Just pointing out that Flash's costume is made out of the speed force that's like saying your clothes is made out of really really fast

also in Kingdom Come Flash at 100% all the time so he's stopping crime and accidents before they even happen. So say you choked on a pretzel, Flash is running so fast everywhere all the time he'd see you and punch you in the stomach to lunge the pretzel out of your mouth. Safest city in America

Hypothetically, what if Flash's enemies got in a room and strung up some razor wire in the doorway and made Flash come to them.

That would kill him probs. Why haven't they done that before?


I guess Flash reflexes and such are on par with his speed. It would be as effective trap to a normal human walking normally into a room and expecting traps as it would for Flash going there in speed of light.

im no flash expert but im guessing time is pretty much stopped when he's moving, so he could just stop, have a good staring contest with the wire, step over it carefully, and still be moving faster than light from hypothetical enemies perspective.

Granted that time is stopped when he's moving, he would still need to see it before he comes barreling in the room at FTL speed. I think it would be pretty hard to notice that even running at a normal human's speed.


His brain processes at that speed as well. Otherwise he'd have gone SPLAT against a wall even at sublight speed. Didn't you read that attosecond bit posted earlier? Flash is an incredibly broken character

But even when humans run as fast as they can, they don't run into walls because they're able to react. They wouldn't be able to see a thin piece of wire at their feet.

I assume Flash has the same kind of reaction a human does except traveling much further, much faster. Unless he has super sight, there's no way he'd see a little thin wire.

What do you mean? He's just moving really fast, not teleporting.

I assume that'd only be helpful if he's going fast enough. I think the wire thing would get him still.

Absolutely nothing. There is literally no reason for any other superhero to exist. The only reason for any other hero to be around is if Superman and the rest of the world are written as complete morons. Not only does he have nearly every power that everyone else has, but he also has plot armor against his only weakness. It's sort of why I hate him. He's so fucking boring.

He should realize Michael Weston is capable of breaking out of any prison. He has to actually kill Captain Cold to stop him, but his moral conscience won't let him.

How can you be faster than instant? It takes literally no time.

Guess how many fucks the Flash gives.
