10 Worst Superman Powers Of All Time
Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, super... wall ... building?
Superman is the swiss army knife of Superheroes. For decades he was charged with holding the entirety of DC on his Atlas-like shoulders, or at least the bits that Batman couldn't manage. He was the original and therefore the best, and his godlike status rose and rose over time until there was simply no problem he couldn't solve with the simple use of super-(insert superpower here). During the halcyon (read: rubbish) days of the 50s/60s comics, Superman's moveset got pretty vague as the DC writers, harried to the point of shoe-on-head madness, tried desperately to come up with plot after plot after plot, and most of them were bobbins. Because of how mind-numbingly complex/stupid they were, Superman often had to come up with new powers on the fly. There have been many, many terrible Superman abilities that have surfaced from those woeful funnybooks, including: Super-Mathematics: Superman being able to look at jarful of beans and (incorrectly) work out the number using thinking.... but really STRONG thinking. Super-Baking: It's not really the baking that is itself super, he's just baked something really big, but ... ok fine. Super-Weaving: Wait ... what? Come on now. Super-Hunches: THEY'RE JUST REGULAR HUNCHES, EXCEPT THEY'RE HUNCHES HAD BY SUPERMAN. NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO But the truth is, Superman's powers have been pretty rubbish throughout his entire run, why just hate on the 60s? Here's a broad sweep.
