Edit: I looked the page up, Luthor said 10 feet, not 10 meters. Regardless, that's an official number, at least for the nebulous (in regards to Superman continuity prior to Secret Origins) and relatively brief post-Infinite Crisis pre-New 52 period. The number may have been different for other versions.

It's a pointless "weakness" anyway. In the majority of cases it just makes him "weak," and yet somehow villains are never able to kill him while he is under the effect.

Pretty much. God knows if I had powers and weaknesses, first thing I’m doing is figuring out how to mitigate/handle them, or never tell a soul about them. If I were a kryptonian, I’m not saying squat about my kryptonite weakness at the start-Lex figuring out and deducing kryptonite could harm him in the movie is still some of the most insane luck I’ve ever seen. Or if I were Spider-Man, nobody is going to learn about spider sense unless they’re psychic.

DCAU went out of its way to make Superman take a lot of hits. IMHO I think it works.

There’s this one problem with exploding rocks: You get more, tiny rocks

[@TwoToneShoes]

Same situation with The Flash. He's not really weak to "cold." He's gets stopped by absolute zero, which stops all moving particles and by definition instantly stops anyone and everything. Everything's weak to absolute zero. It is to Flash what Magic is to Superman.

[@shaden489]

Yeah but he still does have an ice weakness as the lack of friction can make it difficult for him to co troll his speed properly. He also has a weakness to certain types of stick traps that cause him to be unable to move

[@lhfirex]

I think a year or two ago Solid jj made a video making fun of Flash slipping on ice in some story though, so that's probably what they're referencing.

[@TwoToneShoes]

@@shaden489 Not really. Flash already goes so fast that any friction would cause fusion explosions if you're trying to be realistic about it. He's run in space before. Saying "he could slip" is funny because, well, Batman could also slip on a slippery surface if he's moving. Being forcibly immobilized is not a weakness, either. These are just things that are good against anyone. It's like saying Batman's weakness is aggressive strains of cancer, lol.

[@TwoToneShoes]

@@lhfirex Yeah, Batman called Flash a "Seasonal hero" in one of his more classic videos.

[@shaden489]

@@TwoToneShoes i mean technically a weakness isnt defined as something specific to that person so id say it counts as a weakness even if its a more generalized one. also as far as the ice thing goes flash has been put on ice plenty of times before and lost his footing i believe it happens several times in the justice league animated series alone.

Joker later found out a weakness for Superman, and let’s just say Supes wasn’t too happy about that .

[@jaidora]

Nor did Lois, that’s why he called Superman easy mode.

Joker who was powered by Mr. Myxyzpltlk canonically lost to Superman, let's say he wasn't happy about that.

To a similar effect the opening of DC Online shows a clever usage of his friends and loved ones as well as Kryptonite. Superman got worn down by a huge fight and was sun bathing out in space to heal and power up. The Legion of Doom takes that moment to rush the Justice League and pump Wonder Woman with liquid Kryptonite so when he rushes back to save her he gets taken off guard then Lex comes up behind him and stabs him with a Kryptonite Spear. Honestly pretty effective and would have worked if Brainiac didn’t show up seconds later

[@jaidora]

@ still won the metaphorical war

[@robertwyatt3912]

Wouldn’t the kryptonite vaporize, making it MORE deadly? Like you can’t destroy matter. It doesn’t just. Go away.

[@TheGruspastej]

Well. You CAN destroy matter. But probably not with a laser unless supermans eye lasers got some special weird-ass property.

[@lvlHive]

@@TheGruspastej I just assumed his lasers can do whatever he wants them to do after he kept using them to beam clash and overpower darkseids eye beams which literally erase things from existence, but oh the long list of weird things supermans eyes can do...

[@robertwyatt3912]

@ ok fair. Magic does exist.

[@naamadossantossilva4736]

It's Kryptonite,not Kryptonium.The molecular structure of the rock is implied to be essential for its effect,so tearing it apart would render it harmless.

There are other entities out there as strong or stronger than Superman. Easy. Shazam for one. And Shazam is a good guy. Not to mention there are a bunch of legitimately insane weapons out there in the DC universe. One of my favorites was something like a Dimensional Sniper Rifle that fired a dimensional bullet with kryptonite in it into Superman’s brain.
