Comic Art


I think they existed purely as plot devices to begin to introduce the concept of the "speed force" which is what real speedsters like Flash tap into. The comics get into a whole zen, cosmic thing about it, and the very idea grates on my physics trained mind, but hey, it's comics.
Well, there, now I've mentioned them, so no one can say I didn't. They do look cool. As "man-made" speedsters, they are slow, but the whole mishapenness that comes out of the process of trying to get that way is an interesting idea.
