A lot of people used to think that Superman flies because of his jumping strength, but anyone who's seen the movies understands that this cannot be true. He changes directions while flying, which is pretty amazing, when you think about it. It's almost as if he has an invisible propulsion system. Also, clearly, he can fly in outer-space, and he doesn't require oxygen to breathe. I think there is virtually no limit or how high Super can fly -- or for that matter -- how deep he can swim!

∙ 11y agoSuperman has been written by many different people over the years. His powers have increased and decreased depending on who is writing him. He has been shown to fly as fast as the speed of sound. Superman Returns the movie took the time to show Superman actually going supersonic and breaking the sound barrier. Meaning he was flying over 750 mph.
Earlier comics had him flying so fast he could approach the speed of light. Other comics had him flying so fast he could travel through time. It all depended on the story and who was writing.

∙ 15y agoIt depends which version of superman? Golden age superman could run faster than a locomotive, later the speed of a bullet (500-2000 m/s) Silver age superman could travel at trans-lightspeeds Modern age superman (1986) could travel at roughly 1% the speed of light Current superman...i think just under light speed or light speed top velocity

Who is stronger and faster than superman?
This question is hard to answer. It has been shown that both have an incredible flight speed, apparantly being able to break the sound barrier, but it's hard to measure. Neo was able to create a vortex behind him in the second movie when he's trying to catch Trinity. Superman would be able to do something similar for Lois or anyone for that matter. The only thing that changes anything is how they get their speed. Superman gets his power from the sun, a fixed source, similar to a battery. Neo gets his from his mind, which is similar to an engine in that it can go faster if you give it more. But is that more powerful to beat the power of the sun? I think it can, but to do so would mean Neo's death. Therefore Superman would have a faster average speed but Neo would have a faster reachable speed.
