So the question is pretty simple. Given that Shazam gets his speed from Mercury, and Mercury gave his powers to Earth 2 Flash, would that make them the same speed? Also would a Shazam in Earth 2 draw his power from the Flash there, and would that weaken him? Something I was curious about as a Shazam fan and always comparing his speed to other superspeed characters. It's been established that he's incredibly fast, faster than Superman in most cases, spoken by the Man of Steel himself, such as in Justice where he caught up to the Flash, which puts him at a top tier in terms of speed, to the point where even The Flash in the 1995 #107 "The Flash and the Power of Shazam!" he asked if Shazam tapped in the speed force as well with how fast he was.
So Shazam's speed = Earth 2 Flash's?
Edit: Since new 52 Earth Prime gets his powers from The Living Lightning as pointed out down below, then would Thunderworld Shazam, who should be going by pre-52 continuity power source, be as fast?
