Flashpoint

[Primal Slayer]

So I wonder how they make such a big mistake when coloring a character, but atleast they got it straight in the end

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Haha, looks like somebody didn't notice Jesse Quick was already colored.

I kind of hate that she's wearing her dad's costume now, though. Her mom's looked better, plus I liked that she was acknowledging both sides of her heritage.

 

[fifthfiend]

I like how they had to make everyone else a more drab shade of red in yet another failed attempt to make Barry Allen seem exciting.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

They also had to hide half of Wally behind him so readers wouldn't notice that Wally's Flash costume is still totally better than Barry's.

 

[fifthfiend]

You know what would be a great Flash Event, would be a Flash Event where Barry Allen suddenly goes "Wait, I'm not really a good character at all, also, Wally knows like a million times more about the speed force than I do and is a much more accomplished hero. WELP, guess I'll run off into time for no particular reason and never, ever come back!"

And then Wally beats up Savitar, or something totally awesome like that.

Yeah... That's what it was... Totally not because Barry's the one not effected by the time****.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Who is that member of the Flash family

 

[TheCorpulent1]

X-S. She's Barry's granddaughter and a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes from their second continuity.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Oh...okay. I think I know who that is now.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

She's also Bart's cousin.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Is that the one that ran him back to life in Legion of the Three Worlds?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Um... maybe? I don't actually remember Legion of 3 Worlds with that much specificity.

I HATE her speed costume. She is a grown woman and she just looks stupid in it. Dont know why they cant come up with a new one that incorprates both her parents legacies into it.

hahaha awesome.

Hasn't Barry always favored a brighter shade of red in his uniform though? Giving Wally a darker shade of red just seemed a way to help differentiate him when he took over.

I admit I think the DC guys missed something when Barry returned - what if Barry didn't want to go back to being a superhero? What if, GASP, he actually wanted to retire and live quietly with his wife after being stuck in limbo for 20 some odd years (or at least consider moving to another city that didn't have a super-speedster)? At the very least you'd think he'd want to go on vacation.

 

[Mystirious]

Yep if I got myself killed being a superhero and then got brought back to life I wouldn't go back to being a superhero

I would go find a real job where there was less risk of being killed by space monsters

 

[Mystirious]

Yeah, but I think one of the problems is that this invokes Amazons Attack, and since this will be the third time we've had to go through this bit it's pretty gut wrenching for any fan, Elseworlds or otherwise.

Agreed I dont like the Amazons being portrayed as villains yet again even if it is an elseworlds

And then Wally beats up Savitar, or something totally awesome like that.

They killed off Savitar in a really dumb way in Flash Rebirth

Poor Savitar

He is a cop after all, and his family (Including Wally! Ohmagawd guys, Wally!) sat down with him in the most recent issue of Flash to talk to him about his not slowing down. They didn't miss it, they just decided not to do it to add to the drama. Which I think will be a major point of Flashpoint, he thinks that since he's back he has all the time in the world to be a hero and spend time with Iris and Wally and get to know Bart. But then time goes wonky and he can't even do that. He even got the chance to finally meet/hang out with his Grandson and didn't spend any time with him. I think after Flashpoint is when he'll give the family a hug and catch up on The Simpsons or something.

Anyone else wonder why Bart's not in this picture?

 

[HighFivingMF]

Hot Pursuit zapped him away, leading into "Kid Flash Lost".

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Isn't Hot Pursuit Barry?

 

[HighFivingMF]

Isn't Hot Pursuit Barry?

A different Barry, yes. He zapped Bart because he was from the future, which is supposed to be contributing to the time****.

 

[Mystirious]

But that doesn't make any sense

 

[HighFivingMF]

But that doesn't make any sense

How? The Barry from the alternate reality ended up in the main DC Universe while all of the realities and time****s are meshing together and making things nonsensical. Hot Pursuit is trying to stop it from happening because he obviously knows some things the real Barry doesn't. Bart's a kid from the future living in the past, a time**** himself.

 

[Mystirious]

But Bart's been living in the past for ages and it has never caused any problems
