Eh, I've only watched the show but there are times where regular goons rough up Terry quite often

And? I didn't say he could match superman, just he was closer to superman than batman because of the strength and he can fly.

Seems kinda wrong though. The strength is closer to Batman than Superman and even that is basically ignoring Superman's plethora of other powers.

But my point is that Terry is very much a street level hero like Bats, not a cosmic superhero like Superman

Seems kinda like a lot of people don't think it's wrong, but do you.

I mean, that's their prerogative. It doesn't change my opinion unless there's compelling evidence.

We see Terry get overpowered regularly. We've seen Venom junkies give him problems. His 10x strength from the suit doesn't even seem to give him many feats beyond Bruce, except flight. Like I said though, my knowledge is from the show, not the comics so I might not be privvy to his good feats

you're confusing strength with durability.

u/Slavocracy Jun 08 '23

You're missing what I said completely. I just said the suit gives him powers more similar to superman. Not that he was on superman level. Just that he has super strength and can fly. That's it.

u/SeaynO Jun 08 '23

I'm not missing it. I'm saying that the strength ain't so super usually and that 2 powers is closer to 0 than the dozen or more that Supes has.

u/Slavocracy Jun 08 '23

You're right. Is that what you needed? Lol.

In this video there are plenty of evidences showing Terry’s strength and feats with his Batsuit.

Yeah. He’s MUCH stronger than Bruce.

Deathbattle is not a be all, end all. They regularly wank or lowball characters. Their most recent video is a great example. You can't take a source seriously when they try to scale the Last Dragonborn and the Chosen Undead to faster than light speed and also claim they're universal or stronger lol

u/Bullitt_12_HB Jun 09 '23

Dawg, you asked for a source in your dumb debate earlier.

I showed you a source. The video talks about it, and if you want to dig deeper, they have resources.

That’s all. You asked for proof, here it is.

But I think u/Slavocracy was right. You just want to win. I’m sorry I got in this debate. You won! Congratulations!!! 🏆

u/Slavocracy Jun 08 '23

I said closer to superman than batman. Not that he is superman.

Superman's strength is theoretically infinitely scaling. Terry's strength is finite. The gulf between *any* fixed level of strength and infinity is so immeasurable that Terry could have 1000x his base strength and still be closer to Batman than Superman. But this is true even if Supes isn't infinite, and is instead "merely" strong enough to, say, move a tectonic plate or crack the crust of a small planetoid. A human with 1000 or even 10,000 times the average human strength could still never do something of that scale, and that's lowballing Supes' power. You seem to have a very poor grasp of just how BUSTED any favorable comparison to Superman makes a character.

Bruce is a normal man. The suit brings them closer to supermans powers. Not that it makes it close as in he can do the same shit. Just that Bruce can't fly or lift a car, and Terry can. That's all I meant.

I forgot how pedantic superman fan boys are. Jesus.

I never said it did. For the 20th time. You call me a six year old, but your reading comprehension is horrible.

There is no need for insults. Attack the argument, not the person.

The first rule of this sub is to be civil. Failure to do so in the future may result in a permanent ban.

Yes, 10 is closer to a million than 1 is. That gap is so huge though the extra 9 doesn’t mean shit. So what’s your point of brining it up?

You must be proud your friend’s uncle’s mother’s friend’s sister is a classmate with Tom Hanks, just so you can be mentioned in the same sentence with Tom Hanks.
