[QUOTE="ValhallaGH, post: 5089124, member: 41187"] I can build a (very high point) PL 0 that can move planets around and dive into stars. Immunities are cheap for what they do, and super-strength is not capped by your PL. :D GL is impressive as all get out, but none of them are as absolutely powerful as Superman (barring those crazy avatar-spirit things like Ion). What they have going for them is an extremely flexible power set and creativity; which is 99% of what you need to be an amazing hero. 90% of the lantern corps is PL 9-10, with a couple of the most powerful members reaching towards PL 11 or 12. The Guardians are probably PL 15-16, when they aren't PL X characters (which they were for a very long time). Other than the Plot characters (who are villains of one sort or another), the only Marvel guys I can think of to rival Supes are Thor, Sentry, and Hulk (whose strength is a plot device, though a carefully regulated one). All the others that come close are some kind of plot-device villain when they could rival the Man of Steel (Silver Surfer, Galactus, Thanos, etc.). [/QUOTE]
