A superhero, and member of the Justice League.

Description[]

The Flash is shown as a man of medium height and medium build, and wears his usual red costume decorated with yellow lightning strokes. He has similarly shaped attachments on his ears and the tops of his boots. In character, he is jovial and friendly.

His power is his ability to move with super-speed which, he tells us, he has obtained from the "speed force" that is "found between dimensions" and implies that he needs to be connected to it. (The concept is not generally known, as Superman is not aware of it although Chronos is.) As he accelerates, streaks of lightning can sometimes be seen streaming from the back of his head and body but not otherwise while he is running. His speed can be used, for instance, to search through the streets of a city in a hurry or to quickly check on all the inmates in a prison. In combat, he relies on it to catch opponents unawares and then bombard them with a blur of blows, and can run and jump into the air against flying foes.

Flash01

He is generally vulnerable but can always use his speed to move out of harm's way. Another ability is to create a draft that can stop a gas cloud from spreading by whirling his arms like propellers.

Flash02

Flash also tells us that by vibrating his molecules fast enough he can "phase" through solid objects and we see him use this to escape a hostile grip, move through a boulder, or through a force-field-like 'time barrier'. In the latter case, he can be defeated in his attempt by generated friction if he does not have enough speed force energy.

Flash03

It is not clear just how quick he is, but in a race around the world against Superman neither can get a head in front. Although Superman is just as fast, Flash is more knowledgeable about super-speed and more subtle in its use, perhaps because it is his only super-power.
