Hawkman, Donna Troy and the LoSH in Crisis of Nonsensical Continuity.
At one point in time, I recall rumbles feeling that pre nu52 Zolomon was at the apex for reaction speed for speedsters. This small tier included the Runner. Following closely behind was pre Crisis Barry Allan and Superman. After that, Wally West/Silver Surfer tier. To address someone else's question, I think the showing of Wally West not being seen by the pre Crisis JLA whilst fighting the Anti-Monitor was just the writer being oblivious to how fast pre Crisis characters like Superman actually were.
Zolomon's continuity was a bit of a mess back then. He was first created to be able to control only his own personal time line and could NOT travel backwards in time. He also could not vibrate through objects. When Bart Allen was the main Flash, we see Zolomon traveling back in time to ancient Rome. Later, in Final Crisis, Rogues Revenge, we see Zolomon phasing just fine through stuff. Yeesh.
At any rate, I gather pre Crisis Superman is outdone by pre 52 Zolomon on all counts.
