Minus Flashes and Zoom...

What character has thrown the most punches and kicks during combat along with showing the best blitz. Please dont provide showings where we have to guess how many hits are thrown. Provide QUANTIFIABLE scans.

I would like to bring up Northstar. He has thrown a thousand punches in less than a second. Heralds or below, please.

So Ock can count them, now?

Writers intention. I think the original scan said hundreds of blows though.

Writer's intent isn't some magic excuse. Plus, usually writer intent is done in narration, not in thoughts.

Now, Speed Demon might well be capable of such a feat. Using Ock as a baseline for proving it, though, isn't a good idea.

carver9
How else would we have known how many punches SD thrown? Narration rarely exist in comics. The displayed power is usually voiced by the character.

...What? Narration is used all the time.

Usually when we see speed feats that a character talks about, the character thinking about it has the proven reflexes to be able to actually count the number.

Does Spidey-Ock have those reflexes? If so, fine. If not, you're pushing it.

Lol right?

Ock must perceive things so fast that he must see his own body as moving in slow motion.

"Oh dear, here comes blow number 556. I've been counting. Still can't move my body out of the way. Too slow."

It appears the more punches you land, the weaker they are, but this tops anything

A thousand blows hit before he even registered he was being attacked as per the Narration. Ranark didn't have time to count himself shifty

Eh? Northstar hit Ranark (who was a god-like being) a thousand times before he even knew he was being attacked. That's literally a fraction of a second too

We don't even know if it was Doc exaggerating either, while in Northstar's case in was the narration that stated it

-K-M-
A god like being hit a thousand times before he even knew was being attacked isn't a split second attack? Interesting. Pain receptors for most cases only need a split second to register in the brain.

So Doc registered his blows, and as mentioned earlier did he count them too? Sounds more like exaggeration then anything concerning Doc.

Bentley
It probably took five hours to Ranark to notice Northstar, he's so powerful he didn't even felt those puny punches.

So Doc registered his blows, and as mentioned earlier did he count them too? I can't tell whether or not you're being intentionally obtuse just because Northstar's feat doesn't compare. In either case, let me address this non sequitur. Your disbelief over the "counting" glosses over the obvious fact: Octavius didn't count, he quantified. Octavius wasn't doing his Sesame Street Count "1-2-3 bats" exercises while getting pummeled. He generalized a number that reached in the thousands. Octavius could have been hit anywhere between 2000x and 10000x times and his statement would be completely accurate. That quantification has a huge generalized range and doesn't concern itself with accuracy of counting. So your disbelief that Otto has the ability to count thousands of hits is a complete non sequitur.

Now if you want to argue that Otto cannot have the ability to quantify thousands of hits, then go ahead and make that argument. But I'd like to think that even you would at least admit the notion that Octavius probably knows the difference between dozens, hundreds and thousands.

And if that really strains your credulity, or in case you're thinking of dragging out this conversation with feigned befuddlement, consider this example: I can look at a stadium crowd in a moment -- without being a meta enhanced, bullet-timing super-genius -- and tell the difference between dozens of people in the stands, hundreds of people in the stands, and thousands of people in the stands.

Knowing the quantitative difference between dozens, hundreds and thousands isn't a feat of superspeed counting. It's rather unextraordinary and unconscious... even in everyday life. Originally posted by -K-M-
Sounds more like exaggeration then anything concerning Doc. Still far better than Northstar's feat.

-K-M-
My that was a long winded response and basically you using big words to appear smart *Golf clap* I shall leave it to the others decide, but there is no way those two feats are the best out there regardless.

Also an exaggeration means "to represent as greater than is actually the case; overstate" and guess what even smart people exaggerate too. Not sure why this is news.

haha what? you didn't even really talk about what I brought up. You just posted a long winded response that really answered nothing. Now you will reply with a predictable response saying blah blah blah your inability to correlate a response dictates the lack of credibility in your argument, etc.

Me leaving to others to decide is not a tactic, it's because I couldn't careless as I strongly believe neither of the feats are the best out there so doesn't even matter to debate the issue.

Cool thumb up Glad that's settled.

Anyways.....manga allowed or no?

ODG
^ I think if manga were allowed, this might devolve into a DBZ vs. mainstream comics thread. It's up to carver9 though.

If I could make a suggestion though to him if manga is fair game, since we're keeping Flash and Zoom out of it already, let's just keep DBZ out of it too.

-K-M-
I think that's fair, I'm sure Superman has a feat comparable if not better then what has been listed. I've seen him do a hundred blows in a second in a few instance, not sure about thousand but I wouldn't be surprised.

ODG
^ carver9 is relishing every single second that goes by without someone posting a definitive scan of Superman topping Speed Demon and Northstar. Don't take that away from him.

uhuh

Also, I can't recall of the top of my head where Superman threw hundreds of blows in a second. Can I haz teh scans plz?

-K-M-
Yep, just heading to work now. I'll try to track them down when I'm done.

Oh and BTW I wasn't debating that the speed demon feat was better then Northstar, but the far better part. Just want to make that clear.

eaebiakuya
I dont think DBZ has any quantificable " combat speed feats"

Superman has casually moved his entire body at a fraction of what was already a fraction of a nanosecond.

Speed Demon doesn't rate.

Are people seriously surprised at Ock counting those punches? Bullet-time reflexes combined with a super computer for a brain should do the trick. Hell, Parker was shown processing thoughts of several thousand people simultaneously but this you guys consider an exaggeration?

I got no ill will towards ODG, but does anyone have the scan of Superman using super speed punches on Ultraman (Happened in the Trinity series). I can't recall if they stated how many punches per second he landed.

ID is the go to person for manga stuff, sure he could pull up some examples.

Well the problem is, why can he count them yet can't seem to react to them?

This implies that his perception speed is immensely faster than his movement speed. Which means his own body will feel extremely slow to him. We obviously know that Ock does not consider his own speed to be slow.

At best we can say he made an educated guesstimate based on any prior knowledge of Speed Demon he may have from Parker's memories and/or a combination with any footage/data he may already have on his speed level.

So in the end, there's still room for it to work.

So in the end, there's still room for it to work. Spider-man's perception speed was always said to be > his actual speed. At some point a particular number was given iirc. So I dont see a problem with it. Think Mr X's fight with Quicksilver. He saw them coming but couldn't do a thing about it. That said, it doesn't mean he always sees the world in slow mo. If that was the case any character who can see and react to speeding bullets should die of boredom in a middle of any conversation.

This databook is correct ?

Because in the manga he attacked with 100.000 millions punches per second. I think he never attacked with 1 billion.

"Id"
Yeah thats the Data Book. Saint Seiya Encyclopedia (Taizen), if it matters its supervised by the Author himself.

I believe we never get a hit count of Lightning Plasma in the Manga, only in the Databook.

In the Manga it generalizes, and states all Gold Saints, and wielders of the 7th Sense are capable of striking 100 million times per second.

I believe I calc'd it before and it would take roughly 300 to 400 million punches a second to equal 'lightspeed punching'.

It's a comparison of stamina now, this question.

It depends how long the lightspeed puncher can go.

Its possible he could tire out at only 1000 punches.

If I averaged 2 punches a second for 8 to 9 minutes straight, that would put me at 1000+ punches.

Someone who punches at 100 million times per second, if their reflexes are on par with the speed of their punches, imagine how ****ing long that 1 second must feel to them.

It would take me over a year to do that if I could still average 2 punches a second for that long.

Technically, that many punches would be 150 million times 1 light speed punch. But yes, one light speed punch would be 1/3 faster that what you said

But that's not how it works in comics ever, that many punches being effective I mean. 1 light speed punch is like the ultimate in comics.

Make sense and I can see what you mean by comics and real world standards.

"Id"
e=mc2, that one punch at light speed would yield tremendous force.

Einstein didn't know shit about physics.

If he were so smart, then why is he dead?

"Id"
Now if Leo strikes a billion times per second, that would mean he moves at 6.6 times the speed of light.

150 million in a second would maybe make someone sneeze. Put them off balance a little.

But that's not how it works in comics ever, that many punches being effective I mean. 1 light speed punch is like the ultimate in comics. I've noticed that when the singular light speed punch is used in a scene, its devastating power is usually attributed to the laws of special relativity being preserved, i.e., an Infinite Mass Punch. The character is utilizing his increasing mass for great power but also greatly suffers from the strain of the approaching infinite mass acting on their body. Hence why it's typically used only once.

Multiple punches where the arms are moving at light speed or when the character is simply flying at light speed should behave the same way but they don't. Likely because the laws of special relativity are being ignored -- by powersets (Speedforce) or out of simple convenience. So the punches do not have anywhere close to the power demonstrated by IMPs and are more akin to a flurry of light jabs because the laws of special relativity aren't being preserved there.

But this happens all the time in comics and is more the norm than anything else, otherwise every time a character flies at near light speed, he is propelling his own near infinite mass forward.

Technically every character should be able to produce the same result with a punch if they can travel at light speed, but as far as I know this has only been attributed to Flash in comics.

And a blitz attack is for whatever reason just a mosquito bites, as opposed to lightspeed punches millions of times. That's comics for ya though.
