That was the whole article about how Old-Wizard justified ranking Thor as more powerful than Supes.. Im just gna copy the "speed factor" portion below. It gives references to comics, but no scans im afraid. Although I do have the comic where he whirls his hammer twice the speed of light, but its black and white so doesnt scan well:

"2 . Super Speed

This is Superman’s one true advantage in this fight. Superman is fast. We’re talking warp speed fast. We’re talking once around the entire planet and back before you can blink fast. You could easily make the argument that Thor would be lucky if he even saw Superman before he got pounded. But is Thor as slow as everyone seems to think? Unknown to many DC fanboys Thor can throw his hammer at the speed of light (See Thor#140, Thor#274). He can also swing it at TWICE the speed of light (Journey Into Mystery#102). In Thor -#393- it’s established that the speed of Thor’s hammer TRANSCENDS both TIME & SPACE. In addition Thor can appear anywhere across the Universe or other dimensions in just seconds (see- FF#339, and Thor#166). And, most importantly, Thor could, visually, detect objects that move at fantastic speeds (this happened when Thor was the target of artillery fire- see Invaders#33- and Avengers-#281- when he saw the speedy Hermes. And yes, I do need a life). Now if we accept that Superman can move at 99% of the speed of light, and that Thor can swing his hammer at twice the speed of light, it stands to reason that big blue is in some trouble. It’s true that Thor doesn’t use his super speed abilities often, but how many times have you seen Superman not use his super speed when he should have?"

Thats actually not a bad argument. I've been thinking especially about that incident with Hermes does anybody know how many other heroes didn't see Hermes?

Lol @ the last few pages.

Superman can easily fight at Lightspeed

Isn't it funny how your two favorite singers, Justine and Gagaman can pass off for the opposite gender than the one they officially are?

It is, brandoline.

Next time you get caught 'playing with' your nephew, don't PM me about it Philophile.

People throw the magic argument around way to often with Superman. Generally when someones powers come from magic there is no difference than if those abilities were generated by natural means. For example a lightning bolt from Thor would have the same effect as a bolt from a normal thunderstorm. (Of course Thor can generate far more powerful bolts) Where his weakness truly lies is more on the avenue of sorcery (for example if a cast a spell to put Superman to sleep he will has no special resistance) There are things that fall somewhere in between depending how the magic works (like Captain Marvels lighting bolt) But most of Thor's powers are generated by magic but no different than any another character whose powers were generated by physics when fighting Superman. However if Thor still has the Odinforce Thor can increase his abilities far beyond what Supes faced in JLA/Avengers plus it can be used as true magic. (Though why Thor can still be on the Avengers if he is a Skyfather bothers me) Anyways as long as current Thor still has the Odinforce I have to give it to him. Without it I like Superman better so he wins =0

Thor wins with or without Odin Force as long as he goes all out. Magical attacks do hurt Supes more than non-magical based attacks, but would be especially dangerous when he's already fighting someone in his league.

And as Iv said countless times the God Blast would kill Supes. Thor never used it against Supes in JLA/Avengers because he wasn't going for the kill. Thor also didn't absorb and deflect back Supes heat vision for some strange reason.. AHEM-- PIS!!!

Superman win, if he stops holding back from the start Thors going to be in dreamland early.

Superman

Thor. As of now, it definitely seems that Thor is far more willing and likely to crank things up before Kal will. He'll probably call Kal a bastard too.

Current Thor > Current Supes.

Current Thor wins.

Current Thor just wrecked Surfer, smashed Galactus's helmet so hard it shattered, and

Spoiler:
Killed Angrir, the super amped Ben Grimm who trashed Red Hulk.
Current Thor is a jerk who is literally killing people. Of course, he wouldn't beat Superman in a straight brick contest, he'd have to use some powers. But he would, this Thor is ruthless.

Sounds like this Thor run is a good candidate for being Hamas'd (Or whatever that Batman run was, that was so far out of character some comic book boards outright banned using his entire run in a debate..)
