The Flash (Barry Allen) Appreciation 2024

[Frontier]

I'll take what Barry I can get.

It's looking like he'll have a much bigger focus in the main title moving forward.

Yeah, Spurrier mentioned in a relatively recent AMA that he was drawing Barry into his plans to the point it's "becoming a Tale Of Two Flashes".

That's cool. I'm glad Barry still gets to have something to do, even with Wally as the "main" Flash.

I'm still pulling for two Flash solo's someday...

That would be ideal. I love those weeks where I get to pick up both the main Flash book and the Jay Garrick book. I would be more than happy to pick up both a Wally book and a Barry one each month.

Same here .

The current title has Wally as the main Flash with Barry as a major supporting character. This is a new dynamic for them that we haven't seen before, and it's pretty interesting.

I'm reading the current series and enjoying it. I don't love Barry only appearing sporadically, but I also like Wally and don't mind him getting the bulk of the spotlight at the moment.

I love Barry. He's probably my favorite superhero, but he's been everywhere the past 15 years, so I'm okay with him taking a bit of a backseat to Wally right now. As long as he's alive and making appearances, I'm content.

I've been wondering if we might get an Absolute Flash book with Barry.

He's also probably going to be in that retro JL book they keep teasing.

I thought the rumors were that the Absolute Flash series would also feature Wally, but it would be nice for it to be Barry so each one had their own ongoing.

[Dred]

It's an ultimate universe thing which would presumably start with Barry, and likely cut him off from Jay and such. I imagine Earth One would've been similar, especially with Wally not even being Kid Flash in that universe. JMS just never completed it, unfortunately.

At the very least it looks like we're going to get more Barry in Absolute Power because he's prominently displayed with the rest of the Big Seven on promo art and has a "powerless" design.

I kinda like his design there.
