Well maybe you should also give it a look at the thread that spreads false rumors by neonazis?

It is rather curious that only this thread was visited and had comments deleted, that in some cases were more tame than in the threads actually about Didio being fired.

A bunch of cool versions of Wally.

I may get warned and/or banned because of this, but I prefer to be upfront about it:
About a week ago I had a warning here (dunno if it was a reported post or not) for calling someone out on their BS. I replied to said warning saying that this thread needed a watchful eye (and let's be honest, it does). This may be the reason mods are overzealous: so, if needing to throw stones, throw them at me (DM is open), mods are just doing their job.

Okay, now I'm curious. Which spreads rumors by neoNazis? For that matter, what is the current definition for 'neoNazis' as the old one referred to people who followed or lauded Adolf Hitler of 1930-40's infamy?
Or maybe we should keep such stuff to the actual political thread rather than here where all I want is to see and hear about news concerning the fictional original Wally West with some sideroutes on his (also fictional) friends and non-fictional creator/writers.
What's the most up-to-date expectation for the release of a comic book trade of Fast Forward? I haven't been buying anything but 'old' Flash reprints so am out-of-touch on the time allowed between the last floppy and an actual trade compilation being made ready for purchase.

No Walter West?
I am the disappoint. :D

The Flash Forward TBP will be available on 05/27.
I hope you will like it as much as we did here ! :D

You asked for it you got it. Lol.

I know it's not Walter West but Wally in a Walter esque suit. A pretty cool one at that.

Bwahahaha! Close enough!
Man, I really wish they'd just put Wally in a slightly brighter version of Walter's suit. The "lightning over the shoulder" design is unique but evokes a bit of Jay Garrick, who was a big part of Wally's life for a time. It still looks like "the Flash" but is very distinctive from Barry. And the cowl doesn't remind me of Kid Flash. The cowl Wally has now really, really irks me for some reason. I do not like having reminders of Kid Flash in his costume, it makes it seem like Wally can't quite move on from his sidekick days.....it's like how they treat Nightwing, and I don't like it.

I have to agree. As much as I love to see Wally's hair (well, when it is done by an artist who knows how to draw hair) what I find irksome in the cowl is the top hem. It is so straight and high it puts his hair towards a mohawk and that is one hairstyle that I've never thought looked good on anyone at anytime anywhere in history.
Btw, thank you, Spider-Ham for the date. I'll start keeping an eye out for pre-orders at my stores of choice. Pretty sure I'll enjoy most of it. (Past the prologue dealing with HIC. No way am I going to enjoy seeing that hot mess again even in a Reader's Digest Condensed Version.) Wait a minute.... This is coming out within a week of Waid's latest trade reprint? Also Baron's? Better start adding to the May fund!
I swear we fans are the only ones who remember Walter and his costume. It'd have been pretty damn great if Wally had taken that look when Barry returned. I mean, the new costume is fine, I guess, even if it does make Wally look like he never quite moved on from being a sidekick, but Walter's costume was great, and given the particulars of Walter's history it'd have been pretty damn poignant.
