Savitar can move at super-speed, and is able to lend or steal speed from moving objects. In DC Rebirth, Troia (a version of Donna Troy from an alternate future) recalls that Wally was killed by either Savitar or Brother Blood from that time. In September 2011, The New 52 rebooted DC's continuity where parts of Savitar's origin are used in the Top's origin. Savitar, Lady Savitar (Christina Alexandrova) and Johnny Quick have been killed by this effect. It is revealed that Professor Zoom altered Barry's Speed Force connection to make the Flash shift in reverse, cursed to kill every Speed Force user with a single touch until a conflict between the Flash and Zoom. He was run down by the Flash ( Barry Allen) but Savitar disintegrates when the Flash touches him, leaving only a pile of bones. In The Flash Rebirth mini-series, Savitar was able to escape from the Speed Force. His earlier encounter had shown him that the others who had arrived before would deal with Savitar as they saw fit. Hell-bent on at least destroying the Flash's world in retribution, Savitar led Wally on a worldwide race of destruction, until the Flash chose to give Savitar what he wanted: union with the Speed Force. Wally's direct Speed Force connection prevented Savitar from stealing Wally's speed, and a coalition of just about every speedster (except for Red Trinity) foiled his plans. He then sought to eliminate the competition: The Flash ( Wally West), Impulse, Golden Age Flash ( Jay Garrick), Johnny Quick, Jesse Quick, XS and Max Mercury. He recruited former Blue Trinity member Lady Flash (Christina Alexandrova), and discovered a way to use the woman's speed to divert all energy from the Speed Force to his own army of ninjas. Reappearing decades later, Savitar found that his cult had grown in his absence, awaiting his return. Emerging from the timestream before Savitar, Max Mercury became a mentor to the Flash family's various members and other speedsters, secretly preparing them against the day Savitar would exit the timestream. This encounter became a battle, the tide of which was turned with Max Mercury's arrival leading Savitar toward the Speed Force, but causing him to bounce off, both speedsters being thrown forward in time. In search of more knowledge, he sought out the only super-speed hero operating at the time: Johnny Quick. Savitar's obsession gained followers, and he became the leader of a cult. He can protect himself in a null-inertia force field, give speed and kinetic energy to objects or people, even those in a 'rest state', and he could also heal his own injuries almost instantly. As he studied, Savitar discovered new powers that no other living speedster has mastered. Discovering he could defeat the enemy by moving at super-speed, he became obsessed, naming himself after the Hindu 'god of motion' Savitar and dedicating his life to unlocking its secrets. As he reached top speed, his plane was struck by what appeared to be lightning and he went down in hostile territory. Savitar was originally an unnamed pilot for a third-world nation that was to test a supersonic fighter jet during the Cold War. 2) #108 (December 1995), and was created by Mark Waid and Oscar Jimenez.
