Seriously.

Well for starters, the fact that Superman had absolutely no clue Diana was right behind him (even when he shifted into "super hearing mode" πŸ™„ πŸ˜‚ ) which allowed her to able to get in a sneak attack was hilarious. Anybody sneaking up on Superman is horrible writing.

Also, during that comic, Superman fights off the league and owns Black Rock, but Blunder Woman gives him a good fight when he's pissed off? Wtf?

etc.

There's quite a bit wrong with it.

If Superman were to be faster than Flash, what reason is there for Flash to even exist?

Kinetic energy manipulation? Speed force dump?

But I get what you mean.

most of the sacrifice arc to me was pushing it to be honest...

There's something wrong with just about every comic book fight if you nitpick it like that. Superman beating John Stewart with ice breath ftl.

All of his fancy speedforce tricks

Those tricks rely on his speed. You'd basically have a hero who can BFR people.

You don't have to be a stickler for details to know that anybody sneaking up on Superman when they're right behind him is stupid.

Except for Batman? 😬.

Did I ever say that it wasn't stupid?

No, but you support it on the fact that 'it happened.'

You see, there's a difference between Batman sneaking up on Superman and Thor being outgunned in combat speed by street levelers. The former happened one time, whereas the latter happened many, many times. πŸ™‚

Also, the former is illogical, whereas the latter is consistent with how Thor's speed is normally portrayed.

Loeb's anus writing should be taken with a grain of salt in the first place, Val (in reference to your John/Superman statement).

Point is, that fight with Diana was garbage.

Where did I mention Thor?

I was saying that you think it's bullshit that Diana sneaks up on Superman in spite of it happening, but think it's all fine and dandy for Batman to do so, because it happened.

Never mind.

Huh? I flat out said Batman sneaking up on Superman was shit. Where did I say otherwise?

Every time you've ever brought it up and defended it in the past? 😬.

I've never tried to defend that. Ever.

You must be thinking of someone else.

Loeb isn't the only guy writing silly shit. Pretty much every writer does it. There's way worse stuff out there than Sacrifice.

i don't think anyone would dispute that... i personally just think they under-represented superman big time in that arc...

And that doesn't change the fact that I still think the Sacrifice fight was shit. Diana should not have been able to tame a pissed off Superman.
