I cant tell you how good it is for DC, to have Barry Allen back as the Flash. Wally West who? BA is the real speed demon.

Im loving the Flash comics but I want a new artist. I dont care too much for the current artist, just seems too childlike.
@TheGreenRanger
I agree. Im only 21 so I wasnt even alive for Barry Allen until his return, but he is by far my favorite Flash.

No way wally is the best, and everyone knows it. He actually has a personality. Plus im sorry but for most of the people on this site, he is the flash for our generation accept it.

Does Flash have a weakness? Doesn't the Speed Force essentially make you omnipotent?

Once I found out Barry was back in the new 52, I didn't wait any longer to pick up the Flash issues.

been reading this series, and so far its been really good. Francis manipal's art is amazing, and how he uses the flash's power is great.

Cant wait to see whats in store the the fastest man alive, in the next arc.

barry has always been and will be my favorite flash. wally always came off as that comic relief where he gets knocked out before anything happens. thats just my opinion though

@luckylu-I agree. Wally's personality was alright, but to me he will always be a cheap knockoff of the original scarlet speedster. I did like that when Wally became The Flash that he was definitely his own person, but they might have tried too hard.

IMO Wally West was the one the made the Flash cool and interesting. Much like what Kyle Rayner did with Green Lantern over Hal Jordan. Plus Wally was the most powerful Flash.

How can Wally West be the most powerful Flash when Barry himself generates the entire speed force with every step. Wally would have no powers to tap into without Barry! Don't get me wrong I like Wally but Barry is the best Flash and always will be the most powerful! The man ushered in not one but two different eras for DC comics! He completely reset the Dc universe...twice! Now that's powerful! Once with Crisis in the 80's and now with the New 52! Barry Rules!!!
