Blackbolt Vs. Superman

Bb's whisper seals the deal.

Or you could read the forum rules.

It is assumed that each contestant will fight to his/her best ability, but still within the character's personality, unless specified otherwise. That means they will use any powers at their disposal. For example, even though The Flash doesn't clock each of his own opponents in the first millisecond in his own comic, it is assumed that is a viable tactic on this board since it is a proven fact that he possesses that level of speed.
It is also assumed that the characters fight at their optimum levels of ability - not explicitly weakened or unusually powered up for those who have variable power levels.

I have said this in the HV vs BB scream thread. Superman is superior to Blackbolt in every vital stat department. Which is enough to warrant him the win here.

Your quote has me thinking that Superman would fly in there at super speed, cover BB's mouth, and one-shot him. IMO Superman wins this.

Upon the Infinity appearances I would say it shows Blackbolt definitively wins here.

Lets debate this in the Surfer vs Superman thread.

Superman.

One month ago, I would have said Superman stomps. But seeing what BB did to Thanos......while weakened and comparing it to what established Elite High Heralds like Thor did (NOTHING), I'm saying if BB let's out a sound, it's lights out for SM.

The bomb started working only after Black Bolt screamed. This suggest the scream is what activated it. It also heavily implies the scream is what powered it too. What evidence is there to suggest the bomb siphoned energy off his actual body? Black Bolt was no where near the bomb when it activated. There was no implied connection between the bomb and Black Bolt, except the scream.
You've hit on the right idea. The point is, the bomb itself converted sound to light to cast its worldwide transformative effects:

So whether or not it siphoned power from Black Bolt's body to weaken him is irrelevant. The Terrigenesis Bomb definitely drew its power directly from his scream. And as noted by the observant, the bomb itself is lighting up before it hits Thanos. At best, the bomb is being powered up concurrently with Thanos tanking it. At worst, Thanos took the brunt of a diminished scream after the bomb had already drawn power from it. Either way, nobody should be looking at those scenes and arguing that Thanos took the attack first, and then the bomb drew in sound.

And as I'm sure people will gloss over, like with the scream-powered bomb that eventually caused the Fault into the Cancerverse, Black Bolt's scream in Infinity powered a device that unlocked dormant Inhuman genes across an entire planet's population. For comparison's sake, it took the entire damn Phoenixforce sacrificing itself to do the same for dormant mutant genes.

Food for thought.

Yeah, Black Bolt's voice is uber. In January, I'm going to make him a revamped respect thread.

No, do it now.

Can't. Too busy raping and pillaging.

Nice showing for Blackbolt better for Thanos. Superman wins.

How does he win ? He can't tank even a whisper without being seriously injured.

Superman wins. If we're going by high end feats, superman has so many that BB would be left into dust.

You haven't seen what Superman has endured, have you?

We have to put it into context. Do you really see Superman no selling Thor's lightening strikes, while not even bothering to defend himself, and then a Mjolnir smash to the face without so much as breaking skin?

No right? Well the guy that withstood that assault, with a smile, was bloodied by a weakened Black Bolt.

Thanos took the full scream at full power followed by the multiple whispers after he was weakened.

Its too much of an ABC comparison. But yes, I've seen superman shrug off attacks that oneshot or even kill other top tiers. I could post them if you like.

Also if Thor's lightning wasn't magical, I can safely say that Superman can shrug it off. He's never been bothered by lightning that much and sometimes even laughed at lightning from top tiers.

Also bloodying Thanos is good and all but its not be all, end all feat that you're making it out to be. Thanos was shown to be ultimately far above BB too. His scream has also failed to put down fantastic four while being bloodlusted, what would you make that out to be?

supes should win. not stomp, but win.
BB will take some if he opens with a scream.
won't happen in the majority of their encounters though

Superman pre DCnU tanked an 50 x Supernova explosion, while weakened, while his powers were drained by red sun radiation. He would tank the full blast of BB, it would hurt and rock him but he would stand. I also think that he would tanke the weakened blast from BB that Thanos took. He could also avoid the blast alltogether with speed alone, get behind BB and ko him. He wins easy.
