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

If you see one ant on the counter from time to time you don't think much of it, but when they're all over the place you spray the **** out of 'em.

 

[Anubis]

Nah that sounds like a plot hole to me.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, in fairness, it actually has caused problems before. His super-speed aging was the first problem, which Wally had to step in and fix so Bart didn't age to death in like ten minutes. Bart was also the only one who noticed Linda was missing after the timeline got rewritten. That was good, obviously, but also a "problem" in the sense that he only noticed because he was himself sort of unstuck in time, to steal from Vonnegut. I'm sure there's other stuff, but I don't remember anymore right now.

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.

Oh, so Hot Pursuit is actually the Flashpoint timeline's Barry?

That's what I assumed, it hasn't been confirmed that he is I don't think. But he's an alternate reality's Barry, so probably.

 

[Panthro]

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.

I see. My bad.

 

[HighFivingMF]

So Flashpoint Bruce isn't a dick!

Also, in Flash #12- Hot Pursuit said he made a mistake and Bart isn't an anomaly.

 

[Mystirious]

So Flashpoint Bruce isn't a dick!

It's a miracle

 

[Flash Facts]

Bart's aging wasn't caused by time travel it was the reason they time traveled.

Barry's alter on the other should be causing anomalies since thats what happened when Walter showed up.

 

[DaveMoral]

It's a miracle

Flashpoint Batman is

Spoiler

Thomas Wayne.

 

[Roose Bolton]

well colour me surprised i loved this issue, im definately getting the next issue, aswell as the knight of vengance mini

 

[Assassin]

This issue was sweeeeeeet. I want more. I'm getting all the #1's of the mini's and then go on from there.

Hot Pursuit is not the Flashpoint timeline's Flash. He's from a parallel earth.

Also, Batman looks like he's the main character

 

[Batman]

I have to say,

Spoiler

I actually didn't expect the last twist. Usually I can see that stuff coming from a million miles away, and even on the page before it, I thought that Batman meant Bruce was only dead metaphorically speaking. Barry's reaction then made me think it was Dick, only to realize that he's still apart The Flying Graysons in this universe. Then, I thought "Wait a minute, it's Damian isn't it? Oh, Jesus, it's Batman #666 all over agai-...", only to be dead wrong as I turned the page.

Well played, Johns. You slippery bastard.

 

[Assassin]

who are you and when did you become a mod?

 

[Frankenmation]

What, are you dense? Are you ******ed or something? Who the hell do you think he is?

 

[Roose Bolton]

So anyone wanna make any bets on who the flashpoint version of joker is? I'm thinking joe chill....

 

[Superman_]

who are you and when did you become a mod?

Do you remember a while back when we had the poster named Batman_ sort of like how my name is. Well that's him. When the poster who held the username Batman gave it up he asked the mods for the name although he was a newbie ( and yes I can call him that because I've been here since the Hype's start only under a different name) at the time and most of the posters felt The_Batman should have been given the name since he was here longer ( although I'm not sure if The Batman wanted the name or not). Anyways either way it was explained that he got the name because he asked first. When he became a mod I don't know or care.

ahh yes, i remember we used to call him Batman space

 

[HighFivingMF]

Also, Batman looks like he's the main character

They've already said it's a Flash and Batman event. I'm guessing Cyborg gets third billing, he's been on the main series' covers more than anyone but Barry and Batman. Then Wonder Woman and Aquaman.

Spoiler

I still think Wally is going to put on the Hot Pursuit costume. I'm probably wrong but it doesn't hurt to call it.

 

[Assassin]

I know it's a Brave and the Bold style book with Batman and Flash but I mean Batman's #1 in my eye if he's the narrator of the whole series

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Barry's alter on the other should be causing anomalies since thats what happened when Walter showed up.

That was explicitly stated as being because of Hypertime, wasn't it? Hypertime no longer exists.

 

[Mystirious]

I read the first issue of Flashpoint

It did not suck as much as I thought it would. Was really glad to see Pied Piper and Amethyst appear and Shade the Changing Man

I those characters

Citizen Cold is an unlikable dbag though hoping he gets killed off

And the plot didn't really hold my interest. Still it wasnt absolutely awful and i might read future issues

 

[The Batman]

Oh, I did want the name...even asked Dew for it. She gave me some type of reason for why I couldnt have it...next thing I know Batman_ got it.

Oh well. "The Batman" sounds cooler, lol.

That's what I thought. Oh well thats why I learned after a while never to ask Dew for anything always go to The Hitman (Malice) when you need something or Daisy .

 

[flash13]

Read the first issue and for the first time I was interested in Barry Allen. I still want Wally back though
