I didn't start reading any flash books until the series by Geoff Johns, so I don't have a very great understanding of Barry Allen. I'm starting to like him, but I feel like Barry has the same personality as Superman. It seems like you could easily replace Barry Allen in his book with Clark, and nothing would be different. Can someone please explain the personality differences between Barry Allen  Superman to me? 

I think he's more goofy, whereas Superman is more serious.

" one is the flash and the other one isnt "

They both grew have the same morals. Doesn't mean they're the same person. As Jotham pointed out, one is more of a serious person. While the other jokes around a lot.

My only exposure to the Flashes has been in Geoff Johns's current Flash series and the Justice League cartoon. I heard that the Flash is not nearly as jokey as the cartoon, and in the series so far, Barry hasn't been cracking jokes like Spider-man or another jokey character. All I've seen of Barry is his serious side and his Midwestern morals, which is probably why he reminds me of Clark so much.If Barry is jokier than Clark, can someone recommend a good story in which he's really funny (or post a scan)? I want to get to know him better. "

Barry is a forensic scientist, Clark is a reporter (I guess).

" Yeah.But like I said has never been the joking type he may cut a joke here or thre beu he's not like Spiderman Nightwing Human torch or Deadpool "

LOL, so true

a friend of mine said Barry's more like Hank Hill than Clark Kent. it made me laugh.

For one Clark is Superman and Superman is Superman.

Superman's personality is definitely similar to Flash but they are definitely different. Superman is serious in nearly every occasion when he is in costume. Flash jokes around occasionally, being a great comedian, but knows when he needs to be serious. By the way, the Justice League cartoon showed Wally West as the Flash instead of Barry Allen.
