"WAHSNEH POTS!!!"

Could it be that easy?

After her recent encounter with Lobo, I'm wondering if anyone can beat her...

Looks at her. She's ash.

Not easier than that. 😉

What did she do?

Me trying to explain it probably won't do it justice, I wish I had the scans.

But she basically went sorta bloodlust because Lobo had killed her father. She was freezing him in place and flaying his skin off just with her backwards speak. Then she let him loose and cast a spell that made all of his physical force bounce off of her and affect him. She was doing other stuff too.

It was a good showing for Lobo too in terms of durability, but Zatanna was a beast and she was just standing there talking backwards...

Sounds like a good read.

Well yeah, give her time to speak and you have trouble. That's the clincher though, Henshaw is faster than that.

Current Z, all three. Lobo's at least as fast as Henshaw.

Did Lobo attempt to rush her?

If Lobo rushed and she stopped him, that does not bode well for Henshaw.

What issue was this?

Reign in Hell #6

Current Zatanna is a beast.

As I see it:
1. Henshaw
2. Toss-up
3. Zatanna

How is 2 a toss up?

Without the necessary prep, Zatanna would not be able to cast a spell as fast as Cyborg would speedblitz her, unless she has an instantaneous spell that negates speedblitz

I'm leaning more to Cyborg in 2.

Doubtful. While Lobo has superspeed, he isn't anywhere near a kryptonian speedwise.

And he's certainly not as fast as heat vision which could easily end this fight decisively.

The only toss up is scenario 3. Henshaw while deranged is still a genius and with tech could conceivably come up with anything with his knowledge of oan/kryptonian/apokolyptan/tribunal/etc technology and his own powers PLUS the plot device rings, and Zatanna could come up with a whole lot with magic and artifacts.

That equals plot devices galore on both ends.
