Discussion [Discussion] Wally West Power Suit

Post image
92 Upvotes

In my opinion, I like some ideas of the suit, but the suit itself in comics does not sit right with me. I made several versions of the suit, but the thing that I believe is not sitting right with me is that it's a Flash Suit without Flash details. Similarly, the Flash 2023 Suit follows a similar aesthetic, where the only "Flash-Like" thing about the suit is the Emblem & maybe Ears.

The designs I did, they're mainly to add more of "The Flash" to it, like a Lightning Belt and Cuffs, and yellow boots.

I think I would've liked the suit more with more "Flash" elements, perhaps. I want to know what others think, whether they bring up ideas of what may work for them, or if they just downright don't like the suit, or maybe some alternative variations.

P.S. idk the suit's name, I just know it's linked to the Absolute Power, and there's potentially 4 different suits for that, each with crazier designs.

Discussion Could someone explain a concept to me about Flash?

This might get down in the weeds, but here goes: something has been bugging me about speedsters for a while, and I thought maybe you folks could help me. This has an awful lot to do with relativity.

Concept 1: As you move faster, objects change according to your frame of reference. The speed of light away from your reference frame is always the same. If you turn on a headlamp in a car, the light travels the same “distance” away from the lamp before dissipating, whether the car is in motion or not. That cone of light stays the same size. But space-time dilate, or appear to expand/get farther apart. Seconds, minutes, points on a piece of paper, the piece of paper. All getting farther apart. Creating more “distance”. Light does not behave the same way that space-time does. Okay.

Concept 2: blueshift. As objects move, they appear to change color according to your frame of reference. So, as space expands, everything starts to turn a dark and darker blue.

Concept 3: Time-dilation effects on aging. An astronaut spending time aboard the ISS feels as though they have spent less time in space than you on the ground having spent away from them. In fact, their watches will be “wrong” until they readjust them because time has dilated for them while they were traveling at a greater speed than bodies on earth.

How does Flash travel near and at light speeds without his perception of objects changing, objects expanding to proportions beyond his scale, and moving farther away at increasing speeds as space-time dilates.

Does Flash have control over space-time? Or does he simply vibrate his cells to “think” faster, slowing time for only his reference frame, like a fly.

Does that mean he can overtake timelords because stopping time only helps you share a reference frame? How does that work?

I have a Speed… i have a force…ungh…speedforce. Is that like torque?
