Are there any fictional characters more powerful than Maxwell from Scribblenauts? (sh.itjust.works)

He can create a time machine, black holes, death, war, and literally create and kill God. Am I wrong for saying he's the most powerful character?

You can't compare power levels across franchises that are very different from one another (Superman vs Goku type stuff barely works).

You can if you're having fun.

Supes would absolutely smoke Goku, btw.

Sure, for fun. Most people starting this kind of discussion seem to be looking for definitive answers though.

Are they though? I’ve always seen these speculative discussions as more of a fun thought exercise/excuse to quibble lightheartedly with friends. It’s a competition seeing who can basically assert their opinion in fun, funny, and/or clever ways. I don’t think anyone expects to actually come to a concrete conclusion or consensus

Your experiences with these discussions seem to be better than mine, that's all I know.

I guess my friends are just more chill lol

They're both insanely overpowered, but while Goku can literally smash the universe, Superman can destroy the multiverse.
