Since Marvel’s “Eternals” movie was released, this debate has been going on for a while as to who’s faster among these two speedsters : Marvel’s own Makkari from the Eternals and DC’s Barry Allen, commonly known as the flash. Before we get into the main deal let’s recap who these characters are:

Makkari

Makkari is a member of a race of genetically modified beings, who were created at the world forge by the Celestials. These Celestials arrived Earth in 5000 B.C to fast track the progress of Humanity and protect humans from Villains called ” deviants”.

Barry Allen “The Flash”

The Flash, a founding member of the Justice League, is widely regarded as the world’s fastest man. He taps into the Speed Force and transforms into a costumed crime-fighter using his super-speed abilities.

Now let’s get down to business, How is Makkari a better Speedster than the Flash??

1.Superhuman Strength

When it comes to strength, i believe we can agree that barry is behind. Makkari possesses superhuman strength able to lift at least 30 tons under normal conditions. Well as for barry, let’s just say he’s human in that aspect.

2.Combat Skills

Barry isn’t particularly skilled in hand-to-hand combat. His prior fights with Reverse Flash, Zoom, Godspeed, Gorilla Grodd, and others demonstrate this. It normally takes him a long time to find out a means to defeat Villains without resorting to speed. Barry Allen can be beaten to a pulp by a Speedster who is on the same level as him and has good combat skills.

Makkari, on the other hand, has millennia of fighting experience. Makkari’s metabolism is additionally boosted by cosmic energy, therefore she doesn’t get tired from physical activity.

3.Earth-Eternal Physiology

Makkari, like the other eternals has a lifeform supported by cosmic energy and has complete Control over her body even when he’s sleep or unconscious. This is to say that Makkari cannot die from old age and is immune to diseases to a degree not known. Makkari also has body reinforced by cosmic energy making her indestructible. The only force that can injure Makkari is a cosmic force stronger than hers, or a distintegration at the molecular level.

Well this is merely an opinion, leave yours in the comment box.
