You missed the previous scan, which shows this was a dream. Superman is in bed with Lois, starts to dream and suddenly he's chained up. Nowhere in the story did we see him captured and chained up. He closes his eyes, then he's chained up. It's obvious we're shown a dream.
No, you don't understand it all you, you obviously and absolutely don't get the concept of comic book feats which is why you keep stating the obvious, we know the laws of physics don't apply. What are you going to tell us next, water is wet? This is a science fiction and fantasy forum...
In comics books the early writers, such as Stan Lee, had a good understanding physics (if you take into account that this was the pre-internet era), that's not the case today, which is why we see more and more outlandish stunts or feats as we call them. The thing with these feats isn't to look...
I can't post scans of the feat due to copyright issues. The planet they are standing on is turned to rock and dust, two nearby planets are completely vaporised. How much energy, in joules, would that take?
Astrophysicist Scott Manley determined the energy required to destroy a planet (2.25 x 1032 joules). Is the energy required to destroy 3 planets simply a case of multiplying his result by three? If not, how much energy would it take to destroy 3 planets? This scenario relates to Incredible Hulks...
Superman's strength tops out at bench pressing the equivalent mass of the Earth. When he needed to move an object larger than the Earth (mass unknown), he needed help.
Not lift the Earth, lift the mass equivalent to the weight of the Earth, as I wrote in my question:
how much is required to lift the mass of one planet
I termed the question that way for a reason. In the two feats I showed, neither Hulk or Thor are lifting a physical object, they're been hit...
Of course I admit the physics is made up! This is the sci-fi and fantasy forum! The physics in most of the topics here are made up - there's a question about time travel, about Star Wars, compression in Pokeballs etc, etc so why are you asking? Science Fiction and Fantasy take elements from...
In these feats, they are standing on Earth and taking magic and cosmic power equivalent to the weight of 20 planets and equivalent to the weight of star.
I have a related question. Taking speed out of the equation, if we assume a planet is stationary, in terms of raw power, how much is required to lift the mass of one planet, if that planet has the same mass as Earth? Superman benched the weight of Earth, Thor lifted a score of planets and Hulk...
