Both have their high and low points. Thor with the bullet and Orion with fire.

So which is it?

Apparently the writer, Priest stated that the bullet was vibranium for all it's worth. Gotta find that statement.

What's Orion's greatest durability feat? Or are we going by averages?

Prep-Man
A couple that I know of is fighting Darkseid in a fire pit, which is 10x hotter than the sun itself.

and surviving a massive explosion that destroyed the Euricos, which is the Source's archenemy.

I'd probably agree with that.

Slaanesh

Didn't he nearly die during that incident or am I thinking of something else?

Also, Thor's was in the core of Classic Firelord's power unleashed when he was blood lusted and according to him his flame was birthed in the raging heat of a million stars.

Thor's also held Mjolnir with no problem when he charged it with the power/energy of a thousand suns. And I don't think he was over exaggerating as Surtur had to deflect the hammer away with Twilight.

Gotta see the impressiveness of the Euricos feat to judge.

You'll have to be more specific, because they have fought in the pits numerous times.

Here is the other feat I was taking about. Read it here.

Thanks for that. Walter Simson's run on Orion was excellent. Those two issues REALLY remind of his run on Thor. Once I'm done re-reading Thor, and reading Lucifer, I'm going to finish reading Walter's run on Orion.

Anyways.....

So from what I understand, he had the Anti-Life, and he passed it on to the Ecruos. The two are complete opposites and what was the result? It blew up and was destroyed.

Unfortunately I don't see how you can gauge how impressive that was. No measure of the explosion was given and it didn't do any damage to the tree of life.

You need some measure or form to determine whether or not an explosion is impressive....

True, but on the other-hand, it was the Source's opposite and the way Walt described it on the New Gods message board makes me believe that it was a nice feat. Not much to go on, but the thing was a threat to the universe itself.

Here is Orion surviving 1000 nuclear explosions per minute.

It was a danger to the Universe because it was consuming the tree from the inside out. If a single piece of it breaks off, a galaxy implodes. Give me an axe and put me inside of that tree, and I'm a danger to the Universe as well (I think I need to rethink the Enchantress comment.).

It was the opposite in the sense it was against all life etc. as I understood.

Where does that happen in that scan?

I was just basing it off of what Simonson said, but you're right, there is nothing to measure it.

What about the scan?

Well, what can you do.

Nowhere does it say his withstanding the power of a 1000 nuclear explosions per minute.

Yeah, I was reading it, but the 2 respect threads, created by Astro has it in quotation marks. He probably didn't add the scan or something. But as you can see, even Infinity Man has a hard time moving through.

shiv
Orion. Gingers are more resilient than their straw haired counterparts.
