2. The Flash Family

Yes, this may technically be cheating, but seeing as how most Flash characters are all able to operate at a similar speed level, it makes sense to include them in the same bracket.

Most Flash characters.

Because though yes, the Allens may be among the fastest members of the Flash family, there are others in the mythos who've managed to outrun them. Though there have been other speedsters to have come and gone over the years, including the likes of Jesse Quick, Godspeed and more, when it comes to the world of the Flash, Barry, Bart, and the likes of Hunter Zolomon and Eobard Thawne are all undoubtedly the quickest.

As far as their powers go, they don't really need much introduction. All are connected to the Speed Force in some way (some more intrinsically than others), and with many a Flash tale having involved the likes of Barry, Bart, Jay and more running through Hypertime, breaking timestreams, or even outrunning the physical embodiment of death itself (the Black Racer), it's clear that the medium's premier speedsters all belong to this particular family.
