You can see a blurry figure. In the above example, Superman is a blur while flying into Doomsday, so that is flight speed. Ulik can't see Thor's arm move:
A ceiling fan appears as a blur. That is a far cry from hyperspeed mode where the rest of the world is perceived as frozen during Superman's prolonged interaction with Flash. People here always claim that this or that character would be a statue to Superman. Doomsday should be at least near statue against Superman based on standards here.
And none of this proves that he is anywhere close to Supermans best speed showings or anyone else that is mentioned in this thread. He just isnt. He is quick for his size but he is nowhere near Flash or Superman levels of speed.
Interesting to use hyping lip service and what it means regarding what the writer intended to show. It's clear what Busiek intended to show with Superman vs Thor, but that didn't stop those declaring it a stomp.
Anyhow, the Flash comparison is classic hyperbole and DD's speed is clearly a problem for Superman when he is not in hyperspeed mode. But when has DD shown anything like this:
He overcame the "Fear Parasite" before it was even a concept.

Even in that era Superman could easily operate on the nanosecond level, but he still had to keep increasing his speed just to match Doomsday. It's not that hard to grasp.
Or is this just one of those DC low-balling things?
Let me pull a Darksaint here. Difference is, this is Superman and not Hulk, so I will probably get banned. Anyways, this era Superman did the same exact thing against Shadow Dragon.
"I missed". "I missed again but I doubled my speed...
That's like equating Darksaint occasionally putting a bag of shit on my doorstep to you rolling up in a dump-truck and leaving a t-rex sized pile of shit on my lawn. Several times a week.
Lol... so you're basically saying my post reminds you of a turd? That's what I got from your reply. If I didnt have him blocked, I would show you what I mean. The showing isnt to downplay Superman speed since I did rank him as an elite here but it is to show that Superman have commented on people speed on numerous of occasions. People that isnt high end speedsters like the flash.

What's not to buy? The scene makes it clear what's happening.
May as well call Hulk and everyone who ever commented on his strength a liar.
