Ranking Every Hero in Man of Tomorrow, From Weakest to Strongest

Superman’s sequel isn’t just bringing back familiar faces — it’s assembling a roster stacked with wildly different power sets, from gadget-based genius to god-tier strength. With Brainiac looming as the film’s central threat, here’s how all seven confirmed heroes stack up, and what each one truly brings to the fight.

1. Mr. Terrific — The Brains, Not the Brawn

Michael Holt might be the smartest person in the entire DCU, but Man of Tomorrow isn’t ranking its heroes by IQ. Mr. Terrific relies entirely on his T-Spheres and tactical gadgets rather than raw power, which is exactly why Superman didn’t lean on him during the fight against Ultraman in the first film. Against Brainiac, though, his analytical mind could prove more valuable than any punch, especially if outsmarting an android villain becomes the real key to victory.

2. Hawkgirl — Fierce, but Limited

Kendra Saunders brings serious physical combat skills to the Justice Gang, wielding her signature mace with brutal efficiency. Still, her power ceiling is noticeably lower than her teammates’, something she seemed to recognize herself when she stepped back rather than confront Superman directly during the first film’s climax. Expect her to hold her own against Brainiac’s drones, even if she isn’t the one delivering the finishing blow.

3. Blue Beetle — Unpredictable but Powerful

Jaime Reyes earned his spot in Man of Tomorrow thanks to his connection to James Gunn, making him one of the rare DCEU survivors to carry over into this new era. His alien Scarab grants him access to an ever-shifting arsenal of weapons, giving him serious offensive potential. The catch? The Scarab has a mind of its own, meaning Jaime’s performance in battle could swing wildly depending on how cooperative his suit feels that day.

4. Guy Gardner — Confidence Backed by Creativity

Guy Gardner talks a big game, and his Green Lantern ring gives him just enough power to somewhat back it up. Fueled by willpower, his ring lets him conjure virtually anything he can imagine, which he’s already used for both combat and comic relief. His ego might get him into trouble, but his construct-based creativity makes him a genuinely unpredictable wildcard against Brainiac.

5. John Stewart — Discipline Meets Power

Jumping straight from HBO’s Lanterns, John Stewart brings something Guy doesn’t: military discipline and real combat experience. That background gives him a tactical edge in high-stakes fights, making him a more grounded and reliable fighter despite wielding a similarly powerful ring. Against a threat as calculating as Brainiac, that composure could matter just as much as raw firepower.

6. Supergirl — Barely Held Back

Kara Zor-El’s solo film may have underperformed at the box office, but her power level was never in question — in fact, much of that movie was spent finding ways to limit her strength under a yellow sun. If Man of Tomorrow ties Brainiac to Krypton’s destruction, as the comics have done before, Kara will have every reason to finally unleash her full potential on screen.

7. Superman — Still the Strongest by Far

Even with his name dropped from the title, Superman remains the undisputed heavyweight of this roster. His 2025 debut already showed him pulling allies out of a black hole and defeating a more unstable version of himself. Brainiac will need more than physical force to take him down, because when it comes to sheer power, nobody in the DCU currently rivals the Man of Steel.
