    Actually. DC characters can fight at FTL speeds. Guys like Flash, Superman and others have feats showing them moving around and interacting with eachother between femto seconds and nano seconds. Faster than nano seconds usually. Light only travels 300 nano-meters in a femto second. That means characters who have femto second feats are moving far faster than light.

    @l3g3ndarypheonix: "Just because it's a light attack doesn't mean it's light speed" Lol. Denial. He reacted after the attack was fired and still managed to stop it, seemingly without much effort.

    He's stopping it, not deflecting it.

    but you would need to prove that it's light speed the fact that Superman is physically stopping"light" makes me question this

    Check my previous post .

    Superman executes his repertoire of powers in one sequence not fighting precision like Batman and Wonder Woman. His fighting instincts and perception sucks because they are tied to his superhuman abilities in a unfocused manner. Therefore he uses all his powers in tandem to what he perceives prior to actual combat situations. Man, and if he did use focused combat as a blueprint to his superhuman abilities, he's be omnipotently unstoppable.

    Goku is basically this with his powers.

    I think his combat speed depends on what version of superman we're dealing with.
