12th Hero

For those how care I am getting better. But that just meas I no longer have an excuse.

And the 12th Hero goes to:












The Flash

Points: 54

# of voters: 5

Range: 19th to 2nd place

That’s right, the Flash. The Flash is a name carried by a DC Comics superhero that has super speed as a power. There have been four superheroes that have held the name of the Flash; Jay Garrick, Barry Allen, Wally West, and Bart Allen. Each had their own different origin, Jay breathing in chemicals, Barry and Wally were exposed to chemicals that were hit by lighting, and Bart was born with the powers. Yet they all have the relative same powers, they can move, think, and react at super speed.

The Flashes speed surpasses even Superman and they can do odd things with their speed. They can walk on water, vibrate their bodies to walk through solid objects, and create tornadoes. Barry, the fastest flash, traveled so fast that he became pure energy, traveled back in time, saved the day, and died in the process. Bart could not only read at super speed, he could remember everything he reads.

So why did the Flash make 12th place? Well first off he is very well known throughout the DC Comics. His power are awesome, come on, you know you would love to have that power. Each one had his own attitude; other than the usual here to save the day boy scout, most of the flashes had a punch line while they fought. Also they were considered one of the most powerful forces in the Justice League. And finally, he was the favorite character in the Justice League animated series. There he was the comic relief of the show making him a favorite of some of my friends. In fact, while I was asking someone about why the Flash was high on her list she simple replied that in the show he could make tornadoes. Even with all the other reason, apparently making tornadoes was a good to make the list.
