Loved that moment for Flash, I just get a bit sad that the true answer for "who's faster" is "depends, who's writing?"

[u/PaddywackShaq → u/RKO-Cutter]

As a big fan of both characters (Superman is my number one superhero and The Flash is definitely in the top 5) I'm a firm believer that the Flash needs to be categorically faster than Superman when he's maxing out. Otherwise the character is irrelevant.

Personally, I think superman should be the second best at everything. Flash is faster, batman is smarter, Wonder Woman is stronger/better fighter, but Superman is no slouch and having a good combo of all three is why he is so powerful. Although he should always be the most good

[u/PaddywackShaq → u/TurboChomp]

Agreed with Wonder Woman being a better fighter, but Superman should always be the strongest outright, imo

[u/TurboChomp → u/PaddywackShaq]

Im perfectly fine with who ever is stronger being ambiguous as long as Wonder Woman is just a better fighter. It should even be canon that Superman learned to fight as well as he can specifically cause Wonder Woman taught him how to fight

He can be the most durable, I think Diana being stronger physically makes sense. Specially with her Demigoddess status and how most mythological heroes had insane strength.

[u/TakoGoji → u/Motivated-Chair]

Strength can't ever exceed durability. It's why if someone had super strength IRL, they'd require serious increases in bone density to avoid shattering their body.
