Straight line Race
from Earth to the nearest stars and back
Speed reaction
blocking bullets or snatching bullets out of the air (first to do it wins)
Avengers
Team » Avengers appears in 7703 issues.
The Avengers are Earth's mightiest heroes and foremost super-team... "There came a day, a day unlike any other, when Earth's mightiest heroes found themselves united against a common threat. On that day, the Avengers were born - to fight the foes no single super hero could withstand! Heed the call, then - for now, the Avengers Assemble!"
Who is the fastest Avenger?
well if its any Avenger I would say in this order
1. Thor
2. Sentry
3. Ms. Marvel
4. Iron Man
5. Wonder Man
" @King Saturn said:I personally havent seen Sentry excel faster than light... now thats not to say he hasnt... but I know Thor has on a few occasions..."maybe switch sentry and thor around he did stop a gun blowing off the head of a guy while it was pressed against the guys head i believe "well if its any Avenger I would say in this order

" Never figured Thor to be a speedster, given that he doesn't show it..... Ever. "he did a couple of times... but it was way back... like the 70's or 80's I believe...
Quasar has cosmic level speeds

The gun was an inch or two from his head. You don't have to be that fast to stop a bullet, somebody did the math in the other thread."maybe switch sentry and thor around he did stop a gun blowing off the head of a guy while it was pressed against the guys head i believe "
It works out at almost 16,000 mph roughly equivalent to Mach 20 in speed
So its not something Thor or Ms. Marvel are unable to do
Sentry should be faster than most Avengers in a straight line but Reaction time, I believe Quicksilver or Photon might also make it into the top 5
@AtPhantom
said:I think he doesn't blitz because he's either a bit of a numbskull when it comes to pure brains or else Thor follows some warrior-code where he has to meet people face to face in a fair battle and not blitz them...if he blitzed everyone he might not be worthy of holding the hammer" Never figured Thor to be a speedster, given that he doesn't show it..... Ever. "
Some examples of blitzing would be, ripping Ironman to bits before Ironman can react
Smacking heralds when they are attacking him at light speed, smacking other cosmic bricks like Hyperion, classic Drax, Gladiator etc
Reacting to guys like Living Lightning
Giving Superman the fight of his life in a crossover many of you fans call "canon"
JMS Thor run, a bunch of bandits with semi automatic rifles from some place like Kenya open fire on UN soldiers. After the bullet have been fired Thor moves in puts his body in the way of the bullets
While Thor's speed feets are a bit rare, and the number of feats pale in comparison to the feats of Superman and Flash he doesn't have a long list. However Thor's speed feats are still consistent, they are on panel and proven and he can use speed if he really wants to
" @King Saturn said:Thor's flew at 3x the speed of light already. I don't remember Sentry coming anywhere close yet."maybe switch sentry and thor around he did stop a gun blowing off the head of a guy while it was pressed against the guys head i believe "well if its any Avenger I would say in this order

yeah but flight speed=/=fighting speed.
yeah but flight speed=/=fighting speed. "And? The OP stated that it'd be a straight line race from Earth to the nearest star and back. Nothing about fighting.

True. Although, reaction speed is usually the speed one associates with fighting.
" @AtPhantom said:I never figured Thor's Fighting-Skill to be so average, guess the Vikings don't really have many fighting styles beyond club-you-to-death" I think Sentry beats Thor in speed. "Nope.
"
BTW what comic did you get that scan
True. Although, reaction speed is usually the speed one associates with fighting. "But just because you can react to something doesn't always mean you can move as fast as what you reacted to. I'd say Thor also has better reaction speed than Sentry, though.
" quicksilver is faster than iron man "No he's not.Quicksilver's current top speed is Mach 5,Iron Man's top speed in his current series is unknown but in his Extremis Armor it was Mach 8.5.
" The correct answer would be..... 1.Quasar 2.Photon 3.Thor 4.Sentry 5.Iron Man "In race or in fighting speed?
" @Vance Astro said:I got my order mixed up.Quasar and Thor are FTL,Photon moves at light speed,Sentry moves at high mach speeds.Mach 15-20 maybe above that,and Iron Man moves at Mach 8.5." The correct answer would be..... 1.Quasar 2.Photon 3.Thor 4.Sentry 5.Iron Man "In race or in fighting speed? "
I agree with Vance, the Avengers Thor, Quasar and Photon are up there
Binary would also be there (Ms Marvel's strongest form)
I'm not sure who has the fastest reactions, Thor is a fast hero doesn't have too many reaction feats, he's not like Superman who normally snatches bullets out of the air
I believe Photon can easily re-act at light speed but because she is electromagnetic energy she does not fly beyond light speed
" @czarny_samael said:Ok, but my question is:" @Vance Astro said:I got my order mixed up.Quasar and Thor are FTL,Photon moves at light speed,Sentry moves at high mach speeds.Mach 15-20 maybe above that,and Iron Man moves at Mach 8.5.

Are You talking about flight or fight speed?

" what makes Photon and Quasar faster in Flight Speed than The God of Thunder... "Thor doesn't really fly, the hammer helps him fly. Thor only goes FTL by holding onto the hammer as it drags him
" what makes Photon and Quasar faster in Flight Speed than The God of Thunder... "Photon isn't faster than Thor but Quasar may be.Photon isn't FTL she's right at light speed.
" @King Saturn said:I dont understand how this pertains to what I am saying here... I was simply asking what makes Photon and Quasar faster than Thor in terms of Flight Speed... this has nothing to do with the means of how Thor actually flies... even if Thor cant Fly under his own power... he still can indeed Fly FTL with the Hammer and we know Thor keeps the Hammer with him pretty much all the time..." what makes Photon and Quasar faster in Flight Speed than The God of Thunder... "Thor doesn't really fly, the hammer helps him fly. Thor only goes FTL by holding onto the hammer as it drags him "
" @King Saturn said:alright... then how come you have Thor at Three on your list... and Photon at Two... when Thor has been able to excel Lightspeed in Flight" what makes Photon and Quasar faster in Flight Speed than The God of Thunder... "Photon isn't faster than Thor but Quasar may be.Photon isn't FTL she's right at light speed. "
" Photon isn't FTL she's right at light speed. "Good answer
This explains why Photon can't beat Thor's top speed
However she might have a faster reaction time than Thor
" @BIackFlash said:makes a joke of quicksilvershe might have a faster reaction time than Thor "Why? How? "
reacts and travels from the sun to earth by truning into a gamma laser
literally catches bullets
makes a joke of Spider-Man's speed
searches every inch of the oceans in minutes
So quickly that Marvel react that others seem frozen in place

"Daredevil isn't an avenger. And Daredevil doesn't react before something happens. He reacts as it happens because of his enhance senses. Spider-man has an "early warning" sense. "It also stated that Spider-Man reacts 15 times faster than humans. If the reaction time wasn't there, that wouldn't have been stated.
Daredevil isn't an avenger. And Daredevil doesn't react before something happens. He reacts as it happens because of his enhance senses. Spider-man has an "early warning" sense. "That's not my point.My point is knowing what someone will do before they do it is an aid.It doesn't have anything to do with reaction time itself.Daredevil DOES react before something happens.I've seen him locate a sniper from a window 3 blocks away and move him and his wife before shots were fired.His wife doesn't have peak human reflexes and speed like he does so it's obvious he realized there was a shooter way before hand.Not to mention he had no idea there was a sniper after him.
