There have been many great made up superheroes, and one of the least mentioned is a hero by the name of Goku. Many people believe that Goku may just be one of the greatest super heroes that will ever exist, however he still is not very well known superhero such as Superman.Goku is a part of an alien race called saiyans, and is the main fictional character created by Akira Toriyama for the Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and Dragon Ball GT series. Compared to Superman Goku is a better super hero, because he is both faster and stronger, he has faced far greater threats, and he has a better personality.
First of all, Goku is both faster and stronger than Superman. Goku can move at the speed of light instantly teleporting from planet to planet. Not only is he able to move very fast his punches and kicks are so very fast. Viewers can’t even tell how many punches he has thrown! Know that I have seen Superman, and yes, he is fast. However, even though Superman is faster than a speeding bullet. A speeding bullet compares nothing to traveling at the speed of light! Superman’s punches are even slow and sluggish. Not only is Goku fast, but also incredibly strong. Goku can train in over 100x times the gravity of Earth and has been known to send his enemies flying halfway across the Earth in one punch. Yes, Superman is very strong and can punch people through walls. However it’s mainly only just one wall compared to a punch that sends someone half way across the earth.
Secondly, Goku has fought and defeated far more powerful enemies than Superman has. For instance, one of Goku’s earliest and weakest enemies Frieza can blow up an entire planet with one finger, Yet, Superman could barely handle an eye beam from one of his enemiesDarkseid, and it cou...

GT and was even there to both give advice and help with the creation of it. Even if that was the case; the same could be said about Superman. Since Superman has had a lot of different creators for both comics and cartoons about him. Still, even with this being said,Goku does not need any powers from Dragon Ball GT to beat Superman.
With this being said Goku is a better super hero than Superman simply, because Goku can move at the speed of light and punch enemies half way across the earth. Goku has taken down enemies that can blow up entire planets with one finger, and has a far better personality when showing how much he cares for earth and his loved ones. Goku is a better super hero than Superman and should be recognized as one of the best heroes of all time.
Heroes, the unordinary beings with extravagant abilities, from powers and competence to skills and talents. Heroes are people who are idealized by society for their courage and individuality. Iconic and well recognized heroes like Hercules, Superman, Spiderman and Achilles are some of the few heroes known around. All heroes have a similarity to each other, for example Beowulf and Batman. While both can be considered great heroes, they differ significantly, yet are similar in other ways.
Let’s discuss a little bit of comic book history for starters. The most iconic superhero in all of American comic book history has got to be Superman. He was created near the beginning of superhero comic books and debuted in Action Comics #1 in 1938[1]. He would remain as the blueprint for many superheroes for years to come as the atypical white American male. But as the years go by there were comic book heroes that came out that go against this archetype such as Wonder
On one end of the spectrum lays Superman, an alien who from birth is comparable to god, and on the opposite side lays Lex Luthor, a genius human who comes from nothing and created a financial empire. Superman
If Batman alone was tasked with saving the world, we would all die. If Batman was tasked with saving a cat from a rabid dog, the cat would die. If Batman was tasked with walking an old women across the street, she would trip over his cape and break her hip. Batman is an inferior “superhero” - and that is reality. Here is why:
It's very hard for me to be silly about Superman because I've seen first hand how he actually transforms people's lives. I have seen children dying of brain tumors who wanted as their last request to be able to talk to me, and have gone to their graves with a peace brought on by knowing that their belief in this kind of character is intact. I've seen that Superman really matters. It's not Superman the tongue-in-cheek cartoon character they’re connecting with; they're connecting with something very basic: the ability to overcome obstacles, the ability to persevere, the ability to understand difficulty and to turn your back on it. (“Superman Through the Ages”)
Dragon Ball z: The Great Genkai-Dama is by Akira Toriyama is about peace this book reveals who is the strongest out of two characters in the book.This book is a series so it starts off at Goku in mid battle with his enemy Frieza.. Goku is severely damaged and Frieza is too but not as much as Goku so far Frieza is winning the battle. Goku's teammates tr to help distract Frieza so goku can charge up one of his moves called Spirit Bomb which is a massive ball of energy at least as big as the sun. He is charging it up with the energy of all the living things in the universe. After a while he has it charged up Frieza still hasn't noticed and right when he is about to throw it frieza notices and has no time to react so he tries his best to reflect
The origins of Goku the main character from Dragon Ball Z mirrors the origins of Superman from the comics. Both characters are aliens. Goku comes from a warrior race known as the Saiyan’s while Superman comes from the technologic advance race known as the Kryptonians. The fathers of both characters were known as the best of what they did. Goku’s father was known as the strongest Saiyan and Superman’s father was known as krypton’s smartest scientist. Additionally, when both characters were babies they were sent to earth in space pods right before the destruction of their home planets. Goku’s planet was destroyed by an evil emperor while Superman’s was destroyed by the planets unstable radioactive core. Once they both landed on earth they were
Batman and superman are similar in many ways, both of them have same gender. Both of them have same mission “save people and save world” from bad evils. So both of the comic book heroes try to save people from the bad evils by any possible ways. The third similarity is both of the heroes don’t kill their enemies but both have different approaches to deal with the enemies. This is true that both the superheroes do not kill their enemies. Superman don’t kill the people because of his supernatural powers, and he believes that his power is not above than the law and order. By doing that he also sends a good message in the society. Just like superman batman also don’t kill
“It’s a bird, it’s a plane no it’s Superman!” I’m pretty sure we’ve all heard this before, Superman is a superhero that was created by Writer Jerry Siegel and Artist Joe Shuster in 1938. Superman “Kal-El” is a human like alien from the Planet Krypton, that was sent down to Earth as an infant. Given the name Clark Kent by his new adopted parents, he learned to keep his powers a secret, until the day he needed it most to save his planet and loved ones. Superman is a very famous and well known superhero, he is also an inspiration for many people.
Afterall, that is what differentiates a superhero from an ordinary person, right? Wrong. Key Man and Batman both have the ability to fly, however, Batman relies on his cape to fly whereas Key Man posses the natural ability to fly like his fellow avian friends. For Key Man, it was not until he was restrained by handcuffs that he realized he had powers, then he started to figure out and fine tune them. For Batman, he never had that epiphany moment where he realized he contained a supernatural ability. The reason is simple: Batman does not have any natural powers, yet he is still recognized as one of the most popular and skilled superheroes. The reason for this is because Batman realized something not many have: Anyone can be a superhero, one just has to possess boldness, determination, and
When you here superhero you might think of Spider-Man or superman, but the common hero maybe the guy next to you in the subway or the woman working at Walmart. Heros are supposed to help and be there when they are needed, Spider-Man helps everyone that needs it. Superman flies and helps keep the city secured. This shows how heroes are and what they do.
To begin, I believe that children adore Superman because he is a hero. He protects the world that children live in and keep them safe from harm. Children embrace him because he fights villains and has awesome superpowers. Furthermore, children love Superman because they could potentially be just like him when they become adults. If one were to breakdown the word Superman into two words they would clearly see why people love this superhero. The word super means very large, powerful or pleasant and man means a human being or person that symbolizes the species without reference to sex. Children embrace Superman because it is possible for them to be powerful, heroic people regardless of their gender. Anyone who is kind could save someone from a
Growing up, we all have had a childhood superhero we wanted to be. In my case, it was the visitor from another planet who is faster than a speeding bullet, who is more powerful than a locomotive, and can leap tall buildings in a single bound, who else but Superman. Ever since that day when my father brought home that Betamax tape of the first movie, portrayed by the late great Christoper Reeve, I was hooked. The iconic “S” shield on the chest, the cape, the bright blue, red and yellow suit, who wouldn't wanted to be him? Of course everybody does, even adults wanted to fly and have all his super powers. This character and this movie started it all. Making over $300,000,00 at the box office worldwide, meaning it's a success, which was unheard of during that time from a comic book adaptation. Despite the success of the first movie, the succeeding ones failed. That being said, during the past two decades, movies based on comic book heroes were a hit or miss, mostly a miss. But not until 2008, when Marvel Studios single-handedly revitalized the comic book movie industry, with one of their most popular character, not the web slinger Spiderman, or the raging green monster we all know as the Hulk, but with the man with the advanced
Admittedly, Superman has powers. For example, Superman can fly and save people from buildings that are falling. Also, Superman can shoot lasers out of his eye, and burn villains. Another example is Superman’s super breath. When Superman uses that he blows people or buildings away. Also, Superman has super super strength which can help when there's a plane falling to the ground. (That happened in Superman Returns). Another power Superman has, is super hearing. Superman has this so he can hear who is having trouble with
The superhero genre has been around for a long time, and has gotten widely popular since. Critic Tim Dirks said, “Although superheroes had already taken over TV, it took until 1978 for the first big-budget feature film to feature a superhero” (Dirks). Starting with the classic hero, Superman, who was introduced by DC comics in 1936, to more modern heroes like Gwenpool, introduce by Marvel comics in 2016. As stated by critic Caitlin Foster, “in the past decade the filmic superhero has increasingly grown in presence, to the point of becoming synonymous with the Hollywood summer blockbuster” (Foster). To clarify, superhero films have gotten so popular they mean the same as Hollywood summer movies. Originally, superheroes were aimed more towards children, it gave them a sense of creativity and allowed their imaginations to flow. The abilities of being able to fly, have super speed, or super strength is what every kid dreamed of. Later, these superheroes started having a mature feel, attracting more adult audiences. The stories were now
