Anyways, sweet. Faster friends ftw!! Was wondering if these two would be friends in this new 52 world. I've always liked that a speedster always seemed to befriend a Lantern. Hal and Barry's friendship was the best though. They felt more like brothers...more than Kyle and Wally anyway.

Cool. Is there a World's Finest series in the New 52? If not, maybe, to avoid the overuse of Batman, they should change it into a 'team-up' title. So, like, for one story arc, it's about Batman and Superman teaming up. Then the next story arc is about Flash and Green Lantern teaming up. Then they could do an arc with Aquaman and Wonder Woman. Then, like Nightwing and Cyborg. Supergirl and Batgirl. Martian Manhunter and Green Lantern. Flash and Superman. Batman and Wonder Woman.

Just keep changing up the team every story arc, over and over. Similar to The Brave And The Bold comics, except not just about Batman teaming up with different heroes.

The design team behind Doom also did Crisis on Two Earths and the Young Justice cartoon. That's about as close as we're going to get, given what happened to Young Justice.

Sort of a dumb idea - I thought the GL rings had to choose their wearer, almost like Thor's Hammer determines if they are "worthy"?

I love the Hal and Barry relationship. We need a Brave and the Bold film!

@Celtic i always thought the best way to build up to Justice League was "Worlds Finest" and Then "Brave and the Bold"

Is it me, or is New 52 GL kind of a wuss?


I mean, look at this. This isn't a team-up. This is Flash saving a damsel in distress.

Will have to pick this one up. Looks good!

On a completely different topic .. anyone know where Sephiroth211 got his avatar from? Looks like a movie perhaps?

Wally West? Are you high? That hack of a Speedster shouldn't ever be brought back.
