How Strong Is Hyperion (Marvel’s Superman)

Jun 25, 2025
Hyperion’s backstory screams Superman: born on a doomed world and sent to Earth-616 as a child. Just like the Man of Steel, he draws his energy from the sun, becoming more powerful the longer he basks in solar radiation. But unlike Superman, Hyperion has been part of a fractured multiverse, often isolated and forged in conflict. This gives his character a unique complexity. #marvel #comics #superhero #story #hyperion

hyperion may look like Marvel's version
0:03
of Superman but don't be fooled his
0:06
story is packed with cosmic battles
0:08
universe shaking feats and a level of
0:11
power that might just eclipse the man of
0:13
steel himself from surviving blasts that
0:16
melt granite to holding back two entire
0:19
universes from colliding Hyperion is a
0:22
powerhouse forged in a multiverse of
0:24
chaos and conflict whether he's punching
0:27
the Hulk back into Bruce Banner or
0:29
catching a planet mid-flight Hyperion's
0:32
strength speed and atomic vision put him
0:35
in a league of his own this deep dive
0:37
explores why Hyperion isn't just
0:39
Marvel's Superman he might be something
0:42
even greater hyperion's backstory
0:45
screams Superman born on a doomed world
0:48
and sent to Earth 616 as a child just
0:51
like the man of steel he draws his
0:53
energy from the sun becoming more
0:55
powerful the longer he basks in solar
0:58
radiation but unlike Superman Hyperion
1:01
has been part of a fractured multiverse
1:03
often isolated and forged in conflict
1:06
this gives his character a unique
1:08
complexity right from the start
1:11
Hyperion's durability places him among
1:13
Marvel's toughest blaze cannon no
1:16
problem this weapon wielded by the mer
1:18
is capable of liquefying stone and
1:21
melting granite hyperion stood in its
1:23
path without so much as a scratch
1:26
armor-piercing missile shrugged off not
1:29
a bullet but a missile designed to
1:30
pierce heavy defenses again it barely
1:33
phased him hits from mindcontrolled Hulk
1:37
the Hulk in an enraged manipulated state
1:40
dealt massive blows and Hyperion took
1:43
them like he was made of reinforced
1:44
titanium survived blasts from the high
1:47
evolutionary this cosmic level being can
1:50
manipulate matter and energy yet even
1:52
his attacks couldn't take Hyperion down
1:55
one of the most jaw-dropping moments
1:57
occurred during a battle with Terminus a
2:00
cosmic threat designed by a dying race
2:02
to exact revenge on the Celestials thor
2:05
fed up with the battle calls down a
2:08
storm with lightning strong enough to
2:10
burn the world as Thor invokes his godly
2:13
might Hyperion flies straight into
2:16
Terminus head faster than the lightning
2:18
itself destroying the creature let that
2:21
sink in hyperion outpaced Thor's
2:24
lightning and obliterated an enemy built
2:27
to withstand cosmic forces hyperion's
2:30
heat vision or more accurately atomic
2:32
vision is a marvel on its own travels at
2:36
light speed hyperion himself states his
2:38
beams move at the speed of light which
2:40
is roughly 700 million mph can flatten
2:44
the Hulk he's knocked the Hulk backward
2:46
using it decapitated Namore in one of
2:50
his more brutal moments Hyperion used
2:52
his atomic vision to cut Namore's head
2:54
clean off it's not just about brute
2:56
force hyperion senses are on another
2:59
level read DNA from orbit using his
3:02
microscopic vision he can identify
3:04
someone's DNA from space
3:06
see electrons orbiting nuclei he doesn't
3:09
just see atoms he sees subatomic
3:11
particles in motion identify corpses
3:14
from other universes that's the level of
3:17
precision we're talking about oh and he
3:20
has a photographic memory rounding out
3:21
his absurdly high intellect now let's
3:24
get into the ridiculous feats of
3:26
strength ripped off the high
3:28
evolutionar's arm this is a character
3:30
who regularly battles cosmic level
3:32
beings lifted Atlantis from the ocean
3:36
yes the entire city of Atlantis hyperion
3:40
pulled it from the sea and slammed it
3:42
down completely destroying it by himself
3:46
in a fight scene that deserves more
3:47
spotlight Hyperion punched the Hulk so
3:50
hard that he reverted back into Bruce
3:52
Banner not knocked out not stunned
3:55
literally transformed back into his
3:57
human form that's strength on a
3:59
psychological and physical level that
4:02
even few Marvel Titans have ever
4:04
demonstrated still not impressed let's
4:07
go bigger hyperion once caught an entire
4:10
planet hurling toward Earth and held it
4:12
in place while Thor worked on
4:14
redirecting it Hyperion's strength alone
4:17
prevented catastrophic destruction
4:20
imagine the gravity the momentum the
4:22
mass and then imagine one man holding
4:25
that back that's where we are with
4:27
Hyperion the ultimate feat it happened
4:30
during the incursion events when two
4:32
universes were on a collision course
4:34
hyperion stood alone and held two
4:37
universes apart with his arms he kept
4:39
them from crashing for several minutes
4:41
while all other heroes had already
4:44
failed the comic literally states
4:46
"Hyperion held them apart until the
4:49
worlds broke." Even after the universes
4:52
collapsed and exploded Hyperion survived
4:55
the explosion of his universe a blast
4:57
that erased reality itself let's recap
5:01
some of his staggering feats survived
5:03
energy blasts that melt granite tanked
5:06
punches from Hulk and blasts from cosmic
5:08
level beings outsped Thor's god
5:11
lightning used atomic vision to
5:13
decapitate Namore identified DNA from
5:16
space lifted Atlantis punched Hulk into
5:20
Bruce Banner caught a planet mid-flight
5:23
held apart two universes and lived to
5:26
tell the tale this isn't just strength
5:28
this is nextlevel god tier
5:30
realitybending power hyperion isn't just
5:33
Marvel's answer to Superman in many ways
5:36
he outclasses even the man of steel
5:39
despite his power Hyperion remains
5:41
relatively underused in mainstream
5:43
Marvel media but given his feats it's
5:45
clear he could rival or even surpass
5:47
some of the most well-known heavy
5:49
hitters in comic book history if Marvel
5:52
ever wants to introduce a character who
5:53
could believably go toe-to-toe with
5:55
Superman Hyperion is that
