Stealing speed.....what a load of baloney. Speed is the result of energy
being used via a process to propel or move. In humans or human type
comic characters this is the very essence of being alive. Are you
claiming that Flash has magic vampire powers that allow him to siphon
off someone's energy and stop or restrict their movement?
Come on "fanboys" define the Speedforce. If its some field of energy
then that exists apart from the Flash then there is no reason why other
comic book characters cannot connect with it & use it.
Simple fact is sunlight moves at lightspeed and it certainly doesn't harm
me (apart from sunburn/sunstroke from over exposure). See, to travel
at lightspeed or faster an energy-form(like the human body) has got
to be intangible like sunlight. So even if we have the Flash travelling
at lightspeed or faster he would be completely harmless to tangible
energy-forms. Like sunlight he would just be deflected.
The Problem is that DC have tried to make all their characters so uber
super that they neglected their character/powers development. The
result is baloney type characters like Flash. The truth is Flash is the
most over-rated comic book character ever to be conceived of. ( or
should that be ill-conceived)
