Barry >Fucked up the timeline to save his mom >Even Barry's nemesis calls him out on it >Ended with the world exploding and ultimately Barry destroying that universe "fixing" it >Barry gets off scot free and with no remorse at the carnage because Bruce got a piece of paper from his dad
Wally >Lost his wife and two kids (ultimately because off Barry's timeline faggotry) >Goes on the fritz, kills a friend and a slew of literally whos >Frames two chucklefucks >Comes to his senses and kills himself
Can we just say now that Barry is the ultimate villain of the DC universe now and Wally did nothing wrong and is the victim? BASED KING IS KING!
But seriously, HiC is utter shit and I hope between this trash and other duds like the Batman "wedding", turning Mister Miracle into a suicidal clusterfuck, and his Superman/Lois torture porn people will wise up to how much of a fraud King is. If that faggot ever gets canned I hope he takes Didio with him.
Didio survived having a somewhat beloved female character raped on screen.
HiC isn’t going to do shit to the guy’s status. Plus, current DC seems to fully be in the Marvel “pissing off readers is good for business” camp, so they’re probably loving HiC.
Jason Fisher
The decade-long Barry push has been annoying as shit. He was legitimately better off dead after CoIE and fondly remembered by other DC characters.
Gavin Collins
I don't get how you can say Wally did nothing wrong when he literally framed two innocent people for mass murder after fradulently creating a crime scene that involved him doing shit like impaling Lagoon Boy, shoving toy teeth in commander steel's throat, etc etc.
Dude's either just evil now or insane. Either way he's the bad guy here.
Andrew Evans
Agreed. When I started reading the Flash I'd never read any silver age stuff. The way Barry was talked about as the standard of what it meant to be a hero was really cool, & seeing him come back & do what he's done has been severely underwhelming.
Xavier Rogers
Because, and bear with me now, a perfect saintly hero is boring and the goal with bringing Barry back was not to recreate the exact boring character that was so bad that they killed him off to get replaced by his (at the time) highly unlikable kid sidekick.
I don't get people complaining that they changed Barry. Of course they did. Guess the fuck what? Wally didn't have a terrible, sad, neglectful childhood before Waid modernized him and retconned his origin. You faggots complaining that Barry's not a perfect silver age pastiche are hypocritical as fuck.
Adrian Powell
Barry hasn't had a solid comic since... ever, really. Silver age stuff was crazy because it's the Silver age. Then from his return it's been lukewarm at best.
His sacrifice in CoIE was Barry at his highest.
Adam Moore
HiC would've been better if it never was written at all but it should've had no real deaths but instead Wally beating the everliving fuck out of a simulated Barry. Then somebody walks in and sees like eighty splattered Barry corpses in the corner.
Jason Green
Hey we all have hopes and dreams now.
Easton Ramirez
What if they just forever stuck him in the Justice League and had Wally operating as solo Flash?
I feel like that's better for him. He can be the moral compass for the Justice League, always reminding the team that they can rise up to be better.
