I am one of those silly people who does not slab and grade his comics, but leaves them available to read. My 12-year-old granddaughter has been reading many of my comics from the 70s and 80s, and had two questions for me I couldn't answer:

1. Can Daredevil "sense" invisible structures created by the Invisible Girl? (She hasn't become Invisible Woman yet in what she is reading).

2. Can The Flash control his speed to where, if he wanted to, he could run just 50 miles per hour?

I could probably Google these, but I thought she might get a kick out of seeing her questions answered here. Thank you all in advance.

Regarding The Flash -- 50 miles per hour is 73 feet per second, so even when he runs "slow" he's astoundingly fast!

JB,

  I really appreciate you taking the time to answer. I'm sure she will be thrilled. I know I am!

It's even a pivotal moment in his run - Daredevil guest-starred in the issue where Sue became Malice, and he told Reed that they were fighting a large spheroid. It was in that moment that Reed realized that they were fighting Sue.

I'm not sure of the current Daredevil's senses, but I would expect if spoken sounds were passing through a force field such as Invisible Woman generates, than Daredevil should get a passive sonar picture of the inside of the force field and perhaps a sense of the force field through a distortion affect.

The Malice issues were masterpieces! Too bad they tainted Malice years later...

My fault. I genuinely believed I had built something bulletproof. I reckoned without creative bankruptcy.
