[QUOTE=Maxi;5644276]At this point you guys are making me believe the most likely scenario is Wally getting shafted again.[/QUOTE]
There's a sort of built in skepticism and pessimism amongst Wally Fans. We've been lied to and fed sweet nothings and then been disappointed so many times for like 15 years.
This is the best it's been in awhile, admittedly, but it's going to take a bit to break that fear.

Situation looks pretty bleak for comics sales in general. I don't think the industry can afford two Flash titles like some people want, no matter how much his hardcore fanbase loves Wally. I still think bringing Barry back when Wally was already a well estabilished and highly beloved character was a horrible mistake that caused a lot of problems, but what can we do now that he also has his own fanbase. The accumulating continuity, constant change of directions due to whoever is running DC at a given time and overcomplication of things creates problems in the long run and satisfying everyone is becoming increasingly impossible in this modern comic landscape. I hope Wally stays for a while but best we can hope for is them co-starring in the title.

I guess it depends on the direction of the Infinite Frontier storyline since Barry's kind of stuck with that right now.

But Wonder Woman's sales is almost the same with Superman and Green lantern. But yet receives more mini and ongoing than the Flash. This is more like editorials choosy.

Wonder Woman only has 2 minis at the moment. One has already started (Black and Gold) the other starts in October. Both are 6 issues. That's not much. Plus Wonder Woman herself has one ongoing (unlike Batman), the other outgoing is Wonder Girl. I should mention that even the comics which have POC (legacy heroes) aren't doing well for DC. Look at Next Batman: Second Son for example. The notable exception is Static Shock ( who btw isn't a legacy hero).

In this weeks comics they have the teases for Infinite Frontier theyve been puting in the back and one of them shows Wally fighting Heat wave but with a red and silver suit instead of the red and gold.
Most likely a mistake but it looks pretty good and Id be happy if they made that Wally's look.

A distinct but minor color change is a fine way to differentiate it. Still looks like and comes off as The Flash.

Just giving Wally the cowl with his current look is exactly what I wanted so I’d be happy to have that look for him

Except he gets the Silver Medal.... ¬¬

And Barry gets the...yellow medal? So what?
-
Some people think
Gold/yellow - 1st tier heroes - Barry and Diana
Silver - 2nd tier heroes - Wally and Donna
