The Flash

The Flash has always pissed me off. He is the most powerful Superhero in the DC Universe, and he's portrayed as a douche. He just runs fast and does stuff fast. His power is so much more than that. He has no drive, he's just doing it for the fun of it. Look at Batman, the dude has no powers, he just kicks ass day and night because he hates crime. The Flash was like, "I've got nothing better to do so I might as well stop some guys who PERPETUALLY ROB THE BANK." Seriously, they don't ever learn?? And WTF, robbing banks?? When is the last time The Flash broke up a check-fraud operation? Robbing a bank is a minimum 25 year sentence and almost every bank robber gets caught. You can make more money scamming with much lower risk and lower penalties. Flash just beats up retards all day long. So impressive.

Look at his powers!! The dude is amazing! He could use his vibration thing to rip out Superman's heart and eyeballs, or just make them explode. That is HARD CORE. Superman wouldn't even know what hit him. What if the last thing he saw was Flash holding his heart and saying, "Hey, it was me." I would crap my pants. Maybe Flash should be evil, then his book wouldn't keep getting cancelled over and over again.

Above all that, Flash can travel through time. He basically owns time. Nobody else really does it like he does. I mean, Superman used to do the spinning the world backward thing, but that proved to be too much of a reach even for comic books, so they dropped it. I'd like to see an Elseworlds story where Superman's family is killed and he goes nuts and to try to bring them back he makes the world spin around backward and ends up killing all life on earth.

Why the hell does Flash run around beating up bank robbers and do JLA watchtower duty all day when he is easily the most powerful superhero in the universe?

I'm going to try not to focus on superheroics too much, but I had to get this out while it was fresh.
