The Runner Vs Superboy Prime

Started by DarkSaint855 pages

I'd kinda ignore power scaling, just because then you could argue Batman/Deathstroke (both of whom have tagged Flashs many a time) are FTL....characters are used to make others look good. Hence the request for quantifiable speed feats.

Runner was explicitly left in dust by Makkari at lightspeed and unable to escape a black hole.

He is slower than any flash.

He was suprized, plus that whole thing didn't make any sense because it was stated that the top speed is light speed but we can ignore that since there are loads of examples of people slower than Runner moving faster than light.

I think I know what you're refering haven't read that in a while there might have been circumstances, weren't they trying to help Inbetweener beat Galactus?

Well I'm afraid he doesn't have lots of feats so the only thing you can do is looks and feats and power scale. Not even sure if it's power scaling but a statement of fact Surfer said he was more powerful than him and Runner easily beat him and was faster than him too, not only that he speed blitzed Thanos, Surfer couldn't do that. So yea based on what we know Runner is faster than Surfer.

No tagging Flash doesn't mean FTL not sure how you came to that logic.

I'm just saying, if we say character X is as fast as character Y because they could affect each other....its not always black and white.

I swear, your ability to breath with Superman's prosthetic shlong down your throat is like a super power. Where the hell are you getting that Superman is more powerful and faster than the Runner? And people wonder why they get called fanboys.

Quantifiable? Is all fake dude, therefore unquantifiable. All we have is a vague idea based on an average of their showings. So you are telling me what he did to Surfer and Thanos should be discounted?

Curious, do you have an actual argument?

Why are you derailing the thread?

More confirmation that Surfer was moving at a multi-universe/timelines spanning speed to escape multiversal destruction.

Anything that the Surfer can do Runner can do better i would assume if Runner had his own comic series he would have done the same [/QUOTE] This implies that the Surfer of 2016 = the Surfer of 1987... Which is most definitely NOT the case. Surfer's powers have obviously been increased in the ~30 years since he last battled Runner. 🙂

Please provide evidence for your arguments instead of just making statements please, so please provide evidence that 2016 Surfer is just as powerful or more powerful than The Runner. Even if he was more powerful don't think that changes anything.

It is not 'just' a statement; it is a well-known fact.

You posted a scan/feat of 2016 Surfer, and said that Runner is superior to him. However, your opinion that Runner > Surfer hinges on their battle ~30 years ago. It does not take into account Surfer's increases in power since then. In layman's terms: 2016 Surfer >>> 1987 Surfer.

The burden of proof, it would seem, actually falls on YOU to prove that Runner is beyond CURRENT Surfer... But given that Runner was capped at SUB-light speed in Quasar #58, you'll be hard-pressed to prove that, me thinks. 🙂

No it isn't anyone can make statements, this is a debate thread, in debate threads you provide evidence and elaborate. In fact I don't think you've provided evidence for anything in this thread. Poor debating. In fact prove that it's a well know fact then. What does Surfer have written on his chest 'I'm more powerful than I was in 1987'? facepalm

Stop trolling. No I don't need to provide proof because Runner being capped at sublight speed is complete nonsense because I know that you have read 100s of marvel comics and you know that Grunewalds statement of light being the fastest speed there is complete nonsense. No I'm not contradicting myself if you actually read what I said, anyone can pick up a marvel comic with a herald level character and see them moving faster than light, there are going to be lots of people who don't know Surfer is more powerful than he was in 1987. Even if he was, how much more powerful? Is he subskyfather level now? Absurd statement.

...that's not what quantifiable means.

In 1987, speed of light was the top speed. Since then, Surfer has gone faster than that. Ergo, Surfer is more powerful than then.

No it wasn't. That's why the statement is nonsense lots of characters have gone faster than light before and after that statment. It's like saying diamond is more durable than Adamantuim it's simply not true in the Marvel universe.

Who went faster before that statement?

Edit: Also:

Well he's supposed to be much faster than Surfer who can travel many times the speed of light. From what I can see in his feats you could argue that he can travel 100 or 1000s of times the speed of light. The Runner is a speedster by the way so his movement speed can be applied to his combat speed.

Anything that the Surfer can do Runner can do better i would assume if Runner had his own comic series he would have done the same


Flash has gone way faster than that. And SBP is even FASTER than Wally:

'Not even Wally'.

Everyone lol. Ok not literally everyone but you get the idea.

Nah that's not proof, the problem is that they're going so fast you can't quantify it. All we know is lightspeed >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. It's the same with the flashes you don't know exactly how fast they're going but you know that they can travel a lot faster than light.

You can quantify this feat.
