Because you know it can be done.

I want people to aknowledge Flash can get speed blitzed, lets hear some arguments.

Zoom-uses time manipulation to go fast(i am not an expert) i think he has speedblitz flash

Symmetric Chaos
Zoom
Anyone with the TimeGem and PowerGem
Anyone with the SpaceGem and PowerGem
Strange or Fate with time to get a spell ready
Yuki (because she's just that awsome)

That is a way of thinking no expression

Galvaclaw
Didn't Superboy Prime blitz multiple Flashes?

Loot
Flash can sppedblitz flash, example: wally west speedblitzing jay garrick

Magee
Bart can speed blitz jay and probably every other flash, zoom can blitz wally and every other flash. I would imagine the runner could, aswell as anyone with the time gem. Superboy prime has and im pretty sure Superman has blitzed wally.

So if Zoom only uses time manipulation, and isn't actually faster then you or I, then this feat should have been impossible right?

Hey there,i have been collecting the whole new flash series,and i was thinking maybe there is a point where you go so fast that you will vibrate thru things,i know its a stunt they have used in the past,but are they saying there is a point it will happen without their wanting to? i can see it with bart since its new to have all of the speed force inside you,but has zoom been retconned latley?

I know alot about flash,i know a little about Zoom,although i did read the respect threads

Yeah, Zoom shouldn't be able to time travel like that either. Either Guggenheim didn't do his homework or Zoom got a retcon.

But, see, that implies a biased writer and some CIS on Northstar's part...

Plus, I never said that Northstar could unequivocally speedblitz Flash, I just said that with the element of surprise he might be able to

Don't mean to upset any Flash/DC fanboys, but Northstar is the only non-DC speedster (as in, superspeed is his primary power, not that he just happens to be fast) who IMHO could possibly come close to speedblitzing...

OK I still don't get the thing with Zoom's powers.

If I move my hand from point A to point B and to the world around me it seems that the action takes half a second how does it matter that I percieve it taking a full second?

He basicly does count as a speedster even though it's just manipulation of the relative flow of time.

Superboy Prime

Superboy Prime speedblitzed 3 flashes.

Two words. Comic-book physics. laughing Yeah, it's kinda hard to figure out. But, he can speedblitz Flash.

Makkari and Runner on the other hand, cannot. They are so outclassed in speed it's not even funny. no

I mean that since I believe my statement to be true then I disagree with the argument that others make that Zoom shouldn't be able to replicate what Flash does.

Validus
But it's been stated that Zoom doesn't have all the bonuses that make Flash so great. That was Wally's one advantage over Zoom.

Obviously Zoom doesn't have some of Flash's more incredible powers but he should still be able to replicate anything that is done just using speed.

Validus
But how when Zoom is technically no faster than you or me?

Zoom manipulates time to make it seem like he's going incredibly fast.

He doesn't. He has to manipulate time in order to do so.

So is he even in actual motion? Is it jumping through time rapidly rather than running?

Nobody should be able to blitz the walking Speed Force that is Bart Allen. Hell, I'm not seeing anyone but Zoom that can blitz Wally if he's fully aware.

Bart however, seemed to take Zoom out pretty easily.

Bart however, seemed to take Zoom out pretty easily. I attribute a lot of what he's done or will be able to do, as Bart's creativeness being vastly over Wally's as well.

Hell, he taught Wally a lot of what he knew. Like vibrating through objects and stuff.

I don't know if any of you recall the Impulse ongoing, where Bart learned to fly by waving his legs real fast.

Granted but that isn't the way he's directed his power thus far. Wally's solution for everything was just to push himself to go faster.

"So I settled am I in my role as a spirit... that I have forgotten that fact."

But I dunno...

In the back in the rolecall section, it says emanating from the speed force, he may have the spirits of all the Flash's that proceeded him.

Juntai
Kind of open to interpretation I guess

I was the under the impression that KC Flash was just a Wally who fully embraced his role.

on panel speed feats would more or less qualify him for the task.

(what's this whole "straight line" caveat about? when has Surfer's speed been anything but 1) instantaneous and 2) when has he been anything but extremely mobile?)

From this instance we know SS can move at much greater then light speed, but that was only in a straight line.

You can always move faster in a straight line, then you can when you're zigzagging/fighting an opponent.




Flash on the other hand, can and has achieved much greater then light speed, not just moving in a straight line, but while battling his enemies, or saving the day.


And has Surfer EVER speedblitzed a being as fast as Flash?

Adult Swim Guy
nope!

1) Aurora?

If you're referring to pre-genetic-manipulation Aurora, see the previous comments about Northstar, since their powers were identical before Langowski altered her DNA...

However, post-manipulation Aurora couldn't move nearly as fast (max speed of Mach 1 or so, as opposed to prior max speed of near light...), so the only way she could speedblitz Flash would be to try and stop/slow him with her light photokinesis...

Now, I heard that Aurora and Northstar were recently resurrected and altered by the Hand, and that they've been amped, so in that case she might could do it...but that assumes that Flash doesn't somehow trigger her Jeanne-Marie persona and cause her to spazz out...

2) Runner...not familiar enough to pass judgment.

3) Galactus? Don't know about that one...what are Galactus' speed feats?

4) Strange? Doubtful...unless he were to come up with a spell that shunted the Speedforce from Flash to himself...

5) Surfer...possible, but I have strong doubts...

6) Wolverine????? Not a chance...he's quick, but not nearly quick enough...

7) Nightcrawler...I don't know if he could even 'port close to Flash without Flash immediately running somewhere else...this one could come down to the writing...

Arachnid1
Anyone who stops time and

The Runner.

The runner is one of the fastest beings in comics. He casually speedblitzed Thanos who had the infinity gauntlet. He runs back and forth the universe in a second or two.

Originally posted by Bentley

He can literally "run" many times faster-than-light speed under his own power using only his legs. I'm not sure if he has to wait o get to that level or not but meh.

Also, another person who can speed blitz Flash is Makkari. Over a long-running story arc in that series the Eternal Makkari sought a means to achieve a speed to surpass the Runner. Eventually, Makkari ran against the Runner in a race and won, but at the cost of being stuck in super-speed where only other superfast beings like the Runner or beings with power over space and time could interact with him. This is why the Runner never utilizes the method Makkari used since it sacrificed everything for speed.

TricksterPriest
Neither of those two has anything close to the feats needed to speedblitz Flash. roll eyes (sarcastic)

Which is still retarded. Not saying this about you but I hate to see people spin Deathstroke's showing against The Flash. The way Wally sees the world while running, something like Identity Crisis shouldn't ever happen.

Bentley
Fine, the Surfer then.

Hyperion Prime
Binary maybe able to speedblitz him. She has been clocked faster than the speed of light.

Gladiator was clocked at 100x the speed of light by Reed Richards.

Monica Rambeau (Captain Marvel/Photon) may also be able to speed blitz him.

the average flash can be blitzed but a top knotch Barry or Bart who are borderline/merging with the speedforce, nothing short of a high end reality warper capable of shutting down speed force/something like space gem/time gem is going to cut it imo. Runner wouldn't be able to compete with a Flashpoint Barry or a Speedforce merged Bart.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monica_Rambeau To a top notch flash lightspeed is slow. But I see this isn't going anywhere. Assuming we're having flash moving and thinking as the top notch speedster that he has shown himself to be and ignore thinks like getting wacked by grodd and such nonsense... (Flash would literally feel the blow as it was coming and have time to kiss the fist and walk away...) You would need someone like Runner with a cloaking device to tag him. Or space/time gem. But if your asking Flash and his opponent stand on opposite sides of the field and the goal is to rush the Flash your answer is once again no. Short of using some kind of cosmic/mystical means to negate his speed, you aren't going to speedblitz flash.
