Better idea: Superman or Goku?
This has already been decided. Even though I hate to say it, Superman wins -__-. His power to absorb sunlight is goku's demise. And also a lot of other factors... You can check it out here:
Death Match: Superman vs Goku
I wouldn't say that deathbattles are the end all to that debate. Even more so when they don't have numbers calculating how strong Goku is later on.
Goku's power is massive and impossible to calculate after a certain part in the anime/manga. They literally just stop giving you numbers to work with. Super Saiyan forms seem to work on exponential numbers for each form. So their base form x Super saiyan modifier. It isn't like base form power levels stay the same, in actuality as their base form gets stronger their super saiyan form becomes much stronger.
Not to mention I would argue that Goku is the better fighter because of actual experience with enemies that are both experts in fighting and have the ability to beat him. Superman seems to just rely on the fact that he is strong to the point of overpowering. And anybody I know who has practiced martial arts knows that brute strength isn't everything and in some cases can work against you.
Regardless I generally have a dislike of DC because besides Batman, their heroes generally don't seem to be as interesting or appealing to me. Superman is essentially "lets make a guy invincible and extremely marty sue when writing him then call him a hero!" Marvel does a much better job with giving character flaws and preventing somebody from being too perfect. For example, Hulk has anger issues, Iron man has self loathing+Alcoholism, Spiderman can't seem to balance his personal life with hero life, and so on.
On topic, Goku's base form in the buu saga would be more than enough to defeat everybody on there. Except maybe Gary Oak. That dude's dbaggyness creates unbelievable barriers.
No offense, but did you actually watch that video I linked? Because 90% of what you said, actually is counter-proven there... :/. They do have numbers, they do calculate the super saiyan exponents etc etc. And like I said before, I hate to admit it, but Superman will win against Goku eventually. I always thought Goku was the strongest of them all, until I saw that video.
I totally agree with you on the Marvel/DC issue. Batman is the only DC comic I really like, for the rest, Marvel all the way xD.
Too bad they didn't count in when the dragon balls fused w/ Goku... since not only is his power amplified obviously he'd also be able to use magic... but they're right that would be another story.
