"Deems himself untouchable" is a nice way of saying that the Cyborg incident was a case of the writer not acknowledging or having no previous knowledge of Black Racer's powers. 🙂

Well then where's it been established that he's "untouchable"? Do you seriously mean that pretty much NO ONE has ever hurt the BR?

Goob, it's like trying to hit an idea or a concept.

Why because he's the "God" of Death? Should we take that same liberty with Pluto, Hela, Walker, etc.? Now if he's only been tagged successfully by a couple of times that's one thing(as it could easily be attributed to bad writing), but if he's been tagged more than that and your case is based off of how powerful Cyborg is in comparison with how powerful BR is SUPPOSED to be then I have to disagree as that falls under the heading of "low showing" IMO.

He has no corporeal form. He's an avatar of death, not a god.

So how many people have tagged him to your knowledge?

To my knowledge that's the only time I've seen Racer tagged like that.

What do you mean "like that"?

Black Racer can be hurt, you're just making stuff up now.

I've never seen him touched or affected by anything outside of the Source who turned him into what he is.

It's in the exact same comic, moron. 😬

Still happened, bub. Getting hurt twice in the same comic. Disgraceful. Guess Black Racer isn't all that is he?

Your argument is laughable. 🙂

Wow, cool. BR sounds like a character I should check out. Thanks for the info 🙂 .

That's like claiming Surfer isn't all that he is IF he got in a figure 4 leg lock by Black Panther after the arm incident in the same comic book.

Or how about the time Supes was manhandled by Venom more than once in that laughable crossover.

It is still the same writter isn't it?

Since I don't know much about BR I do not claim he beats Surfer or anything, but I just found that statement a bit odd.

Hey, i'm not the one who's disregarding all his low showings.

Would make sense but those guys all have showings that make those instances ridiculous, no one in this thread has shown Black Racer doing anything to impressive.

Does anyone know of any BR appearances other than these?
