    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    From what I know of the Shrike, it gives them a hug.

    That is it's go-to move. Nothing quite like Runner-speed hugs from an indestructible 12 foot tall time-dicking spike monster.

    I've tended to believe Santa was/is more of a reefer man myself...

    I didn't read the entire thread but did anyone account for the fact that Santa goes all the way to Apokolips to give Darkseid some coal?

    Yea DC Santa seems to be able to traverse the entire galaxy or universe in just a couple of nights.

    Same night as his standard December 25th run. Also need to understand that Apokalips or whatever is in another dimension type thing.

    Oh. Though considering he visits him one could assume he visits well...everyone.

    Extrapolating composite Santa's speed is kind of ludicrous, if you take everything into account.

    Santa in Fables visits every house in every world in the Fables Multiverse but he didn't do it on speed. The power of Christmas essentially gives him a single night of omnipresence so he makes one trip that covers literally billions of places.

    A more elegant method I think.

    How does that add in with the math?
    it didn't change any of his math because he said it was over a 24 hour period (the time it takes ALMOST for earth to do a omplete revolution (I say ALMOST, because there is a reason we have a leap year)

    Interesting idea. I ended up posting the calc "Santa is 0.7 speed of light" in my tourney match last week... though it didn't save my ass.
    By the way, nice to see you here
