Superman on the verge of becoming his all star self version after being trap in the sun needed to be save by way of energy absorption..

List in order of who can get the job done and do it quicker???

High tier Gl ( Hal, Kyle, etc )
Surfer
Firestorm
Havok
Thor
Quasar
Nova prime (richie)
Energy superman
Takion
Captain atom

Quasar

Despite the fact that wouldn't happen (), probably Captain Atom, or maybe Firestorm or Norrin.

Mjolnir and the Quantum Bands ftw. The most proficient in this category imo.

I'm not sure what level of power Captain Atom is currently at. I recall him exploding after absorbing a minor Nuclear Weapon recently so I'm not sure if his up to it.

Thor and easily. The Qbands had problems with energies outside the EM Spectrum. Thor's absorbed everything that's been throw at him.

Quasar has had problems in the past but Solar Energy should be within his capabilities.

Isn't that what all star is about? Anyhow let's just say if it does..

Me I'm thinking

Havok
Surfer
Quasar
Thor
Gl
Ca
Es
Takion
Nova prime
Firestorm

Ah didn't see the stip, yes solar energy is within the EM Spectrum. He should have no problems.

I'm looking for who can do it the fastest..
I know mjonir or the q band potentially have no limitation of the absorption capacity..

Hasn't Quasar directly outperformed Surfer in this category? And I'd be hard pressed to justify Surfer being above Mjolnir.

Oh, okay.

For the record, Mjolnir has absorbed Galactic level power instantly.

Ahh but the energy was directed at him or point the energy was out.. This on the otherhand is house within superman..

So basically they're leeching the energy directly from Supes? If so, then how many of the above listed have actual direct energy leeching feats where they are straight up siphoning someone's power?

I can post examples of Thor drawing out energy if necessary.

And the example I referenced is the Null Bomb scene where he instantly disarms the container by drawing forth it's energy right before it explodes.

Fun fact: Thor once opened a portal to the surface of the Sun, then drew out and manipulated pure Solar energy.

Im going with atom

I know havok, surfer, quasar, takion, ca, firestorm, Gl, energy Supes has done it..

I had thought that the null bomb was at the point of explo when Thor had absorb the energy.. If this was not the case then I take him as 1st then..

I put havoc at first because he pretty much did it to someone with one look..

Rage is doing fine, but Mjolnir basically has every needed absorption feat to match and beat everyone on the list. Directed at him, not directed at him at all (the null bomb isn't the only feat), channeling energy through himself into Mjolnir when the hammer isn't pointed at anything, scope beyond anything needed for this matchup, ALL different kinds of energy, siphoning, etc. etc. He has his faults, but is basically the end-all in absorption at this level.

I'm pretty sure Thor got to it right before it exploded -the Recorder said only five seconds remained- and pointed out that Mjolnir was drawing forth all of the energy within the container. After the feat was performed, the Recorder -I think it was him- pointed out that Thor had defused the bomb.

If you want to double check, the event occurred in #407.

Alright new list.. Lol

Thor
Havok
Quasar
Surfer
The rest pretty much the same..

I love that Havok's so high up there. People really don't realize what he can do, and think he's a hand-blast version of his brother. He's got some psychotic feats to his name, better than half the herald levelers on the original list.

Takion>> all others. He can absorb extreme amount of energy and different types easily. I can't see anyone absorbing the speed force. Firestorm, Silver Surfer, and Quasar are good. But Thor would be next IMO. His hammer can absorb pretty much anything including magic. Well, this isn't obvious...

.

lol

nvr's always watching

.

In his earlier days he was exactly like that from his first limited series with wolverine tell earlier x-factor where there was a huge char. Development on his part which change him.. Yeah his gettin high up there.. Lol

Yeah takion should be up there too but his never absorb someone energy without touching dough this was in his earlier showing against ca were he was just getting use with his powers..

Damn cell so slow..

I'd have to see who on that list has siphoned that kind of energy from an organic being. Bombs and ambient energy are one thing, energy contained within the cells of someone like Superman is quite another imo.

Furthermore, If we're going to say that Thor can do it, I have yet to see -in a forum setting- people arguing Thor could siphon solar energy from supes. So if we're going to argue it now then it sets a new precedent for future Supes vs Thor battles.

Energy absorption is energy absorption. Besides, we've seen it work on everyone from the Wrecking Crew and their magic fueled powers to Firelord and his Power Cosmic.

I never understood why people so rarely bring up energy absorption against Superman in Thor vs. threads. Even those without CIS. I use to do it once in a while but people just don't picture it I guess. I'm assuming it's because he rarely uses it against opponents/beings or people have this misconception that for the energy absorption to work, the opponent has to blast Thor etc.

In theory you're right, but on panel and such it seems a bit different. I mean its not exactly a big leap in logic to presume that a character who can absorb energy directed at him/her should also be able to absorb/drain it from its source. But for whatever reason main characters rarely -if ever- do it. Villains seem to do it with no problem, e.g. Rulk, Absorbing Man, Vulcan etc.

Yep. As I said, if its valid in this scenario, which -unless I'm misreading the op- calls for direct siphoning of solar power from supes himself, then that's a real game changer and it's open season as far as I'm concerned. Especially given the fact of how Supes' solar absorption supposedly works, its even more expedient then the infamous "red sun radiation trick" that people argue in Norrin vs Clark fights.

You probably don't argue it for the same reason I rarely argue it for Nova. It just seems cheap. But I'll keep it in mind for future use.

The only thing I'd say towards that is in reference to Superman's ability to recharge incredibly quickly. Even if you want to assume that Thor can and will drain Superman, it just wouldn't seem practical to me when other avenues of attack could be better utilised...

Not that Thor would win.

So you don't think Mjolnir can drain Clark? Well, I have to go right now so I can't spend a few posts maneuvering you and proving my point.

I'll post all of Thor's notable energy manipulation/absorption feats. If you don't think Mjolnir can absorb Superman's energy after them, then we won't agree.

Seeing how powerful Mjolnir's energy absorption is, it would be a real game changer. Clark doesn't recharge instantly. If Thor drains him completely and then follows up with an attack, you'll end up in tears. The battle field also matters. An ability as simple as hiding the Sun under clouds would slow down the recharging.

This is assuming Thor would utilize it instead of just beating him to death.

Not that Thor would win. I hear you man, but would you agree that a Thor energy drain on Supes seems to be a far more likely -or at least believable- scenario then the red sun weakness exploitation that people argue in favor of Norrin?

It's like you mentioned earlier, I had never known Thor to be capable of direct siphoning of that sort. But it makes sense now looking back I suppose.

He recharges fast enough imo.

He can and has done it. Just look through the scans I posted and you'll find the evidence you need. I don't have time to pick and choose the specific feats unfortunately.

Fast enough for what? If Thor drains his cells completely, his pretty much f*cked I'd wager. It's not an instantaneous process. At least as far as I've seen.

fast enough to survive.

Thor would have to do it while overcoming the sun trying to recharge him too.

bishop wins

hmmmmmmm.......you guys have me wondering, i believe Human Torch, Sunspot, Pete Wisdom, or Sunfire are all capable


Iceman maybe, i cant remember if his powers are kinetic or thermal based


but id put my money on Katie Power

You using insults that sound harmless and almost endearing...cut it out. That's not how this forum works. uhuh

OV, you're a clunk head.
