My Verdict NOT an FTL feat. "

So your ignoring the scan were the Surfer slams Thor into Mars from Earth's orbit? If he was using his senses, he wouldn't have left. He literally went to search a planet for a single person before Strange could finish his sentence.

"There could be more to this feat, but this single page you have presented is not FTL."

Cool. Still depicted faster than the entire DBZ cast.

"Surfer is lightspeed, however he can only attain FTL in HYPERSPACE. Anything that contradicts this is simply BAD WRITING or an Outlier. "

Your acting like hyperspace seperates them from the normal universe. Thor was hopping into it as he was cruising through the Solar System, just as Bill did when he easily went through half a galaxy after he saw his ship. There was nothing flashy about the process and they remained very much in said universe. I know your big on "NO! HE NO FTL!" but yeah, theres a reason why he could nearly snatch omnipotence from Thanos' fingers traveling millions of times the speed of light.

"Thor > SS"

Nope, Fraction literally had the Silver Surfer spending most of his 'fight' with Thor asking the Asgardians to stop and bickering with Thor, there is a reason why he did that. Because Norrin could have beaten him senseless with his damn board on it's own.

He has also go tagged by sub-sonic characters on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. For all the high-end feats, surfer also has his low-end. People like to claim PIS, CIS and bad writing when its the low-end feats though. (When it should also apply to high-end feats within reason of-course )

Yes low ends where he is either extremely weakened, depowered, doesn't even acknowledge the person attacking him as a threat, etc. I'd rather not poke fun at Buu Saga plot holes that imply the Z fighters aren't close to light speed, but rather how this thread is turning into "The Silver Surfer isn't dat fast!" as if he needs to slug it out with the Z fighters in the same moronic way they fight one on one.

He doesn't even need to move to own most of this team, that is what is ridiculous about this thread.

Yes I know. He could have found them in 1 SECOND THOUGH, if he found them on his first 7 1/2 trips around the Earth . (Since Light travels 7 1/2 times around the Earth in 1 Second.)  
Surfer took several seconds, which makes the feat less impressive because a relativistic or light speed character can achieve the same results in that time frame.
In fact he could have found them in less time (e.g. if he knew they would be on land or in the sea, then he could have less area to search thus making the search quicker)

Hmmm I dunno about that. They are dodging Ki Beams which reach the Sun in under 10 Seconds.  
Then there are plenty teleporters there too (Cell, Buu, Janemba).

Its a means of travelling great distances in a short period of time. E.g. Travelling Galaxy to Galaxy or from one end of the Universe to the Other. 
It has different physical laws, which enable people like the Silver Surfer to exceed Light Speed.   

Quote: 
"A dimension accessible from Earth whose physical laws differ from Earth's in the following ways. First, it is possible to surpass the speed of light within hyperspace. Second, hyperspace is "warped" in comparison to Earth's dimension so that the distance between two points in hyperspace might be immensely shorter than the distance between the equivalent points in Earth's dimension. Interstellar travel is impractical for any sentient race that has not discovered the means of traveling through hyperspace in order to reach a destination in their own dimension. Hyperspace is also known as sub-space (which is sometimes confused with the Negative Zone) and warp-space. It is accessible through naturally occurring or artificially created nexuses in space called space warps."

In Regular/Normal space, SS cannot exceed light speed. SS can exceed it using Hyperspace.   Its this simple, its his power-set.  
Or should we, forget about hyperspace and say that he doesn't need it, he is 1000x FTL all the time. Every time he is not FTL its PIS / CIS / Bad Writing etc etc.

Thor > SS may Comic fans would agree with this statement, coz its true.  
Thor is almost always above SS. 
You picked your scans to make SS seem like his more quicker than Thor.  Right here Thor beat him to Earth.

Less than a second, if he was written as he was now, he would have already known Namor wasn't on the planet. Right now his cosmic awareness is jacked to ridiculous proportions and he can literally sense you from light years away.

I don't know where your getting several seconds from. Unless Strange talks much more slowly than I do, I doubt it took more than 5 to say what he did. And unless the Surfer is doing this search by orbit or is tapping into his cosmic senses, he would have a lot of ground to cover with just using his eyes, which is probably what the writer would be implying in that scenario.

"Hmmm I dunno about that. They are dodging Ki Beams which reach the Sun in under 10 Seconds.

I do, no DBZ character could pull off that Silver Surfer feat. Even Goku would have to take a moment to track down said person's ki and IT there, not search the entire planet for a single person by flying around looking for them. That's why they rely on a damn little radar to find the Dragon Balls on a regular basis and it takes them a decent amount of time to accomplish the task. You act like teleportation is something special, the Surfer, along friends here have teleportation feats.

I'm glad they can dodge those Ki beams though, it's not like slow moving pieces of pink goo hasn't jumped them, effortlessly absorbing them, even with some prior warning(in Piccolo's case and Gohan had a pretty solid look at it before he got absorbed too) or Hercule wasn't regular able to perceive their fights during Buu saga. But regardless, I'd rather not poke at those sores on the skin of the DBZ super duper FTL combat that people insist happens over the course of what appears to actually be very long fights, not ones that last under a minute.

http://marvel.wikia.com/Glossary:H#Hyperspace "

I'm not too big on the wikia, when plenty of writers have had absolutely no problems with said characters going FTL and interacting with normal space. It's why Norrin nearly snagged omnipotence from Thanos, was easily out pacing and announcing Galactus' Event that was encompassing entire star systems without slowing in moments, or heck when Norrin was hitting Nova faster than he could actually see him, even easily again escape Nova's sight. That's a character clocked at going trillions of times the speed of light. Heck Nova himself delivered that FTL kick to smash through a solar system barrier.

"In Regular/Normal space, SS cannot exceed light speed. SS can exceed it using Hyperspace. Its this simple, its his power-set.

Even ignoring that Norrin can control the !@#$ing laws of physics, why is Norrin special with dozens of characters in Marvel have no trouble making fun at the light speed barrier? Even current Quick Silver was pulling off Flash themed feats and I think it's fair to say he doesn't use Hyperspace to do so.

"Thor > SS may Comic fans would agree with this statement, coz its true."

No it isn't. Thor didn't do any substantial damage to Norrin at all in their fight. His best hit against Norrin was the headbutt and that caused him to start bleeding. Outside that Norrin was stopping Mjolnir mid swing and spend a good amount of time arguing / insulting Thor, after tanking hits from Mjolnir only to have Thor get pummeled by his board over and over. I mean literally, the only time Thor was hitting him was when he was talking or when he had his back turned. Fraction had him stop fighting entirely to say "Thor your wound!" which prompts Thor to slug Mjolnir into him again. Norrin fired what, two energy blasts at Thor in 3 issues? One Thor tanks in his whacky space armor Odin hooked him up with, which apparently hurt given Thor dialogue.

But you can chalk up their fight to this:

Thor throughout this book showed no superiority to Norrin outside being prompt to attack him when he wouldn't shut up.

"Thor is almost always above SS."

Except over the decades the Silver Surfer has gotten only stronger and is now actually in Thor's weight class given his more recent showings of strength when he's pummeling Bill and stopping Thor's own physical strikes with his arms.

"You picked your scans to make SS seem like his more quicker than Thor. Right here Thor beat him to Earth."

What? Did you not see the page showing them arriving at the destination at the same time?

And they weren't racing to Earth. Norrin has the better travel speed feats as far as I can tell.

Buu isn't considered nigh omnipotent by anyone with half a brain.

Nobody considers Buu nigh-omnipotent. I even know some DBZ fanboys who don't push it that far.

You haven't been reading your DBZ threads enough. *Cough Cough*

*Shutter* Some people don't have half a brain.

is this for real? i can't believe it .

@SilverGalford: Feel free to google "Buu Omnipotent, Anime Vice". Apparently Broly is more powerful than Odin to boot.

I've been in wayyy too many DBZ threads.

Thor is not more powerful than Silver Surfer, let's get that straight here and now.

@Hellos:

That scan is clearly fake (since Buu said he was invincible, not Omnipotent) Man, why do DBZ fanboy think that no one read the manga?

This thread involves DBZ characters, getting things out straight here and now isn't part of the deal.

Because most people are more likely to remember the anime, rather than the Manga. Horde of fan translated scans vs the legitimate stuff.

@Hellos:

That sadly true :(

@Hellos: I'm assuming that was sarcasm?

Take it as you wish, these threads tend to be full of utter nonsense.

Piccolo:im not a yoshi!

Goku:but you said...

Piccolo:its called SARCASM!

goku:what does it taste like?

Piccolo:DAMNIT GOKU!
