Superman should just make yellow suns everywhere like some sort of cosmic Johnny Appleseed.

Why doesn't the yellow sun gently caress up Green Lantern?

Green Lantern is over that weakness, but for Superman it was just the type of radiation, not the color. Of course, you're probably just being funny. But still!

Random Stranger posted:Superman flew through Rao, the red sun of Krypton, in the last issue of Infinite Crisis. It's okay that you don't remember this because nobody should remember Infinite Crisis. Remember that dumb thing Neil Gaiman did where one of the Endless convinced a depressed Rao to explode and destroy Krypton so Superman could be depressed that he's the last survivor? And later on it turns out that depressed star is super duper important because it infected all the other stars and convinced them to end the universe? Or something like that. I don't remember Sandman Overture all that much, because it felt to me like Gaiman was pandering to his fanbase too much.

To be fair I'd probably want to explode too if a late-period Neil Gaiman character started talking at me.

I seem to remember that Superman sometimes used this to get past red sun systems while travelling: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermobile Yes, a rocket car with fists, powered by him. Always wondered why Amazo didn't just die laughing when Supes first used it against him.

Didn't he also fly through a red sun while fighting Superboy Prime? And then they landed on that planet Green Lantern?

Yes, but that means, that it's not determined by the color. Also it's a bit more complicated than that. Depending on the structure of the star, the color might be similar while the radiation differs. For example, if the star pulses.

Also they were very successful in beating up Spider-Man. Lots of people are. Spider-Man being the best at it.

This was done better when he tried it with Franklin Richards and Ben immediately picked him up and set him aside because that kid is NOT ready to deal with that much responsibility. Edit:  I will always laugh at Spider-Man just dangling in the air, still sitting. Push El Burrito fucked around with this message at 22:00 on Dec 2, 2019 |
