time slowing isn't a metaphor, it's a statement of fact, in order to move and react quickly you must be able to perceive the world slower, much like captain america. You're discounting the narrator to prove your point being that Blade is barely superhuman so he can't be that fast. Enough of your bias.As for the topic at hand, what have Batman and Wolverine done with a sword?
You are right it wasn't a metaphor, but it was a hyperbole. It's a poem people, except it an move on.

A poem that recounted the events that transpired in an extravagant and exaggerated manor. It wasn't meant to be taken literally.
Originally posted by TrackzIt's not hyperbole if the comic actually shows what's going on. Kinda like this:

Yeah, that's hyperbole. The whole point is to exaggerate his speed for effect and to create a stronger impression with in narrative. Did he move fast? Yes... that's why the hyperbole was used in the first place, but he didn't move as fast as the narration implicates. Did you guys not have a mandatory poetry unit once a year in high school? What is the American curriculum like? Why am I explaining poetic devices to you?

Originally posted by srankmissingninHave scans of this Nighting drawn in a blur? I sure hope it's not like the refridgerator feat. After images are one thing but a blur is another. After images don't mean much sometimes they just show the path the character has taken instead of drawning 5 panels they can do one.
Why is Nightwing drawn like a blur in a dozen places at once in a single panel? Does he slow down time too?Sheesh

Now that I've explained the use of literary devices in poetry to you I'm going to have to explain to you methods artists use to depicted motion in sequential story telling? Keep this up and you'll need to start righting me a pay check.
