I'll dare say Jonn thinks faster than he moves and since him Phasing is a mental act he should be able to pull it off before supes gets to him or he could just lose all bodily control and let supes hit him,if he has relaxed his body would be like slush and all the strength and speed in the world won't matter.Then he can phase.
Supes turning invisible and intangible doesn't matter because no way in hell would Jonn try to slug it with Superman c'mon,He's F***ing Superman.Jonn's telepathy can put Superman down,Maxwell lord did it(and don't say it took him years,he has known Superman that long but it was never stated it took him years) Protex Did it (I know Supes overcame it but it took him two issues,more then enough to count as a win) Also PLZ don't bring up Despero as Supes only held out for one panel each time and was saved by others,hell you can see the immense strain on Supes face.
Superman has proven to have superior reflexes (many times) AND superior combat speed than J'onn. It's an advantage that could definitely be exploited if they were to fight. Recently, the green martians have been taken out with a few simple lasers. This leads me to believe that J'onn wouldn't be digging Superman's heat vision too much.
And yet, it DID take Max Lord 10 years to mentally control Superman. He had to pretend to be a friend all that time in order to penetrate his defenses.
Superman has punked Protex even without the use of his heat vision (just to make it fair).
That's the same Despero that made J'onn his b*tch with a telepathic assault.
Superman could also use T-Vo as a telepathic inhibitor against J'onn. Or he could take him to his astral playground and pwn the shit out of him. It's worked on Blaze (magical skyfather) instantly.
Bottom line; if Superman gets his hands on J'onn with his superior speed and strength, J'onn's going down.

Right but its an advantage that he can't exploit,because Jonn would fold like putty and not be harmed or he would be intangible.Also in JLA Justice for all Amazo almost cuts Jonns arm off using Supes Heat vision Do you know what Jonn says When Supes asks if he's OK?"Nothing a little concentration Won't fix"Basically Jonn isn't comcerned because he can heal,we both know how quick Jonn heals.
FYI those energy beams that killed Roh'Kar are a recreation of a Martian Psionic Blast,not heat Vision in any way
Where does it say it took him years?Scans,Isuue NO# just because he knew him for years doesn't mean he was doing it for years.Also When has Maxwell lord Been as strong a Telepath as Jonn?
Exactly and Protex was winning until Supes Dragged him down to the center of the earth and the heat and flames there weakened him,so basically supes can't beat a white martian in a "fair" fight
Despero and Jonn were Fighting for Two issues and were in Telepath Contact the whole time,Despero was trying to Dampen Jonns Jonn still Reached Aquaman,Not to mention Despero himself states Jonn and Aquaman were weakened.Jonns linear view would most likely mean he could see through any tricks of T-Vo.
sooooo every fight that doesn't show the characters showing "any measure of actual superspeed" means they're not using it at all. Hum I guess I just thought that if the two characters had super speed they would use it in a fight. When two people who are superfast are fighting it's just kinda assumed that they are fighting with there powers.
everything is a Sh!t fight when a person who is bias is looking at it and has something against one of the characters.
I know he's got a healing factor that's second to none, but he can indeed be hurt and/or knocked out. He has before in the past. Even in altercations with Superman before, he's been beaten.
Phasing is great... if he is actually given the opportunity. J'onn's speed is a tortoise's pace compared to Superman. His TRAVELLING speed has been clocked out at what? Mach 100? Definitely not as fast as Superman. Superman would be giving J'onn many punches that he WOULD be fealing in his corporeal form. If he does phase after that, then it wouldn't be after suffering through many shots from Superman. Superman could use his freeze breath to keep J'onn in his corporeal form while beating him to death.
He's used his freeze breath to contain the likes of Bizarro before.
I'm not even saying Max Lord is as strong of a telepath as J'onn, but it was stated that it took him years to accomplish said feat. Superman's defenses would be enough to get him through the fight w/o his brain being on fire.
It's not exactly like Protex was playing it fair either. Before that battle even started, Superman was chained up and exposed to kryptonite radiation.
And yeah, actually Superman has pwned bunches of white martians before (terror incognita).
I think you forgot to mention the fact that in Virtue and Vice, Despero mentally raped J'onn like there was no tomorrow.
Linear view doesn't mean shit to T-Vo. He doesn't even have to use it for reality altering. He can use it to create constructs, or use it to take damage without suffering any ill effects. He can use it to basically do whatever the hell he wants. And if universal abstracts, and magical skyfathers, and Eradicator have felt the effects, my guess would be that J'onn wouldn't exactly have an easy time with it.

I hate t-vo with everything within me. It should be as laughable as wolverine stabbing into thanos with the infinity gauntlet. Isn't the new superman writter not even going to have it in his run? Gosh why don't they just give supes every power ever. I mean they almost have I can't wait tell he get's unbreakable claws that are sharper and more duraible then wolverine's.
Yeh it was a yar ago but meh.I'm not sure if that was supposed to make it sound like an unreasonable assumption. Except the fight wasn't between two characters with superspeed. It was a fight between one character with superspeed not using it and Apocalypse.
Can't Apocalypse augment his strength? Can't Apocalypse augment his speed? I heard but i am not sure this is true but at one point in time Apocalypse could move just as fast as Quicksilver.
