Best all around Marvel speedster...

This is a contest to determine Marvels best *all around* speedster. Not the fastest in travel speed and the like. Just flat out all around effectiveness in battle be it running, flying, in space or on land.

To avoid the type of conjecture commonly associated with super speed I'm asking for speed feats that are truly super speed based, so no Martial Artists please. Yes we know that Wolverine, Iron Fist etc are fast. But they aren't considered speedsters by any stretch.

For the sake of clarity, please do try and avoid hyperbole based feats and also make sure to try and post feats that are as non ambiguous as possible.

The criteria is simple. The nominee must have legitimate speed feats in a variety of situations, i.e. in open space, in tight quarters, etc. They have to be reflexive- preferably combat speed feats.

I'll provide a few examples of what I'm talking about.

Close quarters combat speed:

Throwing projectiles at opponents:

You know what's coming, but are you fast enough to stop it?

Going somewhere with that?

Ok you get what I'm talking about. So who's the best all around speedster in Marvel?

Glads
Silver Surfer
Quicksilver
Makkari
Hermes
Northstar
Aurora
The Runner

If I forgotten anyone, please feel free to mention them.

The Runner. Definitely.

Do I REALLY have to post Glads feats? I have done them so many times its crazy. I have shown him blitz 3 times at the speed of light. I have shown him blitz the entire xmen including the shiar before they can react. I have shown him moving, talking, and building objects at hyper speeds. I have shown him punching at nano seconds. Blitzing Masterson at super speeds. Moving his hands in a blur... catching alien sniper bullets... rapping Sam in a steel pole in less than a second.

When it comes to speed, Gladiator is the head moncho in Marvel and would be top notch in DC.

Gladiator isn't the top dog in marvel the runner is clearly portrayed as the fastest.

Like I said... no one minus Flash has comparable feats.

I agree, Sentry is good as well.

Quicksilver, obviously.

In character, yes. I don't debate in the fashion of someone being untouchable if they have been getting slapped around their entire career but that doesn't change the fact that Glads is much faster and that doesn't change the fact that I could see Runner trying to blitz Gladiator ending with Glads grabbing his a** out of thin air by the neck surprising Runner... same for Flash.

I have seen to many people say that "they didn't even see Gladiator move" and he was already on top of them with a hay maker and he was at least a couple of feat/yards away. He did this to Sam, Wonderman, Masterson, Human Torch, and Thing. They were looking right at him and he blitzed them so fast that they didn't even see him move out of his spot.

So what the Runner lacks in quantity he makes up for in quality? Because he damn sure doesn't have a lot of apperaences relative to the others.

The runner and anyone with decent speed can do this as well. I mean come on. Your examples are lackluster and it kinda shows off your ignorance about this subject.

Why is Gladiator faster again ? Based off of what could he easily just grab the runner out of the air ?

I never said runner "couldnt " do that... I wanted you to know that Runner was going to be another individual added to that list if he faced Glads.

Based on feats. Glads feats are better... like I said before, he was operating a computer for hours at Hyper Speed and let's not even think about how fast "hyper speed" is.

Like I said before... minus space flight, Glads has blitz 3 times in a environment with gravity at near light speed.

To many people do not have that luxury under their belts.

Hermes is faster than Gladiator. 😉

Nova deserves to be in the discussion. Not as fastest guy obviously, but he's got some solid combat speed feats.
