And people think Surfer can beat Superman?

Started by AcousticDoc21 pages

So how come they attacked surfer again instead of simply having ben or johnny ask him for information?

He also tumbles like a girlie-man everytime his board is knocked out from under him.

Hey, no one's perfect.

Probably uses less energy for him to just take the hit instead of dodging. Kinda like a toddler throwing a tennis ball at you while you are working at your desk.

Although I haven't seen anyone mention this, IMO it's a bit of a stretch too (albeit, a smaller one) that Storm and Torch had as much effect on the Surfer as they did.

They probably all went home that night going "WTF were we thinking!"

very true, no one in that fight has the power to hurt him

The problem with uberduper characters (Surfer, Thor, Superman, etc) is that they are so powerful, PIS is virtually inevitable. This way their less-powerful opponents can make some kind of decent showing.

As someone once said, if Flash was written to full potential, Flash comics would be three panels long.

Black power. thumbup1

I really thought I would enjoy poking fun at this hammerlock thing but it's only been like a day and I'm already sick of seeing joke threads and posts about it.

I don't see how BP could move or react fast enough to leap onto Surfer's board that can go millions of times the speed of light.

OOOOOOOOOO shit I forgot it was that fast... Just bad...

am I the only one who wanted to see him take off his arm?

It still boggles my mind that a writer could write that with a straight face. I mean, for chrissakes, AT LEAST INVENT A PLOT DEVICE...give BP some mystical powerup or tech upgrade that amplified his strength or give BP some special radiation that weakened the Surfer...something to explain away the utter ridiculousness of that situation.

it looks like someone is jonesing for the arm to get torn off

Pacisfist doesn't have much to do with it.

He was weakened when this happened.
Also, not to mention, that that scene is pis.

You can't pull out a scan, and downgrade Surfer's entire character.

Unless Storm's lightning>>>>the inside of a sun, then Storm shouldn't be touching him.

Storms lightning > the phoenix force (happened on panel)

It was a rear naked choke, none of you comic book nerds know how insanely impossible it is to get out of that move. If someone secures it in a mixed martial arts fights then its over. Use some logic.

Oh wait it was the Black Panther putting it on the Surfer...nvm...

Not really because you can headbutt their nose causing them to loose their grip or you take your off hand and hit them hard in not so nice a place. That causes them to let go quickly 😬

But yeah it was BP putting it on SS
