Is this Superman sans-PIS?
If it is, it'll be a lot harder since he can travel at 99% the speed of light in the earth's atmosphere...

What IS "The Force"?
I'm curious; I'd posted this question in another thread, but it was moved to a different forum and subsequently sunk under 4 pages of posts. What is "The Force" and how is the manipulation of it possible by single celled organisms in the bloodstream? Is "The Force" mystical in na...

Re: The Force vs. everything else from every other known fic
Why is it that certain folks will submit to full suspension of disbelief for the Force, but if anything from another fictional universe so much as slightly bends a law of physics it's analyzed all to shit? Perhaps it is because using the Force is tapping into some kind of universal power, rather th...

It doesn't matter, Spider-Man can have a reaction speed of 0.000000000000000001 seconds, and it still won't matter, he still sees an attack coming AFTER it has been launched, where as the whole idea of precog is that the Jedi can see the attack BEFORE it has been launced. Why do you have so much tr...

Thats a garbage excuse. To be fair. Punisher crossovers are probably the best (at least those written by Garth Ennis) in that they show how common sense and ingenuity can beat super-powers. This is easily explainable by the fact that Ennis actually dislikes superheroes in general and actually prefe...

Precog and Reflexes
Yet the Jedi have shown they have the reflexes to adapt to most situations with Pre-cog. I thought this needed addressing in its own thread. Fortunately for Jedi, the force enhances their reflexes. Unfortunately, that still doesn't mean that precog = reflexes. Having precog equate to reflexes (whic...

I don't care how good Arthas' reflexes are, they cannont be faster than those of a person who can see things before they happen. Unfortunately, this seems to be quite a common logical fallacy. Precog != Reflexes Precog = Preparation. If a normal human had precog and could see 1 second into the futu...

Fine KK what is to keep a jedi from using TK which Ben CANNOT gefend against to pick him up and slam him into things? This once again comes down to who can react faster when confronted. If we assume that confrontation is instantaneous (w/ bloodlust mode in full force) then we would also have to ass...

No, you are refusing to acknowledge evidence. You're talking about a universe where everyone and his brother can survive for years in combat against machine-gun armed opponents while wearing spandex, even if they're not bulletproof. This applies to 90% of comic books in general, not just Marvel. Al...

Would the Jedi know to rip the web shooters off before SS can fire? If they both see each other at the same time (via instantaneous teleportation and are in bloodlust mode, barring force chokes on the Jedi side) it comes down to who can react faster. So the crux becomes who can react faster in the g...
