Slade is explicitly faster than her. She later wins the battle, of course, but he fight pretty evenly with her throughout the fight.

I don't know why Deathstroke is punching a skinny John Belushi in drag and I don't care. I approve 👆

Btw, perhaps bluewaterrider was unaware, but the invisible jet no longer responds to mental commands - because it's dead.

I didn't 'unknowingly' allude to it. I know full well that the Jet isn't standard equipment, and she won't have it here.

Yeah, you did. I wasn't referring to the jet but to you not knowing the shooting girl was Devastation, a meta human with as much, if not more, speed, strength, and skill as Diana herself.

So Deathstroke level, then.

Bonus points if you spot how punches from DS draw blood from WW.

Bluewaterrider was very much unaware the jet had died.
And Bluewaterrider is now thinking staff deadlines must have been hell at DC if that's the level of writing that got past the editors.

I'm too busy trying to figure out why Flash doesn't seem fast enough to avoid any pointed object in Deathstroke's possession.

Probably the same reason WW can't either:

Lemme guess...magic as well?

Bad writing? In comics? Say it ain't so!!!

Your pictures not showing, E.

All it displays is some "Tripod" apology message for the error.

Might be worthwhile to point out that Riv's opening post is Diana at day-dreaming speed. She moves a lot faster than that when actual need arises.

The following is featured in the Brave and the Bold, roundabout 2007, I think, in the same B & B series that featured Mark Waid writing Supergirl, The Book of Destiny, and Megisthus:

While I'm looking at them, might as well include these:

I've tried fixing it. It should hopefully appear in all its glory now.

The Brave and the Bold scan still doesn't show much, especially as we know Flash has MUCH better evacuation feats:

And then of course, there is the speedsteal.

Was waiting for this. A possessed, mind-controlled Flash. Nah. As you can clearly read from my post, I specifically mentioned that Flash had to be in his right mind.....

After all, it specifically says that WW doesn't have to be fast - just predict where STARRO was going to attack.

So yeah, she didn't use speed.

Didn't see you write that anywhere in your post, but I agree -- if Flash isn't in his right mind, he might do something stupid ...

So now I'm 😕

You've gone from using PIS showings....to using Injustice WW....to using equipment that no longer works the way you think it does, or that she carries around as standard, or is legal on forums....to using mind controlled Flash.....to now using Supergirl, and relocating the fight to the Moon?

OK.

Speedsteal.

Oh, and since you don't seem to give my posts the attention they richly deserve 🙁:

Because at the moment, the only clear-cut comparison we have between WW and Flash, where both are in their right minds etc - is Flash running backwards with a cheeky smile, and outpacing her.

And he has stolen her speed.

This. Nothing more to add.

I guess there was more to add!

Indeed there was more to add.

This thread raises some interesting issues, though.

In no particular order:

When does a person's habitual action go from PIS, or even CIS, to a defining feature, habit, or trait of that character?

How much should be corrected for when a writer elevates a character to effective demigodhood?

For the last, I'm thinking of the following, where neither Flash NOR Wonder Woman fare all that well against the Master of Overachievement we know as Bruce:

It's pretty standard for Bats...same as with Deathstroke (as seen in this thread) and Cap.

IOW, I wouldn't rely too much on showings involving these characters for their opponents,but I would rely on the showings for them.

So in a Batman thread,I'd use his showings against WW, or Superman.

But in a WW thread, I'd hesitate to use them in a serious manner against WW. Of course,for humour I might,but it won't be serious.

Same with DS. I wouldn't use his showings against WW to say how weak WW was - unless of course, he was being used as a yardstick for his opponents.

Those two are definitely in classes of their own. If anything, Batman was even more haxx in the following JLA submission than he was in the previous one, taken out of Batman Confidential #53:

There's an even MORE haxx showing, lol, in DCnU. Where he outspeeds HV, and takes a beating from WW when she's pissed off. And he's not wearing armour.

It's worth noting MOST of Wondy's teammates were holding back to some degree in that last JLA submission.

There's a lot of good feats and information in this thread. I might try to marry these showings with reference information in the relatively near future.
