I could carry all of my various Voidcessories around. Like my portable gaming consoles, and my Snake Eyes action figure, and a lighter. And some snacks. And my car key. And my wallet. Dammit. |

Cable...definately Cable.
All I ever heard about this peon is "HE IS THE MOST POWERFUL MUTANT...NAY...MOST POWERFUL BEING EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!"
Really? What are his powers?
"HE HAS A GLOWING EYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYE!"
Ok...does it shoot lasers or have some sort of vision power or something?
"NO, IT GLOOOOOOOOWS!"
Uh, what else?
"HE'S PART CYBORG...SORTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
There's about a thousand characters who can claim the same thing, and NONE of them are considered so godly, as Cable. What else can this doofus do?
"HE HAS GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNS!!!!"
So...he's a cybornetic Punisher with a glowing eye and grey hair? He's a pussy, the guy is totally lame, stop trying to shove him being "all powerful" down our throats, because he so obviously isn't. If he was, why struggle with a total clown like Apocalypse for so long? Give me a break!

1.) Forge's power wasn't just "make things fast" it was also "invent things fast." If he needed to, he could make a gun out of sticks that could shoot grass bullets so hard they'd hurt like real bullets. That's what I've been lead to believe anyway. 2.) Diss Dazzler and die. *cracks knuckles*  |

I think you and whoever is theoretically answering your questions may want to find out a bit more about the character. His telekinesis and telepathy have at times been on par with Jean Grey, if not more so. |

Also for all his power besides his role in Annihilation what has the Super-Skrull ever really pulled off? The F4 were able to stomp him one on one at times.

There was a Captain Marvel in the 60's whose power was being able to split off body parts.  |

I know this is gonna cause a s***storm...and I'm sorry for that but.....
SUPERMAN.
If ever there were a character that just makes me turn away from whatever he's in...it's HIM. I mean, I know DC had to stick him in that badass new Captain Marvel cartoon to sell units, but god damn it....Supes has just about ZIP to do with Cap/Black Adam's rivalry.
Plus, he's got SO damn many powers, and is such a Godlike character...NOTHING can endanger or harm him, save ONE f*****g thing. ONE goddamn thing that's so rare, it may as well not exist. So where's the suspense if your hero cannot f*****g be hurt? Almost any of the other characters in the DCU are more interesting that the Big Blue Boy Scout. Even Bane. Superman is, to me, the essence of what makes a character lame: he's overpowered and under-rivaled.
Aside from obvious "joke" characters....how do you get much lamer than that?

Superman is, to me, the essence of what makes a character lame: he's overpowered and under-rivaled. He's also susceptible to magic. And he's gotten into fist-fights with other superpowered people, and without the use of kryptonite, they still held their own. Yeah, Kryptonite is his biggest weakness, but its not like its the only thing that can hurt him. |

Actually R-Man to be fair, the line of thinking that Superman can only be hurt by kryptonite is pretty outdated since magic can hurt and him and they have shown that as long as someone is on equal footing he can be hurt by "normal" means as well. Zod, Darkseid, Doomsday, have all hurt him just with 'normal' physical attacks.
That said I get your point.

He also has a bit of a problem with his lack of a resistance to psychic assault, but most heroes do. They just aren't as big a liability if they fall under a trance.

But in the end, he ALWAYS makes whoever he's facing look ultra-weak, because they given him literally their BEST shots and he might get a bloody nose, but he just shrugs it off and DESTROYS them. Outside of Doomsday and maybe Darkseid, who in the DCU is a legit threat to Superman's life? How much magic (and how powerful, at that) does it take to do him in? |
