How strong do you think Kon-El is compared to Jon Kent?

• Current versions
• Do you think Kon-El is stronger, weaker or around the same strength as Jon

It’s hard to gauge. Connor may have more experience but current Jon is future state Jon so he’s got a decent amount of XP too. Haven’t read much of current connor to say he’s at his post crisis levels and I don’t recall him having tactile TK. Jon however has Super Flare and has at times been stated to rival his dad’s speed. DC probably wants Jon to be stronger since he’s Clark’s direct successor so I’d go with him currently

plus when Jon was new to DC it was stated and insinuated a lot that he'd grow up to be more powerful than Clark

Probably Jon. It was stated he would grow stronger then his dad possibly. And in deceased he one shot Orion. Not cannon but still interesting to see how they portrayed a grown Jon.

That’s crazy considering in GL comics Orion tanked a solar system level blast

@firestarlord73194: Ya that is crazy i didn't even remember that for him. If it was canon he would be a force to be reckoned with.

DCeased Jon would curbstomp Kon-El. He knocked out Orion with a single punch, and was stated directly to be superior to his father. Not sure about the main continuity, but they will probably move in a similar direction.

It's hard to say. For some reason jon has the potential to be stronger than his father, with his kryptonian/human hybrid physiology. But conner's exact same physiology seems to hold him back at only half of clark's potential. I hope both get to his level tho, just to see them kick high tier ass.

@applekidthethird: yh i dont understand that either. They both have same physiology, yet Kon-el is deemed to be weaker

Probably Jon. He was again said he may become stronger then superman.

Maybe well be stronger than superman but not now
