What Happens When The Flash Has To Run With His Hands? - Screen Rant

Thanks to his speed, it's hard to outrace the Flash. For decades, the DC Comics superhero has used his speedy legs to catch and fight criminals as a member of the Justice League. But what happens when someone switches legs with the Flash? Well, he's got to get creative.

In The Flash #146 (1964) by John Broome, Carmine Infantino, and Joe Giella, the Mirror Master is fresh out of prison and developing new mirror-based weapons to commit crimes. He enrolls in a course on greatness, where Barry Allen is also attending (in an effort to impress Iris). It's in the classroom Mirror Master puts everyone in a trance and reveals his latest sinister plan - he's created a new mirror that can switch the legs of what it's reflecting. First, he tries it on two separate chairs. Then, he uses it on Barry Allen to steal his legs and speed.

Using the switching mirror, the Flash and Mirror Master switch legs. The new legs allow the villain to run circles around the Flash, leaving him helpless to watch as he can't outrun him. However, Barry is always one to think quick on his feet (or his hands in this situation), as he stands on his hands and realizes he still has his super speed. It might look silly, but by using his hands, the Flash manages to run circles around Mirror Master - much to the confusion of the rogue.

Eventually, the Mirror Master manages to land a punch on the hand-standing Flash and while his opponent is down he switches the legs back due to worries that the speedster will be able to track his vibrations. This proved to be a huge mistake for Mirror Master, as Barry Allen later discovers that his classmate is the villain in disguise and that he had been put under a trance. Using lightning velocity to dodge the mirror rays of his enemy, the Flash lands his own walloping punch against Mirror Master and turns him over to police.

The Golden Age of the Flash features some incredibly silly stories, so it's probably best you don't think too hard about the Mirror Master being able to steal Flash's body parts and the implications of doing so. Ultimately, the Flash used his speed (on his hands) to counter-attack Mirror Master. In the end, the superhero's powers are more than just his legs. In order to stop the Flash, you need to take full control of him - otherwise, he'll find new ways, like running on his hands, to beat you.
