*They posted it two days ago, and somehow I missed it. Busy week!
Wally is my flash.
Well there it is folks. What does every think DC will do with all these pre flash point DCU characters? Fold in the one people like? Two Wally Wests…Black/white Flash cookie…WHY NOT.
I’m just hoping they don’t go the usual DC route and treat the alternate versions of the characters as cannon fodder.
I’d love to see them try to fit both in. (No, seriously. One could be Wally and the other could be Wallace. Like when you have close family and one marries someone with the same name. Wally, Wallace, Jay, Jai, Jason, Irey, Iris, Linda; eh, Linda lucked out, didn’t she?) More likely this will end with the old DCU characters as cannon fodder.
(Unless their sales surpass the new and Warner Bros puts their foot down on the matter of nostalgia versus nostalgia versus profits.)
Tom Grummett? Awesome. Love his run on Titans and Superman.
