jfc. or maybe it's because superman was surprised to see barry allen alive again, because he had been dead for decades before that.

That and they said they were moving sub-light at the time. I think we can give Supes enough credit to assume he can keep up with sub-light foes.

That is the current narrative at DC.

It really isn't.

Lol what? Why is it, that only Superman has different levels, but no one else can push themselves? A race is NOWHERE near as serious for a Flash when their family is at stake.

Except it was the multiverse was at stake and Barry was going as fast as he could.

Flash rebirth is non canon at this point.

Wrong. Happened years ago:

Wally West no longer needs Jesse Quick's speed to be as fast as Zoom. To them, Superman is a statue.

Zoom was never as fast as he was in his original appearance. Kal L oneshotted him under Geoff Johns just a few years later.

"have to reach superluminal velocity!"

THEN superman sees them.

good try though👆

Just read Flash War. It conclusively proves that Wally West is definitely the fastest Flash. Wally >/= Hunter >> Barry >>> everyone else


Its one showing, just as relevant as Superman beating Barry in a race.

Not true. Zoom was so fast, even Wally West could not perceive him or keep up:

At his peak, Zoom is so fast, he could ghost Flash in a fight without them noticing.

Wally needed to steal extra speed from another speedster such as Jesse:

Now however, Wally has gotten fast enough to keep up with him:

Then he instantly pushes past his limitations, which was already multiple levels above when Superman while flying, could not keep up.

Which is why I'd argue if Wally wanted, Superman would be a statue. Which is aligned with what happend:

Wally and Zoom are so fast, not even Barry should be able to react to them imo. Superman shouldn't even be in the conversation tbh.

Just to be clear, these are extreme situations, where the Flash is multiple levels above his regular limitations.


You're an idiot if you think Zoom was always that fast. Bizarro matched him in a race and Kal L oneshotted him. Even Jesse Quick oneshotted him, all under Geoff Johns.

Even in Flash Forward where Wally was wanked to hell, he stated that taking on Superman is suicide.

Wut? They had to go faster than ever just to reach Darkseid and beyond lightspeed.

Which Superman also did BTW.

So is Superman faster than the Flash, or not?

Nope, not even close if flash doesn't want it to be.

Up for interpretation? It looked like the Omega beams were still gaining on them after they passed Superman so they may not have crossed the threshold to beyond light at that point.

This thread ended on the first page. Its no comparison. Flash is far faster.

Wally is definitely faster than Superman(as he should be.) I mean, Tempus Fuginaut outright stated that Wally is the fastest being in the multiverse:

But this thread isn't asking who would win in a race. It's asking if Wally is faster to the point where even a CIS-free/bloodlusted Superman would be unable to perceive or react to his attack.

It isn't up for interpretation though.

off topic question....isnt barry the source/creator of the sf? has it been explained why he isnt the fastest?

He creates it as he runs, but Wally is more in tune with the speed force

Like cover versions of songs which are better than the originals, I guess.

It’s simple, Wally can beat Clark in a race, but make Clark not holding back and wanting to stop Wally at all cost, he will perceived him.

literally stated that nothing slower than light can even enter darkseid's stronghold. flash states they have to reach superluminal velocity.

THEN superman tracks and identifies them.
