Barry Allen: The Flash (Silver/Bronze Ages + current) Appreciation 2019

[liwanag]

Same with GL I don't know much about The Flash so this is all I got from DC's new blurry timeline

Generation 2 The Space Age 15-year time window
Year 1 Batman and Superman debuts
Year 2 Barry Allen debuts as The Flash
Year 3 Wally West debuts as Kid Flash
Year 5 Something Flash of Two Worlds? I can only make out the "two"
Year 11 Professor Zoom something?
Year 13 Barry Kills Professor Zoom? - You guys need to confirm on this one. I think I remember Barry being tried right before Crisis but I'm not sure.
Year 15 Crisis on Infinite Earths - Barry dies - Wally West debuts as The Flash

Generation 3 The Age of Crisis 15-year time window
Year 6 Zero Hour
Year 11 Infinite Crisis
Year 15 Blackest Night - Flashpoint - Barry Returns

Generation 4 The Flashpoint Age 5-year timeline - confirmed as Didio posted a clear version
Year 2 Wally and Bart disappear into Time Stream
Year 3 Rebirth - Wally returns
Year 4 Dark Nights Metal - Bart Returns

thanks dude. i appreciate your efforts.

how does this fixed timeline work again?

barry worked as a superhero for 14 years and sacrificed his life in crisis. then returned to life after 15 more years? and he's been around 4 more years since his rebirth?

I don't know what they're trying to do with this "ultimate" timeline, but there's no way that Barry has been The Flash for 30+ years. The guy is not in his 50s or 60s.

My guess is that the timeline shows how things would be in the DC universe if time flowed normally and most of the events that are referenced in the timeline got retconned due to the various Crisis.

Pretty much yeah

About 20 years. He'll be about 40s.

In Gen 4 there's "Booster aware of timeline change, vanishes" so there's a timeline change.

That would make the most sense.

I'm...not really sure what's going on with this one .

The pasta represents the lightning effect we see when the Flash runs.

And now I've gone down a rabbit whole and am snooping on the site.

Man, I really loved the New 52's idea that Barry's suit was a bunch of individual pieces that were connected together with speed force energy.

Only 2 or 3 artists were able to make that visually work in my opinion.

Jumping back into DC, and wondering how everyone would rank Williamson’s storylines.

Also, how did DC not put Kenneth Rocafort on this book? His style would fit perfectly with the Flash aesthetic.

I will never be crazy about all the lightning crackles around Flash when he runs. I’m old I know. Sometimes it looks ok but it’s never been my thing.
