When I wanted a character to fly, such as the Silver Surfer, I gave him a flying surfboard — perfectly scientific, perfectly understandable, and not the least bit as frustrating as wondering how Superman does it.

She’s gonna — yes, she did! A perfect three-point superhero landing! As Deadpool would say, that’s hard on the knees. If your knees are human, I suppose.
The mines were mentioned in passing last chapter; kudos to those readers who remembed them. 🙂

Well, I’m glad she put at least one to use, ’cause, as you know, a mine is a terrible thing to waste.
Called it!
Damn! I still have to watch Deadpool!
Nice landing indeed.
I would have expected her to be smart enough not to tell him what she was up to. With genocide man speed he could have taken advantage of that information. Much better would be to have lured him into stepping on one of them, and then telling his corpse.
Also, a high jump like that means a long time that she can’t maneuver, so he should have had no trouble hitting her while she was helplessly flying through the air. This guy was supposed to be an elite fighter, not a storm trooper! Excessive use of plot armor there 🙁
Actually, this guy was just given the serum not too long before the battle. No time to train and get use to the speed yet. And Msaka IS fast.
Unless she can fly, gravity determines her speed in the jump. Yeah, this page goes on the “show-off” account, not the “realism”/”hard sci-fi” one.
But you know, I’m fine with a bit of show-off. 🙂
Occasionally the rule of cool applies. 🙂
(Although I *could* argue that since Msaka is cat-like, twisting in mid-air to avoid bullets is something she could do.)
I bought the jump — she’s doing some pretty non (or enhanced) human positions like running on the fence, too.
Heh just like in “Galaxy Quest” 😛
