Hi

Awesome

[@kingshadow8782]

🤘🏻😎👍🏻

[@1234tin]

Can you add The Runner I think he is one of the fastest and most underrated speedster

[@insanemakaioshin]

My list: 10. Makkari 9. Nova 8. Captain Marvel (The Imposter: Carol Danvers) 7. Silver Surfer 6. Supergirl (stated to be just as fast & strong as her cousin.) 5. Superman 4. Barry Allen 3. Wally West 2. Shazam (The Real Captain Marvel; has the *speed of Mercury, also known as Hermes.* He has casually out sped Barry Allen on one occasion, as mentioned in the video.) 1. Wonder Woman (Wonder Woman's strength & speed are restricted by her bracelets. Once removed her true stats emerge. In older comics, *she beat Hermes, the fastest of gods, in a race.* )

One of the most impressive feats of superspeed was when Flash evacuated an entire city by grabbing and moving the 500,000 inhabitants to safety 35 miles away one by one, sometimes two at a time, all during the explosion of a nuclear bomb. (Edit: people have been contradicting each other in the comments as to which Flash did this, Barry or Wally. Since I couldn't find out which one it was, I'll just leave it at "Flash" 😉)

The only placement on this list that I sort of disagree with is Nova. I feel like he can be called faster than Captain Marvel purely due to his ability to not only fly at the speed of light, but also create portals. They have effectively the same travel speed (one may be slightly faster), but Nova can also teleport. Other than that I agree with the list completely.

[@stevesweeney5173]

Surfer has travelled so fast he went back before the Big Bang of 616. He even went back to before the Big Crunch took the previous Universe. To a Time where Galactus was just Galan. Surfer even contemplated killing him. So Surfer's Time Travel feats are much more impressive than either Superman's or Flash's.

I think there should be some kind of clear distinction between characters who are able to TRAVEL very fast and characters who can both travel and naturally move very fast. Someone who can travel/fly incredibly fast but not move at the same high speed is not the same kind of "fast" as someone like the flash who generally moves at incredible speed and not just has a fast way of travel. Just my opinion at least

Wait a minute, Supes almost broke "God's barrier", yet Flash is faster? Makes no sense, did the Spectre stop Flash from doing the same thing?

[@vaughnmitchell3030]

They hype every ability of Superman, he should not be faster than Shazam , who has the speed of a God, is Silver Surfer.

[@Slappaccino]

@@vaughnmitchell3030 Who hypes this? The writers? Cause they made him this fast. Also "god" is just a title. It's meaningless, and is no indication of power.

[@cullubbowzer8095]

The difference between the Flash and Superman (besides the Flash being faster) is that the Flash has a barrier around him that allows him to move as fast as he can without causing any drag or damage to the environment around him. Superman doesn’t have that barrier around him so him flying at top speed can destroy everything around him, hence why the Spectre had to stop Superman and not the Flash because his speed doesn’t threaten the multiverse

[@Psycho-th8vb]

@@cullubbowzer8095 not only that he has also blitz though all planes of existence including the Speedforce(which Flash was stuck into) and was about to reach the Kingdom of God(Presence) if Spectre(his agent) didn't stopped him Their speed had a huge gap it's not even funny. Superman was made to be OP Flash isn't

Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?

Wally is definitely my favorite Flash, before I stopped collecting I was glad to see him return.

[@castleclassicmovies148]

I usually agree with your rankings. I believe they are legit, such as grouping all of the speedsters into one rank, your reasoning was correct. With that said I believe you should have done the same thing for kryptonian‘s. They get their powers the same way so their speed must be somewhat equal. Though one may be faster than the other, I don’t believe it’s large enough of a gap to consider them separate rankings. With THAT said, I believe the 9th spot could be filled with a few other choices such as MM, or maybe Cannonball or Northstar.

[@lazyking8445]

Supergirl doesn’t have a spd feat that compares to Supes about to reach Heaven and the end of existence thru sheer spd alone. She has good spd feats but none that compare to that. Though, WW should’ve been way higher on the list imo since she was able to outspeed even Reverse Flash and react beyond the SOL when she was blinded

[@johnbuela8120]

@@lazyking8445 that's why she ranked low?

[@KevinP32270]

traveling at light speed stops time. traveling faster than light causes time to move backwards. it's the reason they can get to other galaxies so fast. they make time go backwards. so basically i guess they are time controllers.

Great List

I already knew your answer Arris & Yes I Totally Agree 👍🏾💯

Still not as fast as Ezra Miller dodging cops with a minor

Great job guys

Love your programming Alex. Wonder why The Specter never confronted Wally West.

[@igitaq]

I thought Northstar was faster than Quicksilver. He can go faster than light though it would kill him but I think he can go past mach 10 without too much trouble but keeps a cap on his speed so he doesn't destroy everything around him. Also The Runner couldn't be Buried Alien(Barry Allen) but I'm pretty sure he was the closest in that race, although he may not really be considered a hero.

[@imani2114]

He didn't mention here but quicksilver has gone faster than light multiple times. No one on this list is below the speed of light

You should cover classic stories like the original Secret Wars, Days of Future Past, the issue of The Avengers, and Crisis on Infinite Earths.

“He doesn’t run through the speed force, the speed force runs through him.”💯💯 that’s a powerful statement

Awesome video!! I agree 100% with the list and it is refreshing to see how you can explain and demonstrate your talking points. Thanks!!!

Shazam has been seen to be faster then the Flash with him deriving his speed from Mercury (Hermes for those that respect the Greeks) the God of Speed whilst at the end of the day Flash is still a man.

If Shazam is this high on the list because he has the speed of Mercury, why isnt wonder woman not higher up on the list? She has the speed of Hermes, also a God, and basically the same God, as you yourself pointed out???
