The Speed Force IS kinetic energy; the "god" of kinetic energy if you will. If it dies, so does kinetic energy.
Superboy was thrown in the SpeedForce and supposedly trapped. There is no indication that the SpeedForce died. Only Jay Garrick said that. For all we know he could have just burned himself and lost his powers.

I find it amusing Superboy Prime absolutely curbstomped Superboy...yet Superman was even with Earth-2 Superman. The main man can't even lose to himself.

It would be nice to see the "S" Family vs the other "S" family someday.
Thats right. Im talking about the Marvels. Or Shazams. 😬
NRAMA: Also, in the issue, Alex Luthor spilled the entire plan, noting that Superboy pounded on the wall to finally shatter the “heaven” that he had placed them in at the end of the last Crisis. Thumbnail sketch – the pounding of Superboy on, essentially, the “wall” of a universe. What did it do to the DCU?
DD: The true ramifications of the “wall pounding” will be seen in the Infinite Crisis Secret Files. What you will soon discover is that following Crisis on Infinite Earths, the one world we were left with was not completely settled and still subtlety resonated with the echoes of the multiple earths. The pounding on the wall of reality by Superboy sent shock waves throughout the universe, slightly shifting timelines and history of those characters that were most affected by the original Crisis.

So no, it isn't just a pure strength thing. More like his strength plus some left over Crisis/Anti-Monitor energy.

I'm sure its more complex than that, but is that the gist of it??
Oh yeah. Shouldn't E2 Superman be at Precrisis levels?? IE, curbstomping modern Superman??
It seems E2 Supes thinks Kal-el is pretty powerful in his own right.
He kept mentioning that our Supes could have stopped everything from the beginning, but has made "bad" decisions.
