Re: Speed ft minus the Flashes

Look at the showing again

Like I said, it depends on who the scene is aimed at.
If Saitama is 'strobing' from the POV of the reader, it's not that great. If from the guy's POV, then a great feat 👆
Anyway, here is Zum, a White Martian, 'strobing' against Wally West. I'm sure I don't need to tell you how fast Wally is:
As per Wally, that White Martian wasn't even using the Speed Force. So all natural speed, baby!
Non – Sequiter
This is when someone’s conclusion is not implied at all by the premise.
Example: “x character leaves afterimages, therefore x character is faster than light”.
The person in this example starts with a true premise (x character leaves afterimages), but then jumps to a conclusion which is in no way implied by that premise (x character is FTL).
You need to provide more than art with afterimages
I don't think after images necessarily indicate speed anywhere near the speed of light. I would want more then a feat of leaving after images before saying anyone is even near the speed of light.

Yeah, that is one reason I just don't read manga as much as I used to unless I can find it in color. Since otherwise a lot of time I have trouble figuring out exactly what is going on, especially in action sequences.
Anyways the title of the thread makes it seem like this was meant for any speed feats besides the Flashes, though the OP's actual post makes it seem like it's just asking how impressive a specific feat is.
But I will name some other feats I liked. Though it does involve Flash kinda, it's the comic where Flash trains Superman to better utilize his speed. At the end of the comic you have a scene where he really pushes himself hard and he does attain the speed of light. This is not even left up in the air, the specific speeds he is going as he accelerates are noted. But then once he passes lightspeed he ends up breaking into some kind of dimension. It was a weird comic.
There was actually a feat where Superman fails. He is on one side of the city and he hears a gunshot and has to basically fly to the other side of the city before the bullet can travel the 15-20 feet to it's target and he actually doesn't get there on time. He'd been repeatedly blasted with red sun radiation though so it is still a good feat. He is just barely too late, though it turns out the shot missed or the person purposely missed the shot, I forget.
@Rao,
Who said anything about light speed? You probably want to look at the speed ft you posted for a certain character because there were no indications of how fast he was going but you posted them like the showings were just amazing. Hell, ABHI posted a scan of him stand in place spinning in a circle as a huge speed ft. WTF

So you want to qualify a feat just based on the amount of afterimages the artist used?
I don't undestand an artist could use no afterimages and imply ftl speed or use many afterimages to depict subsonic speeds.
So I really don't understand what is it what you want.
You can't consider this a herald tier speed feat if You don't provide context. As shown to you it could be very well a meta speed feat.
That is why I mentioned the non-sequiter
