The
Quarter Bin is a good place to answer those pesky questions you've always had.
For example...just
who is the fastest person in the
Marvel Universe?
The Runner--the
lamest Elder Of The Universe in the history of...well, the Universe--has come to Earth:
He sets up a race to find the fastest person on Earth, so he can take them to compete against other planetary champions in the
Galactic Marathon. And thus:
Makkari, the
Eternal!
Quicksilver, the mutant!
Whizzer, visiting from the
Squadron Supreme's dimension!
Captain Marvel Photon Pulsar Spectrum Monica Rambeau!
Speed Demon--crook!
Super Sabre, the mutant!
Black Racer, member of the
Serpent Squad/Society!
(
Quasar's just there to referee...)
And the course?
A hyperspace corridor to the moon!!
Ready, set...
Who will win? They're
all full of self-doubt!
Ah, but there is a last minute
mystery entrant!
Wait...
who?
Wait a minute---the uniform remnants...the blonde hair...it
can't be...
The stranger passes everyone with ease...
And despite giving everyone a head start...
he wins!!
And
who is he...?
"
Buried Alien"?
Sigh.....
Gruenwald!!
So it turns out that
The Flash is the fastest person in the Marvel Universe...or the
DC Universe...or
any damn universe...
Oh, amongst the actual competitors?
Makkari was the fastest!!
All hail the Quarter Bin for answering our questions (especially as I found a
complete run of Quasar in there--woo hoo!)
Quasar #17 is from 1990
