sooo..... no ftl ww feats? lol wonder woman fans cant talk about her without superman.
There's literally, like, 5 members total that are familiar with her speed feats, without having to go through respect threads.

Any one of those can go in this thread and argue that she's FTL or not, and nobody would have any idea whether they're correct or not.

Thus...

No.

Yes.

Maybe.

Hellraiser CDTM. So that's what I was like in my youth.

It was a different time. A time when you thought burning a house down to spite someone was funny, without taking into consideration all the other people in the building, and the people in the neighborhood, and the people in that city it spread to.

To be fair to WW, she's not in that list because of her speed, lol.
Here's a scan

Here's some more scans

"She's too fast"

She practically solo'd Zod and Faora for a moment there (who were beating the crap out of Superman before WW showed up), and then literally treated Clark like a hostage victim because she destroyed Faora so thoroughly.

Zod could have finished Superman, and he would have had an advantage. Instead, he agreed to a truce.

Says a lot about his respect for her.

Agreed. Superman is, at heart, a farm boy who can't really understand what it means to be a true warrior. Zod and Diana at least understand that, despite being enemies.

Superman has had more fights in comics than any "warrior" in real world history. Not to mention the sparring, and training.

So none of n52 WW fighting n52 Batman without holding back?

Thanks.

Meanwhile, I've shown n52 Batman, without armour, whilst injured, being sucker-punched by an amped WW who is not holding back. Who is specifically trying to kill him:

Can't really call it an outlier, when so far, I have shown the only time they've fought.

So going back to my original point: power-scaling is useless. If a writer wants to show it, Batman, a street, is able to fight with WW even when she's bloodlusted and amped. If a writer wants to show it, WW can tag speedsters. That doesn't mean she's faster.

Traveling speed? No
Hand and reflex speed? Yes

Fanboy alert! OBM is at it again with Superman boosting. 😠

Next he'll be gushing over Spidey.

She was unable to fight Mayfly with her superspeed. And Bizarro.

meh the mayfly fight was super short. hard to conclude anything from that. she was more trying to figure out who mayfly was. i thought the feat where she blocked that bullet from a sniper rifle AFTER it penetrated the window was pretty damn impressive. calculate the speed of that bullet and the time it would have covered the distance from the window to her bracelet and that a hell of a reaction feat.

bizarro from trinity (if that's what you're talking about) did beat the hell out of her, but i've never been sure if that was canon.

she didn't QUITE seem as fast as hermes in combat, but it was pretty close.

cheetah is a good one, but it could be argued that cheetah too has light speed or close reaction times. we saw cheetah and superman. besides, wonder woman has given almost as well as she's taken from cheetah so that's close to a wash.

i think it can be said pretty definitively she can't travel ftl--at least not on her own though she can approach light speed. i consider her reaction speed to be light speed. there are feats to indicate they could be ftl, and some that would say otherwise. after thinking about it, i guess i'll settle in the middle. she's as fast or faster than pretty much anyone not superman or flash imo.

Post Flashpoint not sure but pre Flashpoint Wonder Woman is definitely not faster than light.

She couldn't catch or keep up with Jesse quick who is a Speedster that is definitely not faster than light Jessie has only one feat of reaching light speed when she was entering the speed force and that particular feed she was chasing her father's killer so pretty damn motivated to keep up with a Wonder Woman had to lasso her

Yeah...Trinity is bad for WW, if it is canon.

RA'S was giving her a fight:

Meh, Deathstroke and Batman have also given her fights.

Yeah, but Bats has outright beaten Ra's before....

My point is, no lightspeeder (or FTL speeder) should even notice...what was it that Carver and XLR87T3 called them, 'street-level humans?' yeah, an FTL character shouldn't even notice them.

Assuming we are power scaling, of course.

I don't even know what you people are talking about, I'm just posting scans
