    Default The Flash moving without gravity?

    Scenario: the Flash must race to save his non-powered friends before they are killed in the next 5 minutes.

    Two things though:

    1) they are on Pluto while the Flash is on Earth, and

    2) he has no access to teleporters, FTL spaceships, or any sort of sci-fi road/tunnels that provide a road for him to run on

    So, are his friends doomed?

    Or can he run so fast he can defy gravity long enough and fast enough to get there?

    A. Jay Garrick
    B. Barry Allen
    C. Wally West
    D. Bart Allen

    Can any or all of them overcome their lack of flight here without PIS?

    I mean, saying no PIS kind of misses the point here.

    Could we wrote a convincing way for this to happen in a story? Sure. It's a scenario.

    Sorry, should have been clearer:

    Does the Flash (Jay/Barry/Wally/Bart) have any feats for defying gravity on his own? Does he always need a road to run on? Can he simulate flying thru space?

    Or is moving off-planet something he point-blank has never done on his own without external help?

    I thought he did have that race against a alien speedster through space or something?

    Yeah the Speed Force means Flash moves, no matter the situation as said Force is a part of DC physics. It is providing his stop and go.

    As to the first paragraph...I think that was Wallys race against Krakkl then the cosmic gamblers in The Human Race. That was on a race track twisting in and out of space time.
