    Default Is Wally West the new Donna Troy?

    I mean, I know he's the new Dr. Manhattan, but in becoming so, has he now finally taken the crown of "most-convoluted" away from Donna Troy?

    He's not as convoluted as Donna.

    I have a feeling that all those Titans will become convoluted - if not already - before Didio is done at DC.

    I don't think inheriting cosmic time alteration powers is that game-changing for a Flash. This move, besides connecting Rebirth and Darkseid War a little more, does feel like a "Justice For Wally" scenario, since Manhattan is the one who took Wally away. And Wally does look good in blue. I think the Manhattan-Metron Fusion look will feel dated pretty quick and is probably not a permanent costume change for Wally, but it's cute for this story in a somewhat Geoff Johnsy kind of way, right? Gotta say that even with all the clues being there, this being the follow-up angle and impetus for the Rebirth-Rebirth is kind of neat.

    The only character half as close to being as convoluted as Donna is Hawkman. Poor Wally's been dragged through hell lately but his story and history isn't anywhere close to being as broken as Donna's.

    There is no Justice here, though. Manhattan and Wally never even interacted outside of a brief flashback. Nothing that he did to Wally was explained or made up for. There was never any comeuppance or even a significant character interaction to resolve this issue. Wally's just set off to the side to resolve it on his own since DClock rendered him defunct to the story he kicked off.

    Donna's current, canon history is less convoluted than Wally's current, but her all time history is certainly much more messy.

    Dc comics is convoluted. It doesn't matter.

    For that to happen, DC must destroy his origins. As long as his origins are solid, you can always go to basics with him.

    We need a "Where Are They Now?" for the New Teen Titans.

    It'd be... depressing!

    Wally West will never be Donna Tory, (as much as I like Donna) Wally is one of the conerstones of the DC universe. That being said it is an absolute disgrace!!! how they've treated a character that is beloved by so many fans, and for me personally having him kill off Roy Harper is unforgivable.
