This is just a small revision of Wally West Flash regarding his stats.

The Infinite Mass Punch should be listed as 4-B, while, yes, it is stated to hit with the force of a white dwarf star, it has also been stated by Wonder Woman to hit harder than Superman when Reverse Flash hit her with several of them. It has also allowed Wally to hurt a Zum, who is stated to be more durable than Superman.

Yes. Wonder Woman says the IMP hurts more than Superman, and Wally hurt a being more durable than Superman with it, so IMP should be 4-B.
 
Infinite Mass Punch should be 4-B because it gives Flash the Relativistic Mass of a White Dwarf Star which wields 4-B KE.

I need to make a blog about it. There's one instance of the move where Flash literally mentions Relativistic Mass to explain his sudden increase in mass.
 
I am fine with upgrading the Flash and Zoom profiles to 4-B, by scaling from Superman, Wodner Woman, and the Martian Manhunter, if they are not listed as such already.
 
So will Flash be rated flat out 4-B or will he have two separate ratings with 4-B being with IMP only?
 
I think that requires too much speculation about a white dwarf star supposedly being accelerated near the speed of light, but scaling from Zum, who is as powerful as the Martian Manhunter, is perfectly fine.
 
@Antvasima

Flash literally states that moving close to lightspeed gives him Relativistic Mass in a comic. There's no speculation, it's just how it works. Flash moves near the speed of light and this increases his mass because that's how relativity works. He simply moves so close to the speed of light he gets the mass of a White Dwarf Star.
 
Here . The comic literally states that the hits with the Relativistic Mass of a moon in this particular scene. Infinite Mass Punch works under the same mechanic, just stretched to the extreme.
 
Yes, but he does not state at what speed a white dwarf star would be travelling to compare to the force of his own blow.

As such, I think that it is safer to simply scale from Zum/The Martian Manhunter.
 
"Yes, but he does not state at what speed a white dwarf star would be travelling to compare to the force of his own blow."

Ant, he reaches the relativistic mass of a White Dwarf Star by approaching lightspeed. Thus, you can apply it on the Relativistic KE formula and find out exactly at what speeds he would be moving at, and what the resulting KE would be.
 
Okay. My bad then. I thought that you wanted to make a calculation for a white dwarf star travelling at relativistic speeds.
 
Okay. That should be fine then.
 
This would change Wally West, Barry Allen, Zoom (Hunter Zoloman), and Professor Zoom to 4-B (all Post-Crisis, obviously)
 
I am not sure about Barry Allen. Isn't he far slower than the others?
 
Okay. I suppose that all of them should scale then.
