Actually...maybe. Thor and Hulk have scattered showings that may throw monkeys into the wrench though.

It should be noted that, feat-wise, Spider-Man has provably dodged and avoided everyone on this list repeatedly except for Gladiator (who he's never fought to my knowledge), and has also knocked out Hulk (PIS of course, but a great damage-avoiding feat), and I think Namor (it was forever ago, like early 70's...my memory's sketchy on their encounter). I'm not arguing for him any higher than he is, but it's a fun bit of trivia.

The bottom of the bracket is all pretty close. There isn't an insurmountable different in reflexes / combat speed between Thor, Namor, Hulk and The Thing, they are all fast enough to bang it out with one another, but there is a perceptible difference and that's the order I feel they shake out in.

True but that has nothing to do with reflexes (Thor has Mjolnir for defense as well). Superman is a smart missile (can change directions to follow Spidey) while lasers and bullets are dumb and can't change directions in flight.

It does to me.

Why do you have Hulk so low then? He's done everything Thor has in regards to reflexes and throwing down with Surfer and Glads, and other legitimate speedsters.

As far as I'm concerned Spider-man combat speed and reflexes feats are head and shoulders above Thor's. Everyone remembers Spidy blitzing Masterson, I'm sure?

carver9
Good comparison Srank. Masterson and Thor had a prolong, physical fight whereas Masterson couldn't even lay a glove on Spiderman.

See, there's no right answer. It's why the first few posts were pics and gifs. Spider-man has better quantifiable feats, sometimes even facing Thor and Hulk. But as soon as you start the ABC comparisons (Thor fought Superman, Gladiator, Surfer, etc. Hulk fought Thor, Surfer, etc.) then you have two competing theories that are irreconcilable. Welcome to comics.

Namor, Hulk and Thor alredy tagged or grabbed missiles, wich are much faster than bullets. Spider-man had problem to grab two bullets.

Pete has also snagged missiles. And run reflex-circles around at least Namor and Hulk in head-to-head matchups. And Masterson Thor, who ostensibly had the same power set. And Firestorm, a clear peer of many of these characters. The feats are there.

Also, in tracking down a missile, it's often a travel speed feat. They aren't juking around like crazy. We're talking reflexes here, not straight-line speed.

But I agree, all these characters have matchup-related feats where they face someone, and tag them, that should be much faster. Thus the irreconcilable differences I mentioned.

But Spiderman has also faced these people and looking at the way he went against them, I can see why people rank him so high. Look at his fight against Firelord, Absorbing man, Surfer, Masterson, hell, every Herald that he's faced got blitzed. Like I've said before, when it comes to fights, its hard to find someone matching Spiderman combat showings. People just need to throw their Pride out of the window and look at the truth.

As if truth exists in comics. I like the sentiment though.

I forgot about his fight with AM. Nice catch. I'd personally keep him above all but Surfer and maybe Glads on the list. But I'm usually - but not always - higher on Pete than the "room" so to speak.

Grab airplanes missiles with the hand is not a "travel feat".

I agree with that : Namor, Thor and Hulk having more low showings of speed than Spider-man.

But they high-end speed feats are way better.

Hulk alredy tagged Peter with ease too for example.

The fight against Fire Lord and Materson is PIS imo.

Digi
Originally posted by eaebiakuya

I said "often." I was having to discuss a feat I hadn't seen, and I made that clear.

That's a good feat. All of these characters have good feats. It doesn't change the fact that SM's reflex feats are better overall. Go to his respect thread (DarkCrawler's, the newest and biggest) and find the reflex section. There's, no joke, hundreds that compete with that one.

Hulk tagging SM is also realistic, because he's not going to dodge forever. But if Pete can tag Hulk 10x before Hulk tags him once, he has better reflexes. I'd say that's almost conservative given their few matchups.

Spiderman has webbed up missiles shot at him.

I think all top tier streets have faster reflexes / combat speed feats than Thor... because they do. Since I don't care about how Thor matches up against Superman, I don't need to pretend he is faster than he is like lot of posters (not necessarily you) on KMC do.

Hulk tags Spiderman, Wolverine etc when he needs to and has easily tagged Quicksilver, punched a speeding Sentry in mid-flight, hit an amped Surfer with a rock who was flying at top speed, dodged Mjolnir throws, grabbed a speeding Surfer mid-flight, caught Speedfreak etc etc. Hulk doesn't need to evade most things he's a tank, Spiderman has far less durability and far less weight to carry so he's obviously going to be a lot more agile and need to dodge things more often. His spider-sense also aids him in dodging attacks too, Hulk's reactions are far above human, and definitely rival Thor, Spiderman etc.

False! Spidey and Logan has tagged Hulk also.
Hulk tags Spidey and Logan only after trying countless times. Characters don't usually dodge forever. But tagging someone has to do with speed, not reflexes. Reflexes is responding to what someone else's done. Spidey has infinite reflexes, he can dodge before the initial attack is launched. Also you can't gauge Hulk's speed and reflexes based off what he did to other characters. Comic characters are notorious for not using their top speed. Look at Superman and Surfer as an example. Sentry, Surfer, Mjolnir, etc. wasn't going that fast when Hulk responded to them. Also distance to react affects time in which to react. For example, Spidey responding to a bullet 2 inches from his body trumps Hulk responding to someone or something flying at similar speeds from far back. Hulk has never dodged or responded to light speed attacks, Spidey has. Only a serious joke thinks that Hulk has better reflexes than Spidey when clearly Spidey has the better feats and the Most consistent showings.

Spidey has danced circles around hulk. There is no competition regarding speed between spidey and hulk.

As far as reacting after the attack this is spot on.
But I based Spidey as being #1 simply because of his SS; when an attack starts he would have already reacted (Pre-Cog). This is why he can dodge light speed attacks by surprise.

So if Reflex speed = time to react after event then Spidey would have INFINITE reflexes since his time to react is 0. Where others, including Surfer, is a tiny fraction that is very close to 0.

This is one of the dumbest things I have ever read.

Reflex is the speed in which you react to a stimulus. Him knowing a punch is coming doesn't make his reaction time infinite, because he isn't reacting to the punch in the first place, he is reaction to his Spider-Sense. In Spider-man's case, the stimulus is his Spider-Sense. The lag between the time his Spider-Sense goes off, and when he reacts to that sensation would be is reaction time.

This is where you fail to understand the spirit of the thread or why the thread was created. Clearly the OP wants to know who can respond to external threats the fastest. The answer is Spidey. Who care's about his reflex to respond to his SS when he will still respond to an attack before it or as it happens?

What you speak is not interesting or relevant to a battle situation (in which this forum is all about). Why ask a question that's irrelevant to a battle situation? For all practical purposes Spidey can RESPOND to any instant threat faster than any character in this thread. The mechanical of how he responds is irrelevant in light of the spirit of the thread.

facepalm

Of course it's relevant, you are claiming that Spider-man's reaction time is ∞... and isn't. He reacts to the information he processes from his Spider-Sense the same as everyone else reacts to other sensory information. It's not an instantaneous reaction, which means there is a latency between the time he is warned of an incoming an attack, and the time his mind has processed that information and sent out the order to move out of the way. If Superman throws a fast ball at Spider-man he'll hit Spider-man in that gap of time between when Spider-man's Spider-Sense goes off, and when his brain sends out the order to do anything about it. The same isn't true for Silver Surfer, who may need to wait until he perceives the attack to react to it... but unlike Spider-man he would be fast enough to react.

JakeTheBank
Spidey has also stated that while his Spider-Sense will alert him to danger, he still needs to be able to physically dodge said danger or react to it.

His reaction time to DANGER is infinite because he responds before the threat is even initialized, not after. Who cares about anything else? This thread is about reflex time, not speed. If Spidey had Superman's speed along with the SS then not even Superman can hit him.


What you don't know is that the SS is pre-cog and Spidey will move before the ball is thrown. But Spidey will get hit by Superman's fastball simply because Superman will adjust to Spidey's new position in early swing. Thus he is a smart attack. Lasers (dumb attacks) have been dodged by Spidey before they were fired. Lasers don't adjust while or even after being fired as they fire instantaneously (no swinging motion). To Superman throwing a ball is not instantaneous and thus his throwing motion can be adjusted in mid swing.

He sometimes dodges BEFORE the attack is even launched. This is why he has dodged countless laser and energy beams shot at him from all angles (including from behind). If a bullet will be fired at your head in the upcoming 2 seconds then you don't need to be fast to move your head out of the way. Just simply move before the 2 seconds gets here.

Lol @ infinite reflexes of Spiderman.

I always thought the Spidey sense just told him something was going to happen, it wasn't Midnighter-ish 'event A followed by event B followed by event C', more like 'something is wrong, but no specifics'.

So he doesn't have infinite reflex speed.

He knows an attack is coming, he braces for a punch....only to be kicked in the nuts. That kind of thing.

Sure, but than there's dodging wall to wall machinegun fire. At that point, it's pure reaction and reflex.

The same way Daredevil ricocheting bullets anywhere he pleases is a reflex feat for him, even though he has his radar sense.

So he doesn't have infinite reflex speed.

He knows an attack is coming, he braces for a punch....only to be kicked in the nuts. That kind of thing. He knows where an attack is coming from.

What if it was the Flash throwing SpeedForce imbued bullets at him?

Mindset
He'd punch Flash in the face.

Spider-man faced Hulk half a dozen times and 90% of the time was shown running circles around him. Sometimes Hulk ends up grabbing him (for obvious reasons) but its 10 shots for every shot Hulk lands. As far as their Encounters go reflexes speed is no contest. The most recent example of how such fights usually go is Spider-man vs Rulk. And that was Rulk before he became lame and started jobbing to everyone.

You have to be able to determine how much precog factors into that though

Also it is a fallacy to assume that hitting a character means you have faster reflexes than them. So showings of Hulk tagging Spidey doesn't mean Hulk has faster reflexes than Spidey.

According to your statements Spider-Man takes forever to respond to a threat once his SS has warned him about it . Based on this he shouldn't even be included in this thread since he's too slow(according to you) in comparison to others

Sam , you have my permission to slap him . Slap him with your sickness .

Say someone points a gun at you, and tells you he's about to pull the trigger.

You can see it coming. You should have no problem dodging it, right?

Spidey's precog only gives him warning. Actually dodging wall to wall bulletS.. That's the reflex/speed feat. Not too many can match him in that category.

Took him some time to get used to not having it (even got shot at first) but eventually adapted. Dodged machinegun fire, explosions point blank range, ran circles around Batroc, Scorpion and Avengers Academy etc

tier 2 or just sub-tier 1:

tier 3:
Namor

Tier 4:

Tier 5:

The gap between tiers gets bigger as you go up. Tier 4 to Tier 5 is like...the difference between RJJ and a lesser boxer; A few hits landed for dozens taken.

What you don't know is that the SS is pre-cog and Spidey will move before the ball is thrown. But Spidey will get hit by Superman's fastball simply because Superman will adjust to Spidey's new position in early swing. Thus he is a smart attack. Lasers (dumb attacks) have been dodged by Spidey before they were fired. Lasers don't adjust while or even after being fired as they fire instantaneously (no swinging motion). To Superman throwing a ball is not instantaneous and thus his throwing motion can be adjusted in mid swing.

http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maj1gfDnao1qbh830o2_500.gif

Superman wouldn't need to adjust his aim to hit Spider-man. Clark is so fast that he would clock Spider-man LONG before Parker even thought about reacting to the warning his Spider-Sense afforded him. That's what this thread is about. Who's reaction time will afford them the largest leeway in dodging or avoiding an attack... and the answer isn't Spider-man. Even with the handicap his Spider-Sense gives him Parker doesn't have the fastest reflexes of the characters listed in this thread.

Mindship
Reflexes are a two-part process: perception and reaction. With spider-sense, Spider-Man may perceive something sooner than Superman does, but by the time his spider-motor system reacts, Superman has also seen what's coming, and with his super-motor system has already responded.

General reaction feats on par with what you'd see from street levelers, like they have, but also things above that, like very complex tasks like molding statues or what not within a panel or two.

That's one I'm not set in stone for though.

The warning is still pre cog. That is why he can dodge lasers. If it wasn't then he wouldn't be able to dodge lasers. Have all the members on the list stand in a horizontal line. Fire a laser beam at each member at the same time. The first to respond is the winner. Spidey will be first to act thus he is the winner.

If his SS gives him a 1 sec head start then he would be out of the way before Superman even starts his motion. If Spidey moves AFTER Superman starts his motion then he will get hit.
Spidey dodges lasers ONLY because he moves out of the way BEFORE they are initialized.

That was alien tech that even Vulcan was unable to detect.

The blurry punches was stated by the narriator as something that was happening "instantly". Then we have this...

Faster than bullets? You mean missiles? They usually seem much slower in comics than bullets and Spider-man cought them a few dozen times anyway and with ease. That feat of Sentry really is beyond what Spider-man's capable off but not all heralds can perform that feat. Dont see Thor fighting at Quicksilver's speed tbh, not sure about Silver Surfer but doubt it as well. And I honestly dont see them replicating some of Spider-man's combat speed feats. Surfer speedblitzed Nova, Spider-man speedblitzed entire teams of people with superhuman reflexes. Its not as cut and dry as you make it sound. Guys like Thor and SS logically should have better reflexes and combat speed but thats not how they're usually shown in comics.

Do you have no concept of how fast Superman is? He moves well in excess of light speed. Parker's spider-sense wouldn't have even finished going off before Superman finished what ever he was doing.

Things like Pre-Cog/Mindreading is useless fluff if you are still too physically slow.

Somewhat similar;
Fight some hard boss in a video game and put on slow-motion mode for everything, and even if you see the attacks being telegraphed easier now, there's still the issue of you needing to move fast enough to do anything about it--which will still be hard, seeing as you're still moving at the same relative speed that made the boss tough to begin with.

Yes.

I have no idea why this point needs to be stressed to certain posters, but there is a difference between perceiving an attack and reacting to it.

Although Surfer never uses it in battle it does constitute as pre-cog and thus his reflexes can exceed Spidey's. So Surfer might be the top dog here.

Originally posted by Silent Master

He once covered the distance of at least 10 yards before bullets from machine guns traveled a similar distance. This means he covered said distance in less than a hundredth of a second. So in a second he can cover more than 500 yards easily.

Let's say Spidey is 10ft away from Superman and Superman will fly into the spot where Spiderman is in exactly 23 seconds from now. Between 22.90 and 22.91 seconds Spidey would have moved his entire body out of the spot. Then when 23 seconds arrives (.09 seconds later) Superman will fly into the spot where Spidey was, completely missing him. What's hard to understand here?

Yes he would. Because he would move slightly before it was fired. Somewhat like a false start in sprinting. All other characters would move AFTER the laser was fired.

False, aim dodging as in what street levelers do =/= what Spidey does. Spidey can dodge a laser from a stand still by moving right before it fires. No street leveler can do this. Spidey will be the first to act from a standstill to any threat before any character on the list.


Bottom line, Spidey can act BEFORE anyone on the list. This is why he has the best reflex speed.

Reread my post. You didn't understand. I said that Spidey will move out the way between 22.90 and 22.91 seconds (.01 seconds to move out of the way). Superman will fly at 23 seconds (.09 seconds after Spidey moved).

Think of this, you ducking my punch before I swing. When you are ducked I swing at a spot where you are not.
