Superman has (repeatedly) gone FTL and used fine motor control at FTL. Superman has repeatedly defeated reality warpers beyond what the Doc has been shown capable of. The Doc is constrained by the limits of scientific laws and Superman is not. Moreover, Superman has on multiple occasions bested and tanked effects by reality warpers who aren't as limited as the Doc. Superman has shown this multiple times. The feats you're claiming Doc is capable of are far beyond anything Doc has ever done. Far beyond. Superman is literally everything that Doctor Manhattan cannot understand. The mere ability to go FTL, not to mention hear sounds in a vacuum light years away moments after the sound is made, would make Doc's head explode just trying to rationalize it. From Doc's perspective, Superman is a god. An impossible thing. To Superman, Doc is just another opponent. Dealing with him is just a matter of routine. |
Lol. "Dr. Manhattan is constrained by the limits of scientific laws" Ummmm...... Okee dokee. Doc is just as much an impossibility as Superman. I mean, the thing Supes did when he was at VEGA and heard the soound and travelled back to earth in 10 minutes or whatever, that's nothing compared to how the Doc would know about that fight before it happened. Just like he would know of Superman's every move before Superman even knew.
