Nah, that was what appeared to be an energy blast. It was a big red ball of energy with lightning around it.

With an amplified mystical punch correct? Yeah he nearly went right through that shield. This is true. However this is a H2H match, which means mysticism is not really allowed. The magic may have also rendered physical laws useless.

Yeah, but it didn't really look like a punch though....

It was at least something akin to an energy construct from a gl or something.

Wrong, that wasn't a big energy blast at all, re-read it. That was Nova's shield's full blast shattering. You even see the shattered parts falling apart around his energy shield.

You're kidding right? It was clearly a punch.

Didnt look like a punch to me either.

Looked to me like it was laced with energy, whatever it was. How about someone post the scan, I can't find the book as i always place all comics in the shed that are older than 6 months.

Oh yeah, look at Mar-Vell's stance....it looks so much like an energy blast....not. I guess Mar-vell shoots energy blasts while his fists are clenched and aimed downward as if he just threw a punch.

well, if you look at the glowing hands and crackling energy trails on Lord Marv's fists... looks like an energy attack to me.

Kind of reminds me of the time Savage Hulk ripped through shields that was meant to stop Celestials. Or we have this instance....WWH thunder clap hitting an amped Fing Fang so hard (not even a punch) that it rips through a high end skyfather shields that were meant to hold an empowered race of Super Humans at bay.

Actually I'm not wrong. It was exactly as I described it. Perhaps you should re-read it.

No. Unless you want to argue that his fist manifests itself as a big ball of red energy. Or that Hal Jordan actually punches things when a big green fist appears a couple feet away from his actual arm. 😬

That big ball of energy is Nova's shield being shattered, clear as day.

And I guess all of that energy and lightning means nothing right?

If you want to take your perspective of the art as fact, then cool, but I don't agree with you.

Since when did Nova's shields ever manifest as big red balls and lightning? As I understand it, its like a full body thing most of the time.

it's a still image and yet, I feel you've been misdirected somehow.
It's not the frayed edges of Nova's shield that are relevant to the point about it being an energy attack. Energy blasts have shattered energy constructs before, it's nothing new.

What's relevant here is the glow and crackle of energy emanating from both Lord Marv's fists. This is the classic comic amped fist energy blast pose, as depicted by many many herald levellers including Surfer and GLs.

It's clear as day a punch that's amped by energy

Can we call it an energy amped punch?

I dunno what to call it. I'll go with an "exotic attack". Classy?

That is clearly not an energy blast, Mar-Vell doesn't energy blast with his fists clenched, nor does he energy blast with his clenched fist aiming at the ground, and further why would his "energy blast" look like it's shattering?

It's clearly Nova's shield being shattered, and it even says on panel his shields are being breached while it's happening

This is Mar-Vell's energy blast:

See the difference?

Yeah. He blasted the Magus in that manner as well.

Then why was it the same color as the energy around LMV's hands?

I don't recall Nova's energy "projections" being anything but yellow or blue.

Also, his energy comes from his hands, so whether his fists are opened or closed doesn't really matter imo. Also, it should be noted that it was a construct in the shape of a pentagram of the same color as the one in front of Nova that nearly killed the annihilators at the end of the comic.

Regardless, I feel that this conversation is about to get really subjective.
