    What about Northstar, Aurora, Inertia, Tornado Twins, Wally West's 2 kids, Lady Flash, John Fox, Kingdom Come's Iris Allen, that female Flash from Batman Beyond Universe, Doc Rocket from Youngblood, Dash from NewMen. This is a very abbreviated "comprehensive list".

    This is a list of the GREATEST speedsters.

    So tough luck for the frauds who couldn't make the cut.

    If you're going to have Speedy Gonzales, you should include Road Runner. They could share a spot, at least.

    Speedy Gonzales was actually created by Robert McKimson and Ted Pierce.

    I don't believe Kabuto started as a comic. Not to mention, this is pretty clearly an american works focused list.

    How about "The Runner" (Elder of the Universe)?

    I'd include Bluestreak from MC2 for the heck of it as well. Sure she's basically just a Quicksilver homage but she was fun.

    Admittedly I was surprised Trajectory wasn't on the list as a way to hype her showing up in the Flash show, even if she was otherwise minor.
