We all know Superman is “faster than a speeding bullet” and shit. Superman is THE man. But, the Speedforce is pretty epic, especially in regards to one Barry Allen. So, Barry Allen with the power of the Speedforce racing Superman with all the might of the yellow sun …
Silver Age, Superman could exceed the speed of light and travel in time under his own power, and the Flash could achieve light speed and needed a device (the Cosmic Treadmill … hey, I didn’t name it) to time travel.
Current versions, Flash can exceed the speed of light and travel through time, and Supes can’t (he’s only been seen to time travel with assistance, such as from the Legion of Super Heroes). So currently, Flash can leave Supes behind, lap him and tease him about winning the race the day before it starts, then run with the previous version of himself and beat Supes again.
Flash, hands down. Superman is a jack-of-all-trades. Flash is a specialist. When it comes to speed, you can’t beat Flash. If you truth, justice, and the American way, you go for Superman.
Who is the artist for those two sketches? I love the way they draw! :)

he does some amazing work. I think that’s one of my favorite Supes images ever.
And my vote’s for the Flash.

The Flash would win even if he was hopping on one leg! :)

That’s, like, one of the greatest renderings of Superman ever. But Flash wins.
