Genius billionaire Tony Stark built the first Iron Man suit in a cave with a box of scraps, then spent decades upgrading it to go toe-to-toe with gods. The latest suit features repulsor beams, a uni-beam, nano-regeneration, and enough firepower to give small countries anxiety. Proof that with enough money, intelligence, and engineering, a man in a tin can can outclass most of the Marvel roster.

Born Kal-El on the doomed planet Krypton, Superman is the gold standard against which all other heroes are measured. Powered by Earth's yellow sun, he possesses near-limitless strength, heat vision that can cut through dimensions, and speed that rivals the Flash. His only real weakness is a glowing green rock—and even that barely slows him down.
