What you're suggesting is throwing away feats every time a character changes writers. That's bullshit and you know it. They all handle them differently. It doesn't make previous in-continuity events any less substantial.
Like, when the writer had Superman fail to speed over and catch a bullet, suddenly he can't do that anymore? lmao.OH, BUT ITS SUPPORTED AGAIN ON PANEL.
In Amazons Attack. He couldn't stop a whole group of people from getting gunned down!
You're acting like someone's trying to pull feats from the 60s and 70s, like Thor and Hulk fans do.
Flash's bigger feats, are all still fairly recent in memory, and are still continuity.
Unless I'm mistaken, he's talking about tossing out feats that no longer fit in with how the characters being written rather than tossing them out because of the portrayals of a single writer. That's probably why he was asking for recent feats of the Flash rather than other feats from the same writer.
It's not that big of a stretch if you think about it, Nova's first appearance with the entirety of the Nova force at his disposal had him knocking Firelord and Airwalker across the solar system wtih a single blast simultaneously and Supernova's showings with the Full Nova Force had him taking on Thor, Quasar, Firelord, and others at the same time, but Richard's showings throughout and after Annihilation didn't really put the Nova Force anywhere near that level. So which showings do you consider more valid in a discussion about Nova w/full Nova Force, the old stuff that's still in continuity or the more recent showings in and after Annihilation? Did Surfer really own someone who was powerful enough to take on Thor, Quasar, and Firelord(or even just Firelord and Airwalker) at the same time?
