** Batman, of all people, points out 'Beyond the impossible' is kinda the Kryptonian's default setting. While talking to an injured Kal-El, Bruce refuses to admit the diagnosis that Kal won't recover. He bases his conclusion on this. Kal not only does the impossible, he makes it look easy. No way he is going to die of an injury this way. Of course, Bruce is proven right...

B'dg is astonished and flat out states that even [[LivingLegend Hal Jordan]] couldn't have done that.

*** For this reason, and other oddities such as the Emerald Sight, Simon's RedBaron at the end of the Johns run is 'the Miracle Worker'.
** In general, the Earth Lanterns are particularly prone to this:
*** Hal managed to affect yellow in ''Secret Origin'' back when that was technically impossible, resurrected Coast City complete with sentient energy constructs, briefly overcome his Parallax possession without even knowing what it was to reignite Earth's sun before his death, successfully killed [[spoiler: Krona]] despite the fact that the rings were hardwired by the Guardians to be unable to do that, willed himself back from the dead as a Black Lantern and summoned Nekron to take on Volthoom before banishing him again, came back from the dead through sheer force of will (not for the first time), later forged his own Lantern Ring from his raw Will as he began to merge with the Spectrum after overuse of Krona's Gauntlet (also granting him a DeadlyUpgrade that allowed him to curbstomp a Parallax-powered Sinestro and obliterate War World), despite the fact that that was supposed to be impossible for any non-Guardian (though Ganthet, with an amused smile, just remarked that he was amazed it had taken Hal this long to prove them wrong), which served as a SoulJar so he could come back ''again'' with the help of White Lantern Kyle Rayner, Ganthet, and Sayd. There is a ''reason'' this guy is acknowledged as the ''greatest'' of the Green Lanterns.
*** Kyle Rayner, meanwhile, is acknowledged by Hal as the Greatest Lantern full-stop, being the only being to master all seven shades of the spectrum barring Volthoom (and unlike Volthoom, managed to do it without going nuts and finding all kinds of new uses for it), becoming the first White Lantern. Again, this is supposed to be impossible - while some Lanterns can wield two colours at a time, managing all seven is supposedly this trope. Except for Kyle. It's implied that it was for this reason that Ganthet picked him all those years ago to be the Torchbearer, despite the fact that Kyle was meant to be TheClosestThingWeGot. He even goes beyond the Source Wall and returns, with the Life Equation. And even long before this, he had a reputation for accidentally and entirely subconsciously creating flawless sentient constructs derived from his subconscious, as seen in the original ''Circle of Fire'' arc.
*** Guy Gardner repeatedly manages to control the Red Rings and retain his rationality, even dual-wielding a Red and a Green (he grumpily describes himself as the Christmas Lantern). This is despite (or perhaps because of) his HotBlooded nature, even without a bath in the blood lakes on Ysmault. No one's entirely sure how, though it may have something to do with the fact that he's potentially a great Blue Lantern, and capable of accessing the Blue Ring's constructs and weapons even without a Green around.
*** John Stewart managed to put Mogo back together, albeit with a little help from Mogo himself, after an EarthShatteringKaboom. He also, briefly, recreated the entire Xanshi system, and the construct only collapsed when the ring gave out.

** Bleez was TheStarscream ''before'' she regains her intelligence. While the other Red Lanterns are growling, "Kill, burn, stab, eat, hate, rage" she was going "Kill... Atrocitus....". In other words, while wearing a ring that turns its host into a mindless berserker, she held onto enough intelligence and focus to choose a specific target.

* Breaking Comicbook/CaptainAmerica's shield is usually defined as Beyond The Impossible. The few who have done it tend to have "omnipotent" on their resume: Doctor Doom with the power of the Beyonder, the Molecule Man (who described it as weirder than either Thor's hammer or the Silver Surfer's board), Thanos wielding ComicBook/TheInfinityGauntlet, or Thor's big brother, the Serpent. (In the Serpent's case, this was arguably CheapHeat.)
