Does anyone have any good recommendations of Wally stories outside of his solo series, JLA, and NTT?
Unless you don't count JLA spinoffs or other kinds of JLA comics as part of JLA (JLI/E, JLA Classified, JL Elite, etc) then not really. He appears in the rare one shot (Flash and Nightwing by Waid, for instance) but Wally's appearances don't really span out beyond that. Wally was never really a major character in DC's eyes to get any significant elseworlds or something like Batman and Superman have 20 of. The best you might get is the original, good Flashpoint but Wally's only got a bit part in that as Barry is the main character.
Bummer but thank you!! I am going to start reading his time as the Flash including his appearences in team ups and spin-offs, I've only read Waid's first 4 volumes so I am excited to begin the journey from the start

If they screw up the twins I will be beyond pissed. Fuck King and this weird ass bull that he's calling a story. There better be someone using that image to do it. I swear to god.
On a more positive note in regard to the green Lantern Wally. I have them and it's so cool.
The twins could work, if done correctly. Especially with jon and damian. They could have a whole generation.But, don't see that happening since what happened to jon? Man! Rebirth is really dead isn't it!
But, i would rather they allow Wally to be established in this universe as a flash.start Building him up again. Get him out of death return cycle he is stuck in. If i were the editor i would ban any writer from killing him, for the foreseeable future.
Flash/GL GL/Flash Faster Friends were good fun. Wally & Kyle with Jay and Alan.
The Iron Heights one-shot is an absolute cracker.
Darkstars #18-20
Flash Plus Nightwing - story was OK, but it really highlighted the Wally/Dick friendship
Time Flies - Another one shot that was another pleasant surprise.
All worth a read!

"My name is Wally West. I'm the fastest man alive!"
I'll try being nicer if you try being smarter.
Well we just got the next generation on YJ with enough kids to make a nice size league,so I'm expecting DC to capitalize on what the show set up and makes popular for them, hopefully before the end of time.
BTW King has Lois lane being killed in the Walmart giant comic over and over again to show supermans anxiety about not being there for her, so don't expect king to do anything that isn't snuff sick shit for the twins. Maybe a actual good well balanced comic writer will use and fix them someday

Nice user name. . Welcome.
As everyone else said, besides for Wallys main series there isn't mych beyond the JLA and odd one shots. There is some cool Titans comics he is in though that is pretty good. Including a story in 90s Jurgens TT and the Titans series in the early 2000s.
This is an odd one but Act of God really shows Wally in a cool light and is one of the reasons I like that story so much.
But honestly Wallys main series is just so good that it more than satisfies me. But I get you. More Wally is always good.
Happy reading and enjoy. You'r in for a great ride.

Well, now I'm really curious about Act of God. Got it in a sweet hardcover edition but I never took the time to read it.
The story makes no sense and annoys the hell out of me. It's basically a book that worships Batman by de-powering everyone else. Most of the powered heroes come across as power hungry losers or junkies who miss the hero life because they were "gods".
Also Wondy becomes Catholic. WTF??!?!

Nnoooo!!! How dare you??
No, I hear what your saying and I agree it doesn't portray all the heroes in the best light like GL or Superman. Especially Superman who is the greatest hero because of the man and not the powers .But I do like how it showed Clark and Diana coming together.
So I'll admit it does have its problems but I think they are out weighed by the good things in here.
First off its a really cool premise and interesting idea. Who are these characters underneath their powers and what would they do without them? A proper way of deconstructing the hero.
I really like these superheroes for the character themselves and not just their powers and costumes. So seeing them stripped down to just that is really great to see. I really like seeing Wally, Linda, Aquaman and others adapting and fighting crime even though they are now powerless. It shows these heroes are heroes not because of their powers but because of who they are.
It also doesnt hurt that my favorites, Wally and Linda, are part of the heroes that overcome this test of God. Also their new identities are pretty cool.
