Man. Grant always comes up with the goods & then some. The real deal

[Iluvitloud1976]

Grant is the man!!

Good God--Barry Allen AGAIN? Can't he do another Flash? Or Multiverse Flashes? This is market saturation.

Give us a break, DC. Do Jay. Wally. Someone else. Anyone else. Barry's in the Flash Earth 1 book, his own book, and now this.

I'm sticking with the show, where the other Flashes will appear, and giving the books a pass. Nice to see that DC's as limited and narrow-minded as ever with the comics.

Because Grant Morrison has just written a zillion Barry Allen stories?

And, his alternate reality Barry is exactly the same as the TV Barry or the DCU Barry in anything except name and basic job?

There are enough iterations of Barry on TV, Earth-Prime, and Earth-One. Last I checked, there were other Flashes out there. Red Racer, perhaps? What's the point of a Multiversity OGN if you're not really exploring it?

I'm glad you know how building a brand works, then.

[PennyDreadful]

Branding? What does that have to do with branding? Sheesh. These aren't on the "main" Earth, so why not vary the formula a bit?

Uh I'm pretty sure Grant Morrison or any writer for all that matter should be allowed to use whoever the hell he wants to use as the Flash. Doesn't make sense to kowtow out of some arbitrary sense of market balance.

But nice to see that fanboy entitlement is well preserved on this forum.

[PennyDreadful]

Huh? What does entitlement have to do with anything? I'm pretty sure that liking other Flashes is simply a sign that readers have varied tastes.

But if it's a story Morrison wanted to do for years, that's another story. Given that Multiversity was a long time coming, who knows how long it'll be before these Multiversity OGNs see print? Oy.
