Is there a guide to blocking each character's supermove?

I search google and the forums for a guide at blocking supermoves and couldn't find any I know some of them require you just to hold back or crouch to block it but there are some were noobs like me don't know how to block as we need encountered it before or we just don't have a clue on how to block or dodge it so any guides out there thanks.

Most of the cast, mainly characters that aren't used much like Shazam, Black Adam, Sinestro, Raven and Hawkgirl
If there isn't a guide to blocking supermove's maybe this should be the threat to it so future players who are seeking help like me may know how to block or evade supermoves and punish them?

"Supermoves" requires no apostrophe. Sorry, had to. All of those I know for sure you can block by holding away, but I don't know about Raven.

Also the title should use "there" not "their".

How do you guys deal with Grundy's super? He outruns Catwoman and I feel most of the cast would have trouble against it.

everyone you can block by holding back. Except Bane and Grundy(because they are unblockable) or Killer frost you have to block low.

Bane's can't be blocked, you need to jump away from that one. Grundy's is unblockable, you just need to try and run away from him. Killer Frost's must be blocked low. Hold down when blocking Scorpion's. All the others can be blocked by holding back. Every Super has armour, so don't try and hit them out of it or anything.

Also, when dealing with most people online, if you've just knocked them down and they have full meter, you BET YOUR ASS they're gonna wake up with a Super. Don't get caught by this.

Unless you're traited Superman or Minigun GL or Staff Spin Nightwing. They do work.
 
The best thing to do if you're ever wondering about a characters attack is to use them in practice mode, it will tell you where there super moves hit, how much damage all their basic attacks and combos do, and where those combos hit so you know how to block them, which is especially useful for combos like batman's b23 and other combos that hit low and overhead. Overall the best thing you can do is practice with a friend using, and defending against all the characters, this will also help you learn which one is the best for you, and I think it's an achievement/trophy to do all the characters super moves, so that can be considered worth while if you care about those.

Make sure you angle jump away from Bane (forward up or back up) because he has multiple set-ups that cannot be neutral jumped.

Just remember this.

Killer Frost = Low
Bane= Grab, so you need to jump it.
Solomon Grundy= Unblockable, you need to run away if you can.
Scorpion= Cross Over Hit so Block Low
Green arrow= Unblockable = Dash Jump

EVERYONE ELSE
Just press back to block.
The rest are all mids and overheads, so back to block will block it.
Just memorize those 5 to make it easier.

Superman's super is 1 frame
 
Go ahead and punish Doomsday's Earth Shake if you don't believe me. 2 FRAMES. Not 1.
Well, I'm just trusting what the number says in the game rather than what the community has deemed to be "true". I know everyone thinks is 2 frames, but the only number I've seen on paper is 1 frame. So, it's a 1 frame super.
