These two space warriors face each other.

Fight in the outer part of the Solar System.

Starhawk has what it takes to get a nice 6-7/10 imo. He can match Novas' speed, strength, energy projection etc. Nice powerset all around.

Bentley
Have you read the old Guardians ongoing?

I'm catching up on it thanks to Inimalist.

His ability to go to a nigh instantaneous light speed blitz is a devastating tool to have working in his favor in a forum match. Even for someone as fast as Rider.

I'm going with Nova Prime. Starhawk was cool but in terms of sheer power, I don't know, something makes me doubt him.

Bentley
Nova is probably more physically imposing considering Starhawk couldn't hang long against Holywood, but the rest of his status make this a very good fight.

Starhawk did go toe to toe with Thor though. Hollywood is physically above an average Thor imo.

Bentley
That's probably true. I haven't read the Guardians lately, but if I recall correctly SH at his best is very impressive, but he has some less than stellar low showings...

He has a loosely defined power set. It was a type of precog related to himself and his experiences in different dimensions or some such.

ok, so just going by speed, his best feat is this one, which is great because it is also a combat feat. If need be, I can expand this point, but unlike a lot of the characters who are fast but more brawler or whatever, Starhawk is strictly a speed character, and his MO is to accelerate to FTL then blast at his opponents.

anyways, it says he goes instantly to lightspeed than increases it through "geometric compounding". if lightspeed = c, than "geometric compounding would be: c + cx + cx^2 + cx^3... etc. Taken with the "multi-erg" (which is a measure of power, like joules), we probably shouldn't try to figure out a quantifiable value, but it is clear that he very quickly can accelerate to multiple times the speed of light:

(notice, he is invisible to the pathbreakers sensors. These are good sensors. In the issue that immediatly preceded the one this scan is from, Starhawk was moving FTL when the robot attacked him. This means the robot CAN sense things FTL, but Starhawk now is moving so much beyond that)

Here we see his ability to dodge at FTL:

Also, the Starhawk that punked Mantis was greatly diminished because he had to remain connected to Doom's time machine.

I'd bet on the Worldmind being able to track Starhawk on a battle agains Nova. Even with a huge head start, he was able to catch fake Quasar who was travelling multiple speeds of light.

he eventually gets him here...

During battle, Richie can use Worldmind to track, plot, analyze, and target anything he wants instantaneously by processing data directly to his brain. This makes him fight intuitive and instinctive.

Here Phalanx uses orbital sensors to track Nova Prime travelling at superluminal speeds (ftl), but are still unable to catch him even after deploying 8 sentries. They resorted to using rapid-positioning teleportation just to be able to tag him along with 100 more sentries!!!

Without orbital sensors, the Phalanx with all their advanced tech are unable to track a regular Nova centurion. A centurion has like 1/1000th of Nova Prime's power. Probably less.
