Thanks to a LOT of support from ardent Flash fans, Barry Allen is the Champion of DC Marvel Superhero March Madness at TMStash.com!  The competition started with 64 characters, divided equally between DC and Marvel favorites, and just ended earlier tonight (April 6th).  Barry received almost 2/3 of over 15,000 votes cast in the final round!  Yes, there were multi-voters on both sides of the aisle on this one, but Flash fans were certainly the most enthusiastic in pushing the Scarlet Speedster over the top!  Here’s the link to the official announcement at TMStash:
