Imagine what he could do with Drax fingers 😉.

Some of Superman's magic resistance feats would make many of the people considered in his 'weight class' proud, while some of them would make them feel ashamed. It's different interpretations of Superman's vulnerability to magic and on any given day he could simply just plow through it and put a beatdown on his enemy or fall down to a vampire.

Vampire teeth can definitely pierce Supes' flesh.
Its been stated that piercing damage is better than blunt force damage, when it comes to him.
Hence him taking Thor's hammer/ Diana's fists before whacking back.
I remember reading though that Supes' 3 weaknesses were-
Magic
Vampires
Kryptonite

Its possible that Vampires are more effective than all other Magic based enchantments. 😉

Supes is down with one call to Drac!

Who care's about skill? More power gives greater moving speed and thus more striking power. This is common sense. This leads to Thanos with faster movement speed, faster connections is his brain (increased reflexes), etc. He was amped and can't be used to support normal Thanos. To vibrate through attacks one must exceed the speed of light otherwise intangibility can't be achieved (but only IMPing). If someone can casually (while practically yawning) block an attack then they certainly can a much slower attack. But since the guy got overwhelmed by Superman's blitz that means that Superman's blitz was much faster and more attacks. You can easily catch a 30mph ball from 5ft. But can you catch one hundred 60mph balls from 2ft away? Hell no! The people shot bullets at others, where Superman went in front to save, where frozen as statues. But this doesn't matter since if someone is more than thousands of times faster then they can move a significant distance before the other can move a millimeter. This is the example of being a statue. Superman even sees lightning is super slow motion. I use this logic because I always imagine these characters fighting in REALITY and try to picture what will really happen. That is the root of this whole comic forum anyway. Superman is stronger than Marvel by a lot. Only a holding back Superman is near the same strength (slightly stronger).
By best feats Superman is far far stronger than Thanos. Prove that Thanos is stronger than Superman since you are so big on 'prove it'. Thor was just standing there is space without his hammer. SS blasted and constantly missed. Bad writing in its finest, but still SS was shown to miss.
No, it seems you don't know what power means and what reflexes/skills mean. No surprise here.

Prove one must exceed the speed of light to vibrate through attacks.

Sentry's caught a bullet before as well but he doesn't beat people to death before they can react. I guess you can't give me any solid examples.

Marvel also holds back against Superman. I guess you can't prove it.

You dismiss the writing as bad then use it against him.

To be fair, Superman isn't "weak" to magic. His invulnerability simply doesn't extend to magic as Captain Marvel's, Wonder Woman's, or Thor's would.
Some writers deem it as weakness while others state he isn't invulnerable to magic. It really depends on the writer. Jurgens for example uses the word weakness while busiek goes with the other philosophy.

I've always seen this fight as 50/50. Unlike DS Thanos doesn't have powers to negate a speedblitz, he doesn't have an energy blast that can track a target through any space and time.

So Thanos is vulnerable to Supes speed, but Thanos can entrap Supes if he makes an error. So the margin of error for Supes is razor thin, but Thanos margin of victory is also thin, because he's severely outclassed in terms of cqc and speed.

We've put up examples before but you can continue to live in a fantasy world where a guy beaten to death by Hensahw in three blows can take on Thanos who'd dominate even that Henshaw. It still isn't right.

I also would give DS the majority against Superman. What people don't see is that it's no low-feat to lose to Superman once in a while.

Thanos isn't Ds.

Dracula tried. Not really a weakness when his actual blood makes vampires explode.

Beyond the speed of light is when matter becomes intangible. Otherwise he'd just be increasing his mass. Superman doesn't have a specific power besides speed that helps him with invisibility or intangibility like most others, he uses pure speed to accomplish them.

And no, he's not, Darkseid is his superior.

Maybe I forgot something, but has it been stated that Superman can vibrate through attacks, and go intangible?

You know that doesn't prove he wins right?

Randomly spouting something that is not related to what the poster is adressing.

Quanchi is that you ?

Which is why its a question.

Cranky is that you?

A question about something that had nothing to do with what I was discussing, formulated to make it seem like I'm arguing for Superman/implying he wins based on those scans.

facepalm

Again that is why its in the form of a question because thats not what you may be doing. Done arguing?

What I was doing was quite obvious, adressing Superman being able to go intangible/vibrate through attacks.

Saying that you posted that question not because you wanted to make it seem like I'm using those scans to prove Superman>Thanos, but because you just couldn't keep up with what I'm discussing and needed clarification is hilarious though.

And yes, I'm done.

.....and you could have easily been using it to prove that Superman wins which is a pretty easy conclusion to come to which is why I asked you the question instead of actually stating thats what you were doing.

Blahblahblah. You can put any explanation you want but obvoulsy reacted the way you did because you're miserable.

I read Superman's theoretical plight.

Although you posted more than what most people do (non concrete art), considering how often it pops up.

I just don't see this as something comic book physics back up from showing to showing. I've seen Gladiator move 100 times the speed of light and I bet you could still hit him.

Addressing is with two d's by the way. So regardless of you agreeing with another poster he can go faster than the speed of light or not are you suggesting this showing or tactic is something Superman does often enough on kmc?
