Who is DC Comics' Sodam Yat? Daxamite "Ultimate Green Lantern!"

This video explores the abilities, powers, and origin of the DC Comics character "Sodam Yat." From growing up with his xenophobic Daxamite race on the planet Daxam, getting a Green Lantern power ring while preparing to leave his misguided homeworld, gaining superpowers when near a yellow sun similar to his race's genetic cousins Kryptonians, being the fulfillment of an ancient prophecy of Qull that was passed down by Abin Sur, successfully defending the planet Mogo during the Sinestro Corp. War, gaining the immense power of the Ion entity, getting his first major defeat at the hands of Superboy Prime who exploited his Daxamite vulnerability to lead, readily engaging powerful supervillains like Darkseid, Mongul, and the Anti-Monitor, temporarily sacrificing himself to turn the red sun of Daxam into a yellow sun to empower his race for battle with the Mongul Corps., being captured by the shape-shifting Durlans and then freed by his fellow Green Lantern Corps., to reforming the G.L. Corps in the 31st century when he is the last surviving Lantern; Let's take a look at one of the most powerful DC superheroes, and the Daxamite who was prophesied to become the last and "The Ultimate Green Lantern." This includes a short, canon character biography and my own opinionated "Sage Rating," which I use to give ratings of comic books and science fiction characters.

That lead weakness really hindered him from being a 10. But its understandable to wanna weaken a guy who basically is Supes with GL power.

He earned my eternal respect the moment he fought Prime

[@NumeroUnoApolloTheFirst]

Actually it wasn't an evenly matched fight..Superboy was beating the fuck out of him, to the point Sodam Yat just could not think of any other way to overpower him. Everytime he tried something, Superboy would overcome it.

[@NewSage]

+Monarch v - Note that I said the fight was "basically" an even match (or something to that extent 😅). Not many folks can 1-on-1 with that OP lil Kryptonian, though! Hey... Gotta hype Yat up and give a him a lil shine, in his OWN video! Prime can't take all of the spotlight!... or can he?! 🤔😅

[@SandyTheTryhard]

Monarch v fam he fought one on one with that monster for a lot longer than 80% of the people that tried him xD i call that a good even match

[@valdr2286]

Monarch v yeah but sodam got more than a few good licks in I believe he lost cause that was the first time he was under a yellow sun so he was still learning to use his powers

If I remember correctly, Mon-El, another Daxamite, made a serum that cures Daxamites of their lead weakness. So really, aren't Daxamites able to be stronger than Kryptonians?

[@jonathanathor117]

Why hasn't superman made a serum to remove his weakness to kryptonite. It would a big f you to batman and especially lex Luther. I think the daxamites have a slower rate of absorb solar radiation than kryptonians. They can absorb any amount but their body are slower to process it than kryptonians.

[@Havsue]

Kryptonian are stronger because they're pure blood

[@delpantion6045]

I might have been a little harsh on your video of Superman Prime and a couple of your other videos. However, I got to tell the truth on a side that isn't quite shown, in comic book arguments. It's the same old story of "I don't like the Beatles But I like the Rolling Stones. I don't like John Wayne but I like Clint Eastwood. I don't like Michael Jackson but I like Prince" I think you get where I'm coming from. However this is pretty mainstream superhero. Whom by the way, is getting a lot of attention as of recently! And I got to say, definitely hit the nail on the head with this one. I would probably give him an eighth in my opinion but then again I don't have my own KZbin channel. It's very fair what you say about him and he seems like an original concept from Concepts that are already out!!!!!!!! I also love the fact that this guy can totally beat the crap out of Superboy Prime. All he needs to do is face him in outer space!!!! Let's see you try to use lead then motherfuker!!

[@davidortiz3094]

dèl Păntión He would still lose. Fighting in space would make no difference. Have you seen what Superboy Prime did to the Lanterns in space? Superboy Prime is hands down one of the top strongest people in DC comics. He even tortured 5th dimensional beings. When it comes to fighting, stay away from Superboy Prime unless you have a plan to trap him somewhere or take away his powers. He's also immune to magic and kryptonite

[@hermp1174]

So prime won because he had an advantage? Would love to see this fight with Sodom having some kryptonite to even the score.
