    Default Your favourite Green Lantern/Flash duo?





    With all the talks of a Green Lantern/Flash movie in 2017 I thought it might be a good time to make a poll about which dynamic we like best.

    I'm going with Hal and Barry, despite Wally being my favourite Flash.

    I think all the dynamics work really well though.

    I liked Hal and Wally even though he has done more with Barry.

    Hal and Barry for me. Considering they're both police officers (Hal's the cosmic patrolman, Barry the earthbound CSI wizard), it's kinda like a buddy cop movie whenever they get together. At least it was back in the old days of the DC Universe.

    Tough choice here between Alan/Jay and Hal/Barry but Hal is my favorite male DC character so he and Barry won out by a hair.

    Hal & Wally.

    Kyle & Wally are a close second; the reason being Wally was much more experienced than Kyle, yet they were usually written as peers simply due to both being second generation.

    Despite my golden years with DC including the Wally and Kyle incarnations, I like the Hal and Barry BFF situation. Even though I didn't get a whole lot of it till recently, it always seemed so natural.

    LOL powers switcheroo...




    I liked Waid's take on them, somewhat two buddy cops dynamic, but with a twist.
    Barry being a - by the book, formal cop, a bit square, a bit o.c.d. in his real life and day job - And expressing an unimagined freedom in his secret superhero life.

    While Hal was the opposite, a free, sometimes drifter, somewhat reckless maverick in his real life - And in his secret Superhero life a formal cop who had to follow (although he rarely did) rules.

    They each envied aspects of the other.

    Not sure how they are playing it now.



    Also great image, by Ethan & Moose, what was this from? And where can I read the Sinestro Zoom team-up!

    This, pretty much. I way prefer Wally and Kyle individually but, when written well, Hal and Barry just play off each other perfectly. Waid's stuff was a perfect encapsulation of that and I really, really liked the recent annual with the two of them. In fact, I still find it hard to believe that that annual was part of the New 52 - it felt way to classic, way too fun and way to bright to fit into the general grimdark of the New 52 and/ or Geoff Johns' incredibly bland, if not outright terrible, characterization of these two characters.
