TP wouldn't work.
She is powerful but if you look at her fight with Emma Frost she is quite lacking in the skill department. As for that scan from what I can remember it was something to do with the gun in the illusion that tipped off Glads that something was wrong.If not for that I don't know he would have known something was off.

Uuummm... Emma is one of the most powerful TP in Marvel and would RAPE chester in a TP fight.

I am talking about skill and training the fight make it clear the difference between the two and how far Rachel still needed to go.She certainly does not lack power but when we are talking about telepathy skill is almost as important.
BTW shame on you for trying to past of the non cannon scan earlier I would never have guessed that you would be a guy you would have to go back and check the scans everything you made a claim.

What non-canon scan?

In power? Probably?
Skill wise? Not a chance.
TP is a method MB could use to win.

huh? i was talking specifically about his vision feats. his favourite feat of mine was the vulcan feat. i loved vulcan, but glads got some respect there. beating the phoenix shard wielder was pretty cool too. contrary to your assumption i don't hate him. but i do see him as he is and what he was craeted as.
Half of what he just said wasn't true anyway, or just twisted to sound better than it was.

no doubt. it's hard to say how black would compare with emma. i'd say he has more power overall, and clearly he has some uber skill. not sure who'd win that fight. she's devious and might be able to beat him strictly via tp battle, but he has more than just tp.

yeah, i know all the instances he was talking about but bringing them all up seemed pointless. attempting to falsify scans is NOT cool though. 😬

And in comics, for whatever reason, TP tends to be faster.

Depends on who the TP is, and who the speedster is.Case in point:
What IS an established fact is that once a TP command has been given, it travels faster than light. But the reaction time of tp-ers (aka the time it takes them to form the thought of launching a TP attack, up until they launch it) <<<< speedsters.
I'm gathering up more scans like this from my (mostly DC) collections, and I will in the end make an official speedsters vs. tp-ers topic. Meanwhile though I'm re-reading the Morrison Animal Man run just cause it's awesome 🙂

Grant Morrison revival
In the late 1980s, following the slate-cleaning Crisis on Infinite Earths event, DC began employing innovative writers to revamp some of their old characters. In the period that saw Alan Moore reinvent Swamp Thing, and Neil Gaiman do the same with The Sandman, Animal Man was reimagined by Scottish writer Grant Morrison. Morrison wrote the first 26 issues of the Animal Man comic book, published between 1988 and 1990, with art by Chas Truog and Doug Hazlewood; Brian Bolland provided the covers.Although the series was initially conceived as a four-issue limited series, it was upgraded into an on-going series following strong sales. Consequently, Morrison developed several long-running plots, introducing mysteries, some of which were not explained until a year or two later. The title featured the protagonist both in and — increasingly — out of costume.
Morrison made the title character an everyman figure living in a universe populated by superheroes, aliens, and fantastic technology. Buddy's wife Ellen, his son Cliff (9 years old at the beginning of the series), and his daughter Maxine (5 years old) featured prominently in most storylines, and his relationship with them, as husband, father, and provider, was an ongoing theme.
The series championed vegetarianism and animal rights, causes Morrison himself supported. In one issue, Buddy helps a band of self-described eco-terrorists save a pod of dolphins. Enraged at a fisherman's brutality, Buddy drops him into the ocean, intending for him to drown. Ironically, the man is saved by a dolphin.
Buddy fought several menaces, such as an ancient, murderous spirit that was hunting him; brutal, murderous alien Thanagarian warriors; and even the easily-defeated red robots of an elderly villain who was tired of life. The series made deep, sometimes esoteric, references to the entire DC canon, including B'wana Beast, Mirror Master, and Arkham Asylum.
It is awesome. Animal Man is cool, Morrison is awesome. Totally recommended 👆

Reed boosted their speeds at Hyper speed levels which is basically thousands of times FTL and Glads was able to match their speeds and even follow their movements before busting in there to engage Thor. One of the best speed feats in comics minus the Zoom and Flash fight and that is a pure indication of what you said. The writer made that scene as an indication of Gladiators power buuuuut.....
where was "hypers speed levels = 1000's of times FTL" actually said??
in the same comic the feat took place in, or was that *yur* estimation of said?

thats dishonest carver, as that page was the tail-end of a fight where Glads was being made to think he was being blasted by an energy cannon by Rocket, when in fact it was a tp-ploy by Rachel which he only came to figure out cuz of some little factoid they'd gotten wrong; Rocket had gotten in quite a few "blasts" b4 he figured out the deception.
so yea, tp WOULD work on him.

I said "tends to be faster," not is always faster; and we both know that reaction times in comics are not as keyed to super-speed as they should be.
