Actually it does prove that Lobo is faster than Thor, and it is not the only showing of this nature there are many more showings like this between Superman and Lobo.
Many showings where Superman is announcing his lack of speed to even brawl with Lobo because he is so dang fast and starts calling out for help? I doubt it, mainly because Superman is much faster than Lobo.
"The only thing you have proven is that Thor can fly at fast speeds,"
I didn't post anything for that, so I don't know how I exactly proved it. Although he can enter hyperspace without much trouble in Astonishing Thor.
"in all my years of reading Thor he has never been depicted as having nano second reflexes or speed. He's never blitzed anybody,"
Tell that to Nul as his face got pounded on by multiple Mjolnir strikes mid air, the guy couldn't even touch Thor when he had his hammer in hand.
"in fact what Lobo did to Superman I've seen nobodies with moderate super Strength do to Thor, however I have never encountered Thor taking on someone in that manner because it has never happened."
A manner in which Thor has people faster than him commenting how they are no match for his speed and calling out for help? Ofcourse not, that would be silly.
"That fight with Silver Surfer proves nothing,"
That Thor can apply his speed in a fight to maneuver around someone that more than once has gone sight seeing around the globe in moments, who proceeds to be powerless to actually stop his assault on his master? It's a pretty dang good feat for Thor to have actually done that to the Surfer, sure he got plowed into Mars immediately after but that was after being staggered by his own attack.
"they were not moving at the same speed as Lobo when he attacked Superman."
Feel free to point out the significant difference in speed, because those two are blurring on page while Lobo and Superman aren't being depicted with any sort of speed in that showing.
"I've seen non God's and people lift Thor's hammer and hit him with it despite the magical spell over it"
For someone that reads as much Thor as you claim to do, the enchantment has nothing to do with being a god or not, it's all about the person and bar characters like Mephisto or Zeus, don't quite remember every random guy out there over powering the enchantment without any effort, whether they are a magician or brutes.
", Lobo can do this as well and it would be more in character."
No he can't.
"Thor's BFR tactics rarely work,"
Since when? He BFRed the Sentry in a single punch and knocked Nul into orbit without fail, this all with physical strength.
"and you have never seen him do it easily as I said before Thor is not going to just casually grab Lobo by the collar and cart him up to the sun with little or no effort."
Given some of those bullrushing showings, mostly thinking of him rescuing Rulk from that black hole and out racing Ego in hyperspace without any effort, he could very well do that.
"That BFR tactic is out of character an is rarely used in marvel and even more rare is it's success in actual battles."
Except it isn't out of character and Thor implements it more than enough to have it on his more than likely options table.
"DC characters are seen using this tactic far more regularly, and with greater turn outs."
Nope, BFR is fairly effective in both companies, if anything there are more cheaper showings of BFR in Marvel.
"I don't care how you slice it anybody that can do that to Superman can and will do that to Thor."
I heard Wolverine once was too fast for Thor to tag too, despite Thor in another showing where he effortlessly smacks Quick Silver on his rear, or another where he sends the Sentry away in a punch and so on, but since we both saw this one showing where said character by some miracle acknowledges their inferiority in speed to a character significantly slower than they are, it must be true. Love using the Wolverine example given Lobo is a jacked up cartoony version of Logan anyhow.
"Yeah based off of purely circumstantial feats that he does not consistently use, yet in battles people feel he will despite the fact that he's had his a** handed to him by opponents who are said to be weaker than him. If Thor had all these combat options there would be no villain in Marvel on earth, he could just God blast them all and all Super hero's can retire cause Thor can handle it all."
Written properly, Thor would steamroll a lot of Earth's villains on his own so I can't say I disagree.
"I even read in a battle thread that Thor's God blast can take out the entire Justice league, come on..."
