Pretty much in his whole DC work.

Hell, that started right away during his infamous Earth 2 run which was his first DC ongoing after the digital Injustice series.

Nah. I mean, his Batman and Heroes in Crisis are among the worst comic books from the last two decades (HiC being even worse than Cry for Justice to be honest) but still he produces quality titles...

I'm going to ask this right away: Shouldn't this book be called Green Lantern Corps?

Because that's pretty much what it is.

Mind you, that's one of the few weird decisions in an otherwise solid...

Oh yeah, and what about those parts when Wally starts talking to himself out of nowhere. A bit early to start going crazy.

(And those lines! "Yabba-Dabba-Doo!", "Shaking like Shakira!". Wally is...

This was what a lot of us were waiting for, the return of Wally West as The Flash... unfortunately, it doesn't come with the best execution.

Jeremy Adams is the one responsible for this back to...

Same problem with Phillips' Future State work, this actually doesn't have much to do with Harley Quinn and the universe that Palmiotti and Conner created. On the contrary, it goes for a much more...

Sheridan clearly wrote Red X fanfiction when he was young didn't he?

Aside from that being the biggest issue I have with this opening chapter, this was still pretty mediocre at best from a writing...

I suppose that after the years of the terrible editorially mandated "Ric Grayson", any kind of change would be welcomed, but could that change be made by any other writer that is not Tom Taylor?

Venditti did it better during his Freedom Fighters miniseries with Overman.

At this point this sort of retelling is overdone.

Bad decisions, forced events, lack of plannification, lots of unnecessary misery because "that's what sells", etc.

However, I was never able to really hate the guy. He was always kind in the...

This was kinda average. Nothing really bad but nothing really great either and I'm pretty sure it will fall into the pool of the many forgotten interpretations of the Crime Syndicate (the use of...

Oh for the love of, do you know what's not the right way to create a premise for a book?

"Yeah, let's create a new book for this well-known proactive team... except this time we will make them...

Greg LaRocque under Messner-Loebs' scripts is classic obviously and Scott Kolins was great during Johns' time but I believe Howard Porter nailed the vibrant and modern look that Wally's era was...

This is what I like to call "Rebirth 2.0"... except that half of the creative team is way less competent this time.

I'm sorry if I'm being overly-negative here but I can't help but feeling a sense...

Yes, Didio hated Wally.

Can we please get back on topic at discussing how bad the issue itself is?

Kinda said this already, yes.

At this point the problem is not that this is bad for Wally as a character, the problem is that is a bad title as a whole. It doesn't try to please people who like Wally, it doesn't try to please...

Jesus, where do I even start?

As I said before, the premise that Brandon Vietti came up with was kinda toxic but ultimately its worst sin is that the execution was pretty mediocre as a whole. Now...

Back then Ollie was supposed to be smug, that was the time when he was acting like a superhero mostly for the thrills.

Eh, it might be because I personally don't consider them "destructive", I feel like they add depth to the character and make him stand out from others.



Yeah, she writes him "fine" I guess but...

I will concede that rape is a problematic topic in and of itself so I guess I will stay with "Ollie cheated on Dinah with Marianne written by Grell".

Great Dinah writer. Not so much of an Ollie writer.

And the second time happened in the exact same run.

And the first one was later revealed to be consensual (Some might say it was a retcon buuuuut based on Ollie's character...)

The guy who made Ollie a cheater started way back in the 80s.

On the contrary, Winick's early run was probably one of the best due that completely nailed the dynamic of Team Arrow (Hell, that was pretty much where it was created) and introduced really important...
