After a brief stay with Superman , David wound up lost in the universe of discourse until Flash give away that Boy Thunder was living on Earth-22 . Superman and Batman went to the Earth variant and quickly get Boy Thunder , who had grown into the antihero Thunderman . Thunderman was far more fierce than the boy Clark lie with and David harbored such acute feeling of hate for Superman , that he triedusing his powers to kill his former mentor .
Superman ’s auditory sense being a faint item makes sense . Clark ’s auditory modality can pick up sounds from inconceivable distances , so it has to be extremely sensible . This idea was flirt with in the recentAction Comics # 1058 , where Superman made a magic doppelganger ’s ears phlebotomize by name him into every sound Clark can hear . While kryptonite or red solar radiation sickness is usually one of the go - to direction of hurting Superman , the Sojourner Truth is , he ’s well cognizant that his audience is an overlooked , but effective way of dealing with him .

Superman’s Hearing Weakness is Incredibly Overlooked
Superman might have rail himself to filter out noise , but if hisKingdom Comevariant is any indication , he does n’t do it all the time . All it ’d take is a decent enough beguilement and a well - timed , deafening pitch to get the dip on Superman and seriously hurt him . Few mass in the DC Universe can correspond his speed or posture , and even few can get their hands on kryptonite . But it ’s not as hard to figure out sonic - based attacks that could wound the Man of Steel ’s audience . IfSupermancould defeat himself by whistling , it ’s not outside the realm of hypothesis that others could too .
