Flash didn’t travel back in time, he traveled forward in time till the ultra Sonic form ran out.

[@tristanwaits4584]

YOURONLYMATE, Wally went FORWARD in time to when Sonic's Ultra form ran out.

[@Avarith]

That what happened ? It's was really confusing but I prefer that he went forward in time instead of backward. I still lost in the end but I understand more why now.

[@rodrickgoldberg2324]

Over Head Yeah, definitely didn’t help that the punch had a space background instead of the “zone” background.

[@phibbykaden]

Come to think of it, yeah. I'm pretty sure they suggested as much during the final rundown.

[@richardbanibensu3046]

I wonder how Wally even knew ultra sonic had a time limit. I guess the most logical reasoning is that he took a risk.

[@grapejuice8595]

No, he went back to when Sonic was about to become Super. You can tell because of the emerald Sonic id grabbing.

[@crichie21]

Some people are going to say death battle is biased towards sonic but they do their research right. And this is coming from a sonic fan

[@andrew_TTv]

finally someone who doesn't complain, I love sonic too and at first I was pissed all my respect towards you bro

For anyone that has doubts search up the Q&A from the Research Team's blog post, type in Google "ultraguy flash vs sonic q&a blogspot" and its the first result, it will explain more in-depth why Sonic lost.

[@Silent_Fool]

When Wally destroys the emerald and punches Sonic. It changes Sonic’s appearances from games, comics, cartoons and the greatest Sonic original character of all time, Sanic.

[@csk7769]

The trans-time feat was done only with the kinetic energy from the earth, Wally didn't actually use the Speed Force for it, so it's actually less than he can do on his own. He has also gone faster than that by himself on other occasions

[@monke1419]

Yeah, plus he probably didn't even really need the Earth to start running. I mean let's keep in mind that he was also talking speed from tons of planets that were light years away. He has a massive abundance of speed to siphon.

This Fight was freaking NUTS!!! Also I,m I the only one who finds that death Disturbing? BUT STILL THIS FIGHT WAS AWESOME!!! It's like they took Ben 10 vs GL, Goku vs Superman, Chuck vs Segta, and Beerus vs Galaxia Fused in one! This is gonna be in one of my favorite Death Battles of all time!!!

[@rodrickgoldberg2324]

Yeah, I don’t understand why they did that for Sonic’s death. It’s like he hit every Sonic in existence at once.

[@richardbanibensu3046]

Yeah I actually feel for Sonic. Didn't think he'd just implode like that

[@crichie21]

The wrath of the sonic fans emerged

[@corryjamieson3909]

The dislikes are actually pretty low compared to the likes

[@swagjames6458]

Remember when Ben Singer said on Twitter that "some won't like the outcome?" Yeah, SOME is kind of an understatement! I know A LOT of people are gonna be really pissed at this outcome!

[@SuiteBid]

They'd be upset either way. It really doesn't matter who wins. If anything due to Flash being more well known compared to Archie Sonic's niche fanbase (not the one's who read it to enjoy it, but rather the one's who really just care that he's strong) if Wally lost there would probably be more outrage. Personally, I could care less who won. I read both comics, though I prefer Wally's Flash run over Archie Sonic mostly because it's written better character-wise, in my opinion. Even so, I was actually expecting Archie Sonic to win, if only because I thought they'd actually use the whole fate aspect.

[@isaacghidey1180]

Did you notice how they used sound effects from the Sonic games for Sonic's attacks and techniques? That was such a nice touch!👍

[@LughSamildanach]

He went FORWARD in time. Slow it down and look as Wally moved through time. You can see sonics form running out.

[@NuclearSlimeNS]

I did like that detail.

[@richardbanibensu3046]

Wonder how Wally even knew Sonic had a time limit though.

[@raykreiger4123]

They talked about him getting some not total precognition of past and future events from the speed force, knowing that it was the only way to beat sonic, he made his move and jumped into the time stream

[@jewellslofton973]

@@raykreiger4123 yeah

[@csk7769]

Wally has shown cosmic awareness on multiple occasions, is on a baseline smarter than Sonic, and has much more impressive perception feats that he usually uses in the comics to think about a battle and come up with a plan. It's the Gamera thing, except Wally is so fast he could use it in battle instead of having it be a weakness

[@calebcardinal3867]

now that i look back on it he did go forward into time, sonic without knowing what had happened assumed he wished wally away and let his gaurd down, and thats when wally came out of the time stream

[@derrickhaggard]

Awesome reaction. And this was an awesome fight. And we all knew Winter Soldier vs. Red Hood was going to happen sooner or later especially as a live-action battle.

[@jacobfrye7647]

bruh there are examples of marvel beating DC. Ghost Rider vs Lobo, Spiderman vs Batman, Green Arrow vs Hawkeye, Wonder Woman vs Rogue and etc

[@thenerd-bot9847]

Oh good! Someone else who initially thought that it was Barry in the Justice League cartoon!

[@suprakn1ght7y24]

I had this Natsu vs Ace feeling that Wally would lose but I’d still stick with him. I felt relief when Wally won.

[@MrAuthor3DS]

Heh, I kinda predicted the winner from the amount of dislikes at the time - 1.2K dislikes to 8.8 likes. Hey, my KZbin experience is that any number of dislikes that equals at least 10% of the like count is sizable.

[@jewellslofton973]

[@highlandave8507]

You don't remember the 80's movie Coneheads?

[@jacobulbikas1016]

There's a possibility he could have went forth through time and waited until the forms were used up, just like they mentioned in the episode. Notice how Sonic's in the same place and not back at the Cosmic Interstate.

[@darryljc5340]

How will he have known that they run out?

[@jacobulbikas1016]

Darryl JC they have a time limit or Sonic could have just given up

[@rodrickgoldberg2324]

Darryl JC He didn’t. He just made note of how Sonic said they were invincible in those forms and kept going forward until Sonic wasn’t invincible.

[@majoraplays6159]

Not a fan of DC or Sonic, but this was an awesome birthday gift. I got to see such an overrated and overhyped character die. Only way this could have been better is if good ol' Sailor Moon herself fought and won today

[@melvingenao550]

Archie sonic is definitely overhyped garbage. This death battle exposed that hype. Koed by a wormhole lmao

[@jewellslofton973]

@@melvingenao550 definitely

[@hybridepsilon2099]

Personally i wouldn’t say Wally outracing the black racer is a fate breaking feat The black racer is the SPEEDFORCE’S concept of Death, not the DC universe’s as a whole, since Wally can outrace the Speedforce it’s only natural that he can out do the black racer like that. At Most, The black Racer is an aspect of Death, not the real deal. And even then Outracing death only amounts to Conceptual Manipulation at most, Not Fate hax. There’s no comparison between these two instances

[@HALberdier17]

Correction it is Black Flash. Black Racer is the concept of Death for the New Gods. Nekron is Black Lantern Corps. Death of the Endless is for everyone else. Though in some stories Black Flash, Black Racer, and Nekron are all different aspects of Death of the Endless but Neil Gaiman disagrees with DC on that one.

[@hybridepsilon2099]

Douglas Show Black flash, as in that’s guy Wally outraced? that’s the Speedforce’s concept of death? If so, thanks for the correction, i must have gotten them mixed up

[@HALberdier17]

@@hybridepsilon2099 Yes, Black Flash is the Speed Force concept of Death. Though I can see why you got them confused in the New 52 storyline Darkseid War when the Justice League became gods, Flash became the God of Speed by becoming the new Black Racer. But after they defeated Darkseid they gave up their powers.

[@hybridepsilon2099]

Douglas Show Well thanks for clearing that up for me, it’s been a while since i’ve read comics, and i may have forgotten some things lol

[@linkfan6555]

Why does time travel in these fight piss me off so much?

Atleast this time was forward and not backward.

It’s weird, I’m definitely more of a fan of Wally then I am of sonic but this fight just left a bad taste in my mouth.

But Wallt didn't simply kill him. He erased him as a concept from the universe.

@@LittleZbot right

[@javiereduardocarrillocastr6826]

No, they slightly alter fate to ensure he survives and/or wins, which is not as effective as it sounds since he's been beaten/killed before (Sonic 06 happened in Archie, including Mephiles killing him).

@@Avarith basically that he has an opinion on sonic as a character... Childish opinion, yes, but an opinion.
