You should really separate fighting speed and flight speed.

yeah, that's prolly more accurate. the question then becomes is thor's combat speed enough to allow him to keep up with supes and not get blitzed to death . . .?

(damn this is all terribly familiar -- but this has always been my favourite thread! most of the discussion IS discussion and not flaming and occasionally there is even NEW material and arguments brought into this thread!)

I think he can he has faced Glads where Glads was stated as using his speed. So I don't think Thor will be overwhelmed.

How about you Leo whats your take on the Thor Suoperman Speed issue?

hmm, what day of the week is it . . .?

in all honesty, i spent a long time trying to figure it out, and never came up with a definite answer. i think the speed advantage is -- while not overwhelming -- enough of an advantage to certainly help supes out, while supes vulnerability to magic is something that has been blown out-of-proportion by some in the thread.

by my last count, i think i had supes like 5.5/10. feats and abilities make it damn near impossible to conlude either would beat the other for a big majority.

Thanks Leon. To be honest, a good insight by someone who reads both comics on a good basis is what the thread needed, like when Wally West closed the deal on Flash vs Thor and Supes

Something like that. Doesn't he refresh by going into the sun, or am I thinking of another character?

It's called matter manipulation. Kitty once phased his body making him one with concrete. To get out he used matter manipulation, easily getting out and deflecting a telepathic assault from Phoenix soon after.

I agree Supes has an advantage it is just hard to gauge how big it is.

His magical weakness is blown out of proportion but Thor's exotic powers aren't

I had the reverse going I was 5.5/10 for Thor

Maybe it just depends how I'm writing it but it is going to be a good fight trust me.

I would still like to point out that while Superman has never fought or even speedblitzed at light speed, Thor has actually shown the ability to swing Mjolnir at light speeds.

And for those who continually say Surfer never used speed against Thor, your wrong. In their first fight Surfer was some what shocked and surprised that Mjolnir was "keeping" up with him.

true, but in that saem fight, ss showed the ability to DODGE mjollnir. and ss really does lack combat speed feats of the type supes has LOADS of.

I'm already planning it out in my head. I've got the setting and the basic outline of how the fight is going to be and end.

Of course for me the hardest part is always coming up with the begining

yeah, there has to be a good reason why these two would fight...

Surfer has actually shown the ability to think and react at light speeds, while Superman has not.

Yes Superman does have loads of impressive speed feats, but his combat feats have never reached ftl.

Oh there is no better reason then that they simply hate eachother 😱

Thor easily reacting to Surfer at high speeds...
