While Superman is one of the most powerful heroes in the DC Universe, enhanced to godlike levels by the Sun's radiation, The Flash's physics-defying powers are capable of killing him not by playing on his famous vulnerability to magic or his weakness to Kryptonite, but simply by hitting him so hard, even his ...
In order to even hit The Flash, Superman would have to catch him off guard. While Superman is invulnerable to speed attacks, exposure to Kryptonite will render him instantly powerless and level the playing field. That's the only real chance The Flash has for inflicting damage on Superman.
The Flash is officially the most powerful member of the Justice League, not just in terms of raw power, but also because of his capacity for growth and compassion. Barry Allen's speed allows him to travel through and even warp the fabric of the multiverse, making him a formidable threat to the entire multiverse.
In his rage, the Flash punches Superman in the face before zooming into his mom's house at the speed of light. After the Flash delivers the mean right hook, Superman is shown rubbing his jaw in pain, indicating that the one hit the Flash delivers has actually hurt him.
When on ground, Superman is always slower than the Flash. However, when in flight, Superman is faster than the Flash. But, if the Flash decides to tamper with the flow of time and “cheat,” then the Flash will be faster than Superman, even if he's flying.
As a general rule, the comics claim that The Flash is the faster hero, with Barry Allen, Wally West and even an octogenarian Jay Garrick having outrun Superman over the years.
It's been proven by now that Superman can't outrun the Flash, but it turns out he's still fast enough to keep up with Flash's top speed - albeit barely.
Superman punches are allowed in boxing as long as they are performed in a proper way and targeted above the belt. The technique adds extra power to the punch, but is not commonly used by world-class boxers because it is easy to anticipate. The move is also known as the Cobra Punch, Jumping Punch, and Diving Punch.
The Flash is known for his speed, but his 'time clone' ability effectively allows him to reshape reality and even gain new powers. There is one ability that the Flash possessed in comics that basically turned him into a god.
The Flash is the Fastest Man Alive, and that includes being faster than Kryptonians. While Superman is powerful and a close second as the world's fastest hero, he can't top the Speed Force.
While it is fairly obvious that the Flash could run circles around Thanos under normal circumstances as his powers make him virtually untouchable, there wouldn't be much the Scarlet Speedster could do if he was around for Thanos' Infinity Snap as there is no way to outrun the god-like power of cosmic chance.
Hurting the Hulk would be hard for the Flash, especially since every missed attack would make the Hulk angrier. However, the Flash can always deploy the infinite mass punch, his most devastating attack. It would be a last resort but it would give the Flash the win.
He can travel through space unharmed and can summon powerful bolts of lightning with his indestructible enchanted hammer. The Flash may be able to escape harm for a bit, but in the end, Thor would be too strong for the Flash to withstand.
Although he isn't the only superhero with a sun-based healing factor, Superman takes his healing abilities to new (and hilarious) heights. Unlike regular humans, Superman can solve all his vision problems by staring directly into the sun—literally.
He thought being stranded under a red sun might be the end of him. But a red sun doesn't take away Clark's determination. Red sun radiation doesn't necessarily weaken Superman; it merely leaves the Kryptonian at his most human-like state.
Once Superman lost his powers though, he was no different than you or I. He exerted about the same amount of stress to lift a telephone pole that any human, even a really strong one, would exert.
The red-sun radiation negates Superman's invulnerability in regards to Spider-Man, allowing Spider-Man's punches to hurt Superman until the radiation dissipates, and Superman is again invulnerable. When his punches, instead of staggering Superman, suddenly have little effect, Spider-Man calls off the fight.
Doing the relatively simple calculation reveals that the punch would have a force of around 190 quadrillion joules. To put that into terms that you can get your head around, it is the equivalent of 45 megatons of TNT, or almost 3,000 nuclear bombs that could potentially be hitting you right in the face.
“A young star(referring to the sun), his cells will drink in its radiation…” Superman doesn't really work out or train like Goku trains. He's muscular because his cells absorb the radiation of the sun.
Even though Superman is often considered the most powerful character in the DC Universe, Shazam definitely comes close, and he can even beat the Man of Steel. And with a massive power upgrade, there's no question that Shazam can meet Superman blow for blow—despite the upgrade's terrible side effects.
So how fast can human beings run? For that, we would need to look at the closest thing humanity has to The Flash: retired sprinter Usain Bolt. In 2009, Bolt set a new world record by running the 100m sprint in 9.58 seconds – achieving a top speed of 27mph (43km/h) – at the World Athletics Championships in Berlin.
In a competition of speed between the Blue Blur and the Scarlet Speedster, it will take more than math and science to really comprehend their overall speed. However, taking all things we know into account, Flash would win a typical race against Sonic the Hedgehog and come out as the faster of the two.
Goku being able to move in a place with no time places him leagues above other heroes known for their speed, including the Flash. The formula for speed is typically written as Speed = Distance/Time, but Goku is moving in a place where the concept of time no longer exists.
