I'd have to dig out the issues, but I'm pretty sure that story was told before the big reveal that there even was an Imperiex Prime, making it pretty much about that probe.

I may be wrong, but going to dig through all my boxes to find a story that old would be a pain, but I'll do it if no one else knows offhand.

It just seemed that no one witnessed the Imperiex outside of the Probes, prior to the end of Our Worlds at War.

If you find it, please post it. I don't think 100,000 was all at once.

You're right:

But like I said, the Probes' high-end feats don't matter here. Apparently 5 heralds would be able to do what 100,000 solar powered Daxamites (+Daxamite tech) were unable to.

Never mind. That's crazy.

Hey, Galan! How many probes did Imperiex have in his army?

I don't think they gave a number. Enough to pretty much attack the whole universe nearly at once?

A "countless" amount:

Hmm, so in the millions do you think?

They have powers that Daxamites don't however

True, but One Probe took on the League and Legion of Super-Heroes, which can match and exceed in power.

But they didn't use all of those exotic powers against it

So, they were just punching the Probe? I doubt it would have worked anyway. Remember, many heroes needed a power amp to defeat one of them.

...And Mordru.
...And Superman/Mongul
...And Wally+J'onn+Dianna+normal Superman+Kyle+Plastic Man
...And Zod+his forces
...And Aquaman /w/ Trident+Atlantis
...And Kalanor, home of Despero
...And 100K solar powered Daxamites
...And Almerac
...And Karna
etc.

That crap doesn't matter though.

Mordru was clearly trying to cast against it in the picture.
A lot happens off-panel. It would be kinda dumb to think they didn't try whatever they had to win those confrontations.

PIS happens all the time, how many times has Flash for instance forgotten 99% of the powers he has when in a fight?

An all out superman who was specifically meant to be vastly stronger than usual and considered a peer to H/P doomsday was destroying the probes. Normal superman even with the aid of mongul struggled with just a single probe.

What does energy manipulation has to do with power? FYI kyle amped by Ion force got steamrolled by a single probe. The same kyle contained a portion of the imperiex himself. Blitzer? Who is even close to superman's speed in these chumps?

None of these guys are going to solo a probe much less kill as many as superman or doomsday did.

So how come Superman needed all that weapon during Hunter and Prey just to fight H/P DD? He could've just gone all out right?

So now your saying Kyle contained Imperiex's powers but lost to a probe; therefore, you're claiming Superman all out and H/P DD, who killed a slew of probes, is more power than Imperiex, who was able to kill Doomsday in one shot and almost killed all out Superman? Some logic.

Ever heard of jobbing and wanking? That's the best way to describe the probes in OWAW. One minute Kyle and the JLA feel to take out a single probe, the next Kyle contains Imperiex's big bang. One minute Superman struggles to fight a probe, the next he kills multiples as if they were fodder Ultron units.

Most of these guys would solo a probe. Kyle, WW, or Flash could also solo a probe if they weren't jobbing to make Superman look good.

Surfer, Gladiator, Quasar, and Nova would all solo a probe.

How many on panels were there of Mordru against a probe? If it's just that one picture, there seems to be a lot of posters getting boners over an ambiguous feat.

I still personally think Mordru struggling with a Probe isn't indicative of Mordru at his best levels or even his upper end levels. It's canon and certainly happened on panel, but it's pretty low for him.

He had mental blocks suppressing his true power then.

No. I claimed kyle contained a portion of imperiex's power(the rest was being absorbed by warworld).

That's not jobbing. The probes were that powerful, also kyle only held a portion of imperiex's powers. Superman was specifically powered up in that confrontation.

If that's your definition of jobbing, you don't read comics.

You're not claiming annihilators>100k daxamites, are you? That would be pretty dumb to say.

Nova, Norrin. I'd include FAGladiator but he can't even manage a decent bfr, let alone be smart enough to blitz. You know, with him being a stupid worthless POS character and all.

WWK only said that the team has 3 blitzers, the question of rather or not they're as fast as Superman is (redundant) baggage that you added in and you know it lol.


I only asked that because superman blitzed a probe and it shrugged it off. As for your answer, norrin and rich aren't close to superman level speed.
