reason why didio was fired bleeding cool article
I thought this might be interesting to you guys. since, gen0 is where wally will be shortly
Parental care is way exhausting. Gained insight into what my parents went through when I was a baby. Not fun, but what ya gonna do? (Read comics, obviously.)
Since this is a Wally West appreciation thread, I am deeply appreciative of Lobdell and Booth fixing a grievous error that had caused me to lose all hope for the Wally West Flash this whole decade. Wally has been my favorite Flash for 3 decades primarily thanks to Waid and Johns, and to see the character and his family ejected into limbo really left me feeling hopeless for these wonderful characters. HEROES IN CRISIS only made it worse.
So imagine my joy at seeing the following happen in FLASH FORWARD #6:Wally reunited with his kids, who were alive and well in the multiverse; Linda’s memories restored; Linda and the kids reunited, alive and well on Earth-0, back where they belong; and Wally about to go on an amazing journey of a lifetime through the multiverse. As we know from the Johns era, Linda is Wally’s tether to his life, love and family on Earth, his beacon that will always ultimately help him find his way home, no matter the obstacles. That hasn’t changed; in fact, it’s now been restored. So I’m excited for the journey ahead.
Lobdell and Booth made this all possible, so I want to offer them my sincere thanks and gratitude for restoring hope and faith for this long-time Wally fan! You guys stuck the landing!

Didio leaving in no way guarantees the successful return of Wally West (although I certainly hope so).
Good luck to the bloke. I hope he finds success in whatever his future holds.
That out of the way, let's see if there IS a shift in the publishing mindset of DC Comics.
I really hope so.

I'll try being nicer if you try being smarter.

Indeed, it doesn’t. But Didio was also the guy who rejected 11 different pitches from only one creator in few minutes.
If we get someone more open minded, Wally will definitely come back.
I don’t even want me as the main Flash but I just want him back with his family and friends.
I am very excited for the future of Wally and the rest of the Titans for that matter now that Didio is gone.
Also, hopefully well be able to get an actual Flash family back with Wally, Barry , Bart, Jay and the rest actually interacting and talking to each other.

Ah Wally West, my all-time favorite super hero.
Nice to read such a thread, very nice indeed.
I'm actually not sure. Looks like from a Titans book from.the early 2000's though.
Was too funny not to share.
I.know he wasn't the only one making the decisions but he was one of.the major ones and expressed numerous times his dislike of Wally and his fans. We have heard from other DC employees of what he told them to do in handling, or mishandling Wally, and we have all seen the crap show and sabotaging of Wally since hes been around.
So I'm pretty hopeful that with him gone Wally has a much better chance of actually not being intentionally buried or sabotaged.
And maybe since Wally has a solid fan base and is fairly well.liked he might even be written well and given.good stories.
