Comics Should Be Good is down to #12 in their Top 50 DC Characters Countdown, and there’s no sign yet of Barry Allen or Wally West. I can definitely see Barry climbing the charts in the last few years (he was still dead during the last poll, after all), and while I can see Wally falling a bit, I can’t imagine him falling so far that he’d miss the top 50 entirely — especially with Jay Garrick and Bart Allen in the running at #45 and #36.

So, what do you think? Is there room for two Flashes in the Top 11 most popular DC characters? Which Flash will come out ahead, and by how much?

Comics Should Be Good! has been reporting on the results of their new Top 100 DC and Marvel Characters survey, and has released #50-#26 of the DC results. We’ve seen two Flashes so far, and it’s a safe bet that the others are on their way.

#45: Jay Garrick, down slightly from #41 last time.
#36: Bart Allen, up from #42 last time.

When the poll was first done in 2007, Barry Allen came in at #29 and Wally West at #3. It’ll be interesting to see how far Barry has climbed the ranks since his 2008 return, and where Wally is since being moved off-page post-Flash: Rebirth.

Comics Should Be Good is doing a new Top 100 Marvel/DC characters poll. List your favorite 10 from each company in order, and they’ll tally all the votes.

When they ran the same poll four years ago, Wally West, Barry Allen, Jay Garrick and Bart Allen all made it into the top 50 DC characters. It’s been a complicated few years for the Flash (to say the least), so it’ll be interesting to see how the audience’s reactions have changed over that time.
