I haven't read JL Odessey
She, along with Azrael and others are New Gods now, thanks to Darkseid. Darkseid sent these new New Gods to kill Orion and his crew in multiple points in time, according to Epoch. In one point of time, she killed Orion, casually. She would wreck Psylocke now.

well no shit lol if she can kill Orion she can wreck all mutants from krakoa let alone psylocke, considering how OP Orion has been in n52
which issue does she start with the upgrade
To clarify, I'm not arguing Starfire won't blitz due to CIS. I'm mostly arguing she isn't actually lightspeed or capable of blitzing. I don't believe "space cheese" should always be dismissed, but I do believe writers aren't usually concerned with mathematical accuracy. If the story requires any given flier to be at Mars in a short amount of time, they will do so. I don't think writers consider the magnitude of interstellar distances though, especially with characters that never display similar speed any other time.
Similarly, the story required Rogue to save Wolverine from a laser. The scene is meant to say "she's fast and cares for her teammates" rather than "she's literally faster than light." Same for Psylocke and her lightspeed "feats." That was my point with all that.
The high meta tier is generally supersonic/hypersonic, with high ends like any other tier. Dedicated speedsters might go beyond that more often. I get that lines can blur, but I don't think I'm saying anything outrageous.
Similarly, I think we overplay the real life speed of thought vs comic speed of thought in forum blitzes. We accept that comic humans are stronger or more durable than real life humans, but we act like they don't think ridiculously faster too.

You and those two.The only KMCers in the site's entire history that obsessed over female characters and, as dreadful as the mere thought is, probably respected women in real life.
I need a drink.
They knew a lot about metas too. I feel like heralds get all the shine, with the occasional popular streets.
I think Q99 actually is female. I remember them letting it slip somewhere. I think they hid it for fear of not being taken seriously.
Sin clearly doesn't give AF though.
