Silver Surfer & 5 Comic Book Characters Who Are Faster Than Superman

2. Zoom

Bearing in mind that Wally West is faster than Superman, it should go without saying the Hunter Zolomon AKA Zoom is faster than the Man of Steel – given that he is considerably faster than Wally West.

Actually, the term “fast” is being used loosely here. The DC villain doesn’t actually move at superspeed, he can simply manipulate the flow of time around him so that it appears as though he is moving at superspeed (which effectively amounts to the same thing) – and he can do it to the extent that even Wally West appears like a statue to him.

Zoom has launched physical attacks on West that the hero has been unable to react to (see in the image above, which you can click on to enlarge), meaning he has effectively speedblitzed the speedster.

In fact, when he was holding West’s girlfriend Linda Park, West attacked him at full-speed – obviously bloodlusted with anger. Zoom casually swatted every single one of West’s attacks away with one hand.

Zoom has also been in a fight with West that saw the pair circle the Earth twelve times and cover every inch of Earth in less than a second (a fight that saw them pass Superman in a statue-like state). Plus, in spite of having no super-strength, his speed enables him to hit so hard that Wonder Woman explicitly stated that his punches are harder than Superman’s.
