    i'm pretty sure there is a comic somewhere in which he explains thsat he thinks taking the hit would stop further damage to the area around him or something. Either way, he just doesn't dodge. he mostly blocks.

    I think in the DC universe, Superman isn't really like, ridiculously powerful (at least anymore). He is pretty weak against magic, and there's any number of people who can cut off his power source. He's just a leader figure because of the person he is, not because he's the strongest.

    of course now we have to worry about what happens if the Flash does PCP

    I have that issue. No, seriously, I do. It's real.

    Can flash move so fast that he is literally everywhere in the universe at once?

    I haven't kept up with the new 52, but he was when last I did. And not by a small margin. Like, still able to move planets and stuff, still above average intelligence, and still knows several martial arts.

    But he is the leader figure because of who he is and now how powerful he is. he just happens to also be the strongest. He did recently beat up a literal god in the new 52, so he's still probably ridiculously powerful.

    No, now he's Super "I can read every medical text ever with my superspeed, time to operate" man.

    Superman isn't ridiculously overpowered anymore, but he's still pretty ridiculous. He could totally beat Goku. Flash though? No chance.

  • MeldingMelding Registered User regular
    he is exactly as powerful as the plot needs him to be.

    that's why you shouldn't write stories that test his abilities. you should write stories that test his character.

    The goku vs. superman argument is fundamentally flawed though because they'd never fight for real, they're both too good to want to fight another good person. At most they'd have fun sparring. With their dicks.

    Yeah I have no idea what's going on in New 52. I kinda liked it more when he was less all-powerful. They could bring in dudes like Ion or whatever for ridiculously strong stuff and Superman could just be an awesome dude and not have to solve every problem.

    Well, they still need Ion for like, Superman Prime if he's still around. i hope to god he isn't but if he win, he's a more super superman, so you need at least 2 supermen to beat him.

    If time machines existed would that mean that all points in time and space should theoretically be filled with time machines? Or does the infinite nature of both time and space, divided by itself collapse down to a singularity so that only one time traveler can exist in one universe at any one time?

    Strength: Pretty strong.
    Speed: Pretty fast.
    Intelligence: Farmboy with a degree in investigative journalism. None of that "check out these life-like Superman robots I made" type schtick.
    Character: Mr. Rogers.

    I thiiiiiink with the way physics works, if Flash were to actually achieve lightspeed, this would be true, but only from his perspective

    I could be wrong

    and I'm also not sure if he can actually achieve that speed

    I think he can only approach lightspeed

    If he moved that fast, he would enter the Speed Force.

    I think the Speed Force is the way they get around answering questions about physics.
    The Kingdom Come flash is similar to the "everywhere at once" thing though. He can never slow down so he just runs around the city fixing things.

    edit: It's not Kingdom Come maybe? I can't remember which Elseworlds it is though

    It's real. In like a month I'll be back home from school. I will dig it out of the box and take some pictures.

    It's the issue where Iris dies. That's all I remember.

    also the story's title was a reference to an art film notable at the time for its frank depiction of sex and sexuality

    That's why God-Emporer of Dune sucked. Your protagonist is both literally a god and completely amoral. Even he was bored with it.
