^ I can't stand that false perception.
In the timeline everyone else operates in, Zoom is insanely fast. Hell, even when Flash became amped enough to operate in the same timeframe as Zoom (which should have negated the natural advantage Zoom has), they were still equals in the speed department.
Bottomline: Zoom is pretty much as fast as it gets.
Originally posted by DesaadThose drawbacks actually protected Zoom when Wally tried stealing his speed. So they're kind of a good thing.
Zoom is crazy fast. His drawback is being unable to utilize the speed force the way that Wally, Barry, etc can.But in terms of speed? Wally needed to basically double his speed to get on Zoom's level.

Being able to slide his own personal time bubble along the 'mainstream' timeline as far forward/backward as he wants (allowing for time travel) makes Zoom pretty formidable... Even without the SF.
Time travel is an ability that he sometimes has and sometimes does not. As I recall, only under Guggs was he ever able to actually travel through time. Prof Zoom certainly can, and can actually change things for good/real, but Zoom himself couldn't under Johns.
He'll never have the versatility that someone like Wally had, the cosmic level of power that Wally could occasionally reach (say, against the Anti Monitor).
But in any sort of race, he's pretty much the fastest guy at either company (even if he has been kind of watered down over the years, by none other than Johns himself).

Anyhow, agree with the rest.

You do realize Vixen stole his speed right? and by stealing it makes him weaker as she did to Superman
How are you doing km, rarely see you around?
As for your comment, she used her cheetah ability during that race and it was never stated that she stole his speed... she asked jay to race and she was in the lead when they got back.

indeed...but im pretty sure her powers are back in check now since she had that face to face with The Spider God

I'm pretty sure she gained those abilities back... especially during that arc.
