everyone else in this list. I am most definitely not a fanboy, just there is some glitches in this list hands down.
this list is the crappiest thing ive ever seen. i dont even know where to begin with it.
Superman at his prime, purely strength wise, dragged a chain through 6 planets and pulled them to a new solar system because of the exploding sun in the old one. To top that off, in JLA 1 Million, he created a planet. The new krypton was created through his own power after sitting in the core of the sun for ten thousand years. Superman prime also beat down the anitmoniter. Thor’s hammer was a joke for superman the first time around. Stark shouldn’t even be on the list and Goku would get fried by Superman’s 1million plus degree heat vision. Superman should be 1 followed by Dr. Manhatten
This list is the dumbest bullshit I have ever seen in history. Iron Man……powerful? No, Tony Stark is a genius with a heavily advanced armor. Personally, I like everyone on this list, but on paper, Superman will wipe the floor with everyone on this list, unless they use actual magic or kryptonite. I’m not fanboy. I know for a fact that I could have easily made a more reliable and factual list than this, and….oh, yeah, Black Bolt is WAAAAAAAY beyond the capabilities of Bruce Banner’s alter ego
The strongest is GOD. The end. Marvel/DC heroes and DBZ heroes are from different worlds altogether. So there’s no point saying who is stronger. It just depends on who likes what kind of cartoons/animes
I didnt know GOD was a super heroe….this is a list of super heroes isnt it ??
God is on the list. Thor is God!! There is no other.
This list is so stupid, Dr Manhatten should be number 1, not thor. Superman should be number 2. Seriously, Thor? Wtf?
actually thor is better cuz he is immortal! shish JOSH! an ur dumb too
I dont understand why batman isnt there but you cant argue Dr. Manhatten is the strongest but it sucks that he dont care about anything or anyone…………
Superman Needs To Be No 1 He Lifted Thors Hammer Already..
Superman and Thor are from different universes what are you even implying?
While Goku is stupidly OP’d and because of his setting being of a such a dramatically different power scale, hes up there with an asterisk. Silver surfer should be number one, followed closely by Dr. Manhattan. Adam Warlock is up there too.
If you are saying Goku is stupidly OP’d then you are a hyprocrite, first of all almost every character in this list is OP’d hence why they are on this list. Silver Surfer and Dr. Manhattan are OP’d as well but i am saying that because it is also true
Personnaly, i disagree with the list abve i think HULK should be much higher in the list.
At least top 10 or top 5.
And yeh just how other people have mentioned above hulk destroyed thor on Asgard so why is thor #1?also what’s the deal with Franklin?
i have no idea who or where he appeared.
I agree with the Thor vs hulk thing but I can tell you that Thor’s father Odin has finally died . An now Thor is the god of thunder an is really powerful now that his father is no longer in the picture . Got it
Ppl Thor’s father Odin died . He has all of odins powers now . I don’t know if he should be number one but he’s up there …..
That’s only writers who wants the Hulk to win. If you actually go in detail and compare all types of power of them two you would realize Thor is WAAAY more powerful than the Hulk. Hulk’s greatest achievment has been to lift a mountain at 160 billion tons. Thor has lifted 9 fucking planets and could surely lift millions if he had godly items to buff him up. Hope this sums things up for you. Screw Attack should make a real Death Battle of the two and then you would see;)
superman’s one weakness? did you forget magic? he is weak to magic as well. also superman is only powerful around yellow sun. put him on a planet that doesn’t have one and he isn’t worth anything. i think superman should be lower on the list bc his strength is only as good as his location. where as some other heroes it doesn’t matter where they are the power level is still the same. ALSO if the hulk can take down thor and as you say black bolt with just a whisper can shatter the hulks bones he should at least be higher then thor and thor should be lower. he should also be higher then dr. stranger. black bolt that is.
Ok I’ve posted here a lot, and I had a thought, if were talking about heroes in their absolute most powerful forms ide have to say that the sayin prolly takes it. It would be between superman prime, empowered surfer, berserker thor or super sayin4 gojeeta. The real most powerful would have been ss4 vegeeto when they had a pure fusion with the potara earrings, but vegeta crushed the earrings before either of them ever became ss4. When galactus forgives the surfer for all his betrayal in annihilation he becomes powerful enough to take on all the negative zone seekers wich are essentially negative zone surfers, instead of power cosmic they wield the essence. He also than heralds galactus’ rage and wipes the galaxy clean of annihilus’ forces wich becomes the great obliteration. Not enough can be said about the power of superman prime, no vulnerabilities and a massive increase in his already godlike power. Than thers berserker thor who is kinda like the hulk wherein he attacks friend and foe alike, if it weren’t for thanos, thor would have destroyd asgaurd and the 9 realms with his rage and power. So you tell me who realy is the most powerful of these gods, this list sux btw thers a lot of heroes that rent on it that should but the top 4 are kinda right although there order maybe wrong.
anyone that has to hav earrings to be powerful,what a joke.
thor #1 lmao
Goku solos beat anyone sorry marvel & dc fanboys.
wth? Superman can lift up too 6 tillion tons, he knows martial arts as well, he’s got x – ray vision and can paralyze your body. Goku has a great origin, but most of his powers relies on his ki (asian karate stuff powerd by courage and stuff). But his greatest strength is probably his attitude to never give up. But his weakness is letting his opponents reach their maximum. But Gokus power can not be matched with superman.
But if we were to look at it on another perspective like origins, villains.. Goku all the way. Until we meet batman or spawn.
Seriously dude, you might want to research just how powerful Goku really is before making comments like that. He had the ability to destroy planets as a child. Which is a fraction of his power as a SS1. Which he can reach SS4, can read minds, instant transmission, and he has merged with the dragonballs giving him infinite power and immortality. The reason he lets opponents reach full power is because he doesn’t like hurting anyone. Plus he is afraid to use his full power.
marvel & dc heroes don’t touch goku
goku combat speed : instant
goku speed : instant
goku power : unlimited
chi power>>>>>>>>>>>>>>strengh power
goku solos everyone…
I love all comics however I have to agree. Goku has reached a power that is ridiculous and he reaches it permanently. Goku has more power than any sun that Superman can power from and no weakness. I like Supes but it’s not much of a competition.
HORRIBLE.. HORRIBLE LIST !
Professor X WTF ?? Is he even a hero ?? he’s on FREAKING WHEELCHAIR ! he’s a mentor NOT A HERO !
I WANT TO ASK ONE QUESTION ??
WHERE THE FU*K IS MOTHERFU*KING BATMAN ?? YOU FAIL !
Batman’s not a real superhero, he just has the money to look good.
You can argue the same with Iron man
Batman however has the highest inteligence, combat skills, and performance under stress. His will power is unbelievable. you don’t need to have super powers to be superhuman, making you a super hero.
This is worst ratin list HULK and SUPERMAN are powerfull as compression THOR
i like that goku is on the list.i was watching japanese animation back in the early 90′s.movies like ninja scroll,fist of the north star,akira.i dig goku and dragon ball z.as far as our superheroes go we all have our favs.the list is most powerfull not strongest.after all thor was a god.mythologically speaking.where’s heracles or perseus.thor and heracles were equal in strength and the two were both considered buffoons and heracles did have his club.the 2 fought many times with neither ever winning.
Hi All are u contain super hero from comic
While idol for me is SHAKTIMAAN
who is indian super hero from natural power not comic writer imagine so 1 is SHAKTIMAAN
If Thor #1, how come he got rape by the hulk?
I read somewhere that zattana or however you say her name can kill anyone by saying there name backwards and at end of day chuck norris would roundhouse kick them all in the face
chuck norris sucks balls are you for real lmfao Bruce Lee did you know they had to slow the films down so the people watching the show could see him.. chuck norris was good but not that good come on for real….
I love everybody’s comments, but consider this. The power of Zeus alone would qualify for top honors. The power of Hercules could be top ten and just imagine atlas forever holding the world on his shoulders, could be pretty high on the charts himself.if you haven’t guessed I’m talking about CAPTAIN MARVEL if his history wasn’t interrupted by lawsuits and misrepresented by his new owners this list may be different talking with fans of the golden age most from that time period almost all say they thought he was the strongest.I don’t want to say this list is incorrect but some of the guys in front of him would be utterly obliterated in a battle of sheer strength.I say this out of love for I am a collector and I have read several thousand comicbooks and love most of the characters on this list.I also think SubMariner should have placed higher. In closing I say God bless you all let’s keep the heroes thrilling people for years to come.Shazam
Not the 70′s or 90′s Ghost Rider, but the 2009 Ghost Rider that went to Heaven, not Asgard, but HEAVEN and beat the renegade angel Zadkiel and the Anti-Christ. And took back Heaven. The Ghost Rider who could ONLY be beated by a weapon forged in Heaven and I am not talking about Asgard. The Ghost Rider who was created by God himself and I am not talking about Odin.
The 70′s Ghost Rider beats Hulk and he beats the Avengers.
70′s Ghost Rider << 90's Ghost Rider << 2009 Ghost Rider
Nobody beats God and nobody beats what God created.
If that’s true then I being created by God could go and snap superman’s neck and kill ghost rider with my finger. Plus why the heck would God create something like ghost rider I’m mean seriously ghost riders a freak from hell.
Wrong, Ghost Rider is a freak from Heaven. The true origin of Ghost Rider shows he was NOT created by Mephisto or Satan, but by God and with angel Zadkiel. Ghost Rider can only be killed by a weapon forged in Heaven, similar to Superman and Kryptonite.
Blow Ghost Rider into particles and he will regenerate back into his form. While he doesn’t have the sheer power of Superman Prime. You can’t stop GR, you basically can’t kill him, because in the series Heaven on Fire, it was stated only God can create or destroy a Ghost Rider.
Superman prime beat down a weaken anti-montior and a weaker one.
Let us forget that anti-monitor was weaken from a combined attack from the green lanterns and the blue guys,and that allow superman prime to finish the job,but his latest anti-monitor was not the same in power has the one from the 1980′s.
By the way green lantern should be ahead of superman,more so green lantern John ANYWAY green lantern deals with greater or more threats on a larger scale.
it funny how people talk about god on a list of made up people and super heros..that tells me something…
God was mentioned in the series of Ghost Rider. In addition, Ghost Riders were made to do God’s work. Don’t blame me dodo bird, blame the writers of Marvel. I would present scanned images from the Ghost Rider series Heavens on Fire, but the OP won’t allow it.
thor as no. 1 is a joke-his dad can take his powers away at anytime so how can he b that powerful? SUPERMAN is simply the best-woverine come on-hercules is a better fighter and stronger than thor plus he does not need all those gadgets to make him more powerful-noran reese is up there with anyone(molecule man).everyone copies of off superman anyway so what does that say?
Where is Batman?
well… dann… batman isnt the super one!!? really? and hes not the most 25th strongest!!!??
yo grace,thatz it batman iz a man he usez brainz over brawn which are nearly all superheroe’z while they are bashing there wayout batman will think hiz way out.batman eazily number one
Personally, I think Captain Atom should at least be on par with Franklin
Both have been shown to create entire universes with little effort.
But that’s just my opinion (sorry if this was said already. There are just too many comments)
in the movie ultimate avengers hulk lifts thor hammer…………………..and in hulk vs thor movie.hulk defeats thor,,den wt abt dat,making hulk rank 12, and thor 1..hulk shd be 1
thats not really canon tho is it. and its not a list of who beats who or even who is strongest (which is why hulk is not number 1) but who is the most powerful. thos has WAY more powers than hulk.
Wish He-man was on this list. Please guys now dont bash me up for this. Grew up watching He-man in a remote villlage in India on a 14″ B&W tv, in a village where electricity was a luxury. My father called it blasphemy watching foreign programs. Its due to the impact of He-man I was not drawn to smoking or chewing tobacco. Now sitting at my office in Dubai, was surfing the internet to check whether do other people love He-man as i do, but sadly no
. Finally Jeff, Sir if you have kids at home i request you to give them comics to read instead of telling them the horrors of the actual world, atleast it gives them a feeling that good always wins.
wat a bunch of losers, as if these characters or so called superheroes r for real. its amazing how much time u ppl invest in writing these blogs. get a lyf ppl, this world has enough serious issues to talk abt be it poverty, world peace etc etc.. u westerners so silly tats y its going down so fast cos of ignorants idiots lyk u ppl
LOL, awe did someone’s favorite super get crushed under the info gathered here. It’s ok bud it’s never too late to chose again.
By the way it is due to the success of the United States that we have the luxury to concern ourselves with such trivial matters, not because of any so called downfall. It’s part of our culture (we find heroes and great stories important to maintaining a positive and heroic future).
I’m not sure who you are or where your from but lighten up ole boy, tomorrow is another day.
Unfortunately even though Jeff’s comment is immature, as it doesn’t really make sense why he is on the blog in the first place, if no more than to deal out petty insults.
However, your comment about the United States was ridiculous…arrogant, violent people.
“However, your comment about the United States was ridiculous…arrogant, violent people.”
I’m not from the U.S. but I fail to see anything wrong with B’s comment, he was merely standing up for his country. Why shouldn’t he be proud that his country is successful?
However, I do see a problem with judging all of the people of a country in the same negative manner the way you did, especially considering you said Jeff was here “to deal out petty insults.”
If you don’t like petty insults, perhaps you should keep your petty insults to yourself.
How would the people of your country like it if I said they were all ignorant hypocrites just because I read your comment? =)
LOL ok there Jeff, how about we use some proper grammar and spelling before we start saying rude things about people.
Also, question, if you don’t care for super heroes what the hell are you doing commenting on a top 25 superheroes list, even if the list was very poorly done.
It’s funny you tell us to get a life when you’re spending you time going on sites you hate and bashing the people that enjoy them. Get a dude, and go back to school while you’re at it.
oh c’mon..!!!! for real..!!?? the only one that could bring all those super heroes to the test in only one…and is “Monkey” from Dexter’s Lab………Believe it ..!!!! ☺
In the list you are missing more female super heroines.
Well maybe the boys noticed their poor real power so they needed to create super heroes whith the powers they dream and that womans already have?
This list is based on opinion and evidence, you dumb piece of sh!t
I have an awfully bad feeling about the next Comicon now! Thanx to a lot of these pathetically ridiculous comments some of you idiot bastard comic nerd wanna be’s with to much time between masturbation sessions have made on this forum. I’m contemplating armed body guards and extra personnel security now! I’m dead serious.You know what? It’s bad enough the old staunch rivalry between DC an Marvel Heros & Villains. Now you wanna throw DBZ into the mix? Are you f*+$ing kiddin me, Seriously?? There simply is no comparison. If anyone really thinks so,and or wants there to be. Then please I suggest you get the hell back on your meds cause your pathetic and hopelessly rabid and may want to consider euthanasia A.S.A.P! Here’s an idea! How bout melding some crazy ass story board concepts together and produce the slaughtering,maiming,defiling of everyone’s favorite hero & villain to the point of oblivion & never returning. Yeah, that would be so much better now wouldn’t it! Awe,come on, don’t you think?? Everyone’s superhero can just die,and lay down and stay down for eternity.If you can’t appreciate the serious talent & creativity of any of the hero’s and villains out there with out having at least tried to create your own. Then please do us all a huge favor, keep your comments to yourself, and shut the f-$#* up already! BTW, Woodstock is and will always be “The God of All Superheros!” just ask Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the whole Peanut Gang! T Y V V M!! Schulz Rules Infinity, I win!! Next list already please…
Why isn’t Orgazmo on this list?
Nerd Fight! I love it.
Actually the most powerful superhero of all cartoons anime and comics would be Alien X. Alien X is completely invincible and immortal nothing can destroy him or hurt him. The most goku or superman could do is push on his side. Alien X can also do anything he desires as well as kill any thing no matter how powerful. The only weakness to Alien X is that to use his unlimited unstoppable power you need to make 2 other minds agree with you. But while your doing that you are still protected in his indestructible body. There ya go that beats goku and any other guy in this list easily.
You’re absolutely right. The only problem is, it might take Ben couple of days to convince Serena and Bellicus to twitch Alien X’s finger.
under no condition can any DC comic superheroes can beat DBZ saiyans. Any of DC superheroes will only be the grunts for the evil caracters in DBZ, none can make any damage. This include superman and doomsday. Many says doomsday can regenerate from any damage, but what to generate from if nothing are left but smoke and dust. Many evil caracters in DBZ have regenerative power but alas, Goku just totally kick their ass and kill them. Superman might done better with his red underwear left behind after the dust settle. Read DBZ comics or watch the movies, then know what i meant and why those sissies DC superherous just can’t make the cut and win. DC fanatics, no amount of argument from you all can change the fact or top this statement. Just go home to your mama and cry. Hahahaha…
lol good joke no one from dc can take dbz saiyans hahaha ill do a list of dc characters that would own dbz characters
ok
1.superman
2.spectre
3.the presence
4.green lantern
5.captain marvel
i could name more but cant be stuffed
Superman?captain marvel?green lantern? Goku was stronger than them in dragon ball, plus he is now crazy powerful now that he trained with the dragon.
haha!!! Really funny!!
Aye, too bad the story and characters of DBZ are shit
actually Goku is not a household name nor will he ever be and as far as your argument nobody care what you think. SUPERMAN IS A HOUSEHOLD NAME….Goku is NO HERO PLAN AND SIMPLE.
hey come on ” GOKU” is the most powerful hero in all because all the hero have some weakness but its only the goku who not have any weakness….. so for me “GOKU” is on No. 1.
Thor is immortal, Goku is not….
Uh, Actually Goku is Immortal by time the series ended. He merged with the dragon balls.
Who ever made this list doesn’t not read a lot of comic books how is thor ahead of hulk when he beat him it should be. 1.hulk 2.sentry 3.black bolt 4.thor 5.dr.manhattan. hulk has beat every super hero even blacbolt and he can blow up a world just screaming hello and sentry can blow a crator in the world with one punch and hulk can jump from world to world
if hulk can jump from world to world then why didn’t he jump away from planet hulk and second captain marvel should be on top he IS the one with 6 god powers! by the way NYAHHHH!!!
seriusly dud how can you say goku wen he has died how many times now superman is the man
Haha, I wanna see Superman even TRY to lay a finger on Buu, Baby, Super 17 or Shenron.. You guys say Goku is weak because he dies. But just remember the power of all of his enemies. Even Frieza us probably more powerful that most of the DC or Marvel Heroes or Villains.. Also, Naruto & Ichigo should be added.
The Sentry should be number 1 hands down. The most ridiculous comments im seeing are about the dbz characters somebody even said that krillin could even take out the entire marvel dc rosters. Fanboy much. Dbz characters like saiyans in particular cn not even survive unaided in space like most monster strong heroes like thor, sentry and the silver surfer. Ridiculous. Anime characters are not better than true superheroes
anime rules. There is truly no limit to ability when it comes to anime. True comparing anime to Marvel or DC is like comparing 100m runners to 10,000 runners in terms of speed but all that means is that at number 25 in the anime top 25 most powerful people would still win a fight against number 1 in the marvel or DC top 25 most powerful person. That being said Thor should not be at number 1 powerful as he his in the comic books he dies…
where is the main man LOBO?????
Dead right, Bit of an anti hero though. but no one can take out the last Czarnian! What a bad bastich!
why aren’t there people like ivos android on here? come on!!!
I may have forgot to mention the most influential and raw intoxicating spirit of all time.The one an only Mr.Dudley Moore & Liza Minnelli! May they never be forgotten! ” Long Live Arthur, Damnit !”A Drinker’s Heroic Champion!!
Well ! Well,well……. It’s seemmmsss like to me. Now more than ever, is a perfect opportunity to keep one’s favorite “Super Hero Alive!” Or In Some Sort Of Existence! So, “Long Live Elvira Infidels !” She’s my personally favorite Macabre, Gothic Super Hero Goddess Of all time!, almost like Linda Carter as DC’s Wonder Women!! Yah, that’s wright, and she’s Linda Freakin Carter Assholes for all youl Captain Marvel’s lover wanna be’s, Shazam!! Couldn’t even handle that Olympian Sweetness! & let not forget Isis!! She would so smoke The Dark Pheonix in what I would guess would be of at least ZIG- ZAG quality. So it’s ultimately the creator’s or fan’s ability to bring into existance an even more rediculiously ellabirated “VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCE SCENERIO” , in any way possible to engage the ” Never Say Die Heroic Champion Marathoner” That’s Only if Uh imaginative Universal Champion Nemesis Collaborator helps perpetuate the story line. So just work on the idea of just barely keeping each other in a existence for all time for crying out loud, & why the hell not? So Wake The F**K up all Comic Folk!! Even Aqua Man is making uh come back! Because, someone out there is not ready for The Atlantis Bad Boy Champion of The Seven Sea’s to be forgotten just yet! So, It’s time to do what any progressively optimistic, Stone Cold, Super Heroic Creator/ Dreamer aphitionato does best! Dream More & Make uh fuq-n-effort to convert those dreams into ambitions ligitimately heroic formats! Is able to stay way ahead of the next ” Ultimate Heroic Mind Fuq-ing Situation Of All Comic Time ! Create an oppertunity to save & preserve a moment in time, for all time.”The most powerful hero’s imaginable have the ability to end all time. For what they may consider the end of or beginning of, all times or a whole new beginning? This perspective and heroic opinion was sponsered by many “Bodingtons” It’s Creamy Dreamy Deliciousness brings out the out spoken bad english an grammer Super Hero in us all ! Well be thy one…..
Goku is the most powerful person/superhero/whatever! It’s just pure fact
Goku?…….oh he trying to say BATMAN…..i can see where you made the mistake, the word “goku” sounds extremely simmilar to “BATMAN”………..
The hell is a goku? Some sort of vomit?
I agree. Batman deserves to be on this list.
Seriously!!! don’t be idiot
just becoz superman holds bac and stilll manages to make the list makes ahim the best un like goku who goes all out like he is gona shit himself to kick achiilds ass
Superman Prime is the second most powerful being that has ever existed in the DC multiverse only surpassed by The Presence. He has acquired countless powers and abilities from his travels and lineage that allow him to do almost anything he wishes, which range from teleportation to the manipulation of magic and warping reality. He can manipulate time, space, matter, and bend reality on almost any scale he wishes.
Immunity- Superman Prime is imune to magic, kryptonite, lightning, mental manipulation, ect.
Creation – Superman Prime is able to create lifeforms out of nothing.
Resurrection – Superman Prime can resurrect the dead and himself.
Omniscience – Superman Prime has possibly learned everything in his time in the sun.
Omnipotence – Superman prime has near limitless abilties as far as we can see.
Omnipresent – Superman Prime can be any where at any time.
All Kryptonian powers under a Yellow Sun. All of his Kryptonian powers are enhanced.
Godlike Super strength – His strength is limitless, he is capable of lifting his own multi-verse.
Godlike Super speed – His speed is incomprehensible to even the abstract beings.
Godlike Super Senses
Godlike Xray vision – He can see through any solid object, with no exceptions.
Godlike Heat vision – A million times hotter than the center of the sun.
Godlike Super Stamina/Endurance – Capable of surviving the end of the Multiverse.
Godlike Invulnerability – Capable of surviving the end of the Multiverse.
Godlike Super Hearing – Cosmic Awareness.
Immortality – Superman Prime, will live until the end of Reality.
Such a shame he is not a Superhero. Then maybe he could have made the list.
He also collects power rings from lanterns. Really strong
Horrible, and incorrect list.
First of all, Dark Phoenix is NOT a hero. But if she was, she would be the most powerful one here since the Phoenix Force is an abstract, maybe Franklin Richards can rival the PF if he is in control of his powers. Everyone is on this list is herald level and below.
If we take out Dark Phoenix and Franklin Richards, then 1st would be a tossup between Silver Surfer, Sentry, or Thor (if he has the Odinforce). Goku stands no chance against guys who can move faster than light, and has matter manipulation. If he was to face Silver Surfer for example, Silver Surfer can just alter his Saiyan DNA turning him into a human. Plus he cannot fight people who are lightspeed, before u say Instant Transmission, just stop. Instant Transmission works differently than movement speed, he has to pinpoint ki signatures before he can teleport to the location, which is far slower than simple movement.
Ummm, do some research. Goku moves fights faster than the speed of light. Plus he absorbed the dragonballs giving him total power.
Also Nate Grey (X-Man) is stronger than both the Phoenix Force and Franklin Richards. He is the reason why Apocalypse infected Nate Summers (Cable) with the virus. He knew that at full power he would be too powerful.
Goku Make dust Everyone on this list!!!! include ur daddy silver surfer who is a lame slave…..
man goku ssj3 in this pics he is my favourit ultra hero
Hero: A person, typically a man, who is admired for courage or noble qualities.
Super: especially or excellence
Superhero: a person who is admired for the excellence in courage and especial noble qualities.
Nothing about strength at all.
Its Superheros not super heroine.
No Scarlet Witch, Emma Frost = list is a joke.
Thor? Really? EMMA FROST BEAT THOR’S ASS.
And Phoenix is WAY too low..
I agree with you. This lis was made by an homophobic man…
idk… The Rumor from The Umbrella Academy’s power is that anything she says becomes true. She could just say she’s the most powerful being in existence, or say all these others don’t, and never did, exist. Easy win.
First of all, for all of you guys saying beings like Galactus and Molecule Man. The subject is Greatest Superheroes of all time. Not most powerful beings.
Second, Marvel and DC did a collaboration a few years ago where the name the last man standing if the top heroes were to fight. With a full description why. Their list was topped by the Hulk, with Thor at number 2 and Superman at 3. Their reason, Superman can die, there is only one thing that can kill Thor (and true historians and comic fans know what that is) plus Thor actually has 3 weapons Megingjord (belt), Járngreipr (glove) and Mjölnir (hammer). Each weapon increases his power exponentially. He only uses one, the hammer. Which according to DC and Marvel the hammer alone is enough to take out Superman. The combination of magic and brute strength with a warriors combat skill. Good night Supes. If you still have doubts based on what the actual publishers say than you have issues. Plus imagine Thor using all 3 of his items. The belt alone doubles his strength.
The idea of fighting Hulk is a lot different. Hulk can and has been taken out with brute force. The object is to knock him out before he gets too angry. Which as we all know. Is a rare, rare, rare thing. Example when he lost to Abomination. Yes, he has a lost to the Abomination. Know what you are talking about before making comments.
The kicker is Goku, A genius warrior with incalculable power with no max. Combined with the fact he can read minds, instant transmission, and a butt load of other powers he rarely uses. Plus he is pure of heart. Hence the ability to ride on the flying nimbus. Plus the real kicker is he has merged with the Dragonballs giving him immortality and the ability to do anything he wants just as though he was granting wishes.
So just be honest with yourselves based on facts and this is about superheroes. Not about oh I am a fan of Superman or a fan of Thor or Goku.
To the people naming Phoenix. Think smarter, think Nathan Grey AKA X-Man. More powerful than Phoenix. With the ability that anything he thinks of happens. Plain and simple. His power is only lessoned by his doubt of himself.
And you might read in that collaboration how superman beats the shit out of Thor
Powergirl? Supergirl? Zatanna? And yet Wolverine makes the cut [no pun intended].
Didnt I just spend 6 months reading a story where Phoenix kicked Thor’s ass, and everyone elses?
All those female characters dont even make it on the list and no ladies are in the top 10? Weird.
Superman has two things that can kill him thor had had his a$$ handed to him by more than just the hulk. Hulk always over comes every thing thrown at him his strength is only limited by his anger and it is limitless as for how to get him angry it doesn’t take anything real bad and the killing him while he’s banner thing never works to sum it up
HULK IS STRONGEST THERE IS!!!!!!!!
Clearly you have no idea who Spectre is
I disagree, Superman may have 3 weaknesses(Yes theres three) but there hard to find. Kryptonite is rare, and the red sun is found lightyears away from earth. If you put Superman in a fight with Hulk, Superman will obviously win. Hell win mainly because if Superman fights Hulk, Hulk wont use any of Supermans weknesses against him, because all his weaknesses are rare so itll be impossible to beat him without his weakness’. So Superman deserves to be 1.
Im getting sick of people saying supermen is #1 i could beat him all I have to do is get Kryptonite i know its rare so I have no chance of getting it but super heros like silve thor and meny others could find it no prob so supss #1 not a chance i dont think he should make the top 10 and the Hulk sould be higher….
Hulk is strongest there is nuf said
Pretty sure if the hulk ate superman while wearing iron man’s suit with green lantern’s power ring and thor’s hammer while riding on the silver sufer’s surf board… He would win.
I think this is all wrong dr. manhattan has the power to do ANYTHING HE WANTS wich pretty much makes hin invinsible against thor
Mr. Majestic pwns every1 he is more powerful than superman ,warps reality like the Phoenix has mental powers, energy manipulation like goku he is like a complete package!
Yeah, no… It should go like this:
25 The Flash
24 Wolverine
23 Hercules
22 Lobo
21 Firestorm
20 The Hulk
19 Wonder Woman
18 Namor
17 Green Lantern
16 Marvel Girl (Rachel)
15 Gilgamesh
14 Professor X
13 Superman
12 Black Adam
11 Captain Marvel
10 Franklin Richards
9 Captain Atom
8 The Sentry
7 Thor
6 Goku
5 Spawn
4 The Phoenix
3 Martian Manhunter
2 Doctor Manhattan
1 Silver Surfer
If u look at overall power this is almost definitely the way to go, but really guys Aquaman and Ironman? They are not even powerful, and Supes at 3? It’d be pushing it if he even made top 10.
HULK in 20?? is the most stupid and lame thing l ever read in all my life…
Youe a RETARD!!! Superman is Invincible. He has 3 incredibly rare weaknesses. The most common is Kryptonite which all of it is locked up by Batman in case he’ll need it, and the rest is in Lex Luthors possesion. So Superman atleast deserves 3. He is in the Top 3 dont care what anyone says.
I have never seen so many virgins in one place arguing about non existent characters..
Shouldnt you all be putting your time towards finding a life?
Ha
Odin can take thors power any time he wants to. My pics supes,sufer,flash
Really Aquaman?
Ben 10 would beat everybody on this list if the universes became 1. marvel universe, dc universe, and dbz universe. he would be ultimate and dominate.
Phoenix. Is the most powerful she can destroy anybody just by merely blinking her eyes… She has unlimited power
blink of an eye to destroy anybody? Wow.. What power. Imagine what can happen if she flash her p**sy. Kabooommm.. Whole universe goes out including her. Only thing left is the ‘bush’ floating in nothing. Haha..
thor cannot be aged cannot be telepathiced thor is also son of the goddess of earth so he can controll earth by anyway he isnt using it cuz of pincibles or whatevs he can thunder by hıs hand he hurt zeus who paralyzed hulk thor is the god without any big weakness superman dies with 1 gram kryptonite thor is fast as flash and he can teleport any universe anytime he wants he can just kick goku to some empty universe btw odin is not a superhero he doesnt saves people thor lifted earth surrounded by heaviest snake thor deserves #1 and he gets it and superman is snack to him with or without kryptonite and he is son of odin for ****sake he can have odinpower or kryptonite he is next ruler of most amazing civilization
gogeta and vegito would take out all the superheroes if they 2 were 1 team .even vegeta can beat superman
Okay, so…
I am a big fan of both anime/manga, American Comics (mostly Marvel), and in all honesty most nerd media. Dragonball Z has been called the greatest action epic of all time, and while it is not my favorite, I feel I must agree. The likes of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby never had a road named for their work that only they could drive on to make sure the issue got out in time. Look up Dragonball Road when you get the chance. As far as power goes, Goku and his comrades are by and large more powerful than anything else. Thor is a god first and foremost, and at best he could probably go toe to toe with the Nappa.
Power levels are a decent measure to compare by. Frieza could easily destroy a planet with no effort in his initial form with a power level of about 550,000. Goku in his GT SS4 form has a power level of about 1.2 billion! That is over 1,000 times the power it takes to destroy a planet! Krillin with his max at well over 50 million could single-handedly wipe out the entirely of the Marvel and DC Universes. The power climb is disgusting, but irrefutable.
As to reality benders like Dr. Manhattan or Proteus, you have to assume the rules all respective universes apply in this toyboxing scenario. So, Goku VS Dr. Manhattan: DBZ and Watchmen realities are fully in play. Meaning that Dr. Manhatton can maintain his full controll of molecular properties. However, in the DBZ universe this would be akin to Shenron’s control over reality, it is limited by the scope of his power. Shenron can give life, and the peak of Dr. Manhattan’s power is speculated to be the same. Shenron could not take life or alter any being who as too powerful, and so would be the fate of Dr. Manhattan.
From the standpoint of physics, much as Veidt’s tachyons were capable of diffusing much of Dr Manhattans vision, Goku would simply contain too much pure energy for Dr. Manhattan to manipulate. But, Goku could also never kill Dr. Manhattan. It would be a stalemate; like light VS air.
Leaving out such complexities as reality modifiers, anime contains the most “broken” characters that I am aware of. Using DBZs power scale (average human is 5, about 2,000 is nuclear level power) the general list would go as follows…
#1) Dragonball Z/GT Universe – Average PL – 500,000,000 + (incomparable)
#2) Yu Yu Hakusho – Average PL – 50,000 + (big step down, and still excessive and would probably be owned by the Ginyu Force)
#3) Marvel/DC Brutes – Example Thor/Superman/Hulk + – maybe 5,000 – 15,000 (could probably take down Nappa. OVER 9,000!!!)
#4)Star Wars – Average Jedi or Sith is probably over 100, Vader/Reven/Luke/Kade/Yoda/Starkiller all probably about 500-1,000 tops.
#5) Naruto, Bleach, Inuyasha – Some characters approach Goku/Piccolo level at the end of Dragonball – 350 or so.
#6) Marvel/DC Typical Superheroes – Spiderman, Captain America, Wolverine, etc – from slightly super human to “Amazing” – PL = 10-300 or so.
#7) Everything Human – 4-10, Like Batman or Kick-Ass for example.
The power climb is the only real critique that can be made of DBZ, because the overdramatic passages and goofy tropes are simply cultural, and it would be xenophobic to discredit he writing do to cultural tropes. The tendency for power-ups and dialogue running a bit long are really only noticed by those who look for them or those who are more accustomed to more western conventions. But s power goes…The Dragonball Universe cannot be touched.
Goku is NOT superior to superman superman has picked up blackholes and even if u did destroy the sun that wouldnt immediately turn off his powers not even under a red sun does that happen it takes time for him to run out of juice he has also survived a nuclear bomb on an island made of kryptonite this is assuming that goku would know ANY of supermans weaknesses in the first place goku will run out of ki trying to take out the man of steel LONG befire supes runs out of energy
Perhaps Goku during his fight with Vegeta in the first arch of Z would struggle against Superman. But this debate was covered in an issue of Wizard many years ago using the Super Saiyan model from the Frieza fight. Even then with a power level of 15,000,000 (pitifully weak in the DBZ/GT universe as it continued) and Superman was pitifully outmatched. Depending on the age and author, Superman’s powers have been established as something just beyond nuclear at best. By simple math using the power level model you can determine his PL to be within the range of 5,000 to 20,000 at absolute most. Goku would hardly be necessary. The Ginyu Force could dispense with Superman (along with the entire JLA) with ease. Dragonball characters are hopelessly broken and untouchable until someone writes something with a more ridiculous power climb (which I hope never happens).
DUDE youre actually a moron… if you want to talk about DB as a series and the entire continuation of power levels then you need to do your homework on superman and what hes done in his comic book life span… just above nuclear at best…? YOURE CRAZY! superman has acontained a sun that is 3 times larger than our own while it turned supernova with his baire hands..? a sun that would of destroyed earth and while thinking to himself how he could save the planet he actually thought of p-erhaps moving earth further away..? JUST HAVING THE AUDACITY TO THINK THAT MOVING IS A POSSIBILTY SETS HIM APART FROM EVERY SUPERHERO ANIME CHARACTER OR ANYTHING!!!! HENCE THE WHOLE SUPERMAN IS OP’D ARGUMENT COMES FROM…? please kid do your research becasue youre coming with these stats and figures when i can leave it on this note…… Superman sneezed a galaxy away….?
Firstly, I am most certainly not a “kid”, and second I don’t particularly appreciate the insults; especially being referred to as a “moron” by somebody with the grammar skills you’ve displayed. I have read about the more outlandish feats that Superman has achieved in the more recent stories, and even with DC’s rather atrocious lack of research into physics before much of what they write, feats like containing a solar energy are specific to a kryptonian. Kryptonions are empowered by solar energy, so gauging this feat would hardly attest to anything. I believe that several DC writers have established that Superman has far lower physical limits, seeing that he is defeated and even killed by characters that couldn’t even “sneeze” and destroy a city, and certainly not a galaxy. I will grant you that if Superman could fly a DBZ character into space or into the sun he could win, but he could never physically overpower them. My stance is an educated one that includes not only the knowledge of the various media in question, but a fair amount of physics knowledge as well. Superman could never survive an encounter with even the weakest DBZ character. The DBZ power climb is disgusting, but all power discussions aside, would you really want to take away the only integrity in the Superman character? DBZ’s one big drawback artistically is the power climb, Superman only real strength artistically is that he is NOT overpowered. Superman is simplistic and insipid with virtually no complexity or depth of character. Why would you want to take away one of the few qualities Superman has as a character my escalating his power? Because as far as well-written characters, Superman doesn’t even make the list.
Dude Dbz characters can kill anyone… Just frieza which is a weak character towards the end of the serie could destroy an army of supermans… So imagine goku he could probably take in 10 000 thors and kill them with one kamehameha if he wanted
Your absolutely right!
Ok, the author not only got pretty much everything wrong, but also neglected many other heroes — namely ones like Sentry, Quasar, and Molecule Man. Several Marvel Heroes and entities have the ability to atomically reconstruct matter, (like Dr. Manhattan can), or warp reality. How could Superman, Goku, or Thor beat that?
SUPERMAN is the only superheroe the rest r just copycats or desperate attemps by writers to create their own versions of heroes. which is why superman is used as a template , even if u say thor is a god or the silver surfer is the herald of galactus so he is powerful in the end you will have to compare both with SUPERMAN to measure just how powerful they r and u will never know the answer coz KAEL is always using 10 percent of his power , why ? , well like he said “i am always holding back becoz i feel like i live in a world made of cardboard , always afraid i could break something” ……..SUPERMAN FOREVER alongside batman and wonder woman
first thing is after constant battle super man needs our sun to recharge. in fact he couldn’t use his abilities without it. Not to mention he can get killed with a piece of kryptonite which seems to be something anyone could get their hands on if they wanted to. Really i agree with B’s comment. For instance Hulk could crush most heroes in a brawl with just fists but he would lose against other heroes powers. Thor’s invincible but without his hammer he’s just a blond old English talking twit.Yet with his hammer he could send you to Asgard to be crushed by ice giants (though most of the time their pretty easy to kill).
We shouldn’t talk about which super is the best but rather which super we like and why.
Like i like spider-man because of his awesome powers and the fact he gets really sexy girls like the black cat (woo the black cat is amazingly hot i think) but he also get to run up walls, shoot webs, make wise crack jokes, and fight cool villains. But someone else might like hawkeye or poison ivy (who is also really sexy in my opinion).
So i don’t think superman is used as a template and that he’s even copied by the marvel creators or other dc universe creators. Though he is used as a template by some people preferably mega-mind’s metroman.
So lets not argue but discuss which super we like and why. After all we all love super heroes so why don’t we just get along?
If Dr.Manhattan cared, he would destroy who ever though about this page along with all the commentators. so….. He is not even suppose to be on this list… IT’S JUST NOT FAIR WHAT HE CAN DO, SO DON’T BOTHER JUDGIN…
uhm ok, Franklin Richards should be number one, how the hell does Thor become #1? The freaking Hulk has beat him a number of times and left his beaten body to die only for someone to come and bring him back to life. Although it has been said that if Thor wanted the Hulk dead he merely could use his true power. Seriously though who cares about sheer power when you can just imagine what you want away. Green Lantern shouldn’t even be on the list, how many heroes/villains have yellow in their costume? What about Hiro from Heroes? The ability to control time and space, stop time, teleport you into any countless ways to die, resume time, dead, and he’s not even on the list. Super man is overrated, he is a freaking alien. Nothing about him is super. “Oh I come from another plant that has a higher gravity than my own and the idiot readers think I can fly, might as well shoot lasers out of my eyes too while I’m at it, and what the hell I can’t compete with Marvel so let’s give me a few others.”
I BET superman can hit HIRO with a brick in the head before he teleports to the future
As Stan Lee said, it all depends on the writers… 1 things for sure, the most powerful super being in Marvel is “One-Above-All (Multiverse)” He’s more powerful than ALL the Super Beings in the whole universe combined. All though he’s good, he doesnt align himself with good or evil in the universe. Only when someone tries to alter the universe will he make his presence known.
Marvel Universe is full of overpowered characters “its boring”
I have all faith that Batman would be number one if you use the time he had a green lantern ring.
personally i think the green lantern ring is over rated maybe batman with superman’s powers
Dr. Manhattan is #20? For real? Who else on this list literally goes to another universe to be a God? He could annihilate any one of these other guys just by waving his hand.
When the hell did Goku become considered a superhero?!
1.since when was goku a superhero
2.Martian manhunter has more powers than superman
3.where is Dr.Fate he is DC’s equivalent to Dr.Strange but he’s more powerful
and 4.Superman is even more powerful than Thor
Since when has he not been considered a Superhero? He IS a Superhero. He saves people. People looks up to him. He’s one of the strongest beings in the universe(By the end of the series). He has only, ONLY done good deeds throughout his life.(that’s why he’s some of the only ones who can ride the Nimbus-cloud and get ressurected as by the Dragon Balls, as well as why he keeps his body while being dead.(normal people turn into spirits))
How in your right mind would you NOT consider Goku a superhero? Heck, even his sons are Superheros. His oldest son Gohan, was at one point stronger than Goku himself, even. Goku and his gang has more Superhero in them than many other of the Marvel- and DC Characters.
power that would be superman and the only guy on this list who can move planets not thor , hulk , or even dr manhatan
Goku is the most powerful superhero SSJ 4
Hulk should be number 1 for as he gets angrier he gets more powerful thus not even goku or superman would withstand hulks massive power.
Although Hulk gets stronger as he gets angrier, he still needs that “push”. It’s true that both heroes (as far as we are concerned) do not have a cap on their strength. Superman can start off at maximum and end the Hulk with speed and strength alone (we all know superman will not kill and that he holds back all the time). There’s also another hero we are forgetting…The Sentry who is claimed to be the strongest in the Marvel Universe.
this order is mestup bro except for thor and superman and flash
….ok the problem with this list is they aren being properly categorized, there are two types here, human level superheroes, that are stronger than humans but grow old and die, and god like super heroes, that with mere thoughts or actions destroy entire galaxies blah blah blah. in a battle of pure strength superman, hulk, capt marvel even, goku would top the lists, their physical strength just continuously rises/no limit. that is what i think.
What a sorry list. Where’s Donald Duck on the list?! His power? He wear no pants and gets away with it. Who cannot wear pants on this entire list? They all have to.
Well, hate to correct you, but Dr. Manhattan had plenty of time on screen with his massive blue schlong hanging out. =P
THor is not as cool as iron man!
ya he is
C’mon man. All the powerhouse characters in marvel could whip Thor. Any of em’
goku should be no 1 cuz he is willing to die for the earth and he wud kik thors ass i rekon
Well for anyone who would like a genuine display of Comic Hero & Villain ingenuity and genius, I would ask you to blow the dust off of Marvel’s Secret Wars Series #1 through #12. There are some serious evolutionary changes that happen during this brief interlude that radically change the power potential of a lot of these traditional character’s that make them worthy of being mentioned on this list! The “Beyonder” for instance and Dr.Doom attempt to thwart Galactus, and Molecule Man for cryin out loud saved all there hides in the end with a masterful plan of manipulation designed by none other Captain the of all captains, Captain America of coarse! I know ,I was hoping it was going to be the Mystic Brainiac Dr. Strange as well. Anyway, just a little recommendation for those pursuing real comic character understanding and there boundaries and limitations. Suggestion, READ MORE! & POSITIVELY IMPACT/ CHANGE YOUR WORLD AND BE A REAL HERO!
Technically Superman has two weaknesses, if you want to count the animated feature with Superman and Black Adam…. which has Superman weak against magic.
OMG!!!! Wow!!!! To the Author known as Jessica, you are now my personally favorite Comic Goddess!! I am dead serious. This list that David composed just a lil while ago was obviously designed to stir up the passion of “The Comic Book Crowd” and commence a conversation that amongst “Comic Folk” can easily turn competitive & ugly at times real quick as seen on these wonderful comments.So with that being said. just wanted comment on your latest comment & perspective on Thanos,Quasar,TLT including the Infinity Gauntlet Series is right on! Truly any Serious Comic Reader could not and would not even make any miserably pathetic attempt to dispute your Comic Understanding Awesomeness! Well some egomaniac geeks / nerds might try but wind up loosing that argument hands down immediately before it even gets started.I am suprised however that no one mentions “The In-Betweener” or “The Atom” after his transformation which evolved him to Phoenix or even Dr. Manhattan potential! Maybe that was Molecular Man? Any way, it’s been a pleasure reading most of these Self Proclaimed Comic Folk comments,however not all of them.
Aww thanks so much kevin, its hard to find people who appreciate a true comic girl. However the in-betweener? I mean even he wwas tricked by thanos twice, once to stop the magus and again to get the soul gem, an at his best he’s as powerful as galactus, and he’s a pretty bad guy. Now the pheonix wich is a true cosmic entity should be the all powerful, she’s tecnically all energy that is, ever was and will be in the universe so she certainly should be higher up there, I still adam warlock and captain mar-vell should be at the top of this list, the nega bands command dark energy and that’s what holds the universe together, that still in my opinion doesn’t compare the organicly perfect adam warlock, I already went on a rant twice bout him (cause he’s my fav, and obviously the most powerful), but thanks for the nice comments, I appreciate it
dont forget the galactus he was there even before the universe was created…..
and the most powerful character should be SHINCHAN
EVERYONE IS WRONG!!! THE ONE ABOVE ALL IS THE MOST POWER FULL AND THEN THE LIVING TRIBUNAL!!!
Actually your are are wrong, this thread is about most powerful heroes, the living tribunal and TOAA are not heroes and don’t involve themselves in affairs that don’t threaten all realities, and still TOAA is tecnically responsible for all bad and good. Perfect example is when the living tribunal refuses to intervene against thanos durring the infinity gauntlet affair, the only time I ever saw the living tribunal try to intervene was when thanos had the heart of the universe,,and thanos usurped him, so I think thanos is the most powerful hero cause he does become a hero and he has been the eternity of his reality twice, the living tribunal of all realities, he brings the magus down twice, and helped destroy the goddess when she tried blow up all the suns in our universe he destroyd the cancerverse, and finally scrifices himself to correct the cosmic end of all realities, and his only achilese heel is drax the destroyer and he finally kills him too, let’s not forget he is the avatar of death and that doesn’t make him bad cause quasar was also the avatar of death, what thanos can’t do with his enormous power he accomplishes through knowledg and understanding, thanos always thinks so far ahead he wins before he even starts
Thank you. Enjoyed reading your post. I still think Thor is #1. Remember the comics when I was a kid and enjoy the movies…watch the “Walking Dead” series and I am trying to find the comics. Thanks again.
Where is HE MAN in this list..
He Man!!!!! Are you kidding!!??? He’s a total pansy, he’s nothing without his sword. He wouldn’t even make the top 200!!
He Man is a girl that wears a tutu in his spare time!!
Franklin Richards rules
Silver Surfer For second
Sentry third
Strongest is Tenga Toppa Gurren Laggan, he threw a galaxy. A GODDAM GALAXY!
thor is weak,superman or goku will the top 1
Thor is weak? I am not a huge Thor fan, but check out X-Men vs Avengers, where he knocks the Phoenix force back into space. I actually think Thor is over powered, and Goku has 0% chance of whipping him. DBZ heros are on a lesser level than guys like Thor, Superman, Silver Surfer, Captain Atom, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, ect…
Superman should be number 1 while goku number 2. Thor should be like number 10. Anyone ever heard of superman prime one million. He’s pretty much omnipotent.
Totally agree with you Fernan!! Superman Prime 1 million is probably the most powerful being in the DC universe next to the Presence! He is practically a god!! He has no weaknesses and will outlive time it self!?
The sad thing is that the fanboys will argue about this until their butt-hurt runs out, when the only answer is that the most powerful hero is the one belonging to the writer of the current story.
bingo
How is Adam Warlock not on this list, he’s one of the most powerful heroes in the marvel universe, he’s contained super novas, he’s destroyed entire timelines, he’s even rewritten reality when he overlaps our timeline with the magus’ to stop the fault in space from spreading, he heals the fabric of space after the annihilation conquest, he was the only organic entity that phalanx ultron thought was perfect enough to house his consciousness.. there’s not much if anything that adam warlock can’t do, and he never actually dies he just becomes the magus and the magus is beaten by the past Adam warlock, he spanked thor when he was HIM and tried to take lady siff, Adam Warlock deserves to be on the list more than anyone else, let’s not forget Adam Warlock possessed the infinity gauntlet and stood as a God he’s also one of the only organics that can summon eternity and infinity, he’s my fav hero so I’m biased but still, he deserves to be on this list, somewhere
American Comics Sucks. those super heroes never dies or the story never ends.
if those author run out of ideas they will just create new characters that will wipe them out and revive them again so that new stories will be made. so much inconsistency!
any author can think what power he has, like God like, can do this, can do that without so much explanation.
Marvel and DC comics superheroes goes way beyond explanation creating characters that have powers over imagination. Omniverse the Limit! or no limit at all.
i totally agree!:)
Look, I’m not going to justify any of that, with a real response. American comics are SO much better. How much of Dragonball is just “filler”. The dialog is crap, you spend 12 episodes WAITING on a fight, and the story is not much of a story. Goku would wet himself, in the presence of Thor or Silver Surfer.
Dragon Ball Z is a joke, and any of the characters making this list, is a joke. Blah, blah, blah, power level, blah, blah, blah. Over 8000, blah, blah, blah. Where is Goku, Blah, blah, blah. He is in the time chamber, or the spirit world, or whatever, jerkin his chain, and talking for 12 episodes, so we can have a one episode fight scene. Dragon Ball Z is PIS, the entire thing is PIS. It was an OK cartoon, but poorly written, compared to American comics.
And here come the Hulk fans. Hulk lost soundly to Superman in DC vs Marvel, and Silver Surfer has not only beat him, but embarresed him, whenever he felt like it. Read Tales To Astonish # 83, where Surfer let an enraged Hulk beeat on him, till he got sick of it, and PIMP SLAPPED HIM COLD!! Then when Hulk came back, Surfer turned him back into Banner. The ONLY win Hulk has over Surfer was during WWH, when Surfer was void of the power cosmic. As far as his wins over Thor, it is because Thor does not throw his magic at hulk. It is an honer thing. It is a warrior thing. It is a THOR thing! “Hulk has unlimited strength”. Unlimited is a relative tearm in comic books. His unlimited is not on par with Galactus. Galactus would smash Hulk, like a little green booger. Read some comics, and not the ones with PIS.
To the people flipping out about Wolverine being on this list, there’s one very simple reason he’s here.
He’s the original you-hurt-me-and-I-heal-hero, or at the very least the one who made the type iconic and spawned another twenty or so. One of the more extreme depictions of his power had him recovering quickly after being near the point of impact of an atomic bomb. Literally, you would have to be one of the people on this list to kill him, meriting his placement.
And I’m a bit confused as to how Phoenix and Professor X are placed. Phoenix has the power to consume stars to fuel herself… she is cosmic power embodied… and she’s in the lower half.
the Metabaron should be number one!!!!
This list is a JOKE!!!! No F’n way Goku beats the silver surfer. No way superman does either!! Thor and Surfer have fought twice, and both times were very inconclusive, due to circumstances. During their first fight, Surfer seperates Thor from his hammer, but stops. During Blood and Thunder, Thor beats Surfer, due to the fact that Surfer is not really fighting back. Goku don’t even belong on this list. He is not in the top 50. What will Superman do, when Surfer turns the sun red, or turns himself into kryptonite? This dude don’t know his comics, as well as he thinks he does, and post Annialation Surfer pawns all! Goku! Jap comics are CRAP!
totally agree with you, Michael! i thought silver surfer should have been the #1 here.
The same Superman who is now immune to Kryptonite? The same Superman who sat for 1000000 years in a super sun, super charging?? He is omnipotent now….you may know your comics. But clearly not them all. Some of these on the list should be there, others are in a whole different league…
What exactly can Dr. manhatten do.
nothing! he is a joke:)
A joke?
Doctor Manhattan would laugh if anyone on this list challenged him, but one would have to wonder if he’s laughing at the challenger or laughing at a joke he heard fifty years from now. =)
LOL bs. Hulk would whoop anyones ass idc who
Hulk is by far the strongest superhero in the world. Idk why people think superman is stronger?!
The Hulk the strongest!!! Ha ha ha, your head is away with fairies if you think Hulk should be number 1. Hasn’t Superman beaten him twice?? I know Hulk is strong and gets stronger as he gets angrier!! But Superman has limitless strength, especially the evolved Superman, known as Superman Prime ( The Golden Superman). He has no weaknesses, even kryptonite doesn’t hurt him. He is basically the most powerful being in the DC universe, he has Godlike powers. And anyway my 4 year old daughter could beat the Hulk, she could sing him a lullaby, he’ll go to sleep, turn back into Bruce Banner!! And then she would lop his head off!! If anything my baby girl is the most powerful Superhero, trust me when she looks at you with those eyes, she has you, you’re trapped, under her spell!! Yep that’s it then my little princess is the most powerful. Sorry guys I know, but unless you’ve got kids, you might understand!!
Dr. Manhattan is definitely a number one super hero… Thor is nothing in front of him, in fact no one can stand against Dr. Manhattan
we have to have a fair fight as follows:
Dr. Manhattan vs. Galactus vs. Hyperstorm vs. Apocalypse
I excluded DB and Naruto series.
lol no deadpool? what a joke.
WOAH WOAH! Goku is number one. =.=
True Datt! Anyone seen the new avengers film, I know it isnt original thor but in this case hes a bit of a nancy. Not just that but Goku super sayin 1 is probably equal to superman, Goku moved faster then the speed of light before he turned super saiyan, now he is super saiyan 4 i dont think anyone is stopping him. Goku could just teleport him to the son and he would be dead. Boom ! KAMEHAMEHAAAAAA!
See that is the problem. Just about everyone from dragonball Z is super strong and if this guy put everyone from DBZ on the list their would be no room for any of the actuale comic book heroes. They would just dominate the list.
If Goku is number 2, where does Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta and Omega Shenron rank? As much as I like Goku, he is not the smartest super hero. Most of the other superheroes are doctors and scientists. Where Goku exceeds in strength, he lacks brains. He’s a brilliant fighter, not initially, it took him 3 attempts to find out Pikan’s weakness, he had no answer for Captain Ginyu’s change technique. He failed his driver’s test.
If Goku is number 2, where would Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta or Omega Shenron rank? Goku couldn’t beat Shenron without the help of fusion. As much as I like Goku, he is not book smart or very street smart for that matter as Vegeta has showed us from time to time. I.e. letting Vegeta escape after first fight, letting Jeice get away to get Captain Ginyu, and not finishing off Fat Buu because he wanted the boys to have the chance to do it on their own. He’s strong, but not very smart and he failed his driving test.
Not smart? He wins a lot of battles off of smarts rather then might. Even against Cell, he fought before Gohan so he could see how Cell fights. He trained studying with fighting strategy and also common knowledge as well. Goku isn’t a tactician like Vegeta or Piccolo, but he’s definitely not dumb.
A-men
What about Shaboozle? He’s stronger than all of them combined!
Fools goku died twice and came back to life, reached super saiyan 4 and then merged with the eternal dragon shenron. He probably has unlimited wishes. Frieza and cooler destroyed galaxies goku beat them as a super saiyan 1. Goku is way faster than the flash, he has instant transmission he can travel to another galaxy in a second. If Thor or superman could even manage to hit goku in the face I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t even budge. The only person I can’t see goku beating is hancock only because he is an angel and can’t die, it would probably just be a tie cause hancock doesn’t have enough strength to touch goku and that’s real talk.
Goku!!!??? You’ve got to be joking, Superman Prime 1M could just think him out of existence and then bring him back to life if he wanted to. Superman Prime became one with the source. He can travel anywhere in the multiverse instantly, will outlive time itself. He can create life, bring life back from the dead. He has infinite strength, has no weaknesses, the list goes on.
So to say that Goku would defeat him in a battle is laughable. I doubt they would get into a fight anyway, they would probably turn out to be good mates.
Goku can’t go outside the Earth. Superman and Thor can.
What are you talking about Goku can breath in space just like any other saiyan
gook can not breath in space, but he would def fuck superman and throes day up!!!!
Hey where is Chuck Norris ?
Dr. Manhattan at 20? Is this a joke? I’d take him against anyone on this list hands down. Watch Watchmen and tell me how someone like Wolverine gets ranked ahead of him in a “most powerful superhero” list
Technically the most powerful person in the Marvel Universe is Nathan Grey AKA X-Man. His power…think iabout something and it happens. Example…everybody on this list die. Everybody dies, lol. Then you have Gladiator who noone likes to fight, no one. However I do like the list with Thor being on top and Goku second. At Gokus current level after absorbing the dragonballs he has no limits or weaknesses except he dosen’t have a killer instinct and is a wuss.
what about superman prime one million he would own all of these characters
what about scooby doo??
hey …. where is ben 10 ????
I think ben 10 is most powerful super hero .
And his cool watch ultimatrix is the most powerful weapon .
The most powerful hero is Shakitam
Superman should be #1! and thor to #3
Where’s Batman?
batman would get stomped by all of them, I’m sick of all this batman shit he has NO POWERS. most people on this list can move at super speeds he’d never have a chance. And why is green lantern not higher he’s one of the only ones who can stand up to thor. Sure he needs to recharge but thats not the issue here it’s how strong they are.
As you could see from reading my previous comments I am a die hard marvel fan, but batman just happens to be on that list to, why? Because batman has proven time an time again against much more powerful oppenants, do not fuck with batman. He beats you before the fight ever starts, he’s one of the most feared people in comics, the dark knight has proven that it can be done without powers, he went up against the JL also he tricks friggin darkseid. Batman is one the greatest heroes ever and can neutralize just about anyone with sheer cunning, so batman deserves a spot, and once again you don’t wanna fuck with batman.
thank you Batman beat superman he definitly need to be in the list some people understand
Don’t worry, I thought the same, but I remembered Batman is not classified as a “Superhero” as because he has no super powers or abilities. Instead he is classified as a Detective hence why DC is named Detective Comics. However, if this included only comic book heroes I am sure Bats would be top 3. So with Batman out of the question, Where the is Spider-Man on the list?
- Long Time Comic Book fan (especially Batman, and Spider-Man)
Hulk atleast number 1 or 2. He almost killer Thor in Hulk vs. Thor. He conquered his own planet and then went back to earth to defeat every Marvel character. When he realized he was wrong, he quit fighting. Read World War Hulk and update this.
Green scar hulk should definitely be in the top ten list. During the world war hulk series he managed beat black bolt, doctor strange, and even the sentry all by himself. If they are on this list then why isn’t he?
Ultimately Superman is the most fun to watch. Who wouldn’t want to be him? Comics are comics. If you think about it, in a hundred years from now the comics will have made all the super heros die and come back to life. They cant keep doing the same thing. Superman died once, and probably never again. Now I feel like I just told everyone that the Easter bunny, Santa and god doesn’t exist.
Superman didn’t die! Why do people keep saying this! I swear the only thing people seem to remember about the whole fight between Superman and Doomsday, was Superman’s supposed death. In Fact Superman’s body went into a deep comma to heal itself. After Superman came back he was stronger than ever. It was also revealed that what doesn’t kill Superman, makes him even stronger!
well..as an artist who wants to create his own comic universe,i have to say i agree with them placing thor as number 1 coz he is cool,powerful nd he is also a god……super man can handle him with all his powers.
Being a god counts for nothing its just a title as far as I’m concerned because Thor has had his ass handed to him by silver surfer and hulk
if goku is included in the list, why not consider dante from dmc?
Clearly Goku should be number one. If he has to fight anyone more powerful than him, he just gets really angry and becomes stronger, or he dies and gets resurrected 10x as powerful.
i didnt get it. my friend, i am a dmc fan.i played and have all devil may cry games.Saw the anime or what the fuck it is(i dont remember) and now i wait dmc 5.BUT i dont believe dante or nero should be in the top 10.
Does noobody relize how limited the hulk is. all he’s got is super strength and endurence and gets stronger as he gets angry
Red she-hulk is stronger than anybody who does not have the hulk name.
seriously, hulk beat thor so bad. In the comic movies. and in the WWH he beat no he destroy black bolt,
oops … and The Spectre??
…and where’s Galactus???
thankyou for including GOKU on the list. It is nice to know that someone recignizes GOKU as a superhero. GOKU may not be from marvel or D.C., but he is byfar the closest out of any other hero, to a real gardian of the innicent. and another thing I bet most of you guys have not even seen GOKU at his best. sure in the very first episode he would probably get his butt kicked by iorn man. but later in the series he grows to become the most powerful being in the history of comics books and TV. I also understand that superman needs yellow solar energy, otherwise he would be completly normal. so all GOKU has to do is instant transmission superman to a planet the can’t be reached by sun light. and such planets do exiist. also, most of you say superman is the fastest hero, but dosent he need a kind of runing start before he reaches MAX speed, while GOKU is constanly moving at the speed of light at the very start of a fight and it looks like he never even started to move. and I don’t want anyone to think I’m bad mouthing superman, I’ve always respected superman, but bottom line GOKE beats superman and thor and any other hero you could think of.
What about He Man
You seem to be forgetting that Superman (Kal-El) has also evolved to have god like powers. In the DC edition 1 million he returns to earth after leaving it and gaining countless powers he then broke through the Source wall and studied under the Source itself. He can be anywhere at anytime, create life, resurrect the dead. He has limitless strength, he’s capable of lifting the Multiverse, he will outlive the Multiverse and live until the end of reality. He has the ability to warp reality.
So if it came to a battle between Goku and Superman Prime (Kal-El). Superman could just think Goku out of existence and he would be no more, and any other superhero or super villain for that matter.
Kryptonite!
Kryptonite doesn’t affect Superman Prime 1M. He has no weaknesses. He is also known as the Golden Superman.
Everyone seems to forget that Superman always held back. No one knows how strong he really is… Remember, he is strong enough to move planets so tell me something, has Goku, Thor or anyone else for that matter have the strength to move a planet out of orbit? We are not talking magical abilities, we are talking pure strength…. If Superman actually let himself go without holding back, you will be surprised how strong he really is so on that point, I believe the most powerful Super Hero is Superman.
Actually Goku had the power to destroy a planet as a child. Talk about holding back. He has never had a killing instinct and tries to talk attackers out of what they are doing. Preferring not to kill unless totally necessary. That’s as a child not a Super Saiyan 4. With Instant transmission, the ability to read minds if he wants and a list of other powers he rarely uses. And if you doubt his ability to destroy planets think back to Saiyan saga when Vegeta was going around blowing up planets just because he was bored or angry. The key to remember is at the end of the saga the dragon balls even became a part of him. LEaving him with even more power. When I first read this list Gokus name surprised me but when I tohught back about it I was like. Umm Yeah. Good point.
Bro. Thanos could fuck Goku up. Two words, infinity gauntlet.
dude thanos was fcked up by hulk in marvel zombies 2
I disagree with many parts of this list, but I also agree with many. I agree with Iron Man’s placement (because he is just a dude in a suit), but I disagree with some of the people above him. Also, aquaman should be last on the list, if on it at all. To choose one Atlantean over another, it’d be Namor hands down. As for all the back and forth about Superman, I’m just glad he isn’t first. Obviously he is highly ranked, he is all but a God, but this whole “we don’t know the extent of his powers” is bullshit. The companty does that so they never have to limit what he can do (like Batman’s shark repellent spray). I agree with Thor being top, and to say he should be left off the list because he is a God and TOO powerfull is completely ridiculous. The point of the list is power.
you guys should stop hating on superman, GOD, hes d leader of justice league. doesnt that mean something… thor is a god, so i personally wouldnt compare him to any1 on this lists…. he should be ranked with zeus and haedes and the rests. Whatever. you guys jugde based on the things they can do, but fyi strength isnt about the freakin things you can lift or what you can do with your abilties, its about the things your able to accomplish with those abilities. well im not here to spoil the fun, sure i like seeing heroes kick the shit outta other heroes but that not what we mean by real strength is it? I’m sorry but silver surfer is a beast of revenge. and seriously guys come on.. surfer was defeated by fantastic four, LOL….. dont compare him to super man….. i’ll probably rank super man or goku first. take thor out of that list. plzz
spider man shud be at least 5-1 because the only marvel character he hasnt killed was wolverine. but of course everyone seems to be able to b brought back. so heres my top 5 form marvel and d.c. seperately.
1:spiderman 2:wolverine 3:thor 4:hulk 5:deadpool (agent x )form
1:superman 2:batman 3:wonderwoman 4:dr.manhattan 5:greenlantern
What about Red She-Hulk?
ARE YOU RETARDED!! thor should not be ranked with zues! zues is the king of the galaxy all thor has is a really strong hammmer. zues stood up to his father and rescues his family! and what does thor do? thinks hes all mighty and risked all of his friends lives as well as his own.
fyi the Zeus only defeated his father because you had the help of his 2 brothers and furthermore Zeus couldn’t defeat Cronos without the thunder bolt Poseidon’s trident and hade’s pitchfork
Thor number 1……yes!
Namor maybe moved up…..Martian Manhunter, Green Lanter and Silver Surfer move up.
For those that think its all wrong, stand behind your character, have a huge battle royal, if your hero doesn’t defeat the one above him, YOU die. Still backing your hero.
Really? wolverine standing up to the dark phoenix?
Ok…wow…This list is ridiculous. Cpt. Marvel at # 24…seriously? Cpt. Marvel is considered almost as powerful as Superman, almost being Superman’s rival. Iron Man should definitely be higher than 22. Dr. Manhattan at 20? Someone must have been high when making this list. Dr. Manhattan can teleport to the planet Mars and turn a tank into a barbie doll, not to mention turn your whole body into dust. Phoenix at 19???!! Do you even know what Phoenix can do with her mind!? She should be in the top 2 at least next to Prof X! Spawn and Hulk are underestimated as hell in this list. Hulk is strong enough to take out Thor and Spawn has been traveled to Hell and back. Goku is strong.. but compared to other superheros he doesn’t stand a chance. Not just that but he is an anime. Flash should be in the top 5 at least. The top 10 is just *$%(ed up! Not to mention you are missing superheros. Superwoman is actually considered possibly even more powerful than Superman. This is list needs more though and definitely less drugs!
Spawn has traveled to Hell and back***
This list needs more thought and less drugs.*** Sorry I was going kinda fast when typing this.
Unfortunately for 3-4 days a month supergirl is unbearable to be around. Captain Marvel (yawn). Ironman…oh please, mr technology. All Superheros need supernatural powers, not just gimmicks. Gee might as well add batman.
i dont know what comics you read but the silver surfer is still powered by the power cosmic even when hes separated from his board, in the comic book cable and deadpool: the burnt offering, cable actually smashes the surfers board to pieces and the surfer bitch slaps cable to the ground and reforms his board from his own body. so being off his boaard doesnt matter, but lets also remember he is twice as powerfull when hes at the side of galactus, ohh yea the surfer can just teleport supermans panzy ass away from earth and its yellow sun and completely depower him if he wanted to.
Touchy, touchy…speaking of, if he wanted to? We know the capabilities of the silver surfer’s power, he probably can destroy anything and everything in it’s way…except maybe superman, because simply put, we do not know the extent of Superman’s power, and why because he holds back. If he does not want to be moved, he cannot be moved (battle with darkside). His only weakness is kryptonite, do you not understand this? Unless the silver surfer was packing kryptonite heat, there’s nothing his power can do to stop the man of steele! One small example of what we know he can do, Supes can make time go backwards not using a time machine, but flying around the earth in the opposite direction making the earth rotate the opposite direction to reverse time. Come on now, even you gotta give him props on that? The dude flew around the earth and reverse it’s rotation!!! And another thing, cable and deadpool, are you kidding?! Catwomen could bitch slap both those guys, and not using her whip.
didnt superman die from getting his ass beat by doomsday without kryptonite, and if you think that kryptonite is all that can hurt him, well one of the silver surfers most well known powers is to transmute the elements, BOOM he can turn superman into kryptonite if he wanted or could make it rain kryptonite from the sky or turn the entire world into kryptonite if he wanted, boom silver surfer wins always. ohh and cable and deadpool is a comic series where they have to call in the surfer to fight cable because he got rid of the TO virus and became godlike. and whatya know the surfer wins again.
They did it to sell comics duhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! That issue is still one of the best selling issues of Superman and comics in general. Everyone in the universe were flocking to the book stands (the surfer himself i’m sure) to find out, not why, but how? Only a kryptonian can kill a kryptonian, and just incase you didn’t know, (maybe you did) Doosday was kryptonian. Knowing this everyone is saying, (including the surefr)…”really?!…than I had no chance!” Let’s face it, the death of the Silver Surfer is not goona sell half the books the death of Supes did, and heres the kicker, everyone is not gonna ask how the surfer died, but why? After the death of Supes, he was written back to life, more powerful than ever, which they refer to as PC (Post-Crisis) Superman. He took a transformation that became pure energy (matter), the likes of Reed Richards, Professor X and all the great brains in the universe still do not know how it works. Here are some of Supes resume, He blew stars out of orbit with his super breathe, he closed the blackhole with his bare hands, he turned time back with his super speed…Dude, he flew around the planet in reverse to turn back time. If he did that to the surfer, well you’re not naive to the possibilities. Look I love the silver surfer, he is my top #5, but to beat Superman which hands down is my #1, the surfer has gotta get through #4, #3 and #2 first. Besides, you can’t go wrong with the Batman as a friend, which by the way is my #2.
wow, defending superman by the number of comics he sells, not a good tactic when talking about power, so you have no answer for the fact that the surfer can transmute anything into kryptonite an murder superman, ohh yea the silver surfer also doesnt need to do something stupid like spin the world back to travel through time, he just does, an can go anywhere in time and space he wants too. and your right the death of the silver surfer wich did happen btw, was not as big as superman because putting the silver surfer in danger just isnt realistic cause he would never get his ass beat by someone like doomsday. and doomsday isnt the same kryptonian as superman fyi, hes a cloned humanoid beast from krypton, so it wasnt another kryptonian like superman that beat him but a freakin kryptonian animal. for comparison perpose the silver surfer has faught former and current heralds of galactus many times and once again comes out on top. and to be honest, the surfers not even my fav hero, i just think this list is rediculas and saying superman is even in the top 5 is rediculas, wheres Odin Allfather, Adam Warlock, Capt Marvel, cable, ciara, drax, Mentor, firelord, vision, the scarlet witch………… there are so many higly highly powerful heroes that were left off this list, not too mention i think odin allfather, with the odin force should be stronger than thor who is number 1.
so what you say is that they killed superman and then brought him back to life NOT to sell comic books…the comic book stories keep getting more and more confusing,because the writers sadly run out of ideas…consider origins,no death and revival through energy or whatever..no ridiculous increase in power by some outrageous reason..if we stick with origins,the martian manhunter is stronger than superman from DC…from marvel im gonna still stick with the silver surfer..im a sucker for the annihilation series and his deeply philosophical cartoon series
Let’s get something straight, Superman wasn’t defeated by Doomsday. Superman Defeated him but in the process lost his life as well. Also if you know about the fight you should also know that Doomsday was also Kryptonian as well. He was created by Kryptonian scientist and the experience got out of hand so he couldn’t be killed there and was send to earth for disposal. So a Kryptonian (Superman)fighting a more powerful Kryptonian (Doomsday), Supes coming out on top says alot about his charactor and strength.
The silver surfer is boring to watch. Without that surf board he is weak. The fantastic four took it from him and they are nothing compaired to superman. Superman is exciting to watch, very powerful and is a superhero. A Superhero is something or someone that can save people. I can’t see the silver surfer catch a person falling from a building and at the same time catch a helicopter in the other hand. That is what a true hero. Didn’t silver surfer bring the death cloud to earth. Sounds like a villain.
I’m sorry but goku has them all beat. He has beatin strength, magic, cosmic powers, and everything else that can be thought of. I think goku would instant transmission next to any of the top 25 and rip their arms off then beat then to death with them. Goku could destroy a planet with the bat of as eyelash by them time he is super sayan 4. Bullets and sharp objects won’t penetrate his skin and his strength has no measure. His fighting skill is unsurpassed and if he were to ever actually get beatin up he would instant trans away and eat a Sinsu bean then come back all the stronger. You just can’t beat the greatest fighter in the universe. I love the silver surfer and I was disappointed they have Thor over him but I still think goku would whoop them both
Hulk is clearly the best. We’re talking about a man who beat thor, silver surfer, black bolt, sentry, onslaught and so many time warping bad ass mofo’s that it makes half you fuckers jizz your pants thinking about it. End of story.
Give me a break. Superman of now shits all over SS….i like him but really? Doesn’t the word Omnipotent-pressent-science mean anything to you love? Why even put Supes i a battle with him????????? Get a grip
Missed out the spectre from dc he is basically god
errmmm… pretty sure goku is not a superhero, he’s anime and he is terrible compared to evryone on the list.
Yahh!!! l been lookin 4 this answer 4 along time!!!! who is the most powerful superhero eva!!!!
l’d like to see a fight goku vs hulk!!!! silver surfer vs phoenix jean grey and thor vs thanos
and then the final against galactus
You know that Ghost Rider kicked Galactus’ ass in like 10 sec?
im pretty sure he counts as a super hero, dbz might not be the best example but it qualifies. goku saves people, saved the earth, hes a saiyan, hes stronger than any human…. now as far as being stronger than most marvel/dc characters he can be, but getting into god like superheroes with ridiculous abilities, he would probably lose simply because logic dictates you dont need to fight somebody to win against them, like golden superman? thats fucking ludicrous a thought can defeat your opponent how lazy is that, thats my problem with these god type characters, and some of them do fight but technically thor is a god so hes immortal right? on a basis or raw strength goku more than qualifies. hell not even taking mistic gohan into account.
I still think Superman(He revived the SUN once) should be on top of the list, as he’s considered the greatest even among Kryptonians & the way he always is in control of himself only afraid of losing control, see what happened when Super-boy Prime appeared, took on almost all of DC heroes to just hold him (Who Also Killed Superman Earth-2)
Superman number 1? Haha. He’s just a NORMAL man on his home planet, one with a red giant as a sun. His power is due ONLY to his being on a planet that has a yellow star, less gravity, giving him more power on THIS planet. Silver surfer has the exact same powers ANYWHERE in the universe. Worst case scenario, surfer would just pick superman up and carry him to another solar system where he is just another normal man with no powers. Sorry to peoples bubble by using pure logic, if logic can actually be used in science fiction.
Speaking of logic in the science fiction world (using only logic with what the comic writers gives us). Every superhero has a weakness and Superman has 2…first Green Kryptonite, and unless the silver surfer was the green kryptonite sufer, superman wins hands down. Second, his concious about life bad or good all over the universe (and thats his earth life upbringing, the Kents),
is the reason why no one dies on his watch, superman wins again. Side note, the silver surfers weakness is his board, which is also where his strength comes from, but without it he’s as strong as the strongest human on EARTH. Looks like a total wipeout dude. Just my opinion.
Fantastic four 2 was awful…completely disappointing..
Goku trained at 300 times earths gravity before he ever even became a super sayan.
Reed Richards with his enhanced Gamma Ray Brain is the smartest hero in the Universe and created the Ultimate Nullifier which collapses the Universe into itself. He basically punked Galactus with it. Not to mention he is the leader of the Fantastic Four who have continually defeated so called heroes and villains reputedly more powerful than themselves to including Silver Surfer, Namor, Thor, Hulk, Galactus, Hyperion (Superman) etc…..
Which since their transformation, He’s been trying to find a cure for Ben, which by your opinion…he should’ve by now?
Maybe he should ask the Batman.
nobody put the batman on the list…dude had a back up plan to incapacitate the JLA…how much more badass can you get
Hey…………….
In your Superhero u have left 1 the most powerful hero and that is
Hencock
Just check it
The one above all is not a hero but rather the creator and god of all their is, so its his decision if if a hero or villian wins so he’s not intrinsicly benevolent. And seriously thor isn’t the only hero to die and be ressurected, so was adam warlock, the surfer and many others, you could argue that the living tribunal is the most powerful “hero” because he sees to cosmic justice and is 2nd only to the one above all. The TOAA is responsible for as much bad as he is good
this list is garbage. do your research the Hulk KILLED Thor in Hulk VS Thor. Thor was then brought back to life, but he was dead for a time at the hands of Hulk. Also what about The One Above All? with is power to kill anything in anyway he wants ever without even a thought? he can end the entire universe by looking at it if he wanted, so im sure he could easily kill goku, superman or the hulk.
The Hulk is a brainless mutant whose vocabulary is limited to two words…HULK SMASH!…and gets stronger the angrier he gets, but the reason he gets angry is because he’s getting his butt kicked…by superman of course.
Goku is the most powerful by far, he turns into a demigod in the end of Dragon Ball GT so Thor isn’t most powerful than him
WHERE IR ULTRAMAN!?!??!?!?!?
NERDS!
First of all, this list is complete garbage, half of the heros shouldnt even be there and the other half are in the complete wrong order. Second of all, if youre going to have one of the sayans on there, it should be Broly. It took Goku and all the other sayans power to even have a slight chance against him.
this list is all wrong….wth??
ohh and one more thing, if your going to put “Goku” on this list than you should also be putting “Galen Marek” (Starkiller), cause he was the most powerful jedi or sith who ever lived and was pretty much able to do anything. and began the rebellion against the empire.
I do not know where u get your Star Wars info from, but starkiller is not even in the top 10, Darth Vader is #1 he was the chosen one to bring balance to the force by killing the emperor, the emperor comes back into the saga by cloning himself, Luke is force to go to the sith planet to kill him he almost becomes a sith, leaves with out killing him, the emperor sends Mara Jade a sith assassin to kill Luke almost did, they full in love get married have chidlern, I do not remember which of the Skywalkers becomes a powerful sith their kid or Hans Solo, the last time i read anything from Star Wars Legacy it was about 2 years ago Luke great grandson was avoiding his past and about 5 jedis were looking from him to rebuilt the Jedi order because the sith kick their ass again, no movie will ever explain this you have to read the comics or the books. The Star Wars you know or for most people know is when Luke was born, the Star Wars saga or Star Wars universe begins 4,000 years before the rise of the Galactic Empire and thats called the Knights of the old Republic alot more interesting the Star Wars A New Hope what most people know. I wrote this from memory but u can reference anythng I wrote @ Wookieepedia.com or if have u want to buy anything it has to be from Darkhorsecomics.com only because LucasArts makes sure that not just anyone can write and sale the Star Wasrs cannon. Sith do not rise from ashes of defeat like the movies will have u believe, u must start from the beginning to understand the truth.
Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me. This is the code of the Sith it is over 4500 years old before Luke.
May the Dark side of the force be with you.
Was trying to express the fact that super sayins and jedi should not be on this list because sayins power level have no upper limits and jedi and sith can be extremely powerful also, and we are talking comicbook superheroes, and I know at least that DragonballZ was a comicbook at one point. If your going to have goku on the list he should be number 1, but than you should also have vegetta cause he eventually becomes ss4 like goku.
The list is incorrect. Hulk can kick Thor’s a** anytime. Hulk is extremely powerful, and the most powerful among the “Avengers”. However, the only living thing who can challenge Hulk is probably Superman. Hulk doesn’t have any weakness, like Kryptonite though. But then again, Superman is practically invincible.
Superman is not invincible, he can be killed without kryptonite, i mean didnt Doomsday proove that one. The hulk does have a weakness, Ultron has been able to drain his gamma energy and make him revert back to Banner. Thor realy has no weakness just like the surfer. And honestly now that i think about it, Adam Warlock when he first came out of the cocoon he was called “HIM” and hes was pretty much invincibly all powerful and defeated the all powerful Thor to cort Lady Siff. Adam Warlock was created to be the evolutionary ultimate. and he did hold the Infinity Gauntlet for awile, wich truly made him “GOD”
Unless the Hulk was made of kryptonite…Superman wins hands down…end of destruction.
Batman defeated a lot of these “top 25″ Superman and Spawn just for two of the more powerful….I agree with Thor being number 1, Thor has the ability of the “Anti-Force” meaning whatever force is put upon him, he flips it back to them, meaning the Silver Surfer would only hurt himself…Not only that, Thor regenerates his limbs if lost, and can NOT be killed, he comes back to life…Thor also has unlimited strength…and wisdom. The only reason the Hulk beat Thor is because Thor did not fight him, he tried calming him down…just saying, Thor really wasn’t a great idea as a superhero, though stan lee did seem to weaken his powers a fuzz from the god….Oh and don’t forget Superman is not so good against magic…He’s VERY vulnerable against magic.
I dont know everything about thor so interested to hear about the antiforce. the surfer absorbs energy to suit his needs weather it be to transmute or disperse energy…ect, cause on a side note the surfer in all the stories allows finds new uses and ways to use the power cosmic. so you said that thor could just turn his energy against the surfer, i wonder if the surfer could draw energy from mjolnir and use the antiforce against thor, cool concept huh, so think thor and the surfer need to battle for the top spot cause i agree thor should be either 1 or 2 and the same for the surfer, also the silver surfer can regenerate his body and almost nothing can even hurt his body, he was also never reserected through some cosmic or magical means, he lived a long and hard and amazing life soaring the spaceways, until he finally let himself pass away.
I notice that a lot of people are talking about Superman weakness. FYI he has none as Superman Prime 1millon. He is omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscience. Please people do your homework before talking or at least google research. Geez
The silver surfer also draws his energy from stars and just about any other source of cosmic energy, also the surfer learns new depths to the “power cosmic” almost every comic, also the surfer is even more superpowered when he’s the current herld to galactus, and, once again, Eternity has imbued the surfer with the unipower wich kinda makes him the protector of reality, superman hasn’t got shit on the surfer, the surfer could just draw out any solar energy superman asborbs and than absorb the entire sun if he wants to, and become like he was in the infinity crusade when he destroyed paradise omega. also Galactus, on more than one occasion has entrusted the surfer with all of his remaining power cosmic, wich made the surfer powerful beyond belief. I don’t know if superman heals others with his power, but with the power cosmic the surfer can heal, he can giv people powers, screw with poeples current powers, convert all matter and energy to suit his needs, there’s almost no limitation to the power cosmic, wich is why most stories with the surfer involve cosmic beings and universal threats, cause the surfer is almost never in danger, cause his is the “power cosmic”. I also think Cable deserves to be on this list somewhere, he is the mutant evelutionary ultimate after all.
what about the Watcher
The “Silver Surfer” has had the “unipower”, so he’s almost been the most powerful, but also the “Pheonix” feeds on stars and her hunger is never satisfied, so it can grow to the point of feeding on galexies and maybe universes, also hasn’t “Adam Warlock” like destroyed whole timelines, was the center and leader of the universe within the soulgem and held the infinity gauntlet untill Eternity brought him before the living tribunal to surrender his omnipotance and the infinity gems. And isn’t “Thanos” a good guy now and not only destroyed the cancerverse, he became above the living tribunal when he held the “heart of the universe” and sacrificed himself to remake the universe minus its emminent, ultimate destruction. So all in all “Thanos” saved and remade the entire universe,(also wile he was bad, he usurped Eternities role as the center of all that is twice. Once with the cosmic cube and again with the infinity gauntlet)
[discussion followed from Marvel vs DC]
Superman rules as No.1.
He power is drawn from the sun which is infinite power + all his skills are further enhanced to that level of being incomprehenible on power levels.
Plus as stated many times he hasnt fully explored his limitations as when he explores other universes his power is amped due to different sun systems.
Surfer should be 2nd and Thor 3rd.
Hulk is a brute and could easily be outsmarted.
This a hell of a wishlist. I have a friend @work who loves Thor anything since he was a kid, he claims he has a comicbook where the Hulk kills Thor but than Thor comes back to life because Thor hammer is what gives power to the one who can pick it up.
I hate to tell you but they made a movie where hulk beats Thor it’s called hulk vs thor
superman is first !!!!
to have goku as number 2 is pretty stupid because everyone of these heros powers would stay the same and goku’s just keeps growing the more he fights you could put him to just super sayian 1 and im pretty sure he would wipe out any one of them…
Where is Popeye?
dude are u serious? hulk is way better than thor and superman…i think 1.goku 2.hulk.3 superman AND SERIOUSLY AQUAMAN????
Batman anyone?
I don’t see blossom, buttercup, and bubbles is in the list lol. where are the powerpuff girls?
Thor has been shown to lose to the Hulk on many occasions. If Hulk is not even within the top 10, then by that logic, why the hell is Thor #1?
I mostly not agreeing about this classification .. and the ones who say that superman must be on the top of the list I’m sure they don’t know who Goku is .. and so are who say that Gohan is stronger than Goku .. on the other hand I Think Vegito Super saiyan 4 is the strongest Warrior ever and no one even ten SuperMan can ever defeat him . I may say that goku Super Saiyan 5 who had appeared on the Lost Saga of dragon ball Gt ( he appeared as if he could destroy the whole Galaxy with No Mercy or compassion after he turned into a super Saiyan 5 even himself couldn’t control over this hugely bunch of Powerhouse so he turned into an evil soul that destroys everything even his friends and he destroyed the earth effortlessly with one finger and his speed was more than one million Km\s when he Traveled through the Instant Transmission in order to destroy some more Galaxies ) and I guess if Dragon ball Kept Continuing there will be some even more powerful Warriors than Goku Super Saiyan 5 as if Vegeta Managed to become Super saiyan 5 too so they can fuse and compose Vegito super saiyan 5 imagine how Epic could that be
.. btw the classified Goku on this list appears to be super saiyan 3 as you know who’s the last Form of the first category that only Includes the Blonde Hairy Transformations
Dragon Ball Z is a cartoon that Superman loves to watch on tivo when he has a little spare time.
Goku? Dragonball Z??? What a hack, what a sloppy and poorly placed character. He belongs on VHS tapes underneath your bed. Where is Goku now? Is there a movie being made after him???
Look!! Superman would slap these Japanese martial arts Muppets around the known universe. When Superman was created he had unlimited strength and speed,plus a load of other super powers, he could even toss black holes around like bowling balls. So as far as Goku and Gohan even making Superman flinch!! I think you need to get a reality check. And as far as having Thor as Number 1??? What planet are you from, even the Hulk gave Thor a hiding a few times and Superman gave the Hulk a beating twice!!
Some commentators on this list aren’t very bright. First of all we are talking about superheroes, not super villans and supreme beings like TOAA and the living tribunal.
Also the retard that said captain america, spiderman, and batman doesnt know anything about marvel.
how is spawn not higher he dethroned god and the devil i dont think any other hero can do that.
I don’t know GOKU, I have seen the Hulk kick Thor’s ass plenty of times. And DC and Marvel shouldn’t be compared. DC just has some weird stuff. Also, Iron Man is not really that badass. I agree with Silver Surfer..but where is Galactus?
Of course Superman should be number 1. Know, I know you’re all about to say “Superman fanboy blah blah blah”. However, if you look at some of the other versions of Superman such as Superman Prime 1 Million, or just prime or 1 million, they are way stronger then all of these guys combined. I mean… good thoughts and all but Superman Prime 1 Million is THE STRONGEST being to ever exist, imagine ordinary Superman boosted up x1 Trillion, Kryptonite doesn’t even affect him anymore…
Ok wth? Dr. Manhattan should be 1 thor is not even close to how strong pre crysis superman is ( he can bench 200 quillion tons) thats enough to rip earth in half and according to equations on kinetic energy the flash should be able to conjure up an infinite mass punch. The flash should have the reaction time of god knows what considering he can see, and maneuvere while running at the speed of light (silver surfer never hit a 90 degree turn while going light speed) the flash should technically be inviciable considering running faster or as fast as light should turn you into energy. The list should have Dr manhattan at 1 superman at 2 flash at 3 although i think a punch from the flash should send u around the planet a few times and if ur not durable u should be turned into energy.
caleb couldnt have said it better myself
¡VEGGETO CAN DESTROY ONE GALAXY! ¡Vegetto is the most powerfull! And goku? Gohan is more powerful than Goku!
what about johnny storm??
Just throw water on him, discussion over.
dr manhattan at 20 because he’s APATHETIC? im sorry, i thought this was ‘most powerful’ list, and not ‘most likely to DO something powerful’ list. Dr Manhattan doesn’t kick ass; he disintegrates asses and turns them into hydrogen atoms!
And this ‘Thor at no.1′ thing is really getting to me. i have checked over 20 other lists like this and nearly ALL of them put Thor at no.1! dr manhattan is way more powerful than thor.
I think they should re-label this list ‘most DANGEROUS comic characters’. But then they’d still be wrong, because Batman and Rorschach aren’t on here.
Dr. Manhattan and Thor would actually be 2 forces to be reckoned with. That would be an awesome match. Hard to tell, I wouldn’t exactly count out Thor so quickly though. Dr. Manhattan is obviously VERY powerful but so is THOR! Thor is a GOD. I’m not saying that Thor would win for sure, but to count him out so quickly is completely ridiculous and also a complete underestimation.
i believe strongest one is chuck noris.
all this list shows is complete ignorance of comic book characters. half of the characters on this list dont belong here.
goku? really? then why not trunks and vegeta and gohan and various other chars from the dragonball? they all have ridiculous “power levels”
dr manhattan, as strong as he is, can hardly be called a superhero, exactly because of that apathy you speak of. superheros do..well, heroic stuff. dr manhattan, as you said, simply doesnt care. same goes for the bolt – incredibly powerful? yes. but the bolt is afraid to use his power, and thus almost never does.
lobo, as strong as he is, is hardly a superhero. the phoenix that destroyed so much was the dark phoenix, hardly a superhero herself. thanos is also not a superhero, and wiping out half the universe was the infinity gauntlet, not him.
and seriously, out of all the characters, you leave out batman? the one superhero who is almost always the one who has to do something when the others get possessed or controlled or whatever? hell, superman gave batman a kryptonite bullet incase superman ever goes crazy.
i could go on and on about how terrible this list is, but ive wasted enough time. enjoy.
Terrible list. Surfer could destabilize Superman, Goku, or Thor into mere atoms. Ghost Rider took out Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man single-handedly, and he isn’t even listed.
Toaa =the one above all is basically Stan lee and some other comic writer he is all powerfull. That said thanos With the infinity gautlet or just about anyone with the infinity gautlet has my vote as 2 FYI dr manhattan is god like he controls matter at not only an atomic level but also at a subatomic level think of magneto he can only control metal dr manhattan can control just about every thing cus everything we see is matter he makes people explode and not just regular people superheros too why? Because even superheros r made of matter
Get off Goku’s sack. He cannot beat Superman, Thor, or Silver Surfer. Someone on this list said Superman is not fast enough to hit Goku??? Superman ran a foot race against Flash, and was a few steps behind! Superman survives black holes, and being “sun dipped”. As far as fast Silver Surfer once left the Marvel Christmas party, and had been to the “end of the universe” befor the comic ended. He also has been to THE CRUNCH during Annialation. Silver Surfer makes Goku look like a SLOW CHILD!! How does Goku ever hurt him. Also, TOAA is pretty much GOD! The Living Tribunal, who stopped the Infinity Guantlet from working, with a thought, bows before TOAA! No way ANY of the DBZ guys touch Surfer, unless he slows down long enough to let them. Oh yeah, by the way, Galactus EATS PLANETS, and Ghost Rider, where is he? So you destory his mortal form, and you get STOMPED by Zarathos. You guys really need to read some comics, Silver Surfer defeated the Elders of the Universe, and smashed through vibrainum walls, he flew throught the heart of the sun, and in the crossover with Green Lantern HE TOOK IN THE POWER OF THE OAN BATTERY. WAIT I’LL SAY THAT AGAIN, HE TRMPORARILY ABSORBED THE OAN BATTERY!!!! For the real comic fans, that understand what a HUGE FEAT that is, you should know there are not many feats that top that. He has wins over Thanos! Jeez, Goku stands NO chance against someone like that, and those that thinks he does, are IGNORANT.
What do you mean that the silver surfer is too fast for goku? Goku could easily catch him in a race around the galaxy just by simply using “Instant Transmission” as he calls it in dbz.
lobo still kick all asses, whatever their powers. hes kicked the shite out of all gods, and can never be accepted in any after life. the main man just cant die, always no. 1!
I know its realy not a super hero but when someone is granted the “Uni-Power” by Eternity that person becomes captain universe wich is the guardian of Eternity and Infinity wich is the defender of the entire space-time continuum wich only happens in the event of a threat to all universes. Who can be more powerful than that realy?
Just wanted to personally say how incredibly impressed I was reading your perspective & understanding of what are truly some of the most epic comic events imagined from the Infinity Gauntlet Series.Personally I thought they were some of the most seriously profound concepts imagined and most difficult for the average comic reader to understand.What about Molecule Man at the end of the Secret Wars Series? Adam Warlock,Magus,The Living Tribune,The Watcher,Thanos,Eternity,Dr.Strange,The”In Betweener”,The”One Above All” is Stan Lee Himself actually ,it was mentioned to Thor by Odin to be the principle of the school while all the other gods were just the bullies on the play ground, anyway liked your knowledge and perspective Jess.Well be safe and take care!
i agree what about hancock he can only be killed if his lovely ex was around and we all know she not going nar him and if u ask me iron man should be alot higher on the list than what he is he nver stops improving and will always find away to beat u
thor no.1 my arse, you talk of antiheroes, there is no one in the known universe who can kick lobo’s ass. the last czarnian, the main man!
dc vs marvel…wolverine kicked his ass
This list is garbage…..i see sooo many people being left off this list…what about spiderman, batman, captain america! This list is bogus…who ever wrote this obviously knows nothing of comic characters and superheros. !
thanos killed half the universe with a snapp of his finger i vote thanos or doc manhattan as number 1
what about oaa or thanos
Dr. Manhattan at number 20?? Ummm thats a bit crazy… seeing as he can pretty much, like you said, annihilate the universe by thinking about it… He decides to go make life because he learns the importance of it. And his weakness… he doesn’t have one that is known. You are correct if you said, his closest thing to a weakness is tachyons… but all you can do is shield his view of the past and future of time, forcing him to see only the present time. He can still turn your face into lemonade if he wanted to regardless of how many tachyons you throw at him.
Forgot to add this… with this in mind I’m pretty sure most of us would agree that Doc Manhattan and Phoenix should #1 and #2 without question… both of them can kill any person on this list without any effort at all…
Fanboy? Hardly need to be one. Phoenix is not spelled Pheonix for one, whether it is the mythical bird or the superheroin. Goku is the only manga character in this list, what about all the others from Dragonball? Some of them can destroy planets. Oh and Phoenix (again) casually decimated an entire solar system.
This kind of list should at least be made by a fanboy of sorts, not by someone who barely knows about the subject…
Isn’t making quality lists the goal of this website? What is it then? Randomly putting 25 items together and trying to find the link between them to name the list? Ridiculous, really.
Thats right completely ignore, Magneto, Loki, The Mask, Lobo… Phoenix @ 19 LOL
what about Hancock ?
Uh…Phoenix would destroy half the people on the list higher than her without any effort.
Squirrel Girl is the most powerful non-cosmic in the marvel universe, as listed by marvel themselves.
What about Spiderman?
The greatest human superhero of all times…KICKASS! Simply put, because he kicks ass.
I hate to poo on this interesting list but the creator of said list needed to define “most powerful” before starting it. If I were going to make a true list I would first list weaknesses and sources of power including duration and needed circumstantial bonuses. For example if Superman gets his power from the sun anyone who could eliminate the sun would be a problem. If kryptonite is considered a killer of superman then this again should be a weekness. Anyone that can be mentally controlled or pacified ie: KOed along with a weakness that can end them should not hold high rankings. Another consideration should be morality if a superhero is told to go away or innocents will die (he should be considered defeated) we
May not like it but superhero’s with morality can be coerced. Therefore the most powerful superhero should be one who is ambivilant, immune to physical and mental damage/manipulation and generates their own power with no need of external sources. After that the last thing to consider is if they would be able to kill or detain the other supers and how hard it would be. You could use difficulty as a way to assign rank of greatness. By difficulty I mean how hard it is for the most powerful to take them out. Keeping in mind however that the most powerful has to be all of the supers above them on the list.
It’s important to stay true to the claim which is (who is the most powerful) not who is the coolest, greatest, strongest, etc. Most powerful in an of itself is an assumption that power = able to defeat all others under any circumstance.
Another thing getting people tied up is the use of the term God/Demi-God etc. these terms should be ignored. A human is a God to a dog but a dog can kill a human.
I would also exclude all things that require eating, breathing, drinking, or regulated body temp for survival (at least from the top ten, if not the entire list). Also to be fair I would include all supers (villian’s and hero’s). Afterall if the most powerful is a villan they too deserve some recognition.
Wow B, you made the most logical post. So who would be on your Top 5?
I was thinking the exact same thing!
