Can a Jedi lightsaber cut through Superman?

    The only thing that would determine it would be the location of the battle.
    If it happens on earth or in any solar system with a yellow sun, then the light saber would not harm him.
    Even if you set the light saber to match the frequency or temperature of a red sun, Superman would still be under the overwhelming influence of the yellow sun, drawing power from the yellow sun and thus would be impervious to the light saber, even if it was red.

    Everyone keeps saying, "...If the Jedi can even get close enough to Superman."

    A Jedi's Force Throw powers would have to factor in here. Take out the yellow sun (say it's happening on a Rebel transport) and a Kryptonian crystal used in the construction of the lightsaber. A Force throw or lift could at least stun Superman long enough to get close and engage the Man of Steel in combat.

    Why yes, I do sleep alone. Why do you ask?

    Forget all of that. What I want to see is Superman get some Jedi training. Then there would be no stopping him.

    Wouldn't Hal Jordan/Green Lantern (FUCK Kyle Rayner) be a more worthy candidate for Jedi training?

    Wouldn't it matter what planet the said encounter with Superman and the light saber happened? If it's on a planet in a system that does not have a yellow sun, Superman's power would be greatly diminished. So if the encounter occurred in say the Hoth system, a light saber might very well take out Superman.

    He could certainly use it more. I'm still not sure what exactly his power is.

    That Superman would battle Rebels on Hoth scares me. Darth Superman? That's enough to induce nightmares.

    Were the suns on Tatooine Red or Yellow... I can't remember.
    If the fight was there, with two red suns shining bright, wouldn't Superman be in alot of trouble?

    Twin yellow suns. Superman would fuck Mos Eisley up proper.

    Aren't all of Superman's powers physical? A jedi could just say, "I am not the man you want to send flying through 17 states with a flick of your finger." Or, "I am not the guy in a hood you are looking to destroy with your laser eyes." Basically, a jedi could make Superman his bitch, if he really wanted to. Then he could have Superman do the dirty work. Unless the sun gives Superman mental powers I'm not aware of.
