A lot of people survived accidents where if something was just inches away, they could've died. Doesn't take away from what happened. And again, Warlock said it was luck, not Surfer. They was obviously hit by the attack, and survived.

So high-end outliers count if it is to show durability. Very interesting. Very interesting indeed.Also, Abhi was asking for feats, yes, but I don't think he wants random feats that are unusable. But since you think high end outliers count IF it is for durabilty, excellent.
This is a durability thread and ABHI asked me for a Surfer ft that piss on Superman showings, so I found one.

i'll concede one point--it's clearly debateable. wherever they are, whatever we call that space, it's possible some distortion blocked it and as it impacts CLEARLY away from him that seems perfectly possible but it's also possible it hit him and he moved back i guess. i mean that would be a terrible way of showing it and makes no sense but i guess it's possible *shrug*

How do you interpret "Yes..sheer luck *we*...survived"?
Warlock speaking on Surfers behalf. If it was said by Surfer, then it would hold some weight. What we do know is, they were hit by the attack. Surfer and Warlock was in positions that proves this. The attack got bigger engulfing them, and we see them alive but fatigued.

Don't even know why you are going down this avenue, Abhi.Carver has said before that he does not use high end feats for his characters. So simply ask him if the showing he sent for Surfer is an average for him. Plain and simple.
Watch him squirm. There is no need to be on the defensive - no matter what you posted, you'd get attacked. The real question is why do you have to match a showing that the poster - Carver9 - does not even believe is usable in a forum fight.
Leo's right, it's at least possible that the blast continued despite appearing to explode away from him. But by the same token it's at least equally possible (although I would argue much more likely) that he didn't take any sort of "direct blast" between panels.
If you can't concede that the feat is ambiguous, then it just makes Superman look bad. Which is dumb because he's not short on great durability feats.

Some unrelated thoughts.
Even though modern comics don't treat the readers as 6-7 year old kids, so rarely use a bunch of text to explain something clearly is shown on panel
But occasionally, the art simply isn't that good/clear, and I often hope that comics can sometimes go back to the Golden/Silver Age style, using words to avoid confusion when this happens
Here the art isn't clear and the words don't clarify.

But it's neither here nor there as you won't use it.
If someone made a...I dunno, Gorgon Vs Batman thread (this came into my head completely apropos of nothing), and I said Batman's durability feats piss all over Gorgon's....can I use his WW showing?
And if I then said Batman's speed feats piss all over Gorgon's, can I use him dodging HV after it's fired? Let me know.

If it's a thread that meant to showcase their durability fts and I asked you to tell me Batman best durability ft and you post him withstand a punch from Superman and Wonder Woman, how TF can I argue against that? I literally asked for it.

Yep, Warlock was lucky. Surfer never mentioned such things.

Where were they hit by the attack? Sheer luck means they were not hit and somehow the blast wave missed them.
This was never said. He said they are lucky to SURVIVE the attack. Also, Surfer was shown to be far more powerful than Warlock in the same issue. So again, him speaking for Surfer holds no weight.
