Superman (modern) vs Magneto

I actually question his ability to do it at all against Magneto. The closest most impressive quantified blitz from Supes just shows him going in excess of the speed of sound, but I'm pretty sure that Magneto's reactions are superior to that. I mean it's theoretically possible that Supes has sufficient speed to blitz Magneto, but there's nothing concrete to suggest that he could blitz someone who can track Captain Marvel while she's moving at lightspeed.

Supes combat speed allowed him to travel at 4 different points of the world in the time it took to finish a sentence, he also managed to bullrush on Zod and parasite before they could react and even got a good shot in at Amazo while he was in his line of sight. Under forum rules with every fighting in peak form, why wouldn't supes simply ultalize a blitz lol. There really isn't anything mag could do even if he was fighting at his best...trully the fanboys and bias have gotten out of hand.

Watch out, he'll bullrush you.

Nah, u ****ers just have this real wonky line of logic. Suddenly supes doesn't have speed and mag can mess up his bio-aura......

Dude, I make King Hyperion look sane. Bring it.

Not combat speed by your definition. Surfer's searched the surface of Earth before Strange could finish a second and other planets in the span of a heartbeat and you always say it doesn't qualify as combat speed.

Again, no more combat speed by your definition than things you continuously dismiss from Surfer.

Wasnt' mag pierced by logan...whom wasn't going at light speed by the way. Unlike Supes, Mag doesn't have LS reflex.

Superman doesn't have light speed reflexes either.

Surfer he could, he could pull the energy out of him or deflect it away like Polaris did.

Which didn't defeat Superman at all. In fact, as later pointed out to Lois, Superman was just trying to talk Dr. Polaris out of his delirious state and could have easily crushed Dr. P anytime he wanted.

Wait so Supes wasn't powerless when Dr. Light bent the light away?

No.

Ok what issue did it happen in again, because from what I remember Supes was pretty weak. Was he faking it or something and if so, what issue did they say it was an act?

It was during the Strange Attractors arc. Lois asked Superman why he didn't take Polaris out quickly (like she knew he could) rather than dealing with all his bullshit. He said it was because Polaris is a sick man and that he knows how hard it is to maintain even one identity and how he wanted to give him at least a chance, blah blah blah.

If you notice during the fight, Superman was never really in any danger of being hurt. The closest Polaris came to that was blinding him temporarily. Apart from that, every offensive maneuver Dr. P threw at him was countered or powered through. At any point he could've flicked Neal's head off.

That's why I have trouble giving Magneto the win over Superman. Offensively, he's not strong enough to really harm Superman.

Both.

Also, I have the fight documented in my Dr. Polaris respect thread. You'll notice that Superman wasn't actually trying to fight Neal or beat him up. He was simply combating the symptoms of his power. That won't be happening here.

Supes blitz 10/10 FTW.

And Lois didn't say that Supes could have taken him down anytime he wanted, she asked why Supes didn't take Polaris down when he first had the chance, big difference there.
