It would suck to be...

It would suck to be the Flash. Sure he can run really fast, but he perceives the world at the same speed. That sucks. Relative to his own perception if the Flash ran around the world, in his mind it would take the same amount of time as it would for me to do it. Thats weeks of his life just running and he does crap like that all the time... thats dedication. I'm surprised he hasn't gone completely insane.

Who else do you think it would suck to be?

Ben Grimm.

I don't think that's how perception works for the Flash at ALL times. Just some of the time...there's varying levels of speed force usage.

* ... to have the mutant power of Rogue...

Pixie.

Lame wings.
Lame powers.
Fractioned soul.

Yea. It's been shown he can perceive at perfectly normal, then either will himself into it or snap in when something fast happens.

Like Galan said, Zoom's the one who has the sucky version 🙂

I think Quicksilver too.

being a mutant without any of the benefit of powers.. thats what jubilee said about a poor human kid that was killed for being malformed with a case of warped gigantism effecting certain parts of his body.

anyways being beak.

mandrill end of thread

Batman. I really like my down time. The smart criminals would catch on and start planning their crimes around new episodes of Mythbusters and when various games are released.

Cyclops - Not being able to take your visor off. Wolverine - a never ending pain from the adamantium skeleton. Deadpool - being scarred like that.

The thing I never got about the Flash isn't his superspeed or perception of time but his stamina! I can accept with his speed power how fast he is but how does he have the energy to go so far? I mean like so I get that you are fast enough to go around the entire world or across the ocean in .0003 seconds but damn how can you keep going that far without stopping or passing out from exhaustion? 😕

I'm sure the answer is Speed force! It always is with anything of his in question but its just always been the one part of the puzzle that never sat well with me. And especially with Zoom. Thou I do like the way his power works much better and I'd prefer it to flash's myself, its one of the powers I'd always wanted as a kid growing up long before I'd ever even read Zoom. To just freeze or manipulate the speed of time realitive to myself in comparison to everyone else.

Still wouldn't have the stamina to go very far without resting for awhile on the way thou! 😬

Doom. Yeah its great your super smart and have your own kingdom but everyone there hates you and your face looks like Freddy Kruegers. And your mothers soul was in hell.

Doop.....Do I have to say anything more?

How about Shithead?

When he met back up with the titans, he was speaking to them like it had been at while when it was basically minutes. That would suck to look through the world through eyes like that.

It's based on choice. He's not always like that. I could deal with it.

Hulk....lol.

The Flash moves a heck of a lot faster then 70mph. How can he chose to not see a blur when running at super sonic+ speeds?

Not trying to be facetious, but can you please explain this with logic? Right now I'm sitting on a bus going to Los Angeles from Arizona traveling 70 mph. As I look out of the window, the ground and plants along the 10 fwy are nearly just a blur because my brain can't process the images that my eye's are sending to it fast enough for me to see them clearly.

he can't. but he's not always running at super-sonic speeds. His perceptions shift to match his speeds.
