This has been yet another one of those nights where I tripped and fell headfirst down a "versus battle"/"whowouldwin" rabbithole. I'll try to keep this generally speaking, but there are a few specifics of this particular instance of rabbitholing which I'll mention toward the end.
It seems to almost invariably come down to some form of either Superman or Goku. Granted, there are other characters, like Lucifer Morningstar (with or without Michael Demiurgos) or Featherine Augustus Aurora or Elder God Demonbane or Saitama or Bugs Bunny or whoever else, but even those often tend to get thrown at Superman and/or Goku.
With Goku, there's broken shit like Xeno (not to be confused with Zeno), but he's usually just a part of Composite Goku (which may or may not include things like Vegito or Gogeta).
As for Superman, I've long been aware of broken stuff like Superman Prime One Million and Superman with the Sword of Superman and, of course, the fucking Thought Robot/Cosmic Armor Superman. However, tonight, I learned of the existence of two more completely busted Supermans, those being Strange Visitor Superman and... ...Milkman Superman (aka Milkman Man). And... it is there, with the concept of "Milkman Man," that I have to bail completely the fuck out of this particular instance of this particular rabbithole and go the hell to bed.
In the end, it all boils down to nerds arguing (usually poorly) at each other on the Internet. It's morbidly fascinating to look at, occasionally, but I can only take it in small-ish doses.

I've liked what I've seen of JJBA (to the end of Stardust Crusaders in the anime, so far, as that was all that was available back when I made an effort to watch it, and about maybe halfway through Stone Ocean in the manga), and I don't mind when guys like Woolie go off on weird Jojo tangents during their otherwise unrelated Let's Plays or whatever, but I have little time or use for the rest of that stuff.
