@lvenger:
1.Where was this scan placed? Whenever I see it, I hear - sooner or later - that this story was placed in Pre-Crisis reality, which is my reason why I don't belive Superman is planet level.
2.No, because Gladiator's is made by all-knowing narrator, while Superman's is made by Manhunter. I know MM's abilities. If Manhunter would use his tech to check that or if this would be Ganthet (for example) who would claim that, I wouldn't have problem with it. The thing is, Reed Richards when is basing his opinion by his tech, is reliable. But when he talking out of hand about others, he makes statements like ones about Sentry having power of millions of exploding suns, in time when he clearly doesn't have access to that kind of power. And narrator's words are fact as long, as we can prove it isn't.
And if You think I am lying to win the debate, look at this:

Kid Gladiator is claiming that he have seen Kallark ripping black hole apart. It would probably be the best strength feat we have ever seen, better than Classic Drax destroying a star. If I would just want to win the debate, I would post this in first place. KG's words are actually more reliable than Martian's because he is saying that he saw that things happening, Martian's are just describing a possibility. IMO neither matters, because we can bring a lot of that kind of statements that were poven wrong (Richards's words about Sentry, Surfer's about Galactus, Thor's about Odin). Yeah, there was some retcon to Thor's words made by Kubik showing Kosmos the universe and explaining definition of omnipotence in Marvel Universe, but I wouldn't go that far to give more credibility to Thor or Surfer. Either way - characters words can't be used as a a prove and if we would belive them, Gladiator would still be superior to Superman.
3.Again: You're agressive in Your posts. My answer in this way of talking ( I don't like it, I don't see the reason to be rude, but if You insist...): You lack of abilities to debate about points made in this thread. You don't understand certain points and You don't know what You're talking about. You're taking my words out of context and that is one of reasons why You are tottally losing this debate.
-You didn't prove that Superman used nanosecond reaction in battle.
- I didn't compare Superman's speed abilities to street level. I have compared blur feats to street levelers, because they also have that kind of feats. Don't twist my words.
-You're basing Your opinion about Superman's nanosecond reaction based on 2 (You're saying 3, but I still didn't saw that scan) out of battle situations, which is just 2 times more that kinds of feats than Gladiator has. How many times larger is number of Superman's appearances compared to Gladiator's? I belive that much more than 2...
- Gladiator has more speed feats, we're talking about their max power.
- We're NOT talking about Superman's character, I don't recall myself talking about this is THIS thread. You're messing with our debates.
@darkbeam: That planet feat is Gladiator repeatedly punching and using Heat Vision on a weak died out planet. That isn't impressive.The 2nd feat Superman can do easily as well
Not heat vision, he was looking for empty planet. And prove that Superman can actually do the same.
@darkbeam: I'm not saying Superman beats him easily, I consider Gladiator to be a very good match up for Superman amongst the pantheon of Superman clones that they are. But I don't think Gladiator can take a majority against Superman. The first feat was done in multiple punches and is honestly something Superman could replicate but he lacks the on panel showings to do so and thus that statement cannot be substantiated. The latter feat is a simple straight line blitz and Superman has plenty of those feats to speak of.
How he can replicate it, if he never done anything like that? Even if we would his pulling feat as a cannon one, it still isn't punching feat. He never done anything similar. Closest thing is Superman koing himself by destroying Dark Moon. If he would be able to do so, he would just fly on that moon and punch it 4 times to destroy it. He didn't, according to himself, he had to use flying at top speed tactic to achieve his goal. Superman has to have more feats, for gods' sake! He is DC's top hero, while Gladiator is jsut some C-lister when it comes to popularity (at best C-lister)... Seriously!
