who is the fastest superhero? this question has been a lengthy argument for decades and it's quite difficult to calculate so join us today as we will reveal the fastest characters in the modern era let's begin with number ten Dash, Dash in the Incredibles video game it shows his maximum speed at over 190 miles per hour this stack could increase his ages though seeing as he's a very young and has yet to use his abilities to their fullest potential number nine Shazam Shazam is one of the fastest characters in the DCU in the movie Shazam runs across a city in a matter of seconds the city is approximately 10 miles wide so Shazam can run at a speed of at least 10 miles per second with that said we can assume the other speedsters in the Shazam family like the Black Adam and Darla Dudley are capable of this feat as well No.8 A-Train the fastest member in the boys universe it's implied that he can run at speeds of up to 999 miles per hour this is based on a scene in the first season where a train races against a speedster named Shockwave No.7 Makkari in the movie Makkari runs across the Atlantic Ocean in a matter of minutes The Atlantic Ocean is approximately 2,800 miles wide so to achieve this feat she needs to run at a speed of 2,800 miles per hour this is also her highest ever recorded up to now No.6 Sonic the Hedgehog sonic's speed is a major part of his character allowing him to travel long distances quickly and effortlessly in the film Sonic is seen running at speeds of up to Mach 10 which is around 12,000 miles per hour this is significantly faster than the speed of sound which is only around 761 miles per hour number five Superman's speed in the Justice League movie is not explicitly stated but it is implied that he can move its speeds far exceeding Mach 10 within Earth's atmosphere this is proven when he flies from earth to the very outer exosphere which is a distance of approximately 200,000 miles he does all this in eight seconds meaning that he is flying at a speed of at least Mach 72 No.4 Saitama, Saitama's top speed is not explicitly stated in the manga or anime but we can assume that he can move at extreme speeds one such incident is where he jumps from the moon to the earth he does so in just 19 seconds to arrive on earth the distance between the moon and the earth is about 238,900 miles showing that Saitama traveled at a speed of 534,000 miles per hour No.3 Captain Marvel to calculate your speed we can base this on the scene where she searched an earth like planet for ground defenses where she covers approximately 7,900 miles in less than 30 seconds meaning she has been traveling at an average speed of at least 950,000 miles per hour No.2 Quicksilver to figure out his speed let's look at the scene at X Mansion the average detonation velocity is 7,150 meters per second the scene is two minutes and 24 seconds and each floor of the X Men mansion is 15,330 feet squared so when the explosion occurs in 20 microseconds it takes him four seconds to get to the place and four seconds out of 100 and forty four seconds so when the calculations are done he has been traveling at an incredible speed of 7.4 million miles per hour No.1 the flash it has been revealed that he can travel back in time using the Speed Force in real life time really does appear to behave differently at the speed of light which moves at approximately 86,000 miles per second when Snyder's version of Barry saves the world he tells himself he has to break the rule and go far beyond the speed of light since he's been able to reverse time he is several times faster than the light which is at at least 670.6 million miles per hour so for these reasons we rank the flash as the fastest speedster in the modern era well hope you enjoyed the list what should be next comment below and don't forget to subscribe to SL made
