Right. Any faster and Velocity is basically a gust of wind and hits with the force of a butterfly.
I do not know if anyone else has mentioned this, but Legend is also capable of going fast. Really, really fast. It is heavily implied that he possesses Eden's interstellar travel shard. During an interlude Legend explains that the only thing limiting his speed is his ability to control the flight. The faster Legend goes, the more his mind shuts down. Legend even speculates that the trade-off between speed and consciousness is perfect for handling the boredom of traversing vast differences, like those between stars.
Legend can certainly clock is speeds in excess of 800 miles per hour. I'd guess his limit is either the speed of light, or if he can travel faster then it is possible he only has a maximum acceleration, not a maximum velocity.
EDIT: The fastest estimated speed I've seen for The Flash was 9.4 million times the speed of light. I cannot find the source, but someone analysed a comic where Barry saved a city full of people from a nuclear explosion after the bomb detonated.

Its even faster, there is a youtube video earlier in the thread which measured the fastest The Flash has ever ran, which was to out run instant teleporting from the edge of the universe to earth. the calculation was seed to be faster then the smallest time measurable
edit: Here it is, from page 8

In a video on this thread. His fastest speed is faster than a Plank Instant, which is the distance light travels between two points on a molecule. He was literally every where and every when at the same time, arriving before instaneous movement, therefore being somewhere before he left to go there.

Parts of her body were phasing in and out as she was trying to warn Legend and even then she was very blurry, possibly due to ultra-fast vibration. A piece of paper probably wouldn't have been too blurry to read anything while she held it and likely woulda disintegrated if she let it go. Trying to write a message on something in the past would've been at least as problematic as speaking verbally as her phasing n and out might have made writing difficult.
In the show, he can, with a little help. The first test of the Tachyon Enhancement tech he went to the past to get the design data for resulted in Flash accidentally travelling between shows for a guest shot on Supergirl, where he helped her fight Silver Banshee and Livewire before returning to Earth-1 seconds after he left(the guys at STAR Labs didn't even realize he'd been gone, despite him having been on Supergirl's Earth for a day or two before Supergirl helped him make the return trip)

What is this weird trend lately in Worm fics with killing poor Ashbeast?
This is the third or forth snippet I've seen in the last month lumping him in with the likes of the S9 and their ilk.
Hasn't the poor boy suffered enough?

Yes, which is why you give him a quick death.
In all seriousness though, Ash Beast is incredibly destructive - the only thing keeping him from being an S-Class threat is his movement speed. He has no control whatsoever over his power. If you want to deal with him non-lethally, you need a power nullifier who's tough enough to get close to him. The only person I can think of who might fight the bill is Hatchet Face, and a) I kinda doubt he's that insanely durable, and b) he's a member of the Slaughterhouse 9.

Barry Allen managed to travel to Earth-1 and he's the 2nd slowest of the flashes soo...yeah. Wally is/was the fastest(?) Flash, Wally can perform the Infinite Mass Punch which as you may have guessed from the name is a punch that goes so fast it's reached well...infinite mass.
edit: Jay Garrick was the low-end for the flash family
also cannot english

Actually, I think Johnny and Jesse Quick were the low ends of that bell curve. (Not sure if they strictly COUNT as part of the "Flash Family," though.)Barry Allen managed to travel to Earth-1 and he's the 2nd slowest of the flashes soo...yeah. Wally is/was the fastest(?)

Whilst being speedsters I don't think they were either a Flash/Kid Flash/Flashette(which is of course a female Flash...duh)/Flashkick(portmanteau)/what have you...hell Reverse Flash is 'closer' in 'relation' than the Quicks.

When I was writing that I almost threw in the 3 blasphemies and Nilbog, but decided the point could be made with what I had. Ashbeast was a left over casualty of an earlier draft.

While that is certainly an effective way to remove any possible threat posed by the victim of a terorrist with a Master rating, it's kinda hard on the victim, sets a terrible precedent, and really isn't something that a hero has any business doing.
And the Siberian would survive it. You can't punch an idea to death. The side effects might kill Manton though, which is just about as good. But depending on what his maximum range is, he might well survive by not being in that half mile radius, and if he survives, the Siberian will just shrug it off.
Like the Bonesaw solution, it really sucks for any victims of the Nine, and isn't really something a hero should be doing. In the Wormverse, showing you are capable of something like that is likely to result in being classified as an S-Class Threat (the same rating the Nine have) and the issuance of a kill order -- yes, even for a hero. Governments really, really dislike having walking WMDs around. Having one that is that dangerous without any hyperbole? They tend to base their reactions on the concept that capability equals intent and react accordingly.
Siberian wouldn't be affected by it except as a possible result of one of the side effects.

If an omake becomes canon, that is exactly what happened.
To be perfectly fair.... she's an S-class threat with a standing kill order and a penchant for horrific atrocities on MASSES of civilians. The fact that she's a young girl who was manipulated into committing the crimes IS horrible, but... the naked glee that she shows in the committing means my sympathy is... sorely lacking.
This solution is actually almost humane. (Almost.)
Pretty sure the blast wave would get him, though. You make a half mile just "cease to exist" and the effects are going to be felt for quite a ways.
Once the S9 get their hands on them, pretty much any victim would probably PREFER a nice, quick atomization over whatever horror they've decided on inflicting that day.
Yeah... except they're not THAT stupid. The choice between "issue a kill order on this hero who's been Doing Good" or "draw up plans, keep them VERY quiet, and keep her on OUR SIDE" is... pretty clear cut, I'd say.
Plus, it's the S9. You would REALLY have to work it to sell a kill order to the public for anyone taking them out in any way. And you WOULD have to sell it to the public, because that shit would leak. ("Dude, you know the Flash? Girl who killed the Slaughterhouse? Yeah, my asshole boss just signed a kill order for her! What the fuck, man!")
