The Technomancer
card-carrying scientician
Power to origin ratio is Saitama, no questions. 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups to "takes down literally anything"
That he can shoot because his eyes are portals to a dimension filled with concussive force.

I really hope you're right.

Batman is definitely one of the most unrealistic "just a human" superheroes. I've always disagreed with people who say hes just a dude in a suit and gadgets. He's also a super genius, peak human who is a pro at multiple forms of martial arts.

Would it be okay if I threw Captain America into this.
That is actually a great choice, although in all fairness, she is used sparsely and most of her big wins happened off-panel. Still, if taken seriously it is all rather implausible.

cyclops doesn't shoot lasers out of his eyes.
Well I guess that's that, then. I'll just assume he was talking shit to mess with superman's head. The next panel was him talking about his 14" dick, right?
Only if you give a reason and use a question mark.

A joke character who is on an Avengers team.
(I still think it's Flash, I just liked that answer)
Like Goku style or just like 2 Big Macs instead of one? These are the important questions.
Right here. Tooo strooong.

After I found this out I instantly thought The Flash was a bullshit superhero.
Avengers team lead by Deconstructed Cannonball and Sunspot, that is like the Avenger Arena Football team. Sure they are a Football team, but at the same time they are not meant to be taken seriously
Frequently is a stretch, the show and books remember it's a thing like once a year.

.....wouldn't he just super age extremely fast, die and decompose like one of those animal carcass time lapses in like 3 regular seconds?
Well I would say you're going to be disappointed with that mindset.
Going off of what Sibersk is saying, there is a character that starts out as small scrawny Japanese man and through the power of working out really hard he turns into a giant bald black man.
I think it was pre-upgrade Wally West that had this issue, he wasn't very fast and had to eat lots.

Are you telling me that her talking Galactus out of eating Earth was not 100% straight-faced serious? ;-)
Funny thing after Barry died Wally was depressed and subconsciously started limiting his speed. And it weaken his connection to the speedforce so that instead of using that energy for super speed he had to eat a shit ton of food..
When he got his head right that went away
Frankie Raye has talked Galactus out of eating Earth....it is not a big deal.
The Flash is the most bull shit superhero, not because he's overpowered. But because he's so overpowered and his enemies are super underpowered and still giving him hard times. Candidate for the most overpowered superhero ever that move at a speed of light shouldn't be concern with Mr.Freeze knockoff and a guy with boomerang.

I think he just perceived that time, not his body developing in that time. I think he would just get extremely bored with time being so long and kill himself in like a second. It would be like millennia of perceived time within that second.
Well, powerful is relative. She's basically the proof that the winner of a super-hero fight is whoever the writer wants.

Just like Batman and Spider-Man. The power gap is hilarious.
Batman the 1%-er beating up on destitute thugs.
They actually adress this several times. And your 2 examples happened to at one time be Pheonix, omni powerful cosmic entity, and Onslaught, omni powerful psionic...thing.
So neither are mentally sound. Xavier had so much shit burried in his mind (including the fact that he wanted to fuck Jean when she was young) that he created a being made out of psionic energy lol
People forget Xavier's darkside blew up a planet. And I am not talking Onsalught

All heroes who running with the "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" mantra.
You know they're going eventually retcon her to have Franklin Richard level powers all along that give her the ability to automatically win whenever the audience isn't watching no matter who she is fighting. Flash away for a panel and everything from the One Above All to the Multi-angled Ones are beaten and soundly. Or something like that.

How is any super hero who regenerates limbs instantly possible in terms of energy required?
Also when they regenerate heads how do they still have their memories as well as just basic adult function?

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
So ten Big Macs instead of one. Good, now we have a measurement system.

Even then, how do you perceive sound at that level. Shit sounds weird if you slow it down 8x. If your sense of perception is less than an attosecond, I imagine its like nothingness for a millennia before the next blip of sound.
IINM Superboy-Prime is stronger than regular Superman. He does not have any of the standard Superman weaknesses: mental attack, magic, kryptonite, etc.
I vote on any reality warping character.
Or Reed Richards. They are both too broken to exist and justify a full series to save the planet/universe
I seriously recommend her own comic Unbeatable Squirrel Girl. It is very different from what you expecte from a super hero comic and it is HILARIOUS. It is written by the dude who wrote Dinosaur Comics
Wasn't Hulking and Wiccan in it too ?
These super hero teams are a mess it is so hard to keep up =P

Applies to most ad-hoc teleportation powers as well. It just doesn't work. What do you teleport in relation to???

Yeah, that would blow. Another reason to consider him the most unrealistic. How can you tell what people are saying, and how can you speak in an understandable pace. I'm listening to what you're saying for years, and will spend years responding in a way you can understand me.
If someone had to think about their response for more than a millisecond I'd throat punch em. Spit it out!!
Well shes like a ghost, unless you go "ghosts would also fall through the earth"

The Hulk can regrow limbs (theoretically, as far as I know Hulk has never been de-limbed because of his sheer durability) because his biology works the same way as cancer cells, constantly growing.
Deadpool is the same way.

Yeah, and Hawkeye, Songbird, White Tiger and Power Man
To be fair it was SUPER WEIRD to see her there ... like it was a totaly serious issue with Cthulhu like villains and .... Chip Toe doing "squeack squick" noises.
