The Tidal wave challenge

2000 ft tidal wave on all ends of Florida is 30 seconds away from crashing into the state. Remember, the Tidal wave is on every section of Florida that has water on the edge. It is about to hit Florida from each end. Which hero can prevent this without one life being lost? The hero is in the middle of the state.

Wonder Woman
Magneto
Superman
Thor
Martian Manhunter
Silver Surfer

Who succeeds and which showing are you using proving they will succeed?

mmm

Before the following issue, the person you inadvertently(?) listed as #1 would have been my #1 pick for this challenge as well ...

Note that the first 4 scans are just reference information for the issue this appears in and a bonus for fans.

Lol how does that help? It's a tidal wave on ALL sides of Florida....

Moreover,the jet is now inert, stuck in it's jet form...

zopzop
Surfer
Superman
Thor

Surfer has planetary scale matter manipulation and could conjure up a protective dome if he wanted too. Thor could summon a super storm to rebuff the wave. Superman is Superman and he'll pull some MacGyver sh|t like he does routinely on panel.

The rest stand no chance.

Odinson could probably port a large enough portion of the water that diminishes the wave into non life threatening levels.

Too bad I didn't write "BEFORE the following issue", then, hey?


Oh, wait.

I did.


Also, that "inert jet", when it was active, was able to fit in either a bowl or a compact the size of a woman's makeup mirror.
Meaning our speedy Wonder Woman, who has helped evacuate cities in a matter of seconds, can repeat the trick shown. Florida is a peninsula; worst case scenario should require perhaps 3 such sonic booms?

With neither herself nor the plane PREVIOUSLY damaged, as shown here, I'm fairly confident she could pull this challenge off.

I would say Surfer directly controls the water, but either way, a task like this should be easy for him.

Great Superman/MacGuyver reference. laughing out loud

Too bad you ignored, or perhaps misunderstood my point, eh?

Florida has 1260 miles of coastline.

And it would be being hit, simultaneously. For three such booms as you assert, you'd have to show each boom capable of blocking nearly 400 mile wide, 2000 foot high waves. And then repeat it. Three tines.

So how does your scan help?

As for my choices, Surfer or Thor for me. Transmute the water into harmless gas, or BFr it, or summon winds to push it back, whatever.

cdtm
Can't Magneto affect a pretty wide range?

I've heard planetary at his best, but even continental would be enough.

A shield? Or somehow setting up a wall around the place?

Could he affect the sea water diectly, somehow?

Genii96
Surfer
Thor
Superman
Magneto

"Id"
Superman punches the tidal wave.

Magnon
Superman can. And he's probably the only one.

Thor cannot; he and Bill needed the help of Skuttlebutt to stop a far smaller wave.

This is why I said include on panel showings. Please provide proof that each can succeed in completely the task.

cdtm
And what would you accept as "proof". Be specific.

Here you go :

Surfer transmuted about half of the Enslaver mother ship into an armada of ships. How big was the Enslaver mother ship? It dwarfed the planet Earth. So if Surfer is capable of transmuting something that size into MULTIPLE complex objects (spaceships), imagine how easily he can get rid of that wave?

Enjoy.

Regarding the other two. Superman is Superman and he'll bullsh|t something into a victory. Thor has planetary level atmospheric control. He'll create a state sized storm to rebuff the waves.

So you only have something for Surfer. Gotcha.

@SSJG...

Do you have scans proving this?

cdtm
Superman can simply freeze the wave.

What are you talking about? There's like a million ways for Superman to stop a tidal wave.

Look up Adventures of Superman 431 "They call him Doctor Stratos" if you need an example of Supes actually stopping a wave. He simply digs a moat around Parlimemt, and channels the water away from the building. No reason that won't work for your little scenario.

He can freeze and circle the entire state without a person getting killed? What scene makes you believe he can do this?

Uhh, because he has super speed? You've seen the scans.

Jane Thor did something similar when she fought against the Shiar deities.

Show me the scan that makes you think this.

cdtm
Sure, lets post another feat you can forget about and ask for again later.

"Days and nights passing outside the distortion field is decreasing! I'm catching up to real time!"

Anyone else would have been a statue under a distortion effect so strong, days and nights were passing in moments. With that kind of speed, beating this stupid scenerio is no sweat.

Those ships were created from the jettisoned pods. Not the half of the ship.

Point taken.

But then we also have this :

Surfer can do it.

mmm

When Wild One was creating a tidal wave and setting off some volcanoes, Surfer was assigned on volcano duty (he exhausted himself sealing some volcanoes) and Namor stopped the tidal wave.

Uh, him doing the same thing on a smaller scale in Injustice?

He froze a tidal wave and threw it out of Metropolis. This is a severely undersold Superman that was written to be much weaker than most incantations.

The average Superman, like PC, Silver Age, or All-star, could easily fly the perimeter of Florida in an instant, while using freeze breath. Then toss it to the North pole, or outer space FFS.

This would be a piece of cake for Superman. Stop being difficult, Carver. mad

I don't think Surfer was at 100% because earlier they used a magic dagger to stab him and use his blood to unleash the Wild One.

You just gave me an idea for a VS thread too. wink

That was in previous issue and there was no indication that he was still weakened.
