Re: The Reputation Hilarity/Insanity thread New version
you have to go a step further and include the canon(?) legend that when Goku and Vegeta left Earth, their fight continued on for centuries and the resulting exchanges of each strike created new galaxies. I mean, let's be honest here. How likely is it that Supes survives a galaxy-creating punch from Goku?
Wait what?
Alright, I'm gonna have a little nerd moment here and explain something. You cannot create a galaxy with a punch. A galaxy is consisted of a giant cluster of stars orbiting a black hole.. Thus there are multiple factors involved in one existing.
It might be plausible to say they created black holes with their punches, but that wouldn't make a galaxy, since unless they were already close to an existing galaxy, said black hole would have no stars to collect around it.
It might be plausible to say they created a miniature "big bang" with their punches, but that would only create nebulae, and possibly a few baby stars. but that wouldn't make a black hole..
You could even go as far as to say their punches were so powerful that they made both, but that still wouldn't make a galaxy, it'd just make a small cluster of stars and nebula-gas which would immediately get sucked into the black hole, which would then sit there alone..
As for superman surviving that, superman is an invulnerable character.. He's the guy a 10 year old makes when invited to a D&D session for the first time, and was asked "what kind of character do you want to make?".
You can't justify superman's power with logic, he's just immortal, and all-powerful, because that's what superman is. The only reason he occasionally dies, is the same reason a wrestler takes a dive.. To give a little drama.
Those who think goku can defeat superman, just don't understand superman. He's the fictional character equivalent of a hacker, or a system admin.. You just
don't beat him, ever.. Not unless you've been given a special little permission slip by the company who made him.
To quote DB itself "Super man is as strong as he needs to be".. They weren't being humble when they said that, they meant it in a literal term. He is literally as strong as he needs to be. If he doesn't need to be strong, ie taking a dive for drama, he won't be.. If he needs to be strong enough to beat a foe, he will be.. His power really is just basically set on a dial that ranges from "can mostly easily lift a car" to "infinity times infinity".
