Is the Flash low key stronger than Superman?

I’m not so sure this is universally true. If you got time, I could demonstrate this for you with math and a little Euclidean geometry. I apologize for lengthy post





I think flash’s greatest weakness is the fact that he’s a fast running human.

This allows us 3 postulates(assumed true)

• It’s assumed that this fight is on earth. (the human thing)
• Additionally, running requires flash to be on the ground.
  
  
• Anything that impedes the motion of his feet slows Flash down and is a plus for Superman who can just levitate and fly to top speed.

As things currently stand, flash is slightly faster than Superman when running on the ground. But let’s consider the ground for a second here. What is the ground? Stay with me here, this is very relevant. Sometimes the ground has a flat slope like this.

other times the ground has a positive slope like this.....

or a negative slope like this....

but when you consider the entire planet, you start to get something like this (curvature of planet). It resembles a half parabola for the distance we are concerned with.....

This curvature is how Supes can catch flash before he becomes a problem. In Euclidean geometry, it is assumed that the shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line going from point A to pointB. Any deviation from this straight line increases the distance traveled by an object along that line and also increases the time to get to the end of that line. But how does this relate to the Flash vs. Superman?



My first postulate assumes that this fight is on planet earth. Do you agree? And I also established that the earth is not a flat line(zero slope). It has ups/downs but generally has a curvature the farther you go across it.

My 2nd postulate assumes that Flash is running on the ground. If flash is running on the ground which is rarely flat and zero-sloped; then he CANNOT take the shortest distance from point A to point B. He must increase the time and distance traveled to get to the same point as I just established from Euclidean geometry.




But Superman does not have this problem. Dude can fly through buildings, planets, and the ground itself.

So, while Flash is taking the long way around, Superman is free to cut corners, catch up to Flash, and kick his kneecaps off.





You see my point? Any objections?

The flash can run through "space"

He doesnt need solid ground

Throwing in Captain Cold just because of Injustice 2

Canibus vs The Flash?

Flash still wins, This is easily debunked tho Superman can’t fly at light speed the only person in the JL community who can move at light speed is the flash

Approaching light speed = time slows down
AT light speed = time STOPS
FASTER than light speed = time REVERSES

If Barry being able to perceive an attosecond and moving at lightspeed he can see all this and outmaneuver supes

Lets not forget that Superboy Prime, the version of Superman that washed damn near all villains AND heroes in MULTIPLE universes, is scared of Flashes

I wonder why
