    Default Christopher Priest should write The Flash next

    In just two issues of his Justice League run Priest has brought back a Silver Age staple to The Flash. Science! In the Silver Age, Barry would give us “Flash Facts” as he used science and physics to save the day. Using actual scientific theories was something that made The Flash a bit different from other superheroes. Barry is a science nerd who truly geeks out over getting to put scientific theories to the test while fighting the bad guys. Being connected to the Speed Force allows him to experiment with physics in ways real scientist can only theorize.

    I’ve loved how Priest has written Barry in Justice League 34 and 35. He breaks down the task at hand with scientific facts, leaving the other members with a puzzled look on their faces. Or as GL Simon Baz responded “There he goes - Barry zipping up his CSI windbreaker again...Speak English, Amtrak!”

    I also loved how Priest had Barry throw in some giant monster movie references and trivia. Barry Allen, the ultimate superhero nerd.

    Plus the only time I’ve ever found Kid Flash interesting is when Priest writes him.

    We haven't seen enough of his Barry for me to judge, honestly. He was barely on panel in his first issue and didn't even speak until the second.

    I'd prefer to see him on Green Lanterns, honestly.
    You are my favorite thing, Peter. My very favorite thing.

    Really? Jessica is the only character on the League I think he writes badly.

    I'm not even reading Flash but I definitely want Williamson to stay on the book as long as possible. If anyone has enough love for the Flash Family to bring them all back, it's him.

    He admitted that he didn’t know them that much

    I say stick with Williamson. He isn't doing anything groundbreaking, but it is consistently very good. One of the better books since Rebirth.

    I'd like Williamson to take over Hal Jordan as well. He wrote him really well in his brief guest appearance, and the two properties are basically "brother" franchises.

    Let Priest's handprints expand on several titles. I hope he gets to write Justice league for several years that will at least give him a chance to do all the big major characters in group stories.
