>>220781476ain't supes weak to magic?
I'm stuff
>>220781489*laughs* /tv/, your girlfriend is awesome
>>220781486his only weakness is kryptonite, that's kinda the whole point of the characterin most media they need to tone down his canonical powers because it would be too boring with them since everyone except other kryptonians would job to him so fast
>>220781673Can’t mages just conjure kryptonite
>>220781684Probably He also has a little magic man that can fuck with him and he has to make him say his name backwards to make him go awayComics are fucking stupid man
>>220781494why are you so red
>>220781693AIDS
>>220781476If Thanos was worried there was too many people why didn't he simply shrink everyone so they would take up half the amount of space?
>>220781724He could’ve just doubled or tripled the universe with the stones
>>220781684everything's possible in comics thoughbeit
Supersars...
>>220781486>ain't supes weak to magic?Yes>>220781691>Probably >He also has a little magic man that can fuck with him and he has to make him say his name backwards to make him go awayMister Kltpzyxm
>>220781476This is why superman is the dumbest concept for a character and why all superman movies suck. He's like 1 step short of fucking god. There can't be any real tension in a story where he's present because he's just going to punch the villain into the sun or something and walk away unscathed. Notice how in the Justice League movie, it ends like 10 minutes after Superman shows up? The entire movie was just them trying to find a way to bring superman back and as soon as they did, the movie was over because superman is OP.
>>220781757Wanda: no more gay sex.Both die
>>220781757Okay gang. THIS is epic.
>>220781789his morals are his weakness, but fucking christ does that get really old really fast
why do pieces of his own planet make him weak? shouldn't it make him stronger?
Superman should lose his powers at night.
>>220781701>>220781684AIDS MAGES?!?
>>220781486No. A lot of people get it confused. He isn’t weak to magic, but he is vulnerable to magic. Here’s an example to illustrate the distinction. If a wizard summons a fireball to launch at Superman, then the fireball would be ineffective because Superman is already resistant to fire. All the wizard is doing is summoning the fire, it is not imbued with magical properties. However, if the wizard summoned some sort of hellfire that targeted Superman’s soul, then that would be effective because Superman has no resistances to such an attack. I remember seeing the Death Battle Goku vs Superman as a kid and the creators there getting it confused. The Power Pole would not hurt Superman simply because it is magic. However, Superman, despite his immense strength, would probably be incapable of using raw power to keep the Power Pole at the same length if it was activated because it expands by means of magic.
>>220781885>because it expands by means of magicJust like my penis haha
>>220781486>ain't supes weak to magic?Never understood this. Isnt everything weak to magic?
>>220781757why does vegeta say he's gonna go for the left when he's clearly on the right side?
>>220781885>yada yada yada He's weak to magic fire as you just explained.
>>220781949the image is flipped
>>220781476
>>220781951I just wanted to clarify magic does not act as a debuff to Superman, I see this assumption all the time.
Thor, Hulk, and Captain Marvel are as strong as superman and they jobbed to Thanos
>>220781673He's also weak to red sunlight and he has no special resistance against magic, which basically means he is weak to magic. Kryptonite is not his only weakness. Unless what you meant here is that those other weaknesses aren't canon and are just tacked on in various media, but I'm pretty sure they count as canon at this point.
>>220781983kek
>>220781998It depends on the magic, as you stated. If the magic is just being used to create normal physical shit like fire, that's not going to do anything. If it is instead magic that has nothing to do with supes physical toughness, or some kind of reality-altering, it absolutely is a weakness to him.So the answer is that supes IS weak to magic, he's just not weak to anything and everything created by magic.
>>220782033
>>220781486It can affect him like any other person that doesn't have a specialized resistance to it. If a wizard cast a spell to turn him into a rabbit it not going to bounce right off him like bullets or lasers.>>220781927People just assume that since superman is near invulnerable that nothing can harm him. He has no natural immunity or resistance to magic. Although there are comic book characters who are known to be immune to magic.
>>220781815>why does graphite from chernobyl burn the firefighter's hand? shouldn't it make him stronger?
>>220782004>>220781673kryptonite shares the same wavelength as magic in the dc universe which is why he's weak to magic
>>220781684Can't mages just conjure a Superman that's not immune to kryptonite
>>220782106You can’t conjure a living soul
>>220782033it doesn't make sense.there's surely illegal porn with 13 year girls, but I wouldn't call them "pornstars"
>>220782033Fucking hell, lmao.
>>220782130>he doesn't know
>>220781789He's the greatest and most interesting concept of a 'superhero'; it's just that visual media has not really potrayed him in any interesting story. Man of Steel was trying to grapple the character's core values, in a way successfully too (since there is no Superman in that movie), but many fail to see that the "perfect" character has so much potential.He is of Justice, Truth and American Way. Every moment there is someone out there needing help, he is making a decision every moment to *not* help. Some day his father will die too, and he cant save him from it (this was one of the many points of MoS many also miss).What kind of person will be left of all this? Especially someone who is so 'just' and polished Boy Scout imago and mentality?But no Superman punch hard and listen to soft-rock in flanel.t. screenwriter
>>220782033wow... just wow
>>220781486thanos is weak to having his head pulled through his asshole at lightspeed
>>220781962why is that dude not watching?
>>220781927Yeah, that's the fucking point, numbnuts.
>>220781806His morals are his strength, his morals are why he isn't homelander
>>220782165>this was one of the many points of MoS many also missHaving pa Kent die of something mundane like a heart attack better conveys that superman isn't omnipotent and that despite being a superhero he can't save everyone. In MoS his father just fucks off into the hurricane to help the dog and then just kind of gives up in some wierd attempt at giving him an honorable and heroic death, which thematically undermines the point. Snyder is a fucking hack
>>220781949He meant their left
>>220781673No, he's also weak to red sun radiation and magic, and Lois getting kidnapped. He's not particularly weak against magic, he's just as vulnerable as anyone else.
>>220781476>murderman murders without giving a fuck about it even in pro snydershit memekekcan't make that shit up
>>220782130/tv/ is truly the dumbest board
>>220782642>he's also weak to red sun radiation and magicAlso being punched hard.
>>220782033Ok, that's a good one
>>220781949because he's an angry midget contrarian
>>220781789>Notice how in the Justice League movie, it ends like 10 minutes after Superman shows up?That's not Justice League / Superman = Bad. That's Snyder = Bad
>>220782165>Man of Steel was trying to grapple the character's core values, in a way successfully tooStopped reading there.>>220782542All this
>>220782747Yeah and getting raped by Lobo.
>>220783301>by LoboAlso Russians.
>>220782542>didnt understand the scenesad
>>220783371>"I'm very intellectual for liking a retard committing suicide into a cgi-nado for no reason at all. Didn't you appreciate the lack of themes and the complete retardation on top of missing the point of the character and the scene? uhuhuhuhhuhu"
>>220781892last panel needs to be redder
>>220782291because he's a painting
>>220782033>posting a webm with censored captions Kill yourself
>>220784172I didn't write the captionsYou dumb fuck
>>220782036He's no more weak to it than you and me. He's just as vulnerable to it as anyone else is. It's not like kryptonite where it's a direct weakness, he just has no resistance/weakness to magic, he gets affected by it normally.
>>220784200your entire personality is normie
>>220781684>conjuring kryptonite>conjuring star destroyers.
>>220784235cry about it, bitch boy who can't read censored captions
>>220782291why are there two paintings?
>>220784320double the faith
>>220781476>you like Kentucky? >I love it
>>220782165>most interesting concept of a 'superhero'he really isnt. his power level is too high and his weaknesses are fake. there are no real stakes. >literally fast enough to thousands of miles per second>strong enough to move continents/planets worth of mass>physically impervious. >laser eyes>x-ray eyes>super hearing>can literally just revive if he sleeps long enoughwith speed and invulnerability like that, all of his weaknesses are fake. even if proximity to kryptonite weakens him, theres no reason he couldnt blast into the area from far away and knock the kryptonite miles away. even if he had to "break" his hand doing it, he would easily succeed. he could throw a rod from out of range and knock it away. there are a variety of solutions. all of his "fights" arent at full strength and only exist for spectacle and "tension". no matter what his moral limits are, none of the villains pose a real threat to him. he is literally never in danger.
>>220781927not BLACK ADAMS
>>220784781This is a good point People forget that infallability is very simple. Anybody can be infallible so long as their fast and strong enough
>>220784781Back in the day they'd usually tell stories about him facing problems that couldn't just be punched and which posed no threat to him personally (he BTFO the Klan and crooked property developers and foreign despots in the early days), and then kryptonite was this extra element in some of the stories where they wanted to tell more conventional 'heroic' stories (in the classical sense). Comics had this solid baseline of the kind of world they portrayed and the kind of characters that were in them, and then in the 80s and 90s this provided fertile ground for deconstruction. But then the deconstruction became the baseline. The current 'Joker' kind of sucks mainly because there is no baseline of him pulling pranks and forcing others into unwanted boners, only for him to pull out a gun or a knife when shit got real in the deconstruction.
>>220781852NOBODIES GOT AIDS! AND I DONT WANNA HEAR THAT WORD IN HERE AGAIN!
>>220782036Has Superman been shown to be powerless to transformation magic compared to Vegito continuing to beat down Buu after being turned into a piece of candy?
Times you acted like a lion?
>>220781757i love how it's obvious that a young teenager made this, probably Mexican too
>>220781486His powers are mostly psionic based meaning if he knows how to deal with it his telekinesis and teletactile natural abilities stop it, once he learns it he can fight it off and if it’s some extra dimensional shit he has problems >>220781673Sound, krypronite, red sun radiation,
>>220783727Now you're just making a hay man while flanderizing your own critique by choosing to misinterpret my argument AND the scene. I am just trying to have a discussion.>>220784781But every 'power level' is only as strong as the writer. In a way every superhero is 'too high' for every single situation they are dropped in. Superman is unique. His weaknesses are there but they're never explored as i stated.You're literally the reason why he is written badly; you think he is just the 'powers' but don't see the unique dilemma he proposes. How is he still embodying the boy scout attitude? Why is he not wavering? How does he live with his choices every day - every moment he chooses to save one life over another. His weakness is also himself.t. screenwriter
>>220781949It's a battle tactic to confuse the enemy. You never read sun tuh zoo?
>>220784006
>>220782160
>>220781792You want her to sacrifice her imaginary sons again?
>>220781885>Be superhuman>something affects you the same way it does anything else, if you had a magic bullet and it kills superman he was weak to it.Thats a weaknessVulnerable to means weak to.
>>220782291he saw this already
>>220782258Underrated. need it or keep it?
>>220781983
>>220781757>too much of their bones
>>220781486Yeah he loses to MLP LMAO
>>220790580He can break all of their bones but not break them too much
>>220781673Why is he even allergic to his home planet anyway
>>220781757
>>220791710jews
>>220782101Why wouldn't he be affected by magic no matter what. In universe it has physical properties of some kind. He's still made of matter isn't he. Like Zatanna could in theory teleport him directly into a black hole or into a red sun. Trigon could drag him into hell or something. Why would be be immune to curses and whatnot?
>>220782291he busy doing important things like playing dota 2
>>220791782lmao this actually got me
>>220788403Lol
>>220791953I was wondering why zoomer memes all look like that. They are still using dial-up.
