Hasn’t Superman escaped black holes which is hard to quantify given it should imply resisting infinite mass by going faster than it could pull some weird sci-fi stuff like that.
There’s also that edge of the universe feat in 60 days I believe which I don’t know how it translates but I’d imagine if it’s not greater it’s comparable.
Considering that you have to go through our Galaxy to get to asgardia which is its own galaxy and HE came from shi'ar a super galaxy with galaxies in between it and we'RE assuming our galaxy is 100k light years. . Plus asgardia which lets just say is small and his own galaxy which is bigger than ours. Because shi'ar space is bigger than ours. At minimum two large galaxies and a couple small galaxies. Cause multiple galaxies I'm low balling hang inbetween.
Anyways, I wanna do some math for you, since you love real world figures.
Just for you, I went and found the smallest galaxy on record.
That would be Segue 2, about 221.79 light years across.
Gladiator crossed "multiple" galaxies, so let's lowball again and say 3.
3 × 221.79 = 665.37 light years.
We'll lowball again and say these galaxies were back to back with no gaps.
He traveled this distance in the time it took Heimdall to blink.
Average blink is 300-400 milliseconds. So, he moved 665.37 in about a 3rd of a second.
665.37 × 3 = 1996.11 lightyears in a second.
1996.11 × 3600 = 7,185,996 lightyear an hour.
I had to find a lightyear to mile calculator for this part, but I found that
7,185,196 lightyears is 42,243,778,417,195,910,000 miles.. so, 42.2 quintillion mph.
The speed of light is only 670,616,629 mph.
42,243,778,417,195,910,000 ÷ 670,616,629 = 62992440972.1, so
62,992,440,972, so if we lowball Gladiator TO THE UTMOST then you are correct, he was only moving at 63 billion times the speed of light.
But the average galaxy is about 450 times larger than our starting measurement of Segue 2 at ~222 lightyears.
So... I'm gonna just say **** the math and multiply the end result by 450.
62,992,440,972 x 450 = 2.8346598×10¹³, or 28,346,598,000,000 times the speed of light, so at minimum 30 times faster than Superman's feat.
and that's also assuming that every galaxy mashed up back to back, with no space in between, and IGNORING that, solar distances in the Shiar Empire are far larger than ours, same for their galaxies.
...No, it's not comparable, because they're two complete different feats. Pure travel speed versus super speed, but for the fact that Superman was talking to someone else, in real time, I can absolutely confirm that Gladiator was moving much faster.
The text never said Gladiator actually crossed a galaxy. In the blink of an eye or otherwise.
It's just saying he's really really fast. You can find similar statements for all characters in comics, like Thor being called "As fast as the Lightning he commands", which he most definitely is not.
