Wally West: The Flash Appreciation 2020

[Mr.B]

Why bedsides the obvious book says so. Honestly I’m all for Wally preventing Zoom
From changing the past. Especially Barry’s as that was a step too far for their rivalry.

Negative speed force.

Do you guys think dr. Manhattan left some of his personality in wally?like wally being able to talk to him.you know hulk and banner thing.

[Timber Wolf-By-Night]

Looks like they're turning Wally into Parallax from Zero hour.

That's the first thing I thought of, too. Great, if Didio couldn't get away with turning Wally into a villain the first time, he'll just try, try again.

If that happens it would be against what's been foreshadowed. But, i would not count anything out. It's dc.

I'm still waiting to see if they will say that Wally's out of character part in the HIC garbage was caused by the dark multiverse influence. He is dealing with that in Flash Forward right now.

But that's probably too easy and simple an answer for DC to use.

I would be really surprised if they adress HiC ever again. From what I understand, Lobdell, Booth and the others see what happened at Sanctuary as an accident. It just happened and that's it. I think it's too late to RetCon now. Or, if there's a RetCon, maybe it will happen after Wally restore the timelines in Generation Zero.

It's never too late. I hope...

I hope the 5G timeline completley retcons out HiC and Sanctuary. It's practically the new Identity Crisis.

Yeah, but... I also don't want him to be the Sanctuary killer. I'm in denial.

[Spider-Ham]

It’s even worse than Identity Crisis. DC tried to salvage a thing or two in 52. HiC ? Nobody wants to touch that thing. It might be the reason we don’t have a RetCon yet.

But, yeah, if 5G restore the timelines, just like you, I hope it erase everything HiC-related. Give us back Roy with Lian and everything is forgiven.

It’s Dan Didio he’s kind easy to read considering how much he dislikes certain characters that have an impact on DC and its fans.

It's really annoying when websites do the 'click for more' each page to artificially up their viewer count. So I didn't read past the first page.
My big worry is that cosmic-strength characters are harder to write good stories for. I mean what will be Wally's kryptonite? If he doesn't have one.... then yeah, they might be steering towards making him a 'Parallax'. I don't like villains. The only thing this would do is make me not want to read Wally stories -AND MORE IMPORTANTLY- not have anything more to do with comics that are not fully in a comedy venue (think Lego movies) I'd say I could tolerate a very short******d turn as a villain-against-their-will, but we already had that with HIC and I didn't tolerate that well at all.

Test. Let's try this again: short******d turn as a....
Seriously? Wtf is wrong with the term 'short hyphen lived' that it keeps getting asterixed out?

[married guy]

Ugh.

I'm going to play along again with DC, but I honestly couldn't have my expectations any lower.

[AJpyro]

I've given my bro my Wally West comic collection. I want to help him get more. Besides the Waid series and Johns, what are some good stories?
