Batman is just human, out of the question he sucks.

Dr. Manhattan has to be the strongest.. not Goku..

I don't get why so many people are mentioning Dr. Manhattan as the strongest superhero. He would get smoked by a ton of superheroes from both Marvel and DC.

how exactly? he's like indistructable and can do anything. Ofc, Flash and Hulk are totally OP and broken but without the possibility to go in outter space, i ll remain with Dr. Manhatten.

Dr. Manhattan is nowhere near omnipotent. The Silver Surfer alone would wreck him.


How do you wreck Dr. Manhattan when he is immortal and most powerful being in the universe. The worst that he can do is a draw.

I still cant beleive Goku is winning the poll

They aren't a part of the same universe. Manhattan is part of the DC/Vertigo universe and the Silver surfer is part of the marvel universe.

I'd say that the silver surfer is more powerful as Dr. Manhattans is bound to the physical universe and the laws of relativity (The silver surfer can accelerate to faster than light speed).

Dr. Manhattan could possibly disintegrate the silver surfer with a touch, but the silver surfer could absorb Dr. Manhattan indefinitely. It's all about who gets the first shot

There are of course vastly more powerful beings than those two.

VoirDire, your list is very incomplete - there are many more characters and levels than those you listed. I would advise you to take a look at the rankings ComicVine compiled for both Marvel and DC, they are quite well done (although one can always argue about the specifics).

Could you provide a link to the rankings?

Marvel
DC

Neither ranking is the definitive version since changes have been made to both to make them more accurate, but I haven't been able to find the best versions yet. Still, these two are useful to get a good picture of the various power levels.

edit: for example, the beginning of the ranking for Marvel should probably look more like this:

+ Show Spoiler +
Tier 1 : 1st Class Beyond
The One-Above-All
Pre-Retcon Beyonder
Thanos with the Heart of the Universe
Protege
Pre-Retcon Molecule Man
Living Tribunal

Tier 2 : 2nd Class Beyond

Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet
Nebula with the Infinity Gauntlet
Magus with the Infinity Gauntlet

Tier 3 : 1st Class Multiversal Abstract or Scale
Eternity
Infinity
Death
Oblivion
The Phoenix Force
The Alien Entity
Infiniti IG Nemesis
Genesis ( Sise-Neg)


These lists are cool and all (and I mean it, I'm a comic geek so I'm interested in this kind of stuff), but most of the beings listed are not superheroes. In fact, according to this list, the most powerful superhero of all-time is...Captain Britain?

Bet you weren't expecting that one.

That's Captain Britain with Excalibur and AoR, and Adam Warlock with the Infinity Gauntlet is still above him.

There"s this one JLA comic where the justice league gets defeated systematically one by one cuz someone steals the Data batman has prepared on their wekness..

And so what if he doesn"t have superpowers , that hasn"t stopped him from being an uber badass and saving the planet from alien invasions,supernatural beings etc etc...Guess this thread should be renamed which Comic book character has the Strongest POWERS if you don"t count batman as a superhero...

Batman for me epitomises everything a superhero should be..the self sacrifice throughout the years and the human element that we can easily relate to.
Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

Harvey Birdman is my favourite super hero.
He is also the strongest because he has angel wings and pretends to be a lawyer.

Strongest: Goku

People saying otherwise:
- Not seen Dragonball series
- Chuck Norris trolls, lol

To all you saying goku.. While its true that in the DBZ series he is indeed, the strongest warrior alive.

BUT. If you take into account broly, the REAL legendary super saiyan, he puts goku to shame with his power level.

For those who wanna disagree, dont. Broly unchecked will GAIN energy (and thus power) over time. If he wasnt destroyed by all saiyans everytime, he would absolutely SMASH every known SSJ form in the world. with eaz, I tell you that.

Ofcourse, Broly aint really a superhero, so you're absolutely right on that part ^^

Yeah, I said it quite a few posts back. But it's not actually legend if you take into account the "legend of bardock" in onemanga wherein the whole legend or story orignated from cooler (as a kid - I think) invating Planet Planet (to become Planet Vegeta in the future) confronted Bardock (thrown in the past) who managed to go SSJ1 and beat him.

As for goku's potential, if you are just observing the Z Series then it isn't much of a contest and Goku shouldn't be in the running, but if you add in the ending of the GT series, Goku becomes the dragon god, omnipotent and immortal. I just don't know if he needs someone to wish something before he can do it or he can just will it into existence faster than a blink of an eye..

And someone was asking limitation of dragon god wishes, if you talk about the earth Dragon Ball, then it's one wish one person but if you take into account the namekian dragon god, 3 wishes and pretty much revive as much as he can as long as he can (you can actually deny being revived in the Dragon Ball series if you wanted to stay in heaven. hehe! =)! )

About Batman, there was this Batman Beyond episode (or was it JLA special) where we all found out Terry Mcguiness was actually a genetic "son" of Bruce Wayne (GASP!) hehe!

The Cadmus boss said the line to extent of something like "We can't imagine a world without Batman"

I think that line was deep in the sense that Batman was actually the one keeping the balance between regular folk and the super powered guys. Case in point, the file he had on everyone on/against the Justice League.

He's pretty much I would say the good guy equivalent of Lex Luthor, the cash and the brains to back it up. Problem with lex is, he has an ego problem while Bruce doesn't.

I mean, if you do look at it from an observers standpoint, Batman (although being "flawed" as a human) can still go toe to toe with any of the superpowered menaces the JLA faces and still come out alive (bloodied and bruised maybe, but still alive).

The only way you could theoretically beat Batman is if he is ill equipped/prepared to deal with the situation. Good example would be him suddenly going toe to chair with Prof X on the stop on a 1 on 1 battle. I mean Prof would just mind blast him and practically kill him. With preperation however, he could end up making some helmet like Magneto's and beat the crap out of Prof X. But that is only in that situtation and you couldn't really anticipate how or what would happen between him against a celestial being/power. I mean there is a limit to how much "preparedness" can get/give you only for you to find out resistance is futile. =)

About Superman vs SilverSurfer - Superman isn't smart enough to build super high tech stuff to kick him off his board.
Also, I don't see why you say Goku is stronger then Dr.Manhattan (even tho Goku is no superhero) - Dr.Manhattan is unkillable and can shatter things into pieces without even really tryin' it. While Goku is not unkillable and can just shoot lazer which Dr.Manhattan can ignore because they dont even tickle him...
hurr gurr.
