10 DC Characters Weaker Than Superman Who Could (In Theory) Kill Him

2. Jesse Custer

Part of the Vertigo imprint of DC Comics, Jesse Custer is the protagonist of the comic book series Preacher. Fused with a powerful entity named Genesis, Custer was gifted with the ability to order people to do whatever he commands using a power known as the "Word of God".

That said, apart from this power, he is an otherwise ordinary human without any enhanced physical statistics and who is nothing more than a relatively proficient hand-to-hand combatant. However, by simply saying to Superman "kill yourself" or "rip your own heart out", he could kill the man of steel with relative ease.

One of Jesse's more memorable scenes involved him saying "go f**k yourself" to a guy he had beef with... which the man promptly did, quite literally. Nice huh?
