The Official Flash thread

[Ion Kenshin]

I think he had a daughter too. I recall an episode with a dance she was going to or something.

Yes he did ...her name was Ally. The three kids are actually related in real life

 

[Anubis]

Ah, I see. Learn something new everyday. Is she legal yet? And if so, is she hot?

 

[Ion Kenshin]

No and Hell NO. And im not just sayin that cuase I am gay. SHe just isnt a pretty girl. She may pull an Alyssa Milano and get smoking hot but I dunno

 

[Anubis]

This is where some creepy dude pops in and says "but she was always hot!" Everybody laughs. Snare on Drum. Curtains close.

 

[MadVillainy]

Maaaaaannnnn f*** Barry Allen

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Why do you hate him so?

 

[MadVillainy]

Lol I actually dont hate him but I far prefer Wally. And I hate that their beasically making a very good comic book death a joke

 

[Anubis]

Plus, that needs to be said on every page.

If they turn Wally into the ***** *****, I will be furious enough to boycott DC as long as Dan Didio is in charge.

This silver age love must stop.

If you're gonna curse, its always helpful to put the first letter and last letter of each word so people get the gist of what you're talking about. F**k Nuggets. See?


Also, boycott? It's always the baby with the bath water with some people.

I never had a problem with Wally's kids. The problem was that people wrote pretty crappy stories around them. Waid's focus on the kids was too much, too fast. Peyer got rid of the super-fast aging threat, so they're fine now and they could've been the basis for better stories, only Wally's comic was canceled shortly after. It always amuses me how comic fans claim to love progress and character arcs but then point at marriages and kids as detriments to a character.

Well speaking from personal experience. I happen to know that having just 1 kid... just about interferes with everything I used to and currently do on a day to day basis. Even if Wally is the fastest man alive I would like to think his kids would affect him more than just being connected to him by a speed force leash. If they are going to use kids maybe they should ground it in reality a little bit. They throw all these scenarios at him in the span of 1 year then get rid of him for somebody else. I mean why did he even have kids? So I guess i have to agree that it is the writers fault.

Anyway I am still under the impression that they had something good with Bart being the flash. He had something he could aspire to be. That is the backbone of every legacy character.

I wish more would make it though. They can only pine after the mantle for so long before that gets tiresome. Wally graduating was sweet, Bart graduating could have been sweet. Frankly, I just want to see Tempest graduate. Sword of Atlantis would have been way better with that than alternative reality AC.

 

[Seibrix]

yeah seeing tempest graduate would have been something nice actually. But, who wants to do that?

 

[yenaled]

I hope no-one is buying this **** still.

 

[BrianWilly]

I'm gonna glance through issue three to see if something exciting actually happens. If not, it's drozapped.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I hope no-one is buying this **** still.

You know everyone still is. I dropped it after #1 and I suspect you probably did too, but most comic readers b**** about comics incessantly while still dropping cash for them.

 

[Tron Bonne]

I never even bought it from the start. I win?

 

[Darthphere]

I never started buying it. I mean, Johns plus the word Rebirth is not something I want. Fool me once and all that.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I liked GL: Rebirth, actually. Until the Parallax retcon, it was a decent story.

 

[Darthphere]

No, the last 2 issues are almost unreadable due to ridiculousness. Batman getting sucker punched, Parallax retcon, then you have the whole explanation about Kyle being seemingly immune to Parallax, then Johns decides to **** over his own continuity. No thanks.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, the part with Kyle was cool until the Sinestro Corps War f***ed it up.

 

[Darthphere]

Well, the part with Kyle was cool until the Sinestro Corps War f***ed it up.

You read Rebirth now and you're like ok, what the ****? For someone who loves continuity and old ****, he can't even follow his own continuity.

 

[yenaled]

I would just love for this Rebirth to fall on it's face and DC admit maybe the reading public didn't want a character that, for a majority of them, has been dead their whole life.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

A lovely pipe dream, but a pipe dream nonetheless. However many of us have ditched Flash: Rebirth, you know it's still selling somewhere in the top ten, probably near the top. Like it or not, the big 2 publishers know what they're talking about: events do sell.
