He's a planet buster in one of his weaker normal human sized forms. Then he goes planet sized.
Orion's no slouch either
not liking orion's odds against asura.
i think he might be faster than asura. not sure. will have to look it up. but it might not matter much since asura uber tough and hits stupid hard, even at his lower levels of power.

IIRC, Orion is generally presented as being on Superman's level

Unless I'm missing something, not in speed. Orion is pretty well screwed here.

Travel speed. Also, was that Post Crisis? Or Pre?
This board generally places Post Crisis Orion as a high end bullet timer / low low level super speedster. Like Thor.

Looking into it, it appears that series was from the 70s
Though I'll note that seems oddly low, considering what tier Orion is supposed to operate at

As noted by Arby's that's travel speed. Also, 'tier' is irrelevant given Thor is in the same 'tier' as Post-Crisis Superman, but is demonstrably slower. Feats consistent with character's presentstion play ... and Orion doesn't have the necessary feats for speed.
Didn't rebirth Orion mess up a whole star system in a fairly recent Green Lantern storyline? As I recall, he got a bit of a buff there in terms of presentation.

Yes, the new Orion is much more powerful than his Post Crisis counterpart. However, the OP states that it's the post crisis version we're using.

Which storyline is this? If there is a reasonably priced ebook I would be interested thanks.
