The old debate of who’s faster, the Flash or Superman, led to such spirited debate that DC was forced to turn off comments on its popular blog, The Source.
Molly Merrell with DC issued this statement on the blog.
Due to the inappropriate comments on this post, we will no longer be allowing comments on The Source until further notice.
My sincere apologies to those who came to this blog to actually discuss DC Comics and their books, but this back-and-forth has gotten out of control on this blog.
Posts have been – and will continue to be – deleted on both sides of this conflict. Your post may not have included any offensive words, but by continuing this dialogue, you are only escalating the problem. Therefore, any comment that is part of this back-and-forth will be deleted.
For those users who had nothing to do with this, I am very sorry for the inconvenience. We are working to make this site more hospitable to those who choose to comment properly and not take part in these offensive and inappropriate disputes.
Sincerely,
Molly

I think Alex Ross settled in nicely in the “Justice” limited series. If you haven’t read it, please do, it’s the best thing since Crisis on Infinite Earths and Watchmen.
Flame the Flaming Flamers.
Sorry, I mean “don’t add to a debate to which DC clearly does not want an answer”
So long as they keep flip-flopping on who’s faster, they can keep renewing this question decade after decade.
My opinion, which is naturally based on comic book logic, is that Flash would be faster in a simple test of speed. Of course, the test is never “simple” is it?
