    Paving the way for the new Jesse Quick solo book.

    cancelled after issue 4.

    Zoom will be the new Flash.

    And a resurrected Wally will be the new Reverse Flash, a character so popular that he warrants his own solo series.

    He will be a lethal protector.

    He will also carry guns.

    the 90s will live again

    He'll fire a spray of bullets on the first page, and then spend the next 20 impatiently waiting for them to kill people.

    By issue three, he'll move on to simply hand-delivering the things into people's faces.

    HUGE spoilers over on the DC boards (you've been warned!):
    In Flash #13, Bart dies!

    And then in JLA #10, the Legionnaires use the lightning rods to bring back ... Wally West and family!

    I know that, but
    killing him is really completely unnecessary, especially since it seems he went out picking a fight he couldn't possibly win because someone called him a name.

    At least they didn't bring back Barry.

    And Bart's from the future so it's not like they can't get him again

    Yeah, but
    Wally and the Twins were in the Speed Force, so they could've aged and it's a new Kid Flash

    I think that would be pretty cool, having the whole family like that.

    It'd be like The Incredibles.

    But everyone is Dash.

    But maybe with Elastigirl for the hotness.

    I don't like it.

    I mean, The Flashes have never really been related to each other.

    Bart is Barry's grandson, but he wasn't related to Wally

    It's not a big thing, but I think it's neat that they were always just inspired by each other

    The explanation does make the most sense though. I mean, we've always kind of known something like that would happen since IC #4. Plus teases like "Don't get used to the first Flash you see.."

    OK, here's what I don't get, by those people choosing to walk into the speedforce, they willingly chose to do die?

    I was -never- given any impression that all of them going to the speedforce meant "Yeah, they're dead now." Which now makes the Lightning Saga retarded, because none of them were fucking dead in the first place. If they are, well that's horrible parenting just killing your whole family just so none of your enemies can do it first. "Ha beat you to it Captain Cold, now what? =P" You can't resurrect someone who's not dead, and you can't just yank someone out of the speedforce like that. If he/they want to come back, he could open a way for them himself.

    Also, that means 4 legionaries have to die to bring all 4 of them back. It's not like one is -really- dead and the other 3 are -kinda- dead in some way that a Flash can bring them back all by himself.

    This is all.......god........why can't we have nice things?

    I have no idea, it's a good thing All Flash is just a one shot special and then they go back to normal Flash.


    Still, DC you are handling this shit terribly, putting Mark Waid and Daniel Acuna on it is the only good thing I have seen come out of this.
    Bart's death and Wally's ressurection seems like they're going to be shit
    and the constant relaunching is getting goddamn annoying.

    But he's right and not being nitpicky. Wally never died.

    Even Bart said when he came back "Wally's taking a little break right now" or something to that effect.

    Aw, he's gonna cry.

    And yeah, for a relaunch of the Flash you'd think that they'd get one of their superstar artists to do the cover. Nothing against Sienkiewicz but his art's always been something of an acquired taste at best.

    And every time I see that title I expect to see a little "No Substance!" subtitle under it.

    Wally was dead in the sense that he was no longer an active part of the story and he was off-panel in some dimension doing who knows what.
