Wally West

Character » Wally West appears in 1896 issues.

Taking on the name Kid Flash in honor of his hero, The Flash Barry Allen his Uncle, Wally West would eventually become The Flash after the death of his mentor. Wally was an original member of the Teen Titans, a member of the JLA and the fastest man alive. He has yet to appear in the new 52.

We NEED a new Wally West ongoing. Am I right or Am I right?

I miss Wally written by Geoff and drawn by Scott. I want that back, their run (if you haven't read it yet) is FANTASTIC. I think Barry is cool and all, the new run is pretty great so far BUT we need some more Wally on our lives, I suggest a SECOND series, staring Wally, drawn by Scott Kollins and written by Geoff Johns. That's right we should get a regular Flash with Manapaul and Johns alongside another Flash series (maybe The Fastest Man Alive?) with Johns writing and Scott on art. What do you think, Johns could bring back Zoom and maybe throw in some inertia, maybe a couple of new villains, let's do this DC.

@rufug:  A second Flash ongoing series (titled: "The Flash: Speed Force" and starring Wally West, Jay Garrick, and the rest of the Flash Family) is due to come out by late 2011.

Yes Wally is so much better than Barry for me...

I got into DC a lot later than I got into Marvel.. Wally will always be Flash for me. Sort of like when you're growing up, the Bond you saw is always your Bond.  Wally is and was my Flash.  (Obsidian Age anyone!?)

Wally is the best speedster in either company, him not having an ongoing is cruel. Can't wait for Flash: SF.
