DWOAH: Son Goku vs Superman

Deadliest warriors of all history

Son Goku vs Superman

The heroes of heroes

Goku info:

Height: 5 foot 9 (roughly, gets taller and shorter with transformations)

Weight: 170 pounds (roughly, gains mass with transformations)

Weapons: Bare hands, Ki energy attacks (Kamehameha wave, Spirit bomb etc), Solar flare (ability to generate bright light from his eyes to blind enemies momentarily)

Strengths: Goku is physically one of the strongest beings in the universe, able to punch through mountains with ease and can shake the planet with a simple blow. He also has extreme durability able to withstand being forced through several miles of rock and still remain conscious, had once fought under several thousand tons of pressure whilst fighting at the bottom of the Namekian Ocean and can withstand gravity several hundred times stronger than Earth’s gravity. Despite popular belief that Goku died during Namek’s destruction he in fact survived, the planets detonation merely blasting him into another galaxy showing that for some degree Goku can survive the vacuum of space. Being the pinnacle of the Saiyan race Goku has reached all know levels of the Super Saiyan transformation and can access them at will when needed vastly increasing his power with every level, at his most powerful Goku has a Ki power level that reaches into the hundreds of billions granting him the power to decimate entire solar systems (if he ever wanted to). His main attacks come from his own fists as he dislikes using weapons aside from his Power Pole, having mastered the globally known Kamehameha wave and the devastating Spirit bomb attack, he can also travel near anywhere in the universe with his Instant Transmission technique which allows him to travel from one galaxy to another in less than a second.

Weakness: Being a Saiyan Goku has an enormous appetite and needs to have a relatively full stomach to fight to his full potential, otherwise hunger near cripples him. He also has a great aversion to the cold having hated it since his first experience with winter as a child. Despite his extreme power Goku can be brought down with brute force being by no means immortal.

Superman info:

Height: 6 foot 3

Weight: 235 pounds

Weapons: Bare hands, Laser vision, Ice breath

Strengths: Superman is one of the most powerful beings in the DC universe and is the second fastest next to the Flash (who can reach speeds unparalleled). His Laser vision can cut through almost anything and his Ice breath can freeze almost anything. Durability wise Superman is unfazed by all human weaponry able to withstand bombs to the face and bullets directly to his eyes without feeling a thing. He has the strength to lift entire planets above his head and can fly at speeds that if he goes against Earth’s rotation he can stop it and make it go in reverse. Whilst he cannot strictly breathe in space Superman can hold his breath for extreme amounts of time (possibly days as a time).

Weaknesses: Superman’s main weakness is of course Kryptonite, a mineral from his home planet that renders him completely powerless to the point that he cannot support his own bodyweight. Also as much as Superman is durable he can be brought down with brute force having been bested by attacks that barely destroyed a city. Being powered by Earth’s yellow sun Superman needs to remain within the same galaxy as it otherwise he will be rendered powerless.

Battle begin!

“This seems like a good spot” Goku declared as he landed in the middle of a barren wasteland “no life for miles and nothing valuable in sight, the perfect place for a fight but who should I challenge? Vegeta? Gohan? Maybe Piccolo? I’ve been training a lot with them lately so I should find someone new to fight but who?”. Goku pondered his decision for a few moments before sensing an extremely powerful presence approaching his position from the North “who is that? I’ve never sensed power like that before and it’s coming right this way”.

Steeling himself for what was coming Goku peered into the distance to see a dust cloud steadily getting larger as it approached. He then felt the ground begin to shake as the dust cloud got closer able to pick out a shape at the front of the cloud; it was humanoid, fast as lightening and by what he was sensing more powerful than anyone he had ever faced before.

Then in a flash and what sounded like the sound barrier being totally destroyed prompting Goku to shield his eyes the being appeared in front of him hovering a foot above the ground. The being was male with a muscular build greater to that of Goku’s and wore a bright blue body suit coupled with red boots, briefs and cape along with a golden belt and a large ‘S’ symbol emblazoned on his chest.

The being before him was none other than Superman.

“So you’re the power I sensed” Goku spoke as the dust cloud settled down “the name’s Goku, what’s yours?”.

“You know full well who I am, everyone on this planet does” Superman responded in a much colder tone than he normally spoke “and you should know why I’m here”.

“Well I don’t actually know but I hope it’s to fight, I’ve trained way too many times with my friends and I need a new challenge” Goku responded rolling his arms in their sockets.

“Such a fool” Superman scoffed “the great Son Goku, all muscle and no brain”.

“You sound like you’ve been talking to Vegeta” Goku laughed which only served to aggravate the Kryptonian more.

“You seriously don’t understand the severity of this situation don’t you? I’m not here to fight you Goku; I’m here to kill you”.

“What? Why?” Goku asked in confusion, he hadn’t done anything to hurt Superman personally and he didn’t seem to be some kind of villain trying to take over the Earth.

“Because Goku, you’re more a danger to this planet than you are a boon to it, with every battle you participate in countless lives are endangered by your reckless disregard for the planet whilst you fight, plus violence is in your blood, I know you’re not human and to be honest your race deserved to die for the atrocities they reaped on the universe, you may call yourself a hero but for the good of the Earth you have to die” the man of steel declared as his eyes started to glow.

Goku stared at the Kryptonian in shock for a few moments before his expression hardened “hold on there, whenever I fight I make sure that there are no bystanders that can be harmed and I fix all damages to the planet with the Dragonballs, don’t you dare compare me to the rest of my race, I am a Saiyan but not like the others, I fight to defend those I care about, not to kill for sport or fun, if that isn’t enough for you then come try and kill me but just know I won’t make it easy for you” the Saiyan declared preparing himself setting a combat stance “face me with everything you have!”.

Within a second of Goku goading him on Superman fired his eye lasers at the Saiyan only for Goku to block them with his palm “is this the best you’ve got? Honestly my brother’s attacks hurt a lot more than this and I was a mere fraction of how strong I am no….” he stated before being cut off by Superman shooting towards him and slugging him hard in the face with a punch strong enough to send him flying backwards at speed causing him to crash into a mountainside. Pausing for a moment to see the damage of his attack Superman wasn’t at all surprised when the mountainside suddenly exploded sending debris everywhere as Goku calmly stepped out of it rubbing his jaw “nice distraction method, really should have seen it coming” the Saiyan commented “I’d advise not doing it again though, I may not be very bright but what I learn I learn quickly so I know to watch out for that now, I also know that with your speed and strength I’m no match for you at my base strength so I better take it up a level”.

With that Goku began to power up yelling out a primal cry as the ground around him started to shake, the loose debris rising into the air around the Saiyan as he developed a golden aura and his hair began to stand up straight turning a glowing golden tone whilst his eyes went from black to blue, seconds later the aura around him erupted growing to twice its size leaving Goku literally glowing with Ki energy “now let’s see if you have what it takes to take on a Super Saiyan” Goku smirked beckoning Superman to attack him again.

Snarling at Goku’s goading Superman charged forward in a flurry of punches launching his fists with enough force to shatter diamond but to his frustration Goku dodged every attack with most minimal of ease, simply ducking and swerving to avoid the Kryptonian’s fists with an almost arrogant smirk on his face. When his fist finally connected though Goku wasn’t launched back as he was before, the blow only knocking his head back for a few seconds before he righted it showing the tiniest bruise on his forehead “your attacks have no grace, no finesse, it’s like an elephant trying to stomp on a bee, just throwing your weight around hoping to hit me won’t get you far in this fight” the Saiyan taunted before throwing a punch of his own. Superman whipped his head to a side narrowly avoiding a hit before noticing that Goku had already started a follow up swing slugging the man of steel hard in the gut winding him then bringing the elbow of his first arm down on the Kryptonian’s head.

Whilst Superman recoiled from the hit Goku grabbed him by his head and brought his knee crashing into the Kryptonian’s face sending him flying back hitting the ground hard enough to send cracks through it for several metres. Growling in annoyance Superman slammed his fist to the ground as he righted himself sending more cracks in the earth for miles around before launching himself back at Goku at a great speed, his fists aimed at Goku’s chest as the Saiyan stayed completely still until the very last second when Superman flew straight through the Goku who reacted simply by fading from view leaving the man of steel puzzled.

“You’ve never heard of an afterimage before have you?” Superman heard Goku asked from behind him turning in time to receive a strong kick to the head sending him tumbling to the ground “is this honestly the best you’ve got cos I’m gonna be honest, I’m disappointed” Goku admitted as Superman slammed his fists against the ground again shattering several more miles of earth as he got back to his feet.

“You’re disappointed? Well let’s see how disappointed you are when I stop holding back!” Superman barked as he suddenly lunged forward at a speed near unreadable clocking Goku in the jaw before the Saiyan could dodge sending him flying back through a large rock formation. Like the mountain before it the rocks quickly shattered into rubble as Goku effortlessly broke out of them cracking his neck as he stood up “like you I can lower my strength and even now I am nowhere near my maximum potential, you should just give up now and let me give you a painless end”.

“Wow, you really don’t know me at all” Goku responded as he ascended to Super Saiyan 2 gaining a stronger aura along with lightening sparks radiating from his body. With his power level escalating to more than fifty times that of Super Saiyan 1 Goku rushed forward to face Superman in combat again, now that Superman wasn’t holding back he was able to block the majority of Goku’s blows even though his technique was severely lacking fighting more like a brawler or a berserker than a trained warrior.

Dodging several more swings Goku waited until Superman sent a heavy left hook his way before disappearing from sight. Looking around frantically in annoyance Superman’s attention was caught when he heard the sound of energy rising “KA….ME…..” looking up the Kryptonian found Goku a good half a mile above him charging an energy attack “HA….ME….”.

Taking off at a speed that created a crater below him Superman charged at Goku both fists forward to intercept his attack but the Saiyan had planned ahead flying back away from Superman still charging his attack. Gritting his teeth Superman sped himself up to a speed Goku couldn’t match flying backwards and just when he was about to connect with the Saiyan Goku disappeared and reappeared right behind him “HAAAAAA!!!!!!!!”.

With Superman facing away from the Earth Goku was safe to launch his devastating attack without risk of missing and damaging the planet. Turning around just in time to be struck by the Kamehameha Wave Superman crossed his arms over his face in an attempt to block the attack whilst he was forced back out of the atmosphere, the attack Goku launched at him felt like he was being burned with the intensity of a star and the fact that a mere mortal was able to generate such power with ease stunned him. As the attack blasted him back Superman felt himself leave the atmosphere and enter the cold emptiness of outer space before the Kamehameha finally dissipated.

When he was freed from the blast Superman found that his suit had taken heavy damage and that his skin was slightly charred making him grunt in annoyance as he tore off his ruined cape letting it float off into the vastness of space. With his sharp hearing Superman picked up the sound of Goku letting out another primal shout whilst his eyesight caught notice of the tiny speck of energy illuminating the spot of Earth he had been on moments before “he’s powering up again, I can’t let him too powerful” Superman asserted as he shot down through the atmosphere at a speed faster than the human eye could follow.

When he landed he found that Goku had already ascended to the next level now standing half a foot shorter than he had before but also was a lot bulkier in muscle. Goku’s forehead was now a lot more pronounced jutting out over his eyes and his hair now hung in a thick sparking golden thatch hanging down his back lower than his knees. Suddenly Goku disappeared from Superman’s vision before appearing again right in front of him grabbing the Kryptonian by the wrists before slamming his head forward into Superman’s face with such impact it actually broke his nose.

Crying out in pain as blood poured down his face Superman struggled in vain to escape Goku’s grasp but the Saiyan’s grip remained cast iron slamming his head against Superman’s face again and again. “What’s wrong? Not so tough now are you?” Goku borderline taunted pressing his feet to Superman’s chest before fully straightening his legs to push the Kryptonian back threatening to tear his arms straight out of their sockets.

The sound of crunching bones filled the air as Superman’s arms began to give way under the strain causing the Kryptonian to sweat under pressure for the first time in years. Just as his arms were about to dislocate Superman forced his head forward and blasted Goku was a large breath of sub-zero air forcing the Saiyan to let go as parts of his skin flash froze from Superman’s breath. Hissing in pain as he frantically brushed off the ice from his arms and chest Goku turned in turn to receive a brutal kick to the head followed by another to the gut painfully winding him whilst Superman fully relocated his arms.

With his arms fully back in their sockets Superman grabbed Goku by the head in an attempt to break his neck but when he twisted Goku let his body go limber causing him to spin along with his head. Finding his attempt useless Superman went back on the offensive slugging Goku hard in the head sending the Saiyan spiralling back whilst also causing damage to his hand from Goku’s extremely dense skull. Righting himself mid-air Goku shook his head to rid himself of the dizziness Superman’s punch brought before fanning his fingers out around his eyes “SOLAR FLARE!” he cried out generating a blinding amount of light from his eyes burning Superman’s before he could look away forcing him to look away in pain.

Momentarily blinded Superman had to rely on his acute hearing to detect Goku’s attacks coming just barely blocking them to soften the blows before defending himself with more of his Ice breath. Goku saw it coming this time and teleported behind Superman to put him in a full nelson grapple “just give up, I don’t want to have to kill you damn it!” Goku snapped as he pulled Superman’s arms back pressing his knees into his back to put pressure on his spine.

In defiance to Goku’s attempt at reasoning Superman slammed his head back into Goku’s face forcing him to break the hold before daring behind the Saiyan wrapping his arm around his throat to choke him before dragging him full speed towards the atmosphere. Despite the agony in his arms Superman kept Goku in an iron tight hold taking a deep breath as he dragged the Saiyan out of the atmosphere away from the oxygen they both needed.

Now that they were in space Superman felt Goku struggle even harder able to hear him choking for breath only making him hold the Saiyan tighter intent on suffocating him. He knew killing Goku would have great repercussions back on Earth as many saw Goku as the hero of heroes more so than the people of Metropolis idolized him but he believed that the world would be better off without the Saiyan and what he believed goes. After several minutes of Goku’s continued struggling Superman started to wonder how he hadn’t succumb to the lack of oxygen or at least the absolute zero temperature.

That’s when he noticed that Goku was no longer gasping for air now letting out loud primal growls and snarls as the sound of bones breaking and reforming. That was also when he noticed that he had Goku facing the moon and at their angle it was completely full. To his horror Superman felt Goku grow and expand in his grasp as his growls before a bellow of pure rage, his pants ripping as a long thick monkey’s tail burst out of his lower back whipping around violently as his eyes turned bright red, his Super Saiyan aura died down as his skin began to sprout thick brown fur and his face morphed into that of a feral ape whilst his body grew dozens of times larger.

As Goku’s transformation came to end Superman had already let go and was descending back to Earth leaving Goku to suffocate, he may have been one of the most powerful beings in the universe but Oozaru’s were feared throughout the universe even on Krypton and each Kryptonian infant was practically mind washed with an instinctive fear of the Saiyan’s Great Ape form. Landing back on Earth Superman looked to the skies still able to hear Goku’s feral roars and bellows from beyond the atmosphere “why won’t you die?” the Kryptonian growled in annoyance before spotting something that looked like a meteor breaking through the ozone layer but a lot more vocal than most meteors.

Realizing that Goku was powerful enough to easily survive the fall back to Earth Superman glanced around to find that their fight had taken them hundreds of miles away from where they had started without them noticing now being near a fairly large city “the impact alone would level half of the city, I can’t let that happen” he declared launching himself skyward at the plummeting Oozaru. Even whilst travelling at several hundred feet a second and burning from the fall through the atmosphere Goku still let out constant roars of rage and Superman was certain the noise contained not even a hint of pain in it.

Flying up at the plummeting Oozaru Superman grabbed him by the fur of his chest and hurled him northward away from the City before taking off after him following the Great Ape for the few hundred miles he flew before he finally slammed into a mountain reducing it to rubble. Seconds later the Great Ape burst out of the rubble bellowing ferally as Superman flew straight at it to strike it hard, with speed unnatural for its size the Ape slammed both hands around Superman stopping his attack and placing him in a crushing grip that had the Kryptonian’s bones and muscles straining.

Struggling against the Apes hold Superman blasted the beast in the face with his laser vision only to find that it barely singed his skin “just give up, there’s no need to fight anymore” a deep grating voice suddenly emitted from the Oozaru’s chest “neither of us is a danger to the Earth so we need to stop this before we do become the danger”. Ignoring Goku’s attempts to reason with him Superman blew a bitter gale of frozen breath at him freezing the Great Ape’s snout making him wince and growl “I didn’t want to do this but you leave me no choice!” Goku declared as his brown fur suddenly shone a bright gold as his body was surrounded with a powerful aura.

Throwing Superman to a side Goku let out a thunderous roar that shook the Earth around them as his body began to glow and change, shrinking down barely a tenth of his Great Ape size as he ascended yet again. When the transformation ended Goku stood proudly having taken on a much more primal appearance, deep red fur lined his arms, back and abdomen whilst keeping his chest and six pack bare, a long red tail hung from his lower back sweeping slowly along the ground, his hair had returned to its original deep black colour hanging half way down his back and his eyes now had red markings around the bottom of them. Upon seeing Goku’s new form Superman wavered slightly feeling the crushing presence of sheer power that Saiyan now gave off noticing how the loose pieces of ground under them were vibrating violently from the pressure of Goku’s strength.

“What’s wrong Superman?” Goku taunted his voice now a much deeper gravelly tone “still confident that you can kill me with ease? I told you if you’re so adamant on ending my life I wasn’t going to make it easy for you, some come on and let’s see if you can take me on at my strongest” the Saiyan declared before rushing forward swinging a punch at Superman that he only just blocked at the last second. The impact of the blow was enough for the Kryptonian to feel his forearm bone bruise and even crack as their connecting bodies created a strong shock wave cracking the ground around them for several metres.

Reeling from the blow Superman swung his arm to strike at Goku’s head only for the Saiyan to deftly duck and strike back with a powerful uppercut to his jaw sending him flying back hitting the ground hard, as Superman landed Goku followed the uppercut up with a savage elbow to the Kryptonian’s stomach knocking the air from his lungs before he grabbed him by his ankles swinging him hard into the air. Stopping himself mid-air Superman barely had time to react when Goku appeared in front of him slugging him hard in the gut again before following up with a brutal punch to his jaw.

The sound of Goku’s fists, feet, elbows and legs connecting with Superman’s body echoed for miles around as the Saiyan continued to make easy work of the Kryptonian. No matter what Superman tried he couldn’t build up enough speed to block Goku’s strikes and he could feel his bones starting to strain threatening to break under the Saiyan’s onslaught “ENOUGH!!!” he bellowed throwing his limbs out to create a shockwave strong enough to force Goku away and level several small mountains around them “I didn’t want to do this but you leave me no choice, no more holding back!” Superman declared as his eyes started to glow a bright white.

“So you’re finally gonna give me a real challenge?” Goku goaded setting a fighting stance again before launching himself at Superman throwing a punch that the caped hero managed to block this time making a shockwave that created a deep crater beneath them. Feeling his arm bruise against Superman’s Goku grinned at the fact that the Kryptonian could now give him a challenge blocking a brutal kick Superman sent at him with his foot feeling his knee strain against it. Breaking away from each other both combatants then flew back at each other throwing punches and kicks at speeds unreadable by the human eye and even brain. Sonic booms constantly rang out as their bodies moved faster than the speed of sound and the very landscape around them crumbled from the very presence of their combat.

Grabbing Goku by his hair Superman slammed his forehead against his in a savage head butt before swinging the Saiyan around wildly by his head until he launched the Saiyan into the air sending him hurtling into orbit. Quickly stopping himself before he left the atmosphere Goku turned around in time to suffer a harsh punch to the gut making him cough up a small amount of blood, growling ferally the Saiyan grabbed onto Superman’s arm before he could move away and brought his fist down on the elbow joint resulting in an echoing snap as the joint completely shattered from the blow.

As Superman recoiled from the blow Goku struck him hard across the face with a roundhouse kick sending him flying for several miles, crashing along the ground several times along the way making deep craters. When he finally stopped Superman coughed up blood as he pushed himself up with his remaining arm only to get slammed back down to the dirt as Goku appeared above him bringing his foot down on the Kryptonian’s back with enough force to split the ground beneath him. As he watched Superman disappear into the rubble Goku cupped his hands by his side charging his attack “Kamehameha times one hundred!” he cried out sending the more powerful version of his signature attack into the hole causing a monstrous underground explosion causing the ground to crack and erupt for several miles around them.

Goku then waited staring down into the smoking abyss he had created waiting to see the outcome of his attack on his opponent, he didn’t have to wait long though as Superman emerged from the hole bloodied and charred clutching onto his broken arm as he panted heavily for breath “ready to give up yet?” Goku asked giving Superman one last chance to walk away before they caused more damage but Superman’s response was just a cold hard glare showing his determination. “Fool” Goku muttered under his breath at the Kryptonian’s stubbornness rushing towards him with another attack swinging his fist to which Superman only just blocked, his arm shook and strained under Goku’s force leaving him wide open to several savage punches to the gut and chest from the Saiyan’s other arm.

Soon enough Superman was left a beaten wreck barely able to remain conscious as Goku held him up by the tattered remains of his suit “there, we’re done” Goku said letting Superman drop to the ground “there’s no need to go any further than this, I’m willing to let you walk away and for that I want you to forget about trying to kill me, understood?” the Saiyan asserted as he turned his back to the Kryptonian “I’ll take that silence as a yes, come after me again though and I won’t be so merciful, I don’t enjoy attempts on my life”.

Leaving Superman to pick himself up Goku then took to the air flying off not bothering to look back at his opponent, he was angry with himself for letting the battle become so heated after Superman had accused him of being too destructive in his fights, he may have beaten the Kryptonian but he had also proved him partially right. As the Saiyan took his leave Superman forced himself to his feet grunting as he forced what was left of his elbow socket back into place before doing the same with several of his ribs. He couldn’t let Goku leave, not after proving just how powerful he was, hero or not he was too much of a threat and he had to die.

Lifting off from the ground Superman finally let the last barrier of his power go causing his body to emit an almost holy white light before he took off after Goku with speed near unreadable, his remaining arm poised to strike aimed at the back of Goku’s head for a quick kill move. Sensing Superman’s attack Goku used his instant transmission to dodge the strike reappearing behind the Kryptonian “you damned fool!” he roared as he slugged Superman in the back of the head sending him crashing back down to Earth before he started to channel energy into his fist “ultimate Dragon Fist!”.

Diving down at thunderous speed Goku caught Superman as the Kryptonian got to his feet scoring him straight in the abdomen. Time itself seemed to stand still as Superman’s eyes went wide with shock and blood erupted from his mouth, Goku’s fist had struck him with such force that it had passed straight through his stomach and out of his back utterly destroying his organs and severing his spine. As Superman went limp around his arm Goku finished his attack transforming the energy in his arm into the image of the almighty Shenron, the image let out a bellowing roar as it extended from the Saiyan’s arm winding around Superman further crushing his body before winding around the area surrounding them. Finally the dragon shot into the air before looping back down crashing head first into Superman creating a supernova of power that completely obliterated the Kryptonian whilst he let out his agonized death cry.

Panting with exertion Goku watched as Superman’s ashes crumbled from his arm “what a waste” he sighed as he reverted to his base form, when Superman had turned up Goku had felt an excitement in his heart that he only felt from a strong opponent and the Kryptonian had been his most powerful opponent in years. At that realization Goku fell to his knees in shock “he was the strongest….and I beat him” he gasped as his heart started to pound with excitement “that means….I’m the strongest, I’M THE STRONGEST IN THE UNIVERSE!” he shouted to the heavens as a feeling of triumph ran through his veins. The feeling was only fleeting through as the triumph quickly gave way to a cold feeling of dread, if he was the strongest that meant there would be no one to challenge him, he would never feel the rush of excitement from a strong opponent ever again.

As tears started to sting his eyes the ground around him shook and the air almost tore from the ear shattering roar that ripped through it. Glancing to the horizon Goku noticed something coming his way.

Something big.

Something green.

Something very, very angry.

Winner: Son Goku

Go on then Superman fan boys, give me everything you got. I strongly believe that Goku could defeat the so called ‘Man of steel’ and will never think differently. The main factor being Superman’s total lack of fighting skill and finesse, yes he’s extremely physically powerful but he’s a brawler, not a warrior, he throws his fists around knowing that his speed would make them connect before his opponent can dodge but against an opponent with faster reflexes he’s almost clumsy. Goku has been training from the very moment he could stand upright all day every day, when he isn’t spending time with his family or fighting to save the world he’s honing his fighting skills mastering nearly every single martial art imaginable, to him Superman’s way of fighting is far too simply not to counter. Despite that I do acknowledge that Superman is an extremely powerful character, one that is powerful enough to be able to defeat Goku in his base, SSJ1 and SSJ2 forms but the moment the Saiyan hits SSJ3 and higher he would stand no chance.

Another major factor towards Goku’s victory is that I used a version of Superman that was neither Prime or Pre-Crisis, those versions of Superman are so overpowered it’s borderline illegal and in my opinion they should never had existed since they made the entirety of the DC Superheroes completely redundant since they could do literally everything themselves in less than a fraction of a second. If I had set Goku against one of them he’d have lost in a millisecond and it wouldn’t have been even a semblance of a fair fight.
