Superman VS Black Adam - Who Will Win? | Battle Arena | DCEU

Depends on the author. The pen is the mightiest weapon in comics.

Superman is not weak to magic... its just that magic affects him like it affects everyone else... super becomes weak to kryptonite mot magic...if magic can send you flying twill send him flying too but won't kill him

The flaw about using feats as the measurements for stats is that Superman holds back immensely while Black Adam has no problem letting loose.

This is one of the best explanations from the narrator in many of his battle videos. He really thought this through and convinced me at the end of the day that Superman should not be underestimated against magic. I have a DC comic from the 70s, and Superman is on a huge table restrained by magic. His sheer force of will broke the table and magic binding him. That is beyond impressive.

Superman is physically superior but the magic lightning is somewhat the equalizer. Essentially, the magic is the only thing that gives Adam any hope of truly damaging Supes and not just flinging him around into, what Supes has called in the comics, “a world made of cardboard”. Supes will probably initially be surprised by the damage of Adam‘a lightening, but he will adapt. I actually liked the movie’s depiction of Black Adam. He’s the dark side of Justice. I’m more interested in Shazam vs Black Adam, and I have a feeling this Black Adam will be more good than most of the comic depictions.

Let's not forget Superman was pulling a ship through ice with ease took a direct ax hit from Steppenwolf and didn't even flinch

I think the fight will be decided on the first few seconds and not by any physical characteristics. Superman has shown significant reservation when it comes to killing people outright. He'll do it if necessary, but he tries not to. This means not only is he going to be unwilling to strike a lethal blow initially, he's also going to be holding back significantly so as to avoid doing so accidentally. Black Adam on the other hand is more than willing to lethal up without a second thought. Assuming Superman isn't expecting this it gives Black Adam a brief but critical opening to strike a decisive blow before Superman realizes he can't hold back and commits himself fully to the fight. The question I think is CAN Black Adam in fact deal a lethal blow to Superman? Black Adam is exceptionally strong even for a super, that's certainly true. But I don't think he's strong enough to deal lethal damage on the scale necessary to defeat Superman in what would likely be his only fair shot in the fight.

When you do these versus match ups, especially with two characters that has history of battling each other, you got to go to the comic books. You'll find both Superman & Black Adam are equally matched, giving Superman a slight edge because he's Superman. And also Cal El often on several occasions has to employ Shazam to help take down Black Adam. We get caught up in the movie versions simply because it's action, thus use that as Canon, when in fact, all of these characters, abilities, wins & losses comes off the pages of those who created these characters in the first place.

Did Hawkman really injure Black Adam though, yeah he knocked him around, but he never really looked injured to me, when Dr. Fate attacked on the other hand it actually looked like it did damage, even if it was a little.

Love Black Adam. Im a DC fan. Supes was and still is the greatest super hero ever. Hes built to win. The writers wrote him to be the best. He sunbathes for a few mins hes already greater than %98 of all heroes and villains out there.

WW's lasso of truth (which is magical) had no effect on Superman. I believe magic affects Superman but its technically not a weakness. Superman's greatest weakness is his humanity. He always holds back.

In their meetings in the animated and comics, Black Adam was able to hurt Superman with the use of magic, but it was always widely accepted that Superman was overall stronger, and not by a small margin. Superman nearly always held back in fights. The only time he went full out was against Darksied in the animations, and he wound up kicking the crap of Darksied when he went full bore mode.

WW’s lasso of truth is purely magical and Superman tanked it easily.

Everyone knows the cameraman is the fastest character

Great video and I think you hit the nail on the head with the last statement for black Adam. As they stated in the movie they need to get ahead of taking care of black Adam before he gets stronger meaning we still have not seen his full capability and I'm excited to see when they meet

Thank you. Don't forget what Superman's father stated in the Fortress of Solitude. Superman's abilities turned out to be far greater than anticipated. To find out your true abilities, you will need to keep testing your limits. They are higher than we presently know. Conclusion, Superman has abilities greater than we have seen. He has new or greater ability. He is SUPERMAN.

One thing I learned about superman if he have to sacrifice himself to save the world he will make sure he put a end to his enemies trust me...

The Aquaman submarine feat was pretty badass.

I can imagine these 2 fighting on the big screen. So much destruction

Superman can be killed, Black Adam has to willingly surrender to lose
