    So you got me thinking.....if when Barry Allen runs he generates speed force for other speedsters, so what if when he was out running death all those years he was generating more and more speedforce which is why Wally was able to pull off such feats that we've never seen a speedster do before. Meaning the only reason why wally is perceived faster and more capable depending on who you talk to as compared to Barry because of Barry and him continuously outrunning death just creating more and more Speed force until his return. 🤔

    • @samallen6939
      @samallen6939 Před 6 lety +52

      I really like that theory......until you realize it is grant Morronison writing and it will never be touched on again until DC lets him write again and he'll call back on something 20 years old that no one knows anything about and will just tie it in and leave the readers going....wait what?

    • @certifiedsliim
      @certifiedsliim Před 6 lety +7

      Sam Allen I think it's a cool theory idk if anyone else thought it up but id imagine someone else also thinks so. It would be a cool retcon of sorts to help explain the power between the speedsters. I was born in the Wally West era but Barry Allen is my flash and the only flash I've known for a long time. Idk how growing up I missed wally being the flash at that moment but hey whatevs lol. Either way id like them to establish the definitive flash like they've done with good ol Supes and Hal since you know Hal doesn't even need a ring anymore he is will power and all that.

    • @samgeurdi6351
      @samgeurdi6351 Před 6 lety +5

      SLIIMWOLF Dude not to burst your theory but that is exactly what the speed force is meant to do. Speedsters dying is giving new speedsters extra fuel when they merge with the speed force. Think about this. In Flashpoint why do you think Flash couldn’t run back in time. The answer is Eobard Thawn negating Barry’s Speed force with negative Speedforce cause he was taking all the energy to cut Barry out to generate his own. When Thawn was killed Barry got his connection back. I vaguely remember that only kid flash took the whole speedforce in himself at one time. Just having hard time with the context though.
      But anyway they do touch on Final Crisis event in Flash rebirth from 2009 if you haven’t read the #6 mini issues. Use this link if you want to read it. readcomiconline.to/Comic/The-Flash-Rebirth

    • @certifiedsliim
      @certifiedsliim Před 6 lety +2

      Sam Geurdi my whole thing is of Thawne uses the negative speed force which of counter to the Speed force how is he siphoning the Speed force. He's not connected to it like the other speedsters. And I get that when a speedster dies they merge with the Speed force but Barry didn't die. So he couldn't have merge into the Speed force. He was IN the Speed force outlining death. I've seen Flashpoint, I've read the comic so that part always confused me. Thawne isn't supposed to be attached to the Speed force so I don't see how he can siphon it.

      nic defendis Sacrificed in a blaze of glory burning up as his last heroic act was to trash Anti-Monitors armor in the COIE event of 1986 returned in FC and got a 6 mini issue titled The Flash: Rebirth 2009. Yeah pretty much dead for 20+years. But the idea was no one knew anything until FC.

    Top tier lines that spawned from this run:
    -ANTI-LIFE JUSTIFIES MY HATRED
    -Imagine a God-Bullet fired backwards through time
    -HAVETOREACHSUPERLUMINALVELOCITY
    -With the word "Taaru", I summon the Forever People of the Fifth Dimension!
    -I have the greatest power of all, Mister Miracle. I am SO RICH I can do anything.
    Final Crisis contains so much postmodern word-weavery. Just like Alan Moore's Swamp Thing and Neil Gaiman's Sandman, Grant Morrison smiths words together in pleasurable ways you never thought possible before.

    Can you explain the origins of magic in marvel and dc comics. What are it's origins? Where does it come from? How can it be used? Can anyone create their own magical spells with enough knowledge and experience?
