For those that didn't click through to the Weekly Crisis review in the post, I considered this one of the biggest comic events for this year, right up there with Blackest Night in terms of anticipation. The 'large margin' quote in the post might come off as if I hated the issue or that it was a huge failure, but, when it wasn't praising Saint Barry, I actually thought the mystery villain, speedster murder plot and setup for future stories was quite good - just not good enough for the amount of hype I had going in. .-= Kirk Warren’s latest blog post: <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheWeeklyCrisis/~3/x27nTmSRk14/cover-of-week-authority-dark-reign.html" rel="nofollow">Cover of the Week - Authority, Dark Reign: Fantastic Four & Astonishing Tales</a> =-.

That makes sense, even if it's a bit out of the blue and kind of unnecessary. @Kelson , ah gotcha. That makes sense, even if it’s a bit out of the blue and kind of unnecessary.

And crazy sci-fi adventures like the Morrison/Millar run on Wally's series would fit Barry even better. @cm22: Someone brought it up on one of the boards EVS posts to, and he said it was just easier to distinguish Iris West I and Iris West II in dialog by giving the younger one a nickname. I'm guessing "EYE-ree" for the pronunciation. @Jason West: The Barry Allen who appeared in Final Crisis, racing death with a smile and visiting Iris before saving the world — that’s the Barry Allen I want to see.

Because that REALLY bothered me (in a nit picking way obviously) as it was unprecedented as far as I recall, and I have no idea how it's pronounced, why the change/nickname was made.
