You want me not to take it seriously, but you also want it to be debated seriously? Which is it?

Anyway, both in concept and portrayal, Doomsday was meant to have enough speed to contend with Superman, to the point that even when using superspeed, Superman would have major trouble beating him. This has been consistent across almost all the versions of Doomsday we've seen in comics.

This is some double speak shit, if ive ever seen it. You should work in political campaigns.Also, dd is fast enough to contend with the fastest of dc
💃
Lots of characters contend with DC's fastest. I think what is being asked are actual speed feats to justify this battle board's standards.

A bloodlusted Superman(ala DoS), who is in the process of getting pummeled, explicitly states that he has to keep increasing his speed just to contend with Doomsday.
Don't get why there's a need to make this so hard?

Well, you have scenes of Superman and Flash talking and seemingly moving around normally while the rest of the world appears frozen. We've never seen DD in such a scene. On the other hand, we have Superman fighting Doomsday and struggling against his speed while the rest of the world is able to spectate and comment on the details of the fight. So how does that work for full capacity?

You also have Superman being able to spectate and comment on Barry/Wally outracing Death, so how does that work for full capacity?

DD knows like five words. How the hell could he have a conversation?
Seriously though. I get what you're saying, but that isn't the only way to measure speed. And even in DOS, people literally say they're seeing a blur as Superman and Doomsday fight.
And Superman isn't even going all out at that point either.

To be fair, I don't think people understand artwork.
Here, the characters clearly say that Superman is a red and blue blur:
Yet we DON'T see this depicted in the art. Because of this, people who skim read the comic and only look at the pictures think that they are static and fighting at street level, perhaps?
