"The New Accelerator" is a science fiction short story by H.G. Wells, first published in 1901.

The story centers on Professor Gibberne, a brilliant but eccentric chemist and physiologist, who invents a miraculous new drug called the "New Accelerator." Intended initially as a powerful nervous system stimulant, the elixir accidentally turns out to accelerate the user's physiological and cognitive processes by thousands of times.

The narrative follows Professor Gibberne and his nameless narrator friend as they test the drug. Under its influence, the external world appears to slow down almost to a standstill, with people frozen mid-motion like statues. This allows the protagonists to move around an entire town in a matter of moments, experiencing a vivid and unsettling sense of time distortion and near-invisibility.

Wells uses this premise to explore the exciting possibilities and potential dangers of unchecked scientific discovery and to muse upon the nature of time and human experience, touching on themes that would later be popular in superhero fiction involving super-speed.
