So, while not dead, looks like he might be a candidate for a "Have You Seen Me?" milk carton?

I don’t read Justice League, but I thought that was supposed to be Barry’s gig for awhile?

He was in both the latest issue of Justice League and Infinite Frontier.

I think Bendis' JL is building up to a roster transition.

You want to condemn Barry to being badly-written by Bendis?!?

Where is Barry's dad Henry, though? In a perfect world (for Barry), his father should be alive, well, and together with the family as well.

Maybe he passed away like Pre Crisis.

That would make sense, especially as enough time has passed that Don, Dawn, and Wallace exist.

Maybe he passed away like Pre Crisis.

Pre-FLASHPOINT, both of Barry's parents outlived him.

Did Barry's parents know he was The Flash by the end of his pre-CoIE run?
(I had taken a break from most comic books around then, so I don't remember.)

Yes. I seem to remember Barry revealing his superhero identity to his parents during the time when he was on trial for killing the Reverse Flash.

So pariah is trapping characters in “idealized” worlds where they and their families are the only superheroes?
