So, what's different about Kingdom come?

[kainboa]

He's more powerful, and more ruthless.

[Guest sithisson]

Sounds like the more ruthless one should have this right? The terrain doesn't even get a chance here as it does nothing to give either an advantage really.

[Guest bigballerju]

He's more powerful, and more ruthless.

 

 We would be going with new 52 Superman who I could see winning and he has no problem cutting loose. As a matter of fact he does it way more then pre-Flashpoint. He is powerful enough to put him down. One punch to Hel shook the entire Earth and could be felt all the way up in space by the JLA in their headquarters.

[Guest Magnetrex]

Kingdom Come Superman is far more powerful, stronger, and wiser than his alternate younger counterpart. Not to mention that, at his age, he is immune to Kryptonite.

[Guest potterpuppetpals]

Wasn't there a comic where Superman and Kingdom Come Superman fought the DC version of Hercules? If so, didn't Superman get his ass handed to Hercules just before Kingdom Come Superman beat Herc with like one hand?

[Guest badpierce]

I thought that was earth two superman but I'm not sure ether way it wasn't new 52 superman.

[Guest Red_Dragon]

How would people compare 90s superman with the bronze age superman?

 

The Kingdom Come graphic novel was published in 1996 which makes him a stronger version of that Superman. People have put the New 52 Superman at the level of Bronze Age Superman so a comparison of the two more shown versions could give a rough comparison in power.

 

For the record, I want to go with Kingdom Come Superman. The fact that he has absorbed enough sunlight to make him immune to kryptonite has to make him one of the most powerful incarnations.

[leroypowell3]

You've conivinced me of Kingdome Come Superman.

[Guest bigballerju]

I think new 52 with his power boost could beat Kingdom Come Superman or at least give him a run for his money. Power wise they have to be close now. Speed is up in the air. We know new 52 Superman already went FTL but Kingdom Come Superman was fast to catch up to Flash so he may be faster still when Flash kept running. Hmm I have to look over Kingdom Superman again to compare him now to new 52 Superman. Maybe people are right. Maybe not. I don't know at the moment.

[Indolent]

Kingdom Come Superman thrashes his younger counterpart rather easily.
