The Hulk.
Or Deadpool, since he can break the fourth wall- although others can do this too, I should imagine.

if we are just counting comic bookesque heroes then that guy from heroes who obtains everyones abilities after being near them. if we are counting anyone who is heroic and feels super then I'm going to have to say Goku, if we are counting anything, then that really big ass robot from the end of Gurren laggan, because he threw multi verses at people.

Luckily, the breadth of Superman's powers has toned down over the years and it's just intelligent application of his base half-dozen or so powers. And the point I was making about Greek gods is that Superman did not return to life due to any power. He simply chose to return. Resurrection of characters is not exactly uncommon and not all of them require continuity shattering events. In terms of raw power, Superman is up there, but isn't the best. The Hulk is physically stronger and more indestructible (being actually, properly unkillable). I'm convinced the only reason Superman beat him in Marvel vs. DC was due to popularity and not actual power level. Captain Marvel (aka Shazam) is pretty much Superman without the planet-dying angst meets Earth-patriotism. Hell, the two characters look nearly identical except for the costume and have nearly identical powers. Oh and Captain Marvel is not weak to a stupid green rock. All I'm saying is that Superman is not all-powerful, he's simply "all-popular".

Saying you can't kill Superman because he's Superman is not a power. It's proof of he's enduring nature as a heroic archetype. His unwillingness to give up in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds is what makes him a hero, but it's not a power.
The power of willpower is in itself a power. It even has power in its title "Will Power", I mean can you name one superhero in any comic that beat the man of steel one on one in a real fight? Or better yet can you name a villian that permanently killed the man of steel without continuity.

I guess. I just feel that it's a little too meta to be a legit argument. I mean, Superman can't be killed because he's Superman. It's a round-about, but very accurate statement. The Man of Steel embodies an unquenchable hope for the future. It wouldn't be a very good symbol if you could actually kill it. I just feel that that is a little too abstract in a super powers vs. super-powers debate. You can gauge how strong he is, how invincible, what weaknesses and so on and compare them to other characters, it gets really fuzzy when you start adding in things that aren't really powers per say, but are more a willing suspension of disbelief on the part of the audience. In all reality, Superman can be killed, permanently. Kryptonite can kill Superman. Other Kryptonians can as well, which is an extension of the first weakness. That's point of having an achillie's heel after all. Wouldn't be much of a weakness if it wasn't lethal. But no author would dare kill off Superman permanently because that would mean the deconstruction of a symbol a company spent decades building up. So they wrote around it and brought him back in a way that suggests he's unkillable, but really they're never ever going to kill Superman again. That was a one-shot story arc. You don't get to do that twice. So it becomes more of an informed power than a real one.

Or maybe I'm reading too much into this. Really, you're right. I can't think of anyone else that has come back without having to resort to weird continuity re-writes. And since no writer has tried to kill Superman since, I don't know if he would just come back of not. I just feel it was written as more of a one shot deal. Superman failed ONCE. And then he came back from the dead to set things right. It's implied that he will never let himself fail in such a way ever again. And functionally, he hasn't since they haven't written Death and Return of Superman 2: The Read-Deadening (thank God):p

I'm not going to say Batman because that joke is getting old.

Instead I'm going to say Iron Man, why? Because he smashed Sentry with the entire fucking Helicarrier that's why.

Darwin, he automatically adapts to any situation. He is perfectly suited with infinite potential, he could be faster, stronger, or smarter than anyone.
I'm pretty sure that is not how evolution works. ;)

Besides, is there even a comic book character named Darwin, or are you really talking about the 19th century scientist who stands as the father of modern evolution by natural selection, and is despised by evangelical biblical literalist the world over?
Can't tell if joking... or just haven't discovered Google yet.
