how strong is superman?

This is directly from Wikipedia, as my words would not do Superman's strength justice.\n\n"Super strength: While the exact magnitude of Superman's strength is unknown, it is generally accepted that his strength easily surpasses the capacity to lift 100 tons, but how much more is not known exactly. This is because Superman's strength, like his other powers, has fluctuated over time, with the Man of Steel being at times able to shift a planet from its orbit. One figure for Superman's strength is 800,000 tons (pre-The Death of Superman story arc). In the Elseworlds saga Kingdom Come, the elderly but still brilliant Bruce Wayne makes reference to Superman being able to "split the Earth in two." As mentioned above Superman can possess enough strength to move an entire planet upon attaining enough solar energy from Earth's yellow sun. The newly released series All Star Superman, written by Grant Morrison, has Superman's strength being tested by scientists on a lunar lab after flying through the Sun's corona. The scientist's found that he was able to resist weights up to 200 quintillion tons , tripling his strength from an earlier point and hadn't yet reached an upper limit. However, it was revealed that Superman had stored too much raw solar energy, so much so that it was causing cell death at a rapid rate. Although the All Star imprint may not be strictly canonical, this firmly places him at the top of superhero power levels in virtually any comic book universe."

This was answered during John Byrne's run on the post-'Crisis' Superman comic title: Kal-El's ability to fly is a mental manifestation of his power. Essentially, the yellow sun gives him an aura, which he can use to propell himself skyward and lift heavy objects. It's not his muscles.

Professor X or Wonder-woman - she kicked superman's butt and nearly killed him and he's the most 'super' super hero. X could do it with his mind, but someone could just chuck him out of his wheelchair. Plus Wonder-woman could steal Magneto's helmet to stop X's brain powers. \nWolverine's been beaten by Magneto and Elektra.

I think he's a younger superman, at the beginning. As far as being thin, I always wondered why superman had to look muscular, since his powers don't come from regular muscles.

He is a great superhero. His only weakness is flying to close to an open flame or bright light.

Maybe Superman, because he has complete muscle control, and might be able to, well you know. Batman has the biggest natural penis for a mortal you can just tell, 9-9 1/2. Spider man 7 or 8. Thor 10-12 he is a god you know, Nick Fury 7, Hawkman 5 or 6 he's just seems so average to me. Superboy...hmm, I don't like him, but I'm going with my gut 7 1/2. Namors got nothing to prove with 8 inches. I'm adding that Punisher with 8 or 9, just cause he's great. :)

Superman, cos he gets strength from our yellow sun, so he will be able fight The Hulk, have a rest with a super cup of tea with semi skimmed milk , a Lois Lane and Lana Lang sandwich and two Krispy Kreme doughnuts then recharge then go back to fighting The Hulk who was fighting a Starbucks coffee server as the Hulk got confused with the plethora of choices available.\n\n"Hulk want simple coffee puny human, not low fat skinny, Hulk angry"

oK! To the outside looking in - Yes! Superman whips them both\nBut most people forget that Superman has trouble defeating Lex Luthor. Batman is the world's greatest detective and would outsmart Superman and lead him into Kryptonite or a red light shining red sun beams turning him human. And with Spiderman's help, he is defeated!!!

Superman just uses his X-ray eyes that could burn the spider webs. But I think they will not fight because they are positive and have integrity personality.

Yes.  In terms of humanity... he fights for truth, justice, and freedom.  His superpowers defines what he can and can't do.  How can he be Earth's greatest defender, if he can't defend the planet from a rogue asteroid?  Besides, he doesn't just stay in the confines of his city to help other in need.  if there is a tsunami headed towards Indonesia... he'll go there to save the millions of live at stake.  Can Batman or Aqua do that?  I don't think so!  Superman has an enduring legendary status that has been around form almost 70 years, and the way I see it, it still will be for another 70 and more... because he is the greatest hero of all time.

"It's Impossible! Lois could never have Superman's baby! Do you think her fallopian tubes could handle the sperm? I grantee you he blows a load like a shotgun right through her back! What about her womb. Do you think it's strong enough to carry his child?" "Sure, why not?" "He's an alien for Christ's sake! His Kryptonian biological makeup is enhanced by Earth's yellow sun. If Lois gets a tan the kid could kick right through her stomach. Only someone like Wonder Woman has a strong enough uterus to carry his kid. The only way he could bang regular chicks is with a kryptonite condom, but that would kill him."-I believe the original conversation between T.S. and Brodie should answer your question.

his powers were better than the other super heroes.  plus, i think the creators of the comic book figures sort of voted amongst themselves to have one invincible super hero.

Superman would win, no matter what. Spiderman is about 12 levels below Superman when it comes to strength, speed, endurance, intelligence, and invunerability. I mean, come on! Parker is a wimp compared to Kent! Just about every single villian (and a great number of heroes) have beaten the stuffing out of Spiderman. Even non-powered people like Frank Castle have whooped Spidey's behind! Not too many villains or heros can take credit for beating Superman- and those that have, its only been temporary, and they were the worst of the worst (Darkseid, Metallo, the Cyborg, Doomsday, The Joker (when he had Imp-Magic), Shazam, and Batman...thats about it..and anyone of them would make mince meat out of Parker in about 2 seconds (well, it would probably take Wayne some time, but he could put the smack down on Parker too)

Yes.  I saw the movie and apparently he is.  Superman told Jason when Jason was in bed the same thing that Jor-el tol Superman....the father becomes the son and the son becomes the father...you will never be alone....etc..  I think that since he is not a full Kryptonian...he had an Earth mother...that he will not be as super powered as Superman is.  It was Jason who through the piano and saved his mother...remember?  My answer...yes.  Superman had sex with Lois in Superman II.

No.  The Batman was an ordinary human; Superman had extraordinary super-human powers.  No contest.
