Powers and Abilities
As the Flash, Garrick can run at superhuman speeds and has superhumanly-fast reflexes. The limits of his speed has fluctuated over the years, though he has usually been kept second to DC's "flagship" Flash, Barry Allen.
In his earliest appearances, Jay could move swiftly enough to intercept bullets. He could carry people away with him at super-speed without causing injury due to extreme acceleration. He could make himself invisible by vibrating his body at high frequencies.
In the 2012 series Earth 2, Jay's powers are magical in nature, and he can magically transform his clothing into his costume at will.
