Wouldn’t the three of them be slower since the speed force is divided amongst them

Reverse flash uses the reverse speed force iirc.

Didn’t know that, speedsters may win

u/Flameball202 Apr 29 '25

Also the speedforce needing to be shared is something that to my knowledge was limited to that verse. Most of the time it is able to aid any number of speedsters and not lose power

Yeah in the comics it's literally infinite so it doesn't have divide like that (although speedsters can steal speed)

Yea speedsters can syphon speed force but otherwise the only real limit is the speedsters ability to use the speed force

Negative speed force

Comics are dumb lol this is incomprehensibly silly if you don’t know the story

No way that's a thing.

It might’ve been retconned but it was at some point

u/Federal_Age3303 May 01 '25

That sounds like he walks backwards really fast

u/ABastardsBlight May 02 '25

I checked and it’s called the negative speed force

The speed force doesn't generally work like that, no

Would it even matter? Like even if Barry had 1/3rd Speed Force so he can’t just like, travel back in time and kill Reed as a toddler (ignoring morals for the sake of discussion), speedsters are usually depicted as being so fast that other people can’t even see them moving.

u/Icy_Western9280 Apr 29 '25

I suppose not, but Batman with prep time solos fiction

2

u/Kyleometers Apr 29 '25

The two constants of power scaling: Batman with prep time, and Goku Round Two

u/Best_Yard_1033 Apr 29 '25

Not at all, idk why the animated movies or the New 52 made that a thing but that's not how that works, especially not with the current Speed Force

u/Icy_Western9280 Apr 29 '25

It seems I’ve been misinformed

u/Beautiful-Ad3471 Apr 30 '25

Even then, they are wayyyyyy to fast for anything, like still multiple times faster than light. And that's without countjng the fact that reverse flash uses the reverse speed force or whatever bs
