I think it’s safe to say that for our comic book geek generation, Wally West is The Flash. But for all the old timers out there, I bet it’s Barry Allen all the way. I can’t really blame them because the deceased Flash was totally awesome. Observe:

Legend has it that fans had a hard time relating to The Flash and his amazing quickness, so the Flash creative team made an issue featuring a fat Flash. Fans related to the Scarlet Speedster in no time.

Whoever that #7 guy is, he’s awesome. Also, I think he’s Satan! Flip the number of laps, which is 999, and you get 666! iGenius!

Barry’s right, Kid Flash! Beware his lightning insignia! It’s so evil, it’s changing your uniform! DIABOLICAL!

If you think about it, that’s… that’s kinda gross.

Nothing says “desperate” than begging readers to buy your comic while shoving guilt down their throats. You’ve reached a new low, Barry. Tsk tsk tsk.

The Flash: What a pussy. Superman: What a dick.

Barry Allen’s time has already passed, but his awesome legacy lives on. Barry’s dead. LONG LIVE BARRY!
