Doctor Manhattan Respect Thread

[Beyonder]

Character Creation:

Doctor Manhattan, often shortened to Dr. Manhattan, is a fictional character who appears in comics published by DC Comics. He debuted in the graphic novel limited series Watchmen, published in 1986 and 1987. Doctor Manhattan was created by writer Alan Moore with artist Dave Gibbons.

The Watchmen series has been noted for addressing metaphysical issues and questions, Doctor Manhattan being the primary exponent. He is often used as an example of a post-human god. Reception towards the character is positive and he has appeared and has been mentioned in various forms of media. Doctor Manhattan later appeared in the Before Watchmen comic book prequel, with his own individual issue miniseries.

In 2016, as part of DC Comics' Rebirth campaign, Manhattan became a major antagonist: a factor that removed 10 years of history from DC characters following the Flashpoint event, creating The New 52 timeline in the process. His status as the major antagonist is confirmed by Geoff Johns in July 2017. Manhattan was later confirmed as a major character in Doomsday Clock. (by Wikipedia for quick knowledge only)

Origins:

In 1959, in an accident that was certainly unplanned and just as certainly unrepeatable, a young American man was completely disintegrated, at least in a physical sense. Despite the absence of a body, a form of electromagnetic pattern resembling consciousness survived, and was able, in time, to rebuild an approximation of the body it had lost.

Disclaimer:

This respect thread is going to be a collaboration of both his Watchman/DC Multiverse appearances and it will help debunk the "Featless" Doctor Manhattan for those so ignorant of his power and character purpose so enjoy this Dr.Manhattan Respect Thread!

NOTE: THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE MOVIE VERSION JUST THE COMICS!

Powers And Abilities

Dr.Manhattan Powers Consist of Reality, Time, Space, Matter, and Energy, Quantum  Manipulation these scales up to Universal to even Multiversal levels of power and to be more specific to help understand this being's tremendous power.

Size Manipulation, Near-Invulnerability, Cosmic Strength, Complete control/awareness of atomic/subatomic particles, Omnipresence (Simultaneously exist in all places at once and he has shown to do this in past, present, and future time eras), Immortality: Can reconstruct himself on a molecular level, doesn't need to sleep,eat,drink, and or breath, and he is ageless and has immunity to diseases and exist as long as all things exist,Omnikinetic (All Kinetic Abilities, All Manipulation Powers, All Telekinetic Powers and Telekinesis based powers), Teleportation, Flight, Can see the past, present, and future simultaneously, Phasing, transmutation, cloning (of himself), disintegration, force field creation, can create life, and can reverse death, reality-warping  of such high levels he warped reality in the DC Universe and re-created the metaverse, and then has such time manipulation powers that he straight up erase/stole the last 10 years of the DC Universe creating the New 52 himself.

Doctor Manhattan is so powerful that even Mister Mxyzptlk himself acknowledges and is aware that Jonathan Osterman aka Dr.Manhattan is more powerful than him, which is also shown when Doctor Manhattan himself killed the godlike Pandora (aka also known as Lilith) with a single hit, where Pandora alternate versions could one-shot the Multiverse if they wanted to.

Offensive Feats:

Blows the Head off a Thug

Casually Kills a normal human just by blowing up their head! using some unknown combustion power.

Uses his Size Alternating Power to make Vietnam Soldiers Submit

Uses his godlike power to make him a giant to scare of the vietnamese soldiers.

Dr.Manhattan Kills Rorschach

Doctor Manhattan's most infamous feat was killing Rorschach with a single one-shot of his god-like power.

Defensive Feats:

Recreates his Body on a Sub-Atomic Level Three Times

Dr.Manhattan proving his regenerative powers as he reforms himself from nothing the first time since he was physically destroyed.

What is an Intrinsic field subtractor? It's a man-build machine that utilizes radiation to remove the "intrinsic" fields from/around solid objects and usually speaking the object subjected to the machine's process is completely disintegrated on an atomic level leaving nothing behind but dust and mist, this same machine was used on Doctor Manhattan by Veidt aka Ozymandias to try to kill Doctor Manhattan and it failed to show that he can die but to show that he repair/regenerate himself no matter the damage.

Captain Atom a superhero who uses powers from the Quantum energy force itself which was used to have destroyed the physical form of Doctor Manhattan and yet again within seconds Dr.Manhattan just reconstructs his physical body as if the damage never even happened to him.

Shield Generation

Can make himself his own protect generated shield to protect himself or others from harm.

Other Known Feats:

Doctor Manhattan Kills Pandora

Pandora (Aka Lilith) herself was damning Doctor Manhattan for his interference and making her that way and as she was preaching about superheroes going to stop him and that justice and goodwill prevail and so to that, he erased her from existence as if the conversation never took place this attack is also what he did to Rorschach as he erased him on an sub-atomic level.

Note: Pandora is stated/implied/shown to be a more Multiversal threat than what most would see as she tanked blows from the Near-Omnipotent Spectre himself.

Doctor Manhattan stated to be Stronger than Mr.Mxyzptlk himself

Note: People will argue about "Feats" but forget Mr.Mxyzptlk himself can't do anything against a being of higher dimensionality than he is so even if Mr.Mxy can destroy a multiverse it won't do nothing to someone who is 10-Dimensional against his 5-Dimensional power.

Matter Manipulation Power

Doctor Manhattan matter manipulation is so experienced that he was capable of creating an entire fortress from nothing but sand from mars itself!

just by using matter around him was he capable of making water or milk itself from material that doesn't have such substance or material! turning sand into milk or water!

Space Manipulation

Just using the power to manipulate space around a physical being was he able to let Laurie breath out in Outerspace.

Dr.Manhattan disassembles a Gun

Doctor Manhattan on an atomic level disassembles a normal gun just by lifting his hand.

Size Manipulation

Doctor Manhattan by reconstructing his atoms can make himself any size he whims.

Phasing Powers

Duplication Powers

Telekinesis

Using his telekinesis Doctor Manhattan lifts his entire fortress from the grounds on mars itself.

Simanuously Existing in Multiple Locations Without Moving

Magic Manipulation/Immunity

Doctor Manhattan when facing off against the heroes of earth he displays he can adapt as none of the magic used on him did anything, and then in fact learned of the material or substance or material of what the magic is and was and used it against them displaying he is immune and can now manipulate magic on a small scale.

Reality Warping+Metaverse Recreation

Doctor Manhattan on-panel destroyed and recreated the universe which in affect he receated the Metaverse...the fundamentals of everything from timelines to realities (universes) and all things to do with shifting and making the Multiverse itself.

Weaknesses:

The only real weakness of Dr.Manhattan is Tachyon which disrupts his vision of seeing through time as it was explained here:

Debunking Misinformation:

Doctor Manhattan is the quantum observer at the center of infinite realities where there is an infinite amount of possibilities and he can choose the one he wants which better suits him, so he bends and warps reality and probabilities/possibilities to his very will and his own whim, It's almost impossible to beat him since out of infinite possible outcomes in a battle he can choose the one where he wins and make it the main reality in a indefinitely scenerio and even if by chance you manage to "defeat" him the he can just choose one where said possibility isn't possible or didn't exist in a instant.

So yes, Doctor Manhattan doesn't create universes out of pure raw energy or magic like the world forger or Perpetua is capable of but he does create universes in a different way. Since he's the quantum being when he makes an action or decision it creates the infinite possible realities and he can see all of the past, present, and future outcomes due to being Omnipresent through Time,Space, and Reality, So since his decisions does that let's say he decides to throw a punch at someone there will be multiple scenerios for it and he can see them at will and know the outcome itself.

Now you are wondering how do I and others know this?...he himself explained it...

This is also explained in the main DC Comic Omniverse that quantum reality is a factor to these universes.....

then here again Dr.Manhattan admits he recreated the said Metaverse to his liking.....yes he "recreated" not changed it like many misinterpreted.

So no to those making false claims of Dr.Manhattan being a "Time Traveler" or just that he is "Changing Time" but in actuality, he is creating whole new universes of infinite possibilities itself which he can/could/will bend/change/manipulate to his very whim....and he exists in them all and has the power to destroy the universe, possibility, and timeline if he surely wishes to as he has done before.
