Limited reality warping isn't much different from magic. Magic doesn't automatically make for a Herald.

No.

And any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Isn't Doom a herald?

Juggling the cosmos seems kind of impressive. Although I think the Genie was more powerful before it was freed.

classic asgard (and other god realms) are impossible to get to without magic.

going from the asgard country to hel takes nine earth days no matter what mode of transport nor level of speed one can attain, but hela --through magic can shorten the time it takes to travel between realms.

-tech can't summon nor envoke the presence and/or power od magical beings

-reverse specific spells on victims

-etc

tech can't do any of that

A sufficiently powerful interdimensional teleporter says you're wrong. That covers the first three lines of your post.

You'd have to name the specific spell for me to tell you the technology that says you're wrong.

-etc

Tech can do the things you say.

I think you're underestimating the power of science. Particularly comic science.

On a completely unrelated note:

I just watched the "Avatar Day" episode of The Last Airbender and, after watching it, I have to agree that Kyoshi did push the island away using air bending only. This was after using earth bending to break the land mass away from the mainland and then using I suppose fire/earth bending to cause a flow of lava in the crevice she'd created to annex the land. She then used air bending alone to push the portion of land she'd separated, whicb became Kyoshi Island, away from the mainland. Pushing a large land mass with wind is pretty impressive.

^ dunno why this was in doubt... as if i would lie 😖hifty:.

Yep, in comics tech resurrects, restores the past and freaking makes you meet god.

A Boom Tube (tech) could definitely make it to Asgard in a snap.

not counting ignorant portrayals, what i said was solid.

thor had to go the nine days and he can teleport his as off

not all my friend

most of the spells strange employs require extradimensional magical energy outside of the 616 dimension pulled from mystical beings he has a pact with, and gaining it requires an oath/spell

new gods are dieties are they not?

and it's a little ironic that it takes a boomtube to get to the fourth world, which magic can't accomplish (iirc)

It's still tech so my point stands.

Supergirl once flew to Apokolips (somehow) but since she didn't use a Boom Tube she encountered the New Gods in their true sizes.

whatever happened to the source wall and the source being in between all those universal spheres?

or just a technology capable of tapping into that energy.

But anyway. The effects of an aging spell can be countered with something that we saw in Star trek on at least two occasions where characters were deaged via the transporter. And reaged in one of the cases.

Star trek has a weath of examples of "Magical tech" capable of performing a great number of things magic can do. Materialization, transportation. Capable of an armegeddon like spell destroying a planet by burning off the atmosphere.

We have flame throwers that can act as a "burning hands spell" Chemical throwers can mimic acid and Ice spells. You've got time machines.

You have micro cameras for scrying cell phones can mimic sending spells.

Those are examples I can think of and what I meant by being more specific with specific spells.

Doesn't change the fact that boom tubes are tech.

Tech that any human can use.

made from a divine source, that much should go without saying

Okay?

Oh yes let me fish out the scan where Metron states that Boomtubes run on God juice, magic beans, and fairy farts. 🙄
