Superman and Supergirl

They've never once been depicted since her debut as being even in the same ball park power wise

I mean, if you want a bullshit excuse to cover the obvious reason, Clark did grow up on a farm.

>>93444456
Post-crisis, Clark was a hardworking farmboy who's powers didn't kick in until he was older.
Kara left Krypton looking as she does.

Kara was a normal girl on Krypton and Clark grew up in a farm.

Can Supes become obese?

>>93444456
I want to see more of them working together, hanging out. Acting like friends, getting to know eachother.

Supergirl is kept so seperate from Clark and all their interactions have forced drama. And the need to go "shes more powerful than he is, possibly" bullshit.

>>93444456
>Does that mean Superman is exercising in his Fortress of Solitude for purely aesthetic reasons?
Yes.

>>93444586
im pretty sure that was #8 of the current supergirl run

>>93444586

He and Lois should adopt her so Jon can have a cute Onee-sama.

>>93444456

>about equal

He is a man. He has many times the muscle mass and muscle density a woman has. Naturally.

You wouldn't realize this because you're either a woman or some sort of approximation.

Maybe Supergirl just presents herself as having the physique of a cardio bunny.

>Supergirl in that pic
>not muscular

y'know how I can tell you're fat?

>>93444500
>a bullshit excuse

But it isn't.

Clark is a farmboy, and Kara is a spoiled rich bitch

10/10

>>93444456
In case you weren't aware, literally no amount of muscle mass could ever allow someone to break the fundamental laws of physics the way a Kryptonian does.
Muscles pretty much have nothing to do with Kryptonian superpowers.

Heresy.

Anon, it's not magic super strength.

Their powers are cannonically determined by their biology, by the traits of their species.

It is very much so in their muscles or rather the cells that make them up.

It's not really based on Muscle though. I think the current explanation is a kind of telekinesis or something which is how they hold up things that they would just punch through due to the weight of the object.

Kara was a normal girl and then got powers Clark was a farming who got powers after working out a bunch on a farm....

>>93445856

Its not at all.

That's just a cop out by fans for writers and artists who have for years ignored that very heavy things cannot be lifted from a tiny part of their structure.

Superman is not the only one to "hold up things that they would just punch through".

Have you seen actual women fighters?
They're slim. No woman gets "muscular" unless they're taking steroids.

It depends on the weight class. Joanna is a straw weight fighter.

>>93446111
so why would people assume supergirl couldn't be a lighter weight class?

>>93446415
she doesn't have much reason to "bulk up"

>>93444466
JESUS THOSE DIDGETS

Because comic books. Fuck you.

>>93445527
59 is best followed by 83.

Why do the stupid fetishists here constantly post pics of disgusting muscle women instead of chicks like these two?

Why do women have to be fugly to be strong?

Pleb.

>>93444582
Back in the 90s when Supes got his electric powers, he got fat in his human form because he didn't have his Kryptonian genetics keeping his metabolism going. But he wasn't visibly fat. People just remarked on his slight gut.

>>93444466

I'm not exactly sure where you're going with this, but Supergirl has been shown to be weaker than Superman, stronger than Superman, and roughly equal to Superman at various points in the past.

The 60s version? Weaker, at least partially from being younger than Superman, but it was some product of the times.

The late-70s, 80s? Writers went out of their way to show Supergirl pulling the same/equivalent stunts as her cousin.

The attached pic was from a time when Supergirl was depicted as being more powerful than Superman.

So if you're saying she has always been shown to be weaker, well you're wrong. If you're saying she has always been shown to be either weaker or stronger, you're still wrong.

>>93444456
>their super strength levels being about equal
They very much are not.

>>93448320
That's because Superman can control his power perfectly, Supergirl can't.

Clark works out, man. Even an obese Kryptonian would be super strong on Earth. Just not as strong as Clark.

>>93445358
With Black out of the way Jon's power are going to grow, and with them living in Metropolis the risk of exposure increases. Kara would make an excellent babysitter that goes on adventures with Jon an Damian.

>>93445527
1998 was a very good year.
