Here's an excerpt from their report which also cover a few other Scarlet Speedster related things - including speculation on when we might see him on the big screen.



"Flash alter ego Barry Allen, who plies his trade in the Central City police crime lab when not in his red costume, gets thrown into more procedural adventures when the new creative team of writers Robert Venditti and Van Jensen and artist Brett Booth debut in The Flash No. 30, out April 23.

A week later, they reintroduce Wally West, another guy who’s worn the Flash togs, into the DC Universe in The Flash Annual No. 3."

Always been a Fan of Wally/Flash. This is good news. Just my opinion. Got the receipt to prove it.

@intruder

Actually that may be true for Wally but with Green Lantern it's subjective. Hal has been the most focused upon and has way more depth and character to him than Kyle ever did, but your right Wally and Kyle deserved better.

And on another note do you ever post something that isn't completely annoying. I mean seriously to continuously chastise DC in every thread is getting annoying; all I have seen you do on this site is start arguments.

I've always preferred Barry over Wally and Hal over Kyle though I do love seeing Barry mentor Wally and I would like to see maybe Hal mentor Kyle.
Fastestmanalive
Fastestmanalive - 1/13/2014, 4:23 PM
But why is he blue? And looks like negative Flash.

Oh who gives a [frick]?

The blue doesn't do much for me, but I'm not going to bleep all over them for giving me something I wanted. Thank you, DC.

I think this is a phase like when Superman went all Blue and lightning, that shit sucked! Wally will eventually go back to the red!

Blue Flash?

Well, I GUESS this will distinguish him from Barry Allen... but the fact is, Wally West became a redundant character the minute they decided to bring Barry Allen back as the Flash. Mind you, I LIKED Wally, but they'd grown him into the part of THE Flash over a couple of decades. When you bring back a more definitive version of the character, what are you supposed to do with the neophyte? (The Green Lantern books had a hell of a time doing that with Kyle Rayner...)

I would think that this is ridiculously unnecessary, given Barry's new status as the only Flash in the DCU... but I really can't say, because I don't know what they're doing with the character. Maybe they have some cool New-52 take on Wally that makes him more than just ANOTHER guy named The Flash, but... well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

batcheeks8 - 1/13/2014, 4:35 PM
I'd be shocked if he really was blue

since, you know

RED is the unbeatable fashion trend of the New 52

It looks like from the pic that its some kind of alternative reality or timeline.

That Captain Cold for example is wearing a different costume from the new 52.
And if you look at the different images u could see other things that are similar to the Flash history we know but with some differences.
Fastestmanalive
Fastestmanalive - 1/13/2014, 4:50 PM
So Wally is probably a Flash from a different earth or timeline.
Fastestmanalive
Fastestmanalive - 1/13/2014, 4:55 PM
Also you could see two distinct different Flash's in the pic.

One is red with yellow lightning which probably Barry and the other which is either a very dark red or a muted black, definitely not blue though, with silver/white lightning which I guess is Wally.

But good to see that they have different costumes and even different lightning. And that maybe Wally is not blue. I mean I'm just glad he's back no matter which color but I would prefer some type of red rather then blue.

I know that. You didn't have to ruin the trolling......party pooper

The part that is also interesting is u have half of Barry's face and parallel to that on the bottom half of Wally's.

And besides that Barry's costume is different Barry's exposed skin looks normal but Wally's white and shiny. Is Wally human or what?

I am happy that they are giving Wally a distinct character even though personality he already was but now it looks like they are making him different in other ways.

I do like the white eyes. That was always cool nd different about Wally.
