Though, frankly, I'm not sure why we're talking Surfer when Sentry is clearly and impeccably stronger than him as far as Marvel Superheros go. He's basically immune to any assault by the power cosmic and infinitely powerful (he even surpasses a lot of surfers abilities, like how Surfer can't resurrect the dead with his life manipulation but Sentry can etc). I'd say of guys who are consistently under the "hero" definition, Sentry is the strongest Marvel hero and Flash is the go to "beat any big bad" DC hero (like how the Flashes were the only guys who could beat Superboy Prime).

Somewhere on the first 7 or so pages of this thread someone posted all of his powers explaining the silver surfer dillema.
Assuming of course he is on his board

I said godlike beings are out. Silver surfer out. When I said "Flash as the speed of force" I was assuming that whoever wrote that before me was talking about some other flash than the standard DC comics one.
Has the standard one travel through time at some point? (I don't read dc too much) If so, I would exclude him too and leave only quicksilver. He didn't bend time once.


Flash literally ran to the end of time before (to escape the Black Flash, who he became because the Black Flash was the speed force and blah blah comic book explanations are weird).


God damned, seriously?
I mean, are the scenewriters are out of ideas for a comic book stories which aren't blown out of proportions?
Ran to the end of time?
...
It's ...
eh

So, the green goblin was resurected how many times already?

First of all his power does not require him to be in contact with his board, that's just the movie version. Second, yes he's very powerful but he's not a godlike being in any way, which is why he's perfectly suited for this contest. If you're going to declare that he's a godlike being, the least you can do is present us with an argument.

4. Thor
5. Silver surfer?

I wont put Hulk in there because limitless strength is useless without some sort of cosmic power, i mean the rest just go out in the space and rain shit down on him or trap him in some kind of bullshit


I agree with Flash 100% as the strongest as him alone without any tools and befitting the category of a superhero.

Just a question though, what Thor are we pertaining to? I mean I'm not bashing the hero per se just that the Thor in the movie is the Thor, son of Odin. But isn't it in the comics that Thor is actually a mortal who was deemed worthy by the hammer to become Thor. I use mortal because Beta Ray Bill managed to use the hammer effectively becoming the entity known as Thor as there is only one Mjolnir per universe.

Anyway, using that premise of the hammer granting the powers of Thor to the mortal, if the hammer were to be separated from Thor for more than a minute, he would revert to his mortal form would he not? (Infinity Wars/Gauntlet battle with Thanos).

I'm just clarifying for everyone's knowledge and enlightenment. The reason why I bring this up is, if what I said is what defines Thor, then effectively that negates his usefulness without his hammer would it not? Kind of like Silver Surfer without his board.

Please clarify also, would both be able to fly (theoretically at their maximum speed) without their respective items?

Thor was always a God - he was placed into the body of Donald Blake by Odin, but that's not his original form and the Blake persona has been stripped from Thor in the past. I'm not sure what his current status is, but he has many times been able to remain Thor without his hammer. Regarding the Silver Surfer, it's only the movie version who needs his board for his powers, and the movies are non-canon. The Silver Surfer from the comics certainly does not need his board for his power, and would destroy Flash without breaking a sweat.


Ok, i get the continuity then for thor. But for surfer doesnt he lose the flight-speed thing if he's not on his board? I am open to corrections on this as i know im not an expert per se on all heroes.ü

I dont think surfer is considered a god though but a cosmic being, less than a celestial.

Goku. Gogeta if he counts (probably not because it's a fusion) I guess. Like, at the end of GT he's actually just strong enough to destroy the entire universe if he wanted to.

Edit: Oh and I forgot to mention that the longer a saiyan fights, the stronger he grows, so, yeah.

The surfer has been shown to be able to fly without his board in the past, but I don't recall seeing him go as fast (I might be wrong). That's still irrelevant though, since he retains his reaction time, which is more than fast enough to blast Flash into oblivion, send him into a black hole, remove the air from around him, shrink him to the size of an ant, etc. etc. before Flash can even come close.

Sentry i think almost counts as a celestial on the same level with galactus and watcher right? He was allowed to be in attendance of their meeting for the battle with thanos with tribunal present as well as eternity/infinity.

He would surely beat surfer as he is immune to the power cosmic. That at least i would agree, i just dont know where or howto place him though. He is human but is he still mortal? I dont know much about his lore beyond that which ive stated.

What makes you think this? Flash is fast enough to act on Super Prime, how is Silver Surfer somehow cosmically better than him?

Also, as if Flash needs air to live (He's literally ran into nothingness), or is if a Black Hole would beat him. Silver Surfer, in all iterations, is always shown as having to do some gesture or action to make things happen. It's not like he's infallibly omnipotent and everything he ever wants happens at will with no thought or delay. I think you're really overblowing the Silver Surfer.

About the flash... He's DC right? but in Marvel, correct me if I'm wrong, I remember their being a mutant (bad) that could absorb kinetic energy and not take damage from it so if the Flash punches him it won't do anything right?

Flash has lots more abilities than punching someone.

Also, generally any "absorption" powers are always done in by overload.

I believe you are thinking of Quasar, the latter attended the meeting with the abstract beings regarding Thanos and the Infinity Gauntlet only because he was Epoch's champion.
Most people believe the Silver Surfer would clearly defeat Sentry, since Sentry has never achieved anything on panel that would put him on SS's level. He got stalemated (well, he technically got beat) by World War Hulk and the Terrax he defeated was only a pale copy of the Terrax of the 1980s and 1990s. Since when is he immune to the power cosmic?

Absolutely nothing indicates that Flash is faster than the Silver Surfer when it comes to reaction time. Even without his board, the Surfer would therefore quite easily defeat Flash with the power cosmic. Again, the Surfer is more powerful than Flash in every single other department, and has displayed speed feats at least equal to Flash's. See this Silver Surfer respect thread.

Ok, i get the continuity then for thor. But for surfer doesnt he lose the flight-speed thing if he's not on his board? I am open to corrections on this as i know im not an expert per se on all heroes.ü

I dont think surfer is considered a god though but a cosmic being, less than a celestial.

The surfer has been shown to be able to fly without his board in the past, but I don't recall seeing him go as fast (I might be wrong). That's still irrelevant though, since he retains his reaction time, which is more than fast enough to blast Flash into oblivion, send him into a black hole, remove the air from around him, shrink him to the size of an ant, etc. etc. before Flash can even come close.


What makes you think this? Flash is fast enough to act on Super Prime, how is Silver Surfer somehow cosmically better than him?

Also, as if Flash needs air to live (He's literally ran into nothingness), or is if a Black Hole would beat him. Silver Surfer, in all iterations, is always shown as having to do some gesture or action to make things happen. It's not like he's infallibly omnipotent and everything he ever wants happens at will with no thought or delay. I think you're really overblowing the Silver Surfer.

Absolutely nothing indicates that Flash is faster than the Silver Surfer when it comes to reaction time. Even without his board, the Surfer would therefore quite easily defeat Flash with the power cosmic. Again, the Surfer is more powerful than Flash in every single other department, and has displayed speed feats at least equal to Flash's. See this Silver Surfer respect thread.


In the DC Universe, Flash is the fastest being in existence, excluding the omnipotent (Like Superman Prime etc). Why do you persist in saying Silver Surfer is faster with no frame of reference? Is he legitimately the fastest being in the universe in Marvel?

I've always liked Thor but I dunno much about comics or who has defeated who in the past. Funny because I used to work in a comic shop. Though I hated all the nerdgasm arguments about who can beat who especially when they started providing "proof" for why that's so.

Maybe I should watch the Thor movie. hmm
