Superman has done many Savage things without his Godpowers and Immortality. In Justice League unlimited Episode: Hereafter Kal-EL was sent 30.000 years in the Future and he was Depowered, but he build a Sword, he defeated a Wolfpack and Killed the Alpha and he beats up Vandal Savage. In Justice League Dark Apokolips war Superman was Depowered by Darkseid, he saved Raven from Killing herself, he hold his own against two Parademons, he defeated a Soldier with one single Punch and he wore Lex Luhtor's Armor and was able to use it. Ultraman could NEVER do that because like you said he's a Coward.
Unless I'm mistaken Superman has one other benefit: Intelligence. He possesses the knowledge of Kryptonian science which I never heard Ultraman rely on and if true is a powerful tool.
no he had access to such technology same as sups he has a hologram of his father that is teaching him the polar opposite of wat sups father is teaching him.Its just not mention that often since there isnt alot of comic issues that focuses him
I like how the crime syndicate world is basically the writers constantly trying to one-up how much shitter everything is. Like the Kents didn’t need to be dysfunctional, they were already under the control of an overpowered alien but the writers just wanted to add the ever slightest more fuel to that trash fire of a universe.
It is just me or this universe is giving me a lot of The Boys vibes. Imagine how terrified will be if Ultraman and Homelander become friends. And somehow they sealed their friendship by doing something messed up.
Well, they'd be friends...until one or the other became paranoid, or jealous, or just bored and tried to kill his 'friend'. Not a lot of loyalty in either of them.
@@waleslandofdragons8842 Not this again. Hearing the fight between him and Goku is like saying that Iron Fist is strong enough to beat Superman with a punch or Superman can take down Iron Fist no matter how powerfull are his fist. Enough with this argument, please.
Considering how the Boys universe is dark, I can see Ultraman from the Forever Evil storyline being represented. Considering the fact that compound v acts like a drug, and Ultraman in that story is addicted to kryptonite in a way A-Train in the show is addicted to the chemical, it would make sense to have him not only drunk on power but abusing kryptonite as well if that’s even in that universe, in the same matter. Plus it’d be sorta funny to see billy the butcher using that as some sort of blackmail against him or using that to somehow have Ultraman recklessly kill himself or the crime syndicate in some “coke fueled” kryptonite binge/rage.
The true super power of superman was never his battery of powers. After all there's been countless clones. It's been his moral compass, his restraint with his almost godlike powers. So when you make an evil superman, I don't know why you are bothering to compare. It's no longer Superman.
I'm not the only one who thinks that Henry Cavill gives off Ultraman vibes wayy better than he did as Superman right?. Cause Cavill would make a badass Ultraman
I don’t see Cavil as Ultraman. Honestly I can see Anthony Starr play as Ultraman. The closest thing to seeing him as Ultraman is Homelander in the Boys.

The craziest thing the Crime Syndicate ever did was call themselves the Justice Syndicate thinking that would convince everyone they were heroes, not villains. What's worse is that Superman fell for it. then again Superman can be a bit gullible.
I've always been a fan the Crime Syndicate stories. Two versions of Ultraman not mentioned one, he was an astronaut and changed by aliens. The second is the appearance on Smallville.
There are multiple versions of Ultraman in the comics: Ultraman of Pre-Crisis Earth-Three (The first and original Ultraman; a Kryptonian powered by kryptonite; overexposure to kryptonite causes paralysis). Ultraman of Post-Zero Hour Anti-Matter universe (human astronaut powered by anti-kryptonite; loses powers when exposed to white solar radiation). Ultraman of Post-Infinite Crisis Earth-3 (Kryptonian powered by yellow solar energy; vulnerable to kryptonite and magic). Ultraman of Post-Infinite Crisis Anti-Matter universe (human astronaut powered by kryptonite; later modified into a vampiric being, becoming vulnerable to sunlight). Ultraman of Post-Flashpoint Earth 3 (Kryptonian powered by kryptonite; vulnerable to sunlight). Ultraman of Post-Flashpoint Earth 43 (vampiric Kryptonian powered by solar energy; vulnerable to wooden stakes and doubly weak to red solar radiation).
In this Universe, on Earth-3, Lois Lane betrays "Superman" with both his best friend ("Batman"), and his mortal enemy, "Lex" Luthor. That is crazy when you think about it this way! 8:20 "Grid, track down the other locations of Kryptonite. And tell no one else." - Ultraman
I love the movie, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths! However The Crime Syndicate did not appear in Justice League: TAS but instead were replaced by the Justice Lords.
And it does make me wonder does the crime syndicate has like at least a plan to take Ultraman down if he ever tries to like betrayed them because he's literally powerful than all of them combined.
The evil Wonder Woman of the Crime Syndicate is Mary Marvel of the Shazam family according to the animated movie based on the characters. Also Ultraman’s weaknesses is blue kryptonite which is the opposite of Superman’s weakness being green kryptonite.
The problem with Ultraman is the silly original origin. And gaining power from kryptonite. 1. He is only Superman counterpart like this... Is doesn't fit with any explanations of alternate Earths/Universes of DC. 2. DC established that Kryptonite from one universe has absolutely no effect on kryptonians from an alternate universe (* Superboy Prime) 3. The various "Crisis" have retro'd Ultraman several times...plus the DCAU version in CRISIS ON TWO EARTHS. Each time, the writers reinterpret him. There is absolutely no consistent portrayal of him. I always loved comics. Had a huge collection. Thousands of comics. Filled a big garage. And a big basement....with many many of 1st Editions like OMAC, ETERNALS, and specials...like the extra large sized SUPERMAN vs SPIDER-MAN crossovers...where Spidey got to ridee in the batmobile and Dr.Doom had a frank conversation with Superman.. But I quit. Got rid of everything because I got sick n tired of the reboots and reinterpretations. No continuity. Now I just watch the hero films when they come out. Marvel is at least trying to keep continuity in their films. But DC still doesnt get it. And probably will never understand the fan base. And so...DC will always struggle while Marvel will keep getting on rolling along.
7:37 - taking into account that said lighting was the one invoked by black adam when he shouted shazam, althought I don't know how much damage this attack would do to Superman, but considering that the lightning has magical origins, I can suspect that much more than what we are allowed to see, so not a small feat to be honest ...
Boye my traumatic brain injury really put me in a bad place I don't even remember any of the stories it seems it seems I have a whole block of memory loss
It would be really interesting to see a live action version of the Crime Syndicate vs. the MCU Avengers (the 6 members from Age of Ultron: Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, and Vision), the screenplay or story could be somewhat similar to Spiderman Far from Home (with the Crime Syndicate crossing over from another dimension).

Isn't this where the Brightburn story got its inspiration?
I'm surprised nobody mention about the name, it's kal il not kal two
When DC says the emblem isn’t supposed to be an S, that’s bullshit, because that is clearly a U.
Love the content but... can you please invest in getting a better mic? The P sound pops far too much.

You should have mentioned how in the comics Ultraman pulverized a bunch of green kryptonite and snorted it like cocaine.
The Crime Syndicate is one of the best Justice League villains. I hope that they will appear in Superman/Lois and Legend of Tomorrow down the road.
