["Son Goku." Boomstick introduced the first fighter.]
["Superman." Wiz introduced the second fighter.]
["It's time to answer the ultimate question, and we're taking it all into play!" Boomstick exclaimed.]
["We're examining Superman's extensive mainline comic book canon. Given Dragon Ball Super's contentious continuities, we'll include all three, just to be thorough, plus Dragon Ball Heroes." Wiz explained.]
["He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick." Boomstick introduced themselves.]
["And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle." Wiz said, as a screen then shows a picture of Goku and Superman.]
Across the countless multiverse, the sight of the first two combatants left everyone stunned. In the real worlds, everyone bursts into cheers as they instantly recognised those two characters. Fans across the world's cheered in excitement as everyone have debated before who would win in a fight. It seems that they will finally get their answer.
Meanwhile, in fantasy and Isekai universes, they were equally shocked, especially those that they have been isekai'd/reincarnated since they have read the manga/comic books about those two before.
In the world dominated by heroes and villains, they can all tell that these two fight in the name of justice, much to the villains disappointment.
However in two universes, their reactions are quite different compared to the rest of them.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Capsule Corporation
"I'm going to be first in this Death Battle?! ALRIGHT!" Goku cheered in excitement, the fact that he's going to fight first and with a new opponent? He can't wait to meet this guy!
Vegeta however scowled, 'Tch, of course Kakarot will be the first one to fight.'
Krillin and Piccolo were shocked to see their friend Goku being chosen to fight in this Death Battle.
"Ah great, seems even in the entire Omniverse, Goku can't help himself but to challenge anyone, including this Superman guy." Krillin complained while shaking the back of his head.
"Indeed." Piccolo said, noticing the fact that they are manga characters.
Chichi, Gohan and Goten are also surprised that they're husband/ father is appearing in this Death Battle.
Gohan sighed, "Well, at least Dad's excited about this."
"Yeah, I bet Dad can this guy easily!" Goten exclaimed eagerly.
"I hope that Goku wins." Chichi said, hoping that Goku wins, despite it being a simulation.
Beerus' Planet
"Oh my, it seems that Goku is going to fight first Lord Beerus." Whis said, while Beerus is lying down under a tree.
"Well that's a surprise, still that Superman guy will definitely give Goku a run for his money." Beerus said, interested to see how this plays out.
{DC universe}
Watchtower
"So your going to fight first in this Death Battle huh Superman?" Flash said, while patting Superman's back.
Superman chuckled, "Well I'm surprised that I'll be appearing in this Death Battle. But I'm sure that I'll try my best."
"This Goku fellow looks pretty strong." Wonder woman analysed Superman's opponent.
Batman however looks at the screen with a cold look on his face. 'They have mentioned that we are fictional characters, it looks like they were telling the truth.' He thought while noticing the comic books of Superman. 'That means that someone out there in the Omniverse knows all of our secret identities, if it weren't for those memetic hazards, it would cause worldwide chaos and our enemies would exploit that.'
His eyes narrowed at the screen, 'Then I need to prepare a lot of contingencies once this is over.'
Kent Farm
Inside of the Kent Farm, Jonathan and Martha Kent looked at their television screen, surprised that their son is participating in the Death Battle.
"Clark, I hope you'll be safe." Martha said, worried that their son might die again.
"Don't worry Martha." Jonathan said, while placing a hand on his wife's shoulder. "He'll be fine, I'm sure of it."
["Faraway in an enchanted land, an old master found a boy, and marveled at his uncommon strength. This is the story of Son Goku." Wiz explained, showing a picture of a young Goku being held up by Grandpa Gohan.]
["Chances are if you watched some localized anime, you can thank this guy!" Boomstick said.]
["Inspired by martial arts films and his wife's interest in Chinese culture, Akira Toriyama crafted the story, and the character, that would define generations to come." Wiz said.]
The screen then shows the Goat himself, Akira Toriyama.
All of the real worlds recognised that person as the creator of Dragon Ball and they all know that he died recently, so they all bowed their heads in respect and hoped that he lived peacefully in the afterlife.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Capsule Corporation
Everyone is shocked to see that human is actually their creator of their universe.
"Is that our creator?" Vegeta asked, shocked that a human being of all races is their creator.
"I don't get it, isn't Zenny supposed to be the king of everything?" Goku asked, confused.
"That is true." Whis said, as both he and Beerus teleported from Beerus' Planet to Capsule Corporation where everyone is located at.
"Zeno sama is the Omni King, but it would appears that even he must be created by someone else. Who knew that person would be a human." Whis explained.
"So it's true, we really are fictional characters." Piccolo said, shocked at this revelation.
["Dragon Ball! Kakarot was born a low-class Saiyan on the planet Vegeta, narrowly escaped its destruction by Frieza, and was raised on Earth by happy old Grandpa Gohan." Boomstick explained Goku's backstory.]

["Not just raised, but trained. Gohan began Goku's teachings in martial arts, which he would find to be his true calling under the guidance of Master Roshi. Specifically, he learned the Kame-Sennin Ryu style, which focuses on discipline and tenacity, both of which strongly define Goku's character." Wiz revealed.]
["The more he learned, the more he wanted to improve. This little low-class monkey boy would prove that hard work and dedication can beat raw talent. Within just a few years, he was so strong, the only worthy teachers left were gods!... and a talking cat, but mostly GODS! When you're training to dodge lightning, you know you're a few leagues over everyone else." Boomstick exclaimed.]
Everyone was shocked to find out that he was strong enough that Gods were willing to teach him and can dodge lightning at a very young age, which proves that he's no ordinary fighter.
{One Punch Man Universe}
S-Class Meeting Room
"This Kame-Sennin Ryu style is definitely interesting." Silverfang muttered under his breath.
"He's definitely strong enough to be in the S-Class that's for sure." Atomic Samurai chuckled.
Tanktop Master wished that he can meet this Goku and have a spar with him to test his capabilities.
{Hunter X Hunter Universe (Before Palace Invasion)}
"Wow! This Goku is so cool!" Gon said in awe.
Killua is impressed that Goku was able to dodge lightning especially at a young age.
"Yeah, he would make a pretty good hunter." He said.
["He did have a slight advantage: Saiyans are naturally superhuman. They also take Nietzsche's famous words, "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger," very, very literally." Wiz said.]
["It's almost unfair how much of a boost in power they get after they're hurt." Boomstick continued.]
["While Saiyans like Vegeta may have abused this trait, it suits Goku. No matter how many times you knock him down, he will get back up, stronger than before." Wiz pointed out.]
{Rwby Universe}
Team RWBY dorm room
Yang was in awe at Goku's resilience and determination to never give up.
"Now that is awesome." Yang smirked.
"Goku is certainly a tough person, especially since he has no Aura." Weiss noted that Aura was not even mentioned.
"Maybe Aura doesn't exist in that world." Blake pointed out. "There are dozens of universes out there so maybe they have something similar to Aura."
"Who cares! I'm definitely supporting him!" Ruby cheered.
["It helps that he knows so many cool combat moves, like the Kamehameha!" Boomstick exclaimed.]
["An incredibly powerful technique that focuses one's ki into a single point for a devastating beam." Wiz explained Goku's signature attack.]
["So challenging, it took Roshi decades to master, but Goku got it in like five seconds!" Boomstick revealed.]
["It's incredibly versatile, with over 50 different variations. For example, Goku can curve the beam after firing, or even shoot it from his feet." Wiz added.]
{Street Fighter Universe}
Ryu can feel the massive amounts of Ki that is emitting from the screen and he can tell Goku's Ki is superior to his own.
Nevertheless, he smiled knowing that he still has a long way to go to become a total master of his fighting style.
And perhaps he can learn some of Goku's techniques to add to his own.

["But unlike most Saiyans, he doesn't just use ki to blow shit up. Moves like the Solar Flare, Energy Landmine, and God Bind require a lot more strategy and planning." Boomstick said, while the screen shows the rest of Goku's attacks.]
["Because while Goku isn't exactly book-smart, he is a genius when it comes to martial arts. He doesn't just train to conquer his opponents, but to conquer himself." Wiz said.]
["He's also got some... different moves, like trapping you in a rice cooker!" Boomstick exclaimed as Goku performed the Evil Containment Wave.]
["Well, pretty much any container could be used for the Mafūba sealing technique." Wiz explained further.]
["Then there's Kaio-ken, AKA instant steroids! Goku's multiplied his power by 20 with it before, and in a movie, he even got it up to times 100! What a badass!" Boomstick said in awe.]
["The Genki-dama, or Spirit Bomb, is potentially his strongest attack, but it requires considerable time. Unlike Instant Transmission, which is a teleport that's... uh, instant. The way it works is Goku detects another person, like a sort of beacon, then teleports to their location by launching himself through an alternate dimension where time stands still. Yes, according to the Daizenshuu guidebook, it's a dimension hop! You can actually see this in-between space in some movies and games." Wiz revealed.]
{Kung Fu Panda Universe}
The Jade Palace
Po was ecstatic to find out that a Martial Arts Master like Goku uses a variety of techniques and attacks, and his favourite attack is the Kamehameha.
"So awesome!" Po yelled out excited, "I definitely want to spar with him!"
Shifu looked at the screen which was displaying Goku using said techniques.
"Then perhaps all of you may have the ability to use Goku's techniques once all of you have mastered Chi." He tells the Furious Five and Po which they were all eager to do so.

["If there's any scene that deserves the word "epic", it's when he went gold. Super Saiyan and its sequels all have official power multipliers, but they threw us for a loop by turning Goku into a god." Boomstick said as the screen shows Goku transforming into his Super Saiyan forms.]
["Super Saiyan God certainly changed things up." Wiz noted as Goku transformed into Super Saiyan God.]
Everyone was shocked to see that a mortal like Goku was able to turn into a god.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Underworld
All of the Saiyans in the underworld are shocked to see that a Saiyan like them was able to achieve something that only legends were able to do so.
However, three Saiyans were at a loss for words.
"Oh Goku!" Gine was in tears seeing her son achieved so much that he even turned into Super Saiyan God. "I knew you can do it!"
Bardock smiled, feeling proud of his son for achieving Super Saiyan God. 'You did good my boy, I'm proud of you.'
Raditz however was in disbelief, seeing Goku achieving that state. He gritted his teeth, swearing to himself that he will not be surpassed by his own younger brother.
{Undertale Universe (Pacifist Route)}
Frisk House
Undyne's eyes lit up as she leaned closer to the television screen. "Holy crap! This guy can turned into a god!"
Sans chuckled while he's leaning against a wall, "Well he's certainly a one of a kind individual. If he's able to turn into a god."
Frisk watched the screen with curiosity, "I can tell that he's definitely strong, strong enough that he can definitely beat all of us without breaking a sweat."
[The screen then cuts to Wiz and Boomstick.]
["Goku gained divine ki, a pure form of ki unspoiled by mortal hands. Unlike normal ki, it can't be detected and appears to have healing properties." Wiz explained.]
["Kinda like Senzu Beans! Did you know one Senzu has so much healing juice, it can regenerate a person's lost limbs?" Boomstick revealed.]
[Boomstick takes a moment to show off his shotgun leg while Wiz looks at his robot arm, curious.]
["They're missing out." Boomstick said.]
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Universe 6
"Wait what!" Caulifla shouted, "They have a cheat like that in their universe?! That's not fair! Do we even have Senzu Beans in our universe?"
Vados then checked her staff and nodded, "Yes we do have them in our universe. Though they are difficult to find."
"Then we are finding those beans right now!" Caulifla then grabbed Kale's arm as they walked off. "After he beat us last time, I am not going to let him surpass me!"
[Wiz: "God Goku reached a level of power that could compete with the greatest of deities, like Beerus, nearly shattering the whole universe with a single clash on his first go."]
[The screen then shows a model of Universe 7's structure.]
["Dragon Ball's cosmology is unique. This model is said to be an accurate depiction of Universe 7, but there's a wrinkle there. When all of humanity went to Heaven" Wiz said, causing everyone to looked at the screen with their jaws dropped.]
["Because Buu went "Buu-zerk" Boomstick explained as the screen shows Kid Buu laughing evilly.]
["Videl commented that Heaven is just as large as a universe, and the Daizenshuu backs her up." Wiz said.]
[The Universe 7 map pops up again on the screen, which is zoomed on a large planetoid on the upper end of it, which Boomstick draws attention to.]
["And uh... that's Heaven. Big planet." Boomstick said.]
["So let's scale things up with that in mind. Doing so would make Universe 7 over 1,500 times larger than our own observable universe." Wiz calculated.]
{Hazbin Hotel Universe After Season 1}
Hazbin Hotel
"Holy Shit! I didn't know that their version of Heaven is so big!" Angel Dust exclaimed.
Charlie and Vaggie can't believe it either, and they went to Heaven only a month ago.
Lucifer eyes widened at the fact that all of humanity went to heaven by one person. He thanked his Father that this 'Buu' is in another universe instead of their own.
["And Goku could destroy that much the first time he went God! And he didn't lose that power! He learned how to use it even better, even in base form!" Boomstick revealed.]
["Now, imagine how much stronger he became when he stacked that with Super Saiyan on Super Saiyan God, and became Super Saiyan Blue!" Boomstick exclaimed as Goku transformed into his Super Saiyan Blue form]
["Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan." Wiz clarified.]
["Yeah, not saying that. Or after he trained with some almighty angels. Or when he perfected the blue hairdo and stacked Kaio-ken on top of that!" Boomstick added.]
{Adventure Time Universe}
Tree House
Finn the human was definitely in awe of Goku's capabilities, "This guy is totally awesome!"
Jake the dog was also in agreement with him, "Yeah you said it bro, I wonder if Superman is also the same as him."

["Goku has certainly performed great feats with god ki: breaking through Hit's time stop by forcing himself into the future, holding off Infinite Zamasu, who is a sentient timeline, defeating Jiren, who shook the entire World of Void by just walking." Wiz revealed his past opponents on the screen.]
["He even tried out Hakai, the Destruction God move that nopes you out of existence. Your being, and your soul, erased from all of time and space." Boomstick said.]
["Culminating in his greatest form... Ultra Instinct." Wiz said, as Goku transformed into his Ultra Instinct form.]
Everyone was amazed at Goku's newest form as the aura emitting from the screen made everyone feel a chill in their spine.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Zeno's House
'Ultra Instinct, Goku from the Seventh Universe has used it in the tournament of power and nearly perfected it.' The Grand Priest thought to himself, as he and the two Zeno's watched the holographic screen.
'I wonder if Goku can fully perfect it and is able to beat this 'Superman'? This would prove to be quite the spectacle.'
["Chrome Goku isn't a normal transformation; it's a state of mind. Ultra Instinct is the highest peak of martial arts, subconsciously making optimal choices 'cause you're in the zone. Doing without thinking." Boomstick explained.]
["Something Goku has always been training to do. Technically, it can be used in any form, but when perfected, Autonomous Ultra Instinct makes him untouchable. No matter what comes his way, Goku will automatically dodge, block, and counter to the best of his ability, even pushing his body well beyond his physical limits. So far beyond, in fact, Ultra Instinct can summon a massive avatar to defend him when his own body can't." Wiz explained further.]
["That sounds really intense." Boomstick remarked.]
["It is, which is why he's developed incremental versions of it for specific uses. It's extremely difficult to maintain the full form for long." Wiz confirmed.]
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Capsule Corporation
"Wait I can do that?!" Goku exclaimed while pointing at the giant avatar of himself on the screen.
"Hmm, well this is certainly a new development." Whis said, looking interested at the giant avatar.
Vegeta scowled bitterly as Goku keeps on furthering the gap between the two of them.
"Don't worry dad! I'm sure you'll catch up to him soon." Trunks tried to encourage his father.
{DC Universe}
Watchtower
"This Ultra Instinct is something to be wary of." Green Lantern (John Stewart} commented.
"Yeah no kidding, how can Superman defeat this guy if he keeps on dodging his attacks?!" Flash exclaimed.
"Well I'm sure that I'll find some way to bypass it, perhaps I'll tire him out so that he has no energy left to maintain his form." Superman theorized.
["Until you get to Dragon Ball Heroes, AKA Dragon Ball fanfiction gone Kaio-ken times a thousand!" Boomstick revealed.]
["While technically a different continuity, CC Goku is functionally a stand-in for the mainline Goku. His history and powers are the same, making his story just as much a "What If?" scenario as the multiple Super continuities. The only real difference is Toriyama's not really involved." Wiz explained.]
["This Goku used Instant Transmission to teleport through time and dimensions. He outsped a god who could see the future. He defeated Dark King Fu, who was gonna rewrite the entire universe! Hell, this series even makes GT cool! Xeno Goku can break space-time just by going Super Saiyan 4!" Boomstick revealed as the screen shows different Goku's from alternate universes.]
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Watchtower
"Woah, are those other me's? They look so cool!" Goku exclaimed as he saw the different versions of himself and the various transformations.
Vegeta is surprised to see Zeno Goku transformed into Super Saiyan 4, something which is unheard of.
'Impossible! How can that Goku transformed into Super Saiyan 4?! I never even heard of it before.' He gritted his teeth in envy at the thought of different Goku's surpassing him.
{Super Dragon Ball Heroes Universe}
"Woah, I didn't know that there were other versions of me out there!" CC Goku exclaimed.
Zeno Goku smirked at the other version of Goku's achievements. 'He's definitely strong. I want to test his strength.'
["Looking back at that goofy monkey boy chopping wood and punching dinosaurs, it's almost overwhelming to think about how far Goku has come. How much he's had to face." Wiz said.]
["But no matter the challenge, he takes it head-on and pushes through." Boomstick said.]
["Showing everyone, everywhere, how to go even further beyond." Wiz said.]
["Y-You...You...What are you?!" Frieza demanded horrified and terrified.]
["You haven't figured it out yet?" Goku questioned. "I'm the Saiyan who came all the way from Earth with the sole purpose of beating you." Freiza gawked in complete horror. "I'm the Warrior you've heard of from legends. Pure of Heart and awakened by Fury. That's what I am." The volcano exploded lava and fire behind the unconcerned Saiyan.]
[Goku exploded out golden energy and roared "I AM THE SUPER SAIYAN, SON GOKU!"]
As the analysis for Goku ended, everyone from all corners of the Multiverse couldn't help but feel a deep admiration for the Saiyan. The fact that he came from a different world yet chose to protect its adoptive planet. And Goku's various transformations and feats left everyone surprised and felt a deep respect for him as he now gained a ton of fans from across the Multiverse and everyone eagerly waited for Superman's analysis.
["Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. It's a bird! It's a plane! It's... Superman!" Wiz revealed as the screen than shows a picture of Superman.
["Geez, just a locomotive? People in the '40s needed bigger imaginations." Boomstick complained.]
["Born on the far-off world of Krypton, the infant Kal-El was sent to Earth by his parents, narrowly escaping Krypton's destruction. Raised by farmers as "Clark Kent", he eventually became Superman: Champion of the Oppressed, the Man of Tomorrow." Wiz said as a picture of Superman is shown to everyone in the multiverse.]
Just like Goku, the sight of Superman made the fans of DC Universe screamed in excitement as their idol is real in the vast Omniverse.
They wondered if the rest of the Justice League will appear in Death Battle like Batman, Flash and Green Lantern.
{My Hero Academia Universe}
UA High School (Class 1-A Height Alliance)
The very presence and sight of the man in red, blue, and gold lifted the room's environment up by amazed expressions, shivers of awe, and humbleness.
Izuku and most of his fellow students couldn't help but feel like they were looking at All Might's clone by similar feeling the Man of Steel gave off compared to the Symbol of Peace.
"He's so manly!" Kirishima cried tears of joy at the manliness of the Man of Steel.
Izuku was in awe off the imposing strength and presence of the World's First Superhero.
'He's just like All Might! I can feel his presence inspires hope just like him!'
["If you've only seen the movies, forget 'em! Comic book Clark's not the perfect Boy Scout, and he's definitely not Jesus. Wait, weren't the guys who made him Jewish?" Boomstick asked.]
["Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster were sons of Jewish immigrants and grew up in a time when antisemitism went largely unchallenged." Wiz revealed.]
["And then that ugly mustache showed up." Boomstick scowled as the screen shows a picture of Adolf Hitler.]
["Understandably seeking escape from some truly terrifying horrors, the pair created Superman to be a simple solution to overwhelming problems." Wiz said.]
["A hero who could defeat any evil by just punching it! Hell yeah! That's how I live my life." Boomstick exclaimed as the screen then shows the pictures of Superman's creators.]
{DC Universe}
Watchtower
"So that's how I was created?" Superman asked before he smiled, "Well I am glad that I still inspire hope to those in that time period."
"Yeah, I didn't know that they have World War 2 in that universe." Green Lantern (John Stewart) commented.
Batman noticed that if World War 2 happened in their universe, then they must have Adolf Hitler in their universe and all of those people in that universe died just like in their one. That thought made him clench his first angrily.

["After almost nine decades, Superman has been many things. At the core, his story is one of a refugee; a child who lost his home, left to the mercy of alien people. This new world accepted him, raised him, gave him a new home, because helping others in need is the right thing to do. That's why he became a superhero. The first superhero." Wiz said.]
["Everything's gotta start somewhere, but he was the first one to really take off." Boomstick said.]
["Uh, I mean, not... literally; it took a while actually before he learned how to fly." Boomstick corrected himself.]
["In fact, when Clark discovered his Kryptonian heritage, he struggled to accept it and subconsciously developed mental blocks, severing him from his true power which he would uncover throughout his life." Wiz revealed.]
["He's strong enough to shoulder-press the weight of the Earth for five days straight or crush coal into perfectly cut diamond." Boomstick explained his feats.]
["That's not how that works." Wiz said.]
["He's fast enough to reach the edge of the universe in seconds, or even break the bonds of infinity. Wait, he can do all that, but Batman can punch him out? Really?" Boomstick commented as the screen then shows a picture of Superman getting punched by Batman.]
Most of the universe didn't know who Batman is but to those who do they all shouted in joy at seeing the famous clash between Batman and Superman.
{SCP Universe}
"This guy must be insane if he thinks that he can stand a chance against him!" Dr Collingwood cried out in concern.
Dr Buck however scoffed at the sight, "If this 'Batman' can punched Superman and not break his arm, then he must be prepared to take him on."
She also wondered if the SCP Foundation are preparing countermeasures if Superman were to arrived at their universe.
["You're probably thinking of Elseworlds stories outside main canon like Dark Knight Returns. It's a good question, though; Superman's powers have fluctuated over time for a variety of reasons. However, for Death Battle, we take the characters at their best." Wiz clarified.]

["Yeah, like how his breath is so powerful, he can sneeze away a solar system, or blow air cold enough to freeze ghoooosts~!" Boomstick explained more of Superman's feats.]
["Speaking of, his x-ray vision doesn't just see through walls. He can see through your own body and mind to examine your soul." Wiz revealed.]
["And yet, he can't see through lead. That's okay, though, he can just burn through it with his face! Since he gets his power from the yellow Sun, his heat vision burns with the fire of a star. And if beams aren't enough, he can blast it out of his whole body for a Super Flare. It used to totally drain him, but he's learned how to control it." Boomstick explained.]
{Invincible Universe (After Viltrumite War)}
"This Superman certainly got my vote." Invincible aka Mark Grayson remarked.
"He is strong, strong enough to beat me." Omni man said, not knowing how he would be demolished if they were to meet.
["Simply put, Superman's powers defy physics. My favorite examples of this are when he rebuilt the reality-warping Miracle Machine from memory. Or punched Brainiac so hard, every version of him felt it through all of time. Or when he gained 10 years worth of medical training through only five minutes of reading, and then successfully performed lung surgery." Wiz continued to explained more of Superman's accomplishments]
{The Boys Universe (After Season 3)}
Homelander's office
Homelander's eyes narrowed in anger as he saw that his fans were in awe of Superman's accomplishments and were debating on would win between Superman and Homelander.
His fists clenched in fury as someone from another universe was outshining HIM, the greatest superhero in history!!!
He was glad that he's in another universe and he can stay there! And if they fought well... he would be triumphant!
Too bad if Clark learns of all of the horrible deeds that he has done, he would give Homelander the beating of a lifetime.
["Nice! My favorite example is when he smelled brownies in North Dakota. From orbit." Boomstick said as the screen shows Superman somehow smelling Brownies In space.]
{The Amazing World of Gumball Universe}
Wattersons' house
"He can do what?!!!" Both Gumball and Darwin's eyes widened in shock at this ridiculous feat.
"How is that possible, smell can't travel in space so how did he even smell it?" Anais is trying to think of a logical way as to how that happened.
Yeah good luck with that Anais, Superman literally defies physics.
["Even beyond his powers, Superman is no novice when it comes to the intricacies of battle." Wiz continued.]

["He's trained in Kryptonian martial arts, which use chi, or as they call it, Shreearr. He even got summoned to Asgard to fight demons with Thor for a thousand years!" Boomstick revealed.]
{Marvel universe (No. 12041)}
Avengers Tower
"You fought with him?!!" Falcon questioned Thor as everyone looked at the God of Thunder for answers.
Thor laughed, "No, I have not met this Superman ever in my life, but I wouldn't object to that! He would be a fine comrade to fight with against those foul demons!"
Black widow then guessed that it was another version of Thor in that other universe.
{God Of War: Ragnarok (Aftermath)}
Mimir looked at the screen fascinated that there was another version of Thor and is a good guy.
"Wow, this Thor is certainly better than our one." He commented.
Kratos said nothing, while he has doubts about DC Thor at first, but he realised that this Thor certainly is a lot different than his Thor. Though, he returned to focus on Superman on the screen, with his vote on the First Superhero.
["Superman can resist being erased from existence, such as tanking Darkseid's Omega Beams. Even Retconn and the Time Trapper, both of which hijack and alter timelines, can't touch him, not because of his powerful mental defenses or healing factor, but because he's a cosmic lynchpin in the greater metaverse." Wiz revealed.]
["Timelines literally revolve around him." Boomstick exclaimed.]
Everyone was shocked as to find out that this superhero is so unique that even timelines revolved around him.
{JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Universe (Part 3)]
Joseph laughed, "That Superman sure is one powerful hero huh!"
Jotaro said nothing, though he secretly was a big fan of DC Comics, especially Superman comics which he read as a child and hoped that Superman beat Goku.
["But let's address the S-shaped elephant in the room. You may have noticed we've covered a variety of Superman eras. Superman and DC Comics as a whole have gone through multiple retcons." Wiz said to the audience.]
["Golden Age, Silver Age, Pre-Crisis, Post-Crisis, New 52, Rebirth, and so on." Boomstick listed off as the screen the different covers of various Superman comic books.]
{One Piece Universe (After Wano Arc)}
Thousand Sunny
"Woah, there's so many comic books!" Luffy shouted as he, Chopper and Ussop are in awe of Superman that he have Comic Books about him.
"That's what you are most interested about?!" Nami screeched.
The rest of the Strawhat Crew can only sighed as they saw their captain gushing over about Superman's comic books.
["It would help to know which one is the main Superman, right? Well... they all are." Wiz revealed.]
["Yeah, the latest reboots basically said everything in the main series is kinda canon. Even when he had wacky powers like changing his appearance with, uh... "super muscular control"! Ew..." Boomstick said.]
{Metal Gear Rising Revengeance Universe}
Raiden's face grimaced at the sight of Superman changing his appearance.
'That is not how you change your appearance Superman.' He thought, while Superman has some of the most powerful abilities in the world, this has got to be the most ridiculous one yet.
["I guess he can still phase through almost anything, even people!" Boomstick exclaimed.]
["Look, if you really dig into it, this isn't new. Plenty of characters have recalled events from supposedly retconned timelines before." Wiz pointed out.]
["Yeah. Post-Crisis Supes did start as less powerful than in Pre-Crisis, but that was because of the mental blocks." Boomstick said.]
["Though he's not a complete composite; there's so many other Supermen out there."Wiz pointed out.]
["Future Superman, Big Robot Superman, Commie Superman, Dinosaur Superman! There's a bunch." Boomstick listed off as the screen then shows the multiple versions of Superman.]
{DC Universe}
Watchtower
"So those other versions of me huh?" Superman pondered, though he was initially surprised that there was a Communist version of Superman.
Batman glared at the screen, 'If there was a Communist version of Superman, who knows how many other evil versions of Superman out there?'
["Still, this new canon has affected his abilities. For example, he and other Kryptonians can effortlessly travel through time! And while Superman's powers stem from the Earth's yellow Sun, exposure to a blue star increases them even further. In fact, upon visiting a white star, he attained a whole new level of power." Wiz revealed.]
["When that old baldy Lex teleported him to another galaxy, Superman just popped back up, saying that space-time has lost its meaning for him. He really just said that!" Boomstick exclaimed.]
["Remember: Superman defies physics." Wiz emphasized.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Capsule Corporation
"He can do all that?!" Goku's eyes shined as the screen continues to shows Superman's latest feat.
Beerus can't believe it, a mortal like Superman is able to travel through time and space without using a time ring is something only the angles like Whis can do.
"This mortal is proving to be troublesome." Beerus muttered.
["Like when he used heat vision to restart the universe by making an all-new Big Bang!" Wiz said.]
["We've seen that his universe has a radius of at least 100 trillion light-years, but we can calculate a more exact figure. The DC Universe is 15 billion years old and expands at 60 trillion light-years per half-second. This means its radius must be... over 50 nonillion light-years across." Wiz calculated.]
["Non-li-what? That's 31 zeroes! And Supes helped make that happen!" Boomstick exclaimed.]
{Naruto Universe (Before Boruto)}
"That's insane! How is he so strong?!" Sakura yelled.
Naruto and Sasuke are also surprised to see that Superman literally created a Big Bang with JUST his heat vision.
"He's so cool! I am definitely voting for him!" Naruto said in awe.
["Well, about one-fifth of it. That's still immense power, but if you want something bigger, here's the Anti-Monitor blasting Golden Age Superman with all the energy of the Antimatter Universe. And then, Superman... y'know..." Wiz said.]
["Punched him! So hard, it kickstarted another one of those reboots." Boomstick yelled.]

["Now, Superman does have weaknesses. There's Kryptonite, of course, and exposure to red starlight can fade his powers over time." Wiz revealed Superman's weaknesses.]
["Not all at once. He has been able to move planets around while under a red star, soooo..." Boomstick said much to the shock of everyone in the multiverse.]
["And everyone knows Superman can't deal with magic, but it's more accurate to say he doesn't have any special resistances to it. He's defeated plenty of magic users before, even Shazam." Wiz pointed out as a picture of Superman defeating Shazam was shown.]
{My Little Pony Universe (Before Season 9)}
School of Friendship
"He can defeat magic users?!" Twilight yelled, as she was trying to comprehend as to how did he managed to do that.
"Uh Twi, he said that he's has no resistance to it. So it probably means that he's still weak against it." Applejack said, though Twilight wasn't listening to her.
["Superman challenges the idea that absolute power corrupts absolutely. He's the good-est good guy of them all, but there is nuance to being good, even if he is the ultimate power fantasy, unstoppable and incorruptible." Boomstick said.]

________________________________________
["Such as when he took on the World Forger, one of the most powerful reality shapers in all of creation." Wiz revealed as the screen shows a picture of the World Forger.]
["Who was in the Sixth Dimension crafting a whole new multiverse to replace the one Clark calls home! Who's gonna stop him?!" Boomstick yelled.]
["Superman could, and the Forger knew it. So he was trapped on a world with a sun so distant, he could never escape... Or so the Forger thought." Wiz said.]
["Instead, Clark found the strength he needed to fly at that sun, dip through a ton of stars, KO the World Forger, and shatter his new multiverse with a single punch! Because that's Superman: a simple solution to overwhelming problems." Boomstick revealed.]
{DC Universe}
Apokolips
Darkseid looked at the screen as he sat on his throne, glaring at the Kryptonian who keeps foiling his plans for galactic domination.
'The World Forger is defeated by the Kryptonian?' Darkseid's hatred grew as his very presence caused his servants nearby to suddenly choked and pass out.
["He's the kind of person to save a cat from a tree, answer Christmas cards from strangers, and tow hundreds of planets to a new galaxy, all in the same day. What's not to like?" Wiz said.]
["Truth and justice has no better champion than the Man of Steel!" Boomstick exclaimed.]
["Dreams save us. Dreams lift us up and transform us." He said to Manchester Black.
"And on my soul, I swear... until my dream of a world where dignity, honor and justice becomes the reality we all share -- I'll never stop fighting. Ever."]
Just like Goku's final declaration left them in shivers, the Man of Steel's words left them all in a similar state.
Soon enough, everyone applauded Superman for his strength and the fact that he used his powers for good rather than for selfish reasons.
Overall, the thoughts over the Man of Steel were clearly positive, many admiring his strength and range of powers to his morality and presence.
["Alright, the combatants are set. We've run the data through all possibilities." Wiz said.]
["IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLEEE!!!" Boomstick yelled.]
From every corners of the Multiverse, there are many people who are excited to watch this battle unfold between two great warriors. Soon enough, many people are placing bets on who they believe that will win.
Of course, the Dragon Ball fans begin to vote to for Goku to win while the DC Comics fans vote for Superman to win. Even people from different eras and alternative universes can't help but vote for Goku or Superman.
Despite the mixed opinions however, all of them can't but feel excited about the upcoming clash between these two legends.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
"Good luck Goku!" Krillin said, as he hoped that Goku can win against the Man of Steel.
"Yeah, good luck Dad!" Goten cheered for his father.
"Thanks Goten! I just know that whether I won or lose, I'll give it my all!" Goku laughed.
He knows that Superman is unlike any foe that he faced before, but no matter the odds, he will defeat him, even if it's just a simulated battle.
{DC Universe}
"May the gods grant you good fortune in this battle, Superman!" Wonder woman exclaimed.
"Yeah, you can do it Clark." Cyborg said.
"Thanks guys." Superman chuckled, "But I will not be defeated so easily."
Batman was deep in thought, while he didn't say out loud, he was secretly hoping that Superman wins, he was actually preparing countermeasures should Goku actually came to their universe.
[In a forest near a mountainous region, two fast streaks are seen constantly bouncing off each other, one wearing a red cape and the other an orange gi. The yellow streak, revealed to be Son Goku in his Super Saiyan form, smiles as he spins and lands on the ground to face the red streak ahead of him, Superman. Both alien heroes dash towards each other and clash arms with smiles on their faces and sparks flying between their eyes before an explosion from the clash sends them back.]
["Today's the day! We'll finally settle who's stronger!" Goku declared.]
[Superman chuckles, "If you say so."]
Everyone was silent as they all are literally watching two legendary characters going head to head in a Death Battle despite it being a simulation, they all can't help but cheer their respective characters as to who would win.
[Superman flies forward to deliver a light punch only for Goku to slap it downward as he leaps behind him. He smiles, acknowledging his foe's cunning strategy before Goku kicks him further into the forest, crashing through a tree. The two exchange a series of blows flying through the trees and leaving clouds of dust behind.]
[Clark eventually punches Goku towards the ground before flying up and unleashing his heat vision downwards, only for Goku to use Instant Transmission to avoid it and get closer to Superman. After landing two hits, he uses his Instant Transmission once more to avoid an attack and begins delivering a quick combo to Superman, noticing that he is not fighting at his full strength.]
["You're holding back! Give it your all! No regrets!" Goku said to Superman.]
[Goku eventually grabs Superman's cape and spins him around before tossing him with a Dragon Throw into the dirt. Clark brushes off Goku's concerns about his strength.]
["I'm doing just fine. "Superman replied.]
[He is able to back it up by flying forward and punching Goku near a lake. Goku responds by yelling and transforming into his Super Saiyan Blue state. He narrowly dodges Clark's next attack and kicks him downwards into the water before putting his hands together and unleashing his signature attack.]
["KamehameHA!" Goku yelled.]
[The beam pushes Superman into the lake, prompting Goku to put more energy into his attack to keep him pinned. However, Goku notices something coming out of the water.]
["Huh?" Goku said in confusion.]
[Unfazed by the attack, Superman flies upward and punches Goku high into the sky. The two exchange rapid blows as they take their battle above the Earth to the edge of outer space. As Clark attempts to land another punch, Goku is able to predict where he is aiming and manages to land a one-inch Super God Shock Flash punch to his chest, sending Superman back.]
[Now at a distance, Goku attempts to send multiple Ki Blasts forward, but Superman is able to dissolve some of them with his heat vision. He catches one of the blasts and tosses another to the side, only for him to realize with concern where he sent its crash course to: the Moon, which is blown up in the process. The two pause to observe the damage.]
{DC Universe}
Batman glared at the Man of Steel to which he chuckled awkwardly as the rest of Justice League deadpanned at him.
"Seriously Clark, can't you not try to destroy the Moon?" Batman asked.
"Well, at least it's a simulation." Superman said, while Batman still stared at him.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
"Goku, did you just destroyed the moon?!" Chichi yelled at him while pinching Goku's left cheek.
"Ow! Ow! Ow! I didn't mean to! Besides we can just wish it back with the Dragon Balls!" He replied, but Chichi was still not convinced and continues to lecture him about the consequences of destroying the moon.
["Oops!" Goku chuckles. "Well, I guess we can wish it back later!"]
[" World made of cardboard..." Superman said as he looks distraught at his fist before smiling and finally deciding to fulfill his opponent's request, now emitting a bio-electric aura from his body.]
["Alright! I'll show you just how powerful I really am!" Superman declared.]
[Goku giggles in excitement before immediately getting clocked in the face with a punch so hard, it forms a crack in reality that shows an alternate universe where GT Goku is battling Superman Blue in front of the Daily Planet.]
[After the impact, Goku is sent flying across the horizon. Superman immediately appears where his opponent is being punched towards as Goku recovers and attempts to counterattack, but Superman phases through it before turning to deliver another devastating blow, this time showing a cracked reality where their evil counterparts, Goku Black and Ultraman, are locked in an intense beam struggle. Goku Black's Super Black Kamehameha and Ultraman's heat vision collide violently, creating a powerful burst of energy on Snake Way.]
[As Goku is sent upwards, Superman flies upwards to deliver a devastating axe handle to send Goku back to Earth, with one more crack in reality featuring Xeno Goku charging a Kamehameha against a giant Thought Robot, who is attempting to grab him, his hand reaching out of the crack. ]
Everyone was shocked to see even the alternate versions of Goku and Superman fighting it out, though they can't help but feel unease at the second versions of Goku and Superman and feel fear at the Cosmic Armour Superman.
[As Goku is sent flying back down to Earth from Superman's attack, Superman dashes forward and grabs him, slamming him back down to the planet in a deserted canyon, creating a large explosion. Superman picks him up and tosses him into a nearby rock formation, destroying his Gi and knocking him out of his Super Saiyan Blue form and back into his normal state. As he stands up, Clark converses with him.]
["Well, what do you think?" Superman asked Goku.]
["That was awesome!" Goku chuckles. Nice suit! He complimented him.]
["Oh, uh, thanks! Kryptonian fabric. My mom made it for me." Superman said.]
[Using his compliment as a distraction, Goku Instant Transmissions and attempts to hit pressure points, only for Superman to barely feel his attempt and quickly brush it off with him being back in his base form. After swatting his last punch aside, Superman goes for one of his own, only for the impending danger that Goku is placed in to allow him to unleash his peak state: Ultra Instinct.]
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
"Oh yeah! Now this is really getting good now! Goku feels excited as now both of them are going all out. He can't help but feel eager to fight him soon in person if there was a chance that the both of them will meet.
Beerus however looks on amused, entertained by the show that Goku and Superman is putting on. He wondered if he will appear in Death Battle, perhaps he will be able to cut loose for a bit.
[Now emitting a white aura, Goku effortlessly avoids Superman's attack at the last moment. After receiving a counter blow, Superman attempts to punch again, only for Goku to dodge once more with a backflip before using the Wild Dance Annihilation to land multiple blows at once.]
[With his cape torn and now taking the fight more seriously, Superman's bio-electricity strengthens as he and a smiling Ultra Instinct Goku exchange blows all over the canyon at high speeds. Clark tries using a powered-up version of his heat vision, missing Goku but cutting through dozens of mountains at once.]
Everyone was trying to see their movements but they were too fast for them and some of them have their eyes widened as Superman destroyed multiple mountains with just his heat vision.
[Superman manages to land a punch, but as he attempts a follow-up, Goku catches his fist and punches him to the side. Clark begins missing more against Ultra Instinct Goku, who repeatedly counterattacks at high speeds, forcing Superman to the point where he unleashes his Super Flare. The entire canyon is caught in a bright red explosion that Goku manages to retreat and avoid.]
[Seemingly exhausted, Superman quickly flies away from Earth and begins flying through multiple suns scattered all across the galaxy to prepare for his ultimate attack. As he sees a glowing yellow light and an aurora high in the sky, Goku is happy as his opponent is finally unleashing his full power.]
Suddenly, everyone can feel that this will be the climax of this battle as everyone leaned in closer to watch what might be the final clash between Goku and Superman.
["Finally. KAAAAAAMEEEEEEEEEEEEE... HAAAAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..."]
[Goku begins charging the Kamehameha wave for the final struggle, the sheer brightness of it illuminating his entire body in a white light. Superman, now glowing yellow from his final sundip, begins charging towards Earth at full speed, prompting Goku to fire his beam towards the sky.]
["HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"]
[Goku unleashes his final Kamehameha towards Clark, who fires his heat vision to clear a path through the beam. Knowing that he needs to go further beyond to win, Goku powers up one last time.]
["KAIO-KEN!!"]
[Goku's body emits a red aura as he multiplies Ultra Instinct with Kaio-ken, which proves to be so powerful that the Earth explodes. Despite his heat vision being overwhelmed by the attack, Superman is still able to endure it as he pushes forward. Seeing his opponent come closer with his body under so much defenceless strain, Goku's body emits the Ultra Instinct Energy Avatar, who throws a punch at the incoming Superman as he throws his own.]
[The clash of their two most powerful punches proves destructive enough to annihilate their universe, enveloping everything in darkness before cracks in reality form and emit a bright, white light.]
Everyone have their eyes widened and jaws dropped as they just saw them LITERALLY BREAK REALITY WITH JUST THEIR PUNCHES!!!
Now they want to know who was the victor, Goku or Superman?
[The light then fades into Goku taking in a breath as he awakens in a white void, sitting down in his base form. He looks up only to see a familiar halo floating above his head, confirming that he has lost.]
["Huh? Ah, darn it." Goku said, disappointed that he lost.]
[He hears a voice next to him, then looks to his left to see the still-alive Superman standing beside him.]
["Heh, almost had me there. That was actually pretty fun!" Superman said to him.]
["Hee hee! Yeah, it sure was! But I'll be stronger next time." Goku promised as he laugh and stands up to his victorious rival and friend.]
["I look forward to it." Superman smiled, wishing the same to him.]
[The two alien heroes turn to see multiple cracks in reality showing off various alternate universes where the two continue their never-ending battle.]
["Let's go again!" Goku said as he offered a fist bump.]
["You're on." Superman fist bumps his fallen opponent in support as the screen fades to black.]
For a moment, everyone was silent as they are all shocked to see that Goku lost and Superman was the victor.
Suddenly, everyone cheered as they celebrated Superman's victory while the Dragon Ball were sad that Goku lost, but they still clapped for the both of them.
But all in all, they are all in awe of the music, the animation and the final clash was astounding, they hoped that the rest of the Death Battle is as good as this one.
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
Everyone was silent as they all saw that Goku lost.
"Aw man! I lost!" Goku said, disappointed that he lost.
Vegeta's mind is trying to process that Goku, his rival, lost to a freaking superhero.
'This is insane! There's no way that Goku can lose! I refuse to accept it!'
Chichi, Gohan and Goten are shocked to see him lose, but they can't deny that he put a good fight against Superman.
Universe 6
Hit was shocked to see that Goku lost, and that's no easy feat considering he was the one who beat Jiren.
'Superman, just who are you?'
Universe 11
"Son Goku...lost?" Jiren's eyes widened in surprise, as he never thought that the Saiyan would lose to to the Kryptonian.
{DC universe}
Watchtower
Everyone in the Justice League cheered at Superman's victory against Goku.
"Congratulations Superman! You won!" Flash exclaimed, as he clapped Superman on the back.
"You have defeated a formidable opponent! Well done Clark!" Wonder woman said, proud of her friend's victory against Goku.
Batman remained silent, before he said, "Congratulations Clark."
The Daily Planet
Everyone in the daily planet as their hero won the battle against Goku.
"Yay, he did it!" Jimmy exclaimed in excitement.
'I knew you can do it, Clark.' She smiled at her husband, knew that he won't lose to the Saiyan.
Kent Farm
Both Jonathan and Martha Kent sighed in relief that their son won against Goku.
"See honey, I told you that he would be fine." Jonathan said.
"Yeah, I guess you did." She said as she kissed Jonathan on the cheek, feeling glad that Superman won.
["That's it! The final, indisputable answer! Ah, who am I kidding? People are gonna argue this one forever." Boomstick exclaimed.]
He wasn't kidding as the some fans are still angry that Goku as they soon began to argue that Goku should've won against Superman with DC fans.
Then again, this is the consequences of pitting two characters from two different franchises into a simulated battle.
["There's so many ways this battle could go, especially with all the other continuities." Wiz pointed out.]
["Yeah, for real. Goku would kick almost every other Superman's ass, except for the main one." Boomstick revealed.]
["There's a lot to cover, so let's address the five categories most representative of this fight." Wiz said as the screen shows the five categories: Strength, Speed, Skill, Experience, and Powers.]
[STRENGTH]
["First up, strength. Both could hit hard enough to break or make their whole universe. Or take it in stride, like when Superman got smacked by the whole Antimatter Universe." Boomstick said.]
["At most, Dragon Ball's universe is 1,505 times larger than our own. But based on the DC universe's officially established age and rate of expansion, it is 1.6 vigintillion times larger, over a novemdecillion more than Goku's." Wiz calculated.]
Everyone's jaws dropped as they all didn't realised just how vast the DC Universe is, even to the ones who lived in the DC Universe as they didn't think that it would be THAT large.
[At some point, you reach a number high enough that it just doesn't mean anything anymore. Anyway, Goku's obviously gotten stronger since the Beerus fight, even by billions or trillions of times. He's defeated Jiren and Broly, Moro, and Fu!" Boomstick revealed while showing the audience pictures of Goku's enemies.]
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
"Wait, who are they?" Goku asked as the rest of the fighters looked at the last of two pictures.
"They must be our future opponents Kakarot, those two did say that they will show some events of the future." Vegeta explained, to which Goku remembered that the hosts did say that.
{Galactic Patrol Headquarters}
"Moro?! But isn't he still locked up?! How did Goku defeated him?!" Jaco exclaimed as he put his hands on his head in a panic.
"He is." Merus confirmed, "He is still in his prison cell and we have increased it's security, if what the hosts are telling the truth, then we can't allow to escape otherwise countless worlds will suffer for it.
Meanwhile in Moro's cell, Moro cursed at the screen and the Galactic Patrol for ruining his plans, and the fact that he will be beaten by Goku in the future makes it even more frustrating for him.
["But even if we highball Goku by quadrillions or quintillions of times, the gap is just too much, especially with the World Forger feat. Not even Heroes competes with that. Superman takes the edge in strength." Wiz said.]
[SPEED]
["But strength isn't everything. Let's talk speed. Both are obviously way faster than light, but Superman crossed the mega-sized universe of his in seconds and flew faster than infinity." Boomstick said.]
["Makes sense; he can keep up with the Flash, whose speed is so ludicrous, it's unquantifiable." Wiz revealed while showing a picture of the Flash.]
{Archie Sonic Universe}
"Flash huh? I like this guy!" Sonic said, as he felt that he's a speedster that give even him a run of his money.
{My Little Pony Universe}
"What! There's more people out there who are faster than me?!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed in despair as she still has a hard time to accept that there were individuals that can not only keep up with her, but surpass her in terms of speed.
"Don't be upset Rainbow Dash, even to us it's still ludicrous to think that anyone can be faster than you, just look at Twilight." Rarity gestured to Twilight as she was running around trying to take notes and calculations of the entirety of the Death Battle Analysis.
[ "Don't count Goku out, though. Flying across the entire afterlife in base form and out-speeding Aeos' future sight takes some crazy speed." Booomstick said.]
["Fighting Zamasu as an omnipresent merged timeline also implies immeasurable speeds." Wiz revealed.]
["That combined with Instant Transmission and Ultra Instinct could probably keep up." Boomstick said.]
["Maybe. Quantifiably, Superman is faster, but both are immeasurable. The safest bet here is to say they tie in speed." Wiz said.]
[SKILL]
["Especially when we look at skill. Goku's a martial arts master; he's definitely got better battle instincts. He wants to fight and is dedicated to his training, while Superman sees training as a means to an end." Boomstick explained the difference between Goku and Superman.]
[ "Superman's knowledge in pressure point combat and Kryptonian martial arts are impressive, but he's only used them a few times. It would be disingenuous to say he's an equivalent master at them." Wiz said.]
["So Goku wins in skill, but not necessarily in experience." Boomstick said.]
{Jujutsu Kaisen Universe}
"Make sense since Goku is a martial arts master while Superman relies more on his abilities." Gojo pondered.
"Yeah, maybe we can learned some of Goku's techniques to defeat those cursed spirits!" Itadori suggested.
"That's actually a pretty good idea." Megumi agreed with him.
[EXPERIENCE]
["Don't get it wrong, Superman is not a mindless brawler. He's trained with Batman and Wonder Woman. He's even defeated martial arts experts like Kobra without powers." Wiz explained while showing a screen where Superman and Kobra swap bodies, with Kobra lying down on the ground in Superman's body.]
["Goku has spent decades training, but Superman battled Norse demons for a thousand years!" Boomstick pointed out again.]
["He's also astonishingly brilliant, like when he reassembled the reality-warping Miracle Machine from memory. Experience obviously goes to Superman." Wiz pointed out. "But perhaps less obvious is our last category: Powers."]
{Overwatch Universe}
"Yeah Superman's got literal thousands of experience, there's no way that someone like Goku is able to beat someone like Superman." D.Va said.
"Still, it's insane that Superman is able to live that long!" Lucio exclaimed.
"Well, he is an alien after all." Tracer said.
[POWERS]
["Hakai, Spirit Bomb, Mafūba, Instant Transmission, God ki, God Bind— how does Goku not win with those?" Broomstick asked.]
["In Dragon Ball, ki is dependent on physical ability, so it's different from magic. God ki is simply pure ki, and magic isn't an auto-win against Superman anyway, whose greater strength could break out of something like the God Bind." Wiz explained.]
{Super Smash Bros Ultimate Universe}
"That is true, Superman can break out of almost everything, so it would make sense that the God Bind won't work on him." Bayonetta analysed.
"Yeah, Superman is definitely one of the strongest person out there." Sonic said, while glancing at Kirby who was swallowing some food.
["Mafūba and the Spirit Bomb would take way too long, and Goku's never successfully used Hakai before. Even if he did land it, Superman's impossible to erase from reality. Like, he's tanked Omega Beams, which do the same thing as Hakai." Boomstick said.]
["Superman can time travel, countering Instant Transmission's similar ability from Heroes. And regarding teleporting him to a red star, ignoring the fact that Saiyans can't breathe in space, though Goku's certainly tough enough to withstand a vacuum, Instant Transmission requires another person to act as a beacon. He can't just warp to any red star." Wiz explained further.]
["Even if he did, Superman could simply fly away and find a blue or white star for a supercharge." Boomstick pointed out.]
[ "And Goku could not pull off the same trick twice, as Superman could phase through his attacks." Wiz explained.]
["So, that's it then! Clark has too many counters, so he takes the edge in powers and it's over." Boomstick proclaimed.]
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
"Aw man! So Superman is stronger, more experienced and more powerful? I going to need to up my training if I want to beat him!" Goku exclaimed as he clenched his fists in excitement, although he lost that doesn't mean that he's going to give up.
He wasn't the only though as the rest of the fighters also want to increase their training regime.
Comparison

+ Greater martial arts mastery
+ More varied techniques
+ Better mobility via Instant Transmission
- Limited ki energy
= Ultra Instinct is similar to Theta State
= Potentially similar speeds
Superman
+ Far greater strength
+ More experienced
+ Higher intelligence
+ Superior stamina via sunlight
+ Counters most of Goku's techniques
- Limited martial arts mastery
= Theta State is similar to Ultra Instinct
= Potentially similar speeds
["Well, I think there's something else. Goku versus Superman breaches a broader zeitgeist. It's more than just two characters fighting. For a whole generation, especially in '90s America, superheroes represented an unyielding status quo. Spider-Man, Batman, Captain America rarely change who they are or what they believe in. For a lot of people, that's tiring, and Superman is an icon of that. Then along came anime! There was a whole other world of ideas and stories for us sheltered Westerners to experience, and Goku's an icon of that. So while many see this as a debate between characters, others see it as a debate of ideologies and culture. And if that's what's at stake... who wants Goku to lose?" Wiz explained.]
Wiz's statement made everyone silent as in the real worlds, the fans did wanted Goku to win and they are pretty angry for him losing to Superman.
Though they all can't help but agree with Wiz through in other universes, they don't really get what he's saying but they did think that Goku should've won though.
["Uh... you sure you're not overthinking this?" Boomstick asked his coworker.]
["It's not our intent, but i-it does call into question what we're doing. How can people agree with what we take as fact when fiction relies on interpretation?" Wiz continues his train of thought.]
["Are we stripping characters of their importance by simplifying them to contestants in a vacuum of violence? A-A-And if so, then what's the POINT?!" Wiz was having an identity crisis right now.]
[We cut to Wiz and Boomstick, with the latter smacking the former in the face to talk some sense into him.]
["Because it's fun, Wiz! Damn it, man! There's more than one way to appreciate something. We're havin' a great time talkin' about awesome characters and slammin' action figures together... and that's okay!" Boomstick explained.]
["Y-yeah. You're right." Wiz agreed with him.]
["And besides, I'm sure that everyone else has a fun time watching the Death Battle videos that we made." Boomstick's question was directed to the audience.]
[ "I'm just Saiyan, no matter who you prefer, that battle was super, ...man!" Boomstick punned.]
["The winner is Superman!" Wiz exclaimed as Superman's image appeared on the screen, declaring Superman the victor.]
Then the screen turns black for a while, while the rest of the audience thought that it was over, it's only until the screens turned on again.
["Good news everyone!" Boomstick shouted as he and Wiz are in a pure white room.]
["We have just received word from the three Gods that organised this whole event that after every death battle, the fighters will be able to meet with each other for a few minutes." Wiz revealed.]
["Yep and we have portals to allow the fighters to meet here at this place, which should appear right about..... now." Boomstick said.]
{Dragon Ball Super Universe}
The moment Boomstick announced that, a green portal then appeared behind the rest of the fighters, surprising them all.
"Well Goku, I think that's for you." Bulma pointed at the swirling green portal.
Goku smiles, finally going to see his rival face to face.
"Well, I'll see you guys later!" Goku said, before running into the portal as it closed behind him as soon as he entered.
{DC Universe}
Just like in Goku's universe, a swirling green portal appeared in the watchtower, much to the surprise of everyone.
"Superman, are you going to go in there?" Zatanna asked.
Superman hesitated for a moment before he said, "Well, if everyone really wants me to meet Goku, then why should I refuse?"
"It could be a trap?" Batman interjected.
But Superman disagreed with that, "If it really is a trap, then I will stop them." He said, before he walks to the portal as well as it closes behind them.
{Interdimensional Space}
The two portals then appeared in the interdimensional space and both Goku and Superman come out of it.
They then noticed each other and Goku was ecstatic to meet the person who killed/defeated him.
"Superman! It's good to see you! I think you already who I am since we already saw the video!" Goku chuckled.
Superman chuckled as well, "It's good to meet you as well Goku."
Goku smiled,.... then he immediately lunged at Superman with a punch aiming at his face.
Superman easily caught the punch as the clash caused shockwaves that echoed in the room.
"So, you really want to do this?" Superman questioned Goku who smiled back at him.
"Yeah, I want to test your strength for myself! So let's have a spar!" Goku replied.
As the two fought against each other, all of the Omniverse all saw the two of them fighting in the room just like the one shown on Death Battle, however this time there was no killing this time.
So all of them cheered them on once again until it's finally time for them to stop.
"Alright you two! Break it up!" Kieran's voice echoed throughout the room, causing the two of them to momentarily stop their spar. "It's time for you two to go back to your separate universes."
"What?! Oh man! I still wanted to spar with him a little more!" Goku whined.
"I'm sorry Goku, but it's like it's time to stop." Superman said as he offered a handshake.
"Let's have another spar another time."
Goku looked at Superman's hand before he smiled and accepted his handshake, signifying the new bond between the two of the most famous heroes in the omniverse.

"Let's a go!"
"You're too slow!"
