Speedblitz by PG

Without that . . . srug I'd go with BB

UniOmni
When has PG ever shown speedblitz capabilities?

Most Kryptonians have considerable superspeed.

UniOmni
True.

But when has she shown the ability to do so?

Nova can make stars go boom, but that doesn't mean Surfer gets that nod.

Has she shown a blitz tactic, ever?

If we go by Power girls origin, she should be stronger than Superman. She is a precrisis Earth 2 Kryptonian. BB is screwed. By the time he amps up to her lvls of strength, she would have taken his head off with Heat vision.

Why would he fight her H2H when it would be far more effective to yell at her?

How about we ignore that, and go by how the comics themselves present her, yea?

I'd peg her at a class 90 brick with low level hv, and low end durability.

She's never been shown as a Post crisis worthy Kryptonian in recent years, much less a PC one.

Umkaythanxbye!

I think Black Bolt's more durable than most give him credit for. If PG does successfully speedblitz him, it's not like it would take him out before he could get out a yell.

She's actually been upgrading alot since her true origin has been coming into focus. She was class 90 when we thought she was aquaman's cousin. Due to her being inhibited by what ever. Umthanxbye

He has used he yell in a fight. And frankly BB isn't stupid since he gets basic knowledge of who he's fighting I somehow doubt that he'll decide the try to slug it out with her.

I can't see PG beating Black Bolt. She's the leader of the JSA now so maybe Johns will toughen her up but based on her current resume? No way, speedblitz be damned.

By that argument he could just stay away from her eyes.

Anyway what stops him from responding to heat vision with a sentence or two?

PeeGee has never been shown to move that fast or even a quarter that fast.

Plus HV isn't light speed either.

light > sound...

i thought we all knew that...

still BB ftw...

UniOmni
Hv moves at the speed of thought, since it's basically tk that operates on the molecular level.

Ever see Superman flying on earth, and his hv leaving a trail behind him?

Not the speed of light, but Thought.
And he'd likely just shield himself, problem solved.

SpunkySmurph
Would Black Bolt be able to control the heat vision, disperse it, or draw it in as energy? Seems likely.

Here's that scene of Superman and Wally "racing" and HV failing to catch Wally. Superman was moving at 2000 miles per second.

Hv isn't light.

It's not a true laser, like Majestic has.

Remember the comic where Flash was running from Superman who was trying to talk to him?

Superman put out a bit of hv to try and tag him, and get him to stop, and Flash outran it?

He hadn't even hit the sound barrier yet, iirc.

HV is telekinetic molecular agitation focused through the eyes of kryptonians and daxamites.

IT moves as fast as the speed of their thought.

Can BB move that fast to evade it or react to it is the question.

I have to pull out my supergirl comics with PG in them. PG seems as Powerful as SG. I don't think BB can beat Supergirl for a majority. EVen split. I'd take PG the same. The scream seems to have lost some of it's luster.

They gave an excuse for PeeGee being as powerful as SG in those books. Their close proximity had a side effect of powering up Karen.

Didn't have to do with the fact that she wasn't used to her powers or her heritage? Or something like that. PG was pretty tuff when she was just an atlantean. She's much better now. What ever. BB will be the new flavor of the month for the board and he will beat everyone this side of thanos with his scream. even if the other person is far faster.

UniOmni
The same was never said about Superman and OrigiSupes, was it Vally?

It'd explain how a post crisis Superman matched a PC Superman, but i doubt DC would let them take the luster away from post crisis Supes, given the push and all.

UniOmni
What speed feats does PG have that even begins to justify the words speedblitz?

Not to mention BB has done one of his own before.

Post Crisis Supers didn't really seem to match the Pre Crisis Supers. And PG was a time displaced person. Which had somethign to do with her powerup around SG.

The effect was different for every character. When Lex met Alex, he (Lex) became weaker. They never specified anything in regards to the Supermen.

Which would seem odd given the fact that the PC kryptonian is the one who broke the time barrier or reality barrier or what ever it was. I've only seen S1M do that. Post Crisis must have had a power up. If not, Then he would be at precrisis lvls and irgo every one in DC would need to be examined due to thier performances with, or around, or against him.

So to your mind, any solar powered kryptonian can pull off a speedblitz, even if they haven't done so yet?

Huh.

PG isn't a simple cut and dry case though.

She's not particularly impressive, except for her cup size.

And it's debateable that she's even stronger than the normal showings of BlackBolt at all.

Well see. She was already Stronger than his normal lvls when she was just an atlantean. She was stronger than aquaman who is around 80 tons. I'd wager as the leader of the JS, well see some feats. Stick around. I"m not giving BB the majority knowing that he isn't as fast or strong or as durable as the average kryptonian.

Symmetric Chaos

They should be able to.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Especially when people who are very similar have the feat.

UniOmni
But what you don't seem to get, is that she's not the average kryptonian.

She's not as fast, strong or durable as the average Kryptonian either.

And for someone who fights the Sphinx, Thor, Hulk, Gladiator, Ikaris and others and doesn't seem to be physically outclassed, her being stronger than class 80 Drippy means squat.

What's she gonna do?

Punch him? He's been hit hardeer.

HV him? If he takes the blast, which i'd seriously doubt he'd be written to do, ehh.
She's done nothing exceptional with hv to tell me it'd be a deciding factor.

And her durability isn't leagues above his. Read JSA. See how she gets manhandled by true top tiers.

That would be a crappy stance to debate from, in all seriousness.

That'd be like me saying Surfer can make a star go nova, since Nova did, and she wasn't anywhere near as experienced with the PC as him.

Unless they proved the ability on panel, it's reaching to try and give them potential feats.

PG hasn't shown the ability to speedblitz, i'm not gonna give it to her.

It's also a logical fallacy if used as an argument. I was just using it to point out that since she is Kryptonian it's not unreasonable to say that she has powers that Kryptonians have.

The way DC has desgined Kryptonians its hardly stretching to say that she has superspeed IMO.

From a position as literal as yours it's impossible to argue that characters with superstrength can lift any weight except for the exact ones they have been shown to stick out tongue

See, but the thing you're doing is mistaking a powerset, with power applications.

BB has superspeed himself, since he flies pretty much the same way Superman and his clan do, by manipulating the gravitons around themselves.

He's done a move that would fall under the category of speedblitz once that i recall, but he's done it at least.

Power Girl, not so much.

I don't try to argue from a point of rigid literal showings, but i also try not to give where they haven't proved.

BB controls electrons, and has manipulated minature blackholes in combat before.

That doesn't mean i can say he'd open a minature blackhole in his hand and absorb all the hv she pours out at him.

And you've also got to remember, that Karen isn't a regular kryptonian.

She's not anywhere near as powerful, fast or durable.

She has a record of consistent underachievement.

He's got a record of consistent good showings, and i personally can't wait for SW 05, where he takes on Sentry.

Oh, and I'm actually sort of cringing at the thought of him fighting Sentry next month... in the past years or so, BB has been downgraded from a high level matter manipulator with complete utter control over electrons and a quasi-sonic scream that can shatter planets.... to Banshee on vocal steroids.

UniOmni
The fact that she happens to be a kryptonian seems to be all that Nvr is going on, despite the fact that she's never even been truely top tier in showing.

Her durability is laughable, her speed is nondescript in the big picture(speedblitz my black ass) her strength isn't anything beyond Thing, and her hv is bottom of the barrel.

I don't see what Nvr sees, besides the bloodline.

He still has control over electrons, as seen in the mini Jenkins did a couple of years ago.

They mentioned him being able to disintegrate people with a thought.

And in Illuminati, he recently tore open a hole in reality with his voice, by way of some machine or something.

Or he powered a machine that tore open a hole in reality with his voice, i gotta reread the issue.

For Vally - BB screams and reality tears open.
A guardian has to sacrifice his life to get the same effect.

BB>Average smurf

the Darkone
BB has defeated hulk twice, Gladiator twice, beat Ikaris, man handles the thing. BB can increase his strength or he uses his outrages powers, antimatter, quasi-scream, electron manipulation, psionic powers, transmutation, master blow. BB wins the majority.

BB>Average smurf I believe what happened was that the machine channeled the force of his voice into one concentrated area, or somesuch.

Despite that, BB used to be able to turn a boulder into an antimatter bomb on a whim. Now he's a guy with a couple tricks and some strong vocals. Believe me, if a writer who gives his history some credit decides to write him half-decently, then I'll be the first to jump for joy. But I can't say that I'm not apprehensive...

UniOmni
BB doesn't have psionic powers.

He can simulate them tho, by directly manipulating the electrons in someones brain, ala Classic Ion.

Mind you battlebaggers, i'm not saying BB = Ion by any means. That's just how classic Ion experimented with mind control/reading.

That's all.

He can also create constructs, solidify air, water, and anything else, cause the ground to melt like butter, hypnotise people, take control over people's actions, take control of miniature black holes, and more.

BB wins this without too much trouble.

I honestly doubt we'll be seeing him use antimatter freely anymore in the future.

If BB took all his older showings, and his great record(he's got losses like everyone else, but not many, kinda like Superman) and went into the DCU, he'd be premiere elite material easily.

He's just not as popular as other characters tho, and like Darkseid, he's gone from great versatility to a one trick character, and if that trick fails, the writer gives up on him.

Dreaming of a bygone era.

If we assume that PG can pull off a quick attack to take him out she can win. If we assume that she can't she'll die.

Wrong.

SpunkySmurph
True, he does appear to be more of a DC-esque character, but I'd like to see a couple more of those in Marvel, personally. I guess that's just how it works, though.

Well, in the Inhuman's maxi-series, it was said that he had never been defeated, and the writer specifically adressed (and retconned) all of his major losses to wins, as well as, I believe, addressed his major victories.

Post that, I don't recall what losses he had. Obviously we can expect to see some in the upcoming World War Hulk series, however.

UniOmni
To Vally, i already admitted my recollection of the comic was hazy. Smurf set it right. LOSER!!

And to SC, why would we assume she can blitz him when she hasn't shown the ability, but he has?

And he already handled a blitz of sorts from Ikaris, so i wouldn't count on that.

Hey trickster. There are a couple of other stone faced blue grey guys. Greyven, Darkseid's other son has been doing a couple of nasty things lateley, and Blaster is blue grey too. He can even hurt the eternals with his powers. :P Kara doesn't need to survive the scream. She just needs to move fast enough to get behind him and pull that antenna out of his head.

she has the speed advantage, how strong is BB in h2h just wondering.

To NVR, and what speedfeats have she done to suggest she's capable of doing that manuever?
