That’s right. After Flashpoint, Wally disappeared. Wally remained out of the comics until Rebirth when he reappeared in DC Rebirth 1. He was lauded as the picture of hope, but everything pre Flashpoint was erased: Jai and Iris were erased, and his marriage to Linda Park was no longer recognized.Hey @Babillygunn. Could you please clear something up for me? In Heroes in Crisis it seemed that both Barry and Wally were operating under the name the Flash. Is that right? Were there two Flashes 'running around' (so to speak)? (I don't generally read Flash solo stuff)
Barry was Flash in the solo book and in Justice League. Wally was Flash in Titans.
Heroes in Crisis and Flash Forward were a bit meta inasmuch as it was pretty clear that DC brought Wally back as a big deal but then didn’t know what to do with him. The character Wally even remarks In Heroes in Crisis that he came back but lacked purpose. (Titans even has some strange stories where Wally has a heart attack. And then eventually the Justice League inexplicably shut the Titans down in what appeared to be one of the most hypocritical moves possible.)
so yes, both Barry and Wally were Flashes, but Barry was the main Flash and recognized as Flash even though Wally was technically Flash as well.
