http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mAH_6V5h4cif so, it would mean that ozy was able to calculate precisely where the bullet would strike, as well as take the necessary measures to protect himself [ie. moving his hands over that particular area] - based, more or less, on a mathematical equation that the trajectory a bullet follows once a given person fires a gun, standing at a given point = a statistically predictable element.
taking into consideration the very nature of ozy's character, it makes sense that he would treat any potential battle, including every possible 'variable' that might be brought to the table [ie. weapons,] as nothing more than *solvable* equations. imo, at least.
sure, he may have just been 'that fast', but meh.... theorizing is more fun. 😛
And yes. Equilibrium was an awesome flick. 👆

it's not that time doesn't pass in the phantom zone, it's more that time has no meaning, so you become immortal while inside. you can float around, communicate and whatnot, but you can't age or become corporeal unless you go to that prison place...
STRANGE #1 (of 4)
Written by MARK WAID
Penciled by EMMA RIOS
Cover by TOMM COKER
No longer Sorcerer Supreme of the Marvel Universe, Stephen Strange must discover a new path to fulfillment and enlightenment. Unfortunately, that path leads through a bizarre, terrifying gauntlet of magical menaces--and if the former Master of the Mystic Arts is going to survive the journey, he'll need some assistance--in the form of a brand-new student!
32 PGS./Rated T+ ...$3.99
As someone who as read every single Doctor Strange comic ever, and more or less everything Mark Waid has ever written, I kind of just came in my pants when I read this.

he doesn't have any super powers so he's not "faster than a speeding bullet"
and your theory sounds about right, that's pretty much exactly what i thought too 😄
