Comic Book Questions & Discussion

Gotta love how the Flashes are once again sent away on another mission to keep them out of the main Dark Crisis storyline lol.

Funny how people can accept that for Saitama, but not, say, Superman.

Superman has lost a fight, on occasion.

I don't think that changes his narrative purpose, especially when those losses are generally just a means to create tension or stakes. You did say "serious" fight after all.

Don't fall into this trap. Proposing that Saitama could somehow lose a serious fight, is a losing proposition. Saitama is undefeatable on narrative level.

in the opm universe, even joke characters have their limits

we just saw him bleed in the new chapter

When did he bleed? Also, the guy tanked an attack that was discribed as the biggest explosion that has ever taken place in the universe. Tanked w punch that was morphing earth and crossing over to another dimension and did one of the best blitzes I've seen from any comic or manga character recently. Kicking portals, throwing them, turning them, etc... I usually don't give anyone the edge against Goku but I think Saitama wrecks him

Probably just spittle from Saitama's mouth, or flakes from Garou's own fist. I can guarantee that Saitama is 100% unharmed the next panel, once it comes out.

If flakes, then Saitama's fist is also flaking off.

That's not blood

Explain why it's the best blitz you've seen, even recently.

Not the same thing at all, AquaPr.

Go back to the ocean.

DC has all but abandoned any pretense of anyone being a challenge to Superman (narratively or otherwise). Saitama is just more consistent is all.
