Well yeah, of course you need to prove they're good. That's what proving your points is, supplying proof of your position.Oh, I was going to show him taking on Jedi Masters and the like.
But obviously I have to Prove they were good....
When this is the only time we see them?
I can show Vader doing tons of stuff. Plenty that make him able to take on chief, Kenobi, batman, and Cap all at once. Gotta give me some time. I have roughly 6 years worth of comics to go through
I mean, self-evidently there's some reason he didn't plow through Red and Gold squadrons at Yavin the way he did the pilots in that comic. One obvious answer, especially given the no-name pilots and lack of time for them to get decent ones after losing everybody Yavin and Scarif, is that he was facing a squadron of inexperienced nobodies with no officers or training who were easy to shoot down.
Ultimately if you show any feats that are well above what we see him do in the movies, you're going to need to have a good explanation for why he performed so poorly in the movies by comparison.
Honestly I'm getting a bit of flashbacks to the days of Stardestroyer.net where it was just "common knowledge" that every single blaster bolt and turbolaser shot in the movies was dialed down to 0.01% of available power for no apparent reason, to accommodate crazy feats from some obscure comic so they could claim a Star Destroyer could one-shot a Culture ROU.
