Can Gladiator survive DOS?

Gladiator enters DOS

Could Gladiator survive the DOS arc

Or would Glads fail to stop Doomsday?

Same Arc just replace Superman with Gladiator

Can Gladiator stop Doomsday's rampage?

He dies, just because of his confidence. If it wavers.....which I believe it can, then he's done for.

Gladiator doesn't have the showings to beat Doomsday

I think he can do that.

Dicksday gets carve(r)d up.

That was so clever

Gladiator fails and dies miserably trying to fill Superman's shoes.

Hurry up get Maxima in here!

Glads does a have a pretty significant speed advantage over anyone DD fought. During that period Supes couldn't even hit lightspeed... Hell I'm not 100% sure that the Flash could go FTL at that point.

Yes, that is why i said he could do that. He have a good speed advantage here.

Butt hurt thread. Gladiator boots DD into space or just simply planet destroy punch him to death. Something superman could never do.

Glads speed can be inconsistent, especially in combat.

He had that terrible showing when his travelling speed was nothing to admire even when much further enhanced by the Uni-power.

Anyway, according to Booster Gold, DoS Dicksday was faster than Flash... 😖hifty:

Oh I know, that's why I didn't say "Glads stomps", I know his speed is inconsistantly portrayed. I suppose this fight comes down to whether or not a debater feels that speed should always be played up in forum fights despite it's frequency of use in comics or if they feel characters who don't blitz/dodge much in comcs should be considered to do it proportionately on the forum 😈

Yeah but since was a one off and happened while powered up compared to multiple other portrayals I think it's pretty safe to put that one under the "PIS" category.

Very true, but lip service from a character who lacks super speed doesn't mean a whole lot. I remember a villain saying that Captain America's speed rivaled Quicksilvers right after fighting Pietro in fact. Even if it did, Flash wasn't nearly as fast back then as he is nowadays.

So who has Gladiator defeated that is worth mentioning or that is on DOS level?

Is that so? Even pre DOS Superman has feats that shows his reflex speed is faster than nanosecond levels.

He actually had a long discussion with Deadman there at Superspeed.

Not an isolated instance either.

Byrne Superman is not some weakling posters make him out to be.

I didn't say he was a weakling, I said he couldn't yet hit lightspeed.

That was more an editorial constraint than anything. He was still crossing solar systems in moments.

Good thing is that Gladiator has exactly zero feats for lightspeed combat unless you count his nanosecond fist raising against Hyperion.

Even then Superman is vastly faster than him and he was struggling to catch up with Doomsday in speed. Gladiator has nothing in his arsenal which can even hurt Doomsday.

He got teleportation tech from the Legion for space travel, you can't infer FTL travel based on him for that kind of thing unless it was stated or at least clearly implied. After all, it DID take quite a while for DD to reach Metropolis.

Glads dies and I doubt he will stop DD. Jane Thor would be the better choice.

He got the teleporter from Hamilton because he could not breathe in space . But yeah, this isn't lightspeed travel.

Neither is this.
