And don't you know, the show loves twisting the comics around, like how they made Atom Smasher and Dr. Light evil, and Eddie Thawne and Killer Frost and Joe good! Yeah, but they don't give powers to people who don't have them. If they were going to make Cisco evil, they would do a Reverb story. They wouldn't make him into a seperate character. Cisco's power set in the comics never included superspeed. Plus even if he did, why doesn't he use his clearly better powers on our heroes? Why can't he stop Barry from moving before he gets punched? Why can't he just shoot Jesse with a vibrational blast and then steal the shard? See, it makes no sense. They do give powers to those who don't have them, just look at Jax and Clyde Mardon. And they also change established characters' powers, as seen with Gypsy and Golden Glider. Those two did completely different things in the comics. He doesn't use them more obviously (despite having already caused an earthquake and opened breaches) to not give away his identity to the heroes. As he feels so godly, he perhaps thinks they're not fit to witness his full powers as they are beneath him... Kinda like how Cisco "defines his own cool" Cisco would still not want to get stabbed because of "his cool" That Jessie stab looked more like PIS to me, but still, Vibe powers don't boost his reflexes like speedster powers do, if he could've reacted to that stab in time he would have but with jessie being all "this is for Wally" he really should've been able to see it coming Well i meant if it really was Cisco in there. He wouldn't just drag the piece of his armor over. Vibrational Blast to Jesse. Then drag the piece of the suit over. Same with Iris's death, don't even risk the chance he can stop you. Use your speedster stopping powers, then kill Iris.
