Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
As announced by Dan Didio and Bob Wayne in Philly and Heroes Con, respectively, next week's Flash: The Fastest Man Alive #13 will be the last issue of the young series, which was just launched last year. Although DC is keeping mum about what happens in that pivotal issue, its story will act as a precursor to the announced return of Mark Waid to The Flash beginning in the fall with penciler Daniel Acuna (Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters).
And before the Waid-penned series officially starts with new (or, technically, old) numbering -- picking up at #231 where it left off when The Flash series ended with #230 in January 2006 -- DC will release a special issue called All Flash #1 in September. Written by Waid, the issue will feature work by a slew of DC artists, including Acuna, Karl Kershl, Shane Davis and Joe Bennett.

just seems kind of dumb
I swear to God, if someone had once told me that I would be actively avoiding a book about Bart Allen, I would've called them a liar and insulted their clothes. Hopefully this will either lead to Bart going back to his roots as a spastic hero, with Wally or Barry coming back to be written by Waid, or Waid will do justice to Bart's character and make the whole aging thing seem worthwhile. Or they're going to kill him off.

I did not.
The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun.
Takes us home Waid, take us home.
And Daniel Acuna? Im swooning. Seriously guys, you should see me swoon.

Maybe they will bring Wally AND Barry back and it will be like a FLASH CORPS thing.
Heinberg doesn't count until he can deliver more than six issues in a year.

And I would rather see an all-star team try to fix Nightwing than Green Arrow
Nightwing has been fixed. You may not care for Wolfmans last arc, but trust me...Nightwing has been fixed.

Christos Gage. The dude nailed Ollie in his Deadshot mini, and he writes fun, scrappy superhero stuff with a lot of heart. Really, pretty much anyone but Winick would be just divine.

IS.
JAWSOME.
And no more Scott McDaniel. I think I heard you say you liked him Munch, but I just couldn't see it. Awful match for the book.

DANANANANA WAID IS WRITING FLASH AGAIN DANANANANA GONNA BE AWESOME DANANAN. DANANANANAAAA.
WAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIID
meedlymeedlymeeeeee
I think he ranges between good and awful. Like, I can be looking at his stuff and for just a second say, "Man, this dude's like Phil Hester only a little bit worse," and then I hit a panel where someone's eye is sliding off their face, or their jaw's all distended, or some other anatomical monstrosity presents itself.
I do respect his speed though. It seems like he's always got a ton of projects floating around.

Wolfman was great until Andreyko's annual
then Wolfman is shit because he can't fucking touch that
Oh dear.
i don't mind bringing back Wally
or fuck, as much as I hate to say it, even Barry
but don't fucking kill bart
It's a pretty shitty move there if they do.
But they might not kill him.
At least they aren't going to rape him first.
look at all the holes in his costume
Dr. Light may have already gotten to him
EDIT - Eh, fuck it, I didn't know it's on the front page of Newsarama.

That's not in shops yet.
Man, what a faggot.

If that doesn't happen, Wally returns or the Legion calls down the lightning to bring Barry back.
Or they could rescue his soul, and Barry stays in a never ending battle against Death to make sure he can't chase down Bart, then the Legion ressurect Barry not knowing that Bart is fucked. A general OH SHIT! moment ensues as we have multiple Flash's operating at once, with split stories as one goes to JLA, the other 2 stay in Flash (say Barry and Bart work on evading Death) like in GLC.
Yeah I know none of that is very good or ideal, but hasn't Bart suffered enough bullshit from crappy writers? I'm grasping at straws as to how they can somehow not kill him without going back on their "No one comes back from the dead for quite a while" statements. Then again, depending on whoever the Legion brings bak will technically ruin that statement unless it's a Legion member that comes back to life.
