Wally West: Flash Appreciation 2018

[Eto]

Flash War! Long story short, Hunter Zolomon is back, has some new powers (strength force, sage force,) and he triggered Wally to remember his kids Jay and Irey.

Now what is interesting that yeah I agree Wally is mentally damaged, the dude is no longer married and has no clue about the wherabouts of his kids. However, sending him to sanctuary? Really? Isn't that place supposed to be a place where psycho's get treated (Harley, Ivy and the likes). Wally is not a psycho smh. Moreoever, it doesn't help that Tom King is writing this limited series called Heroes in crisis. Hopefully he'll do Wally jjustice (my fav character next to Bruce and Jason) but it's highly unlikely having read dozens issues of his (IMO) worst Btman run to date.

What are your thoughts? (I’ve only gotten to read it a couple of days ago)

I've been avoiding Tom King's writing like the plague, but I didn't think Sanctuary had been described as a place only for "psychos". I thought it was more of a healing center for people suffering from such things as PTSD and other mental tragedies.("Psychos" sounds more like they belong in padded rooms in a loony bin.)

Fair enough. I’m just not to keen on the book and King’s writing, because make no mistake, he WILL write a brooding, 3edgy Wally for sure.

Sanctuary is not about psychos being treated. It's about heroes dealing with Trauma. Harley and Ivy's inclusion is just another in a long line of throwing Harley where she doesn't belong and justifying the story around her or just plain ignoring how downright idiotic their place in the story is. They're the odd ones out, not the heroes.

Peruse PREVIEWS, read reviews, trade wait if applicable.
I am so glad that my modern era 'rebirth' reading of comics started with trades in 2009 and not floppies such as I read in the '60s. Saved me a lot of money. The only times I regretted buying a trade was when I failed to do what I listed and just jumped the gun buying sight unseen. Never again. Research, research, research!

I really liked Wally's Flash Rebirth suit. Wish it would have stuck around longer. Beautiful art as well.

Also loved that it was Wally's own and very different from Barry's.

I agree on the costume and damn that is such a great scene between Dick and Wally. One of the only small good things to come from Cry for Justice.

I know. I almost wish we can go back to that considering how the Titans and Wally are being handled these days.

And it looks like Roy won't be that much better with Heroes in Crisis.

Yea the artist here makes it look real good. Especially with that painted effect.

Not that EVS is any kind of pushover.

Merge the two characters, the classic Linda fighting bad guys like Kobra or Kadabra with Young Justice Artemis, would be great.

Donna wasn't even a phase, it was just a terrible idea and a little blip on their history.
