I agree with you, I never said superman wasn't smart, he just isn't a genius. Your using the word genius lightly and there are very few who are considered at a genius level.

i'd say by the current IQ standards for genius level Clark is most certainly there, granted he's not a 12th level omega-supreme genius as is standard for comic people, but still

Hmm, that's actually exactly what I thought superman was: An average guy with superpowers...Isn't that the whole appeal of superman?

Since when is Lex Luthor considered a "Cosmic Person"?
And supe's was never more than "Gifted", not "Genius"....

Are you implying that surfers are lacking in some capacity?

Silver Surfer takes this.. though it'd take him a while to wear down SBP.

Can SBP breathe indefinitely in space? That right there's a huge weakness of his.. if Norrin can hang onto him long enough with Prime pounding away at him.

If he can breathe indefinitely, I still think Norrin has the physical and energy resources to outlast him, though both individuals absorb energy from their surroundings to retain their stamina/powers (to some degree), right? Does SBP have that necessity, as he's not from "this" universe? I know our Kryptonite doesn't affect him, as it's not his "native" Kryptonite.

Being at work at 3 am gives me the right to ramble.

Ultimately, this would be quite the fight...

I think it would be a good match up until SBP got hold of the Infinity Gauntlet.........

Hasn't Supes created android copies of himself? He is smarter than a lot of people here think.

Earth2 Supes used to have the power of superfast reasoning, mathematics and memory...

the events of Infinity Crisis would say yes he can survive in space as long as he needs too since he flew himself to Oa (well most of the way there anyway)
