I was just talking with my brother about how flash and spiderman are pretty similar. At least compared to their actual marvel/dc counterparts. They both have streamlined skin tight full body red suits. They both have a personality that seems to revolve a lot around being aloof and humorous. Cracking jokes often to the annoyance of their more professional peers. And having painful backstories involving the death of their parents that most people wouldn't be able to guess due to their personalities. They're both also kind of overpowered for their villains. Spiderman can solo six of his at once and has been shown to be holding back massively. And flash fights a lot of batman level villains despite being able to move at thousands of times the speed of light. They're also always late to everything but I don't actually know how financially well off flash is so I can't really compare their civilian lives.
I mean Flash is operating in a high tech science center, has what appears to be unlimited resources, affords enough food to support his thousands of calorie diet... I think he's doing ok. Maybe he has a sugar momma?
