It's been years since I cried at a comic book.
You won this round Cereal Knight
>>83147073
Same here. I had seen the preview pages, but reading it in context was completely different. Absolutely beautiful. Planning on buying it later today because of it.
>>83147073
IT got me too, it was a super cheap emotional heartstrings pull if not a sucker punch but
GG cereal lord.
GG

>>83147073
I still felt like I was punched in the stomach when Linda didn't remember him though.
>>83147289
well gotta give him a purpose in this new world
>>83147073
I've had a weird few days, and really the most exposure to the Flash I've had is the TV show, but I definitely got misty-eyed when I read this part.
>>83147073
Yeah, that was well done. I'm not even an uber Wally or Flash fan, but some moments in this were honestly gut-wrenching.
>>83147073
I just cried in rage the Barry and wally stuff was really good but I was still seething from the shit with his wife
Yeah, I got teary eyes too. I'm not even a big fan of Wally.
Man, I don't car what eveyrone else is saying
I'm hyped as fuck after I read that Rebirth issue.
>>83147748
He and Linda will find their way back to each other. I just hope it's not too creepy, like maybe she gets the memories on her own.

>I've had a weird few days, and really the most exposure to the Flash I've had is the TV show, but I definitely got misty-eyed when I read this part.
I love how Wally is so stupid he never went to see Barry before that.
>>83147073
>crying to cheap pandering
Jesus. How to spot someone that never had to deal with anything serious in real life
>>83147845
Comics, gonna keep trying cause the next issue might be great
>>83147838
Except Wally didn't just lose Linda, he lost his kids as well. That must be devastating.
>>83147845
this desu
Today Rebirth was an okay to good issue whereas Darkseid War's final issue was fucking awful.
Pretty easy to tell where Johns' interest was.
>>83147845
3edgy5me
>>83147965
The issue almost ignored that aspect of it. We'll probably have him mourn a little but I don't want DC wants people thinking about the children anymore.
>>83147845
It's more like the belting was extra hard today so maybe tomorow dad will be to tired
The rebirth special was shit but the change in tone and editorial direction looks promising
>>83147845
You missed the Marvel threads, kiddo.
>WOAH THEY BROUGHT BACK A CHARACTER IN A SUPERHERO COMIC I HAVE TO CRY!! BAWWW SO EMOTIONAL
>>83148136
>average asspained Squirrelgirl faggot
>>83148136
Consider suicide
>>83147965
Geoff Johns didn't like Wally's kids.
>>83148136
Fuck off Marvel shill. Don't you have some Marvel to shill?
>>83147838
My problem with it was that this was meant to be about bringing optimism back to dc. They should have subverted our expectations nu52 would have said she dident know him her recognising him would have been the indication things have changed
They did that with the Barry stuff in the end but the Linda stuff was unnecessary.
>>83148214
He created them and had pre-Flashpoint storylines planned for them
>>83148257
Maybe they should have had a comprimise and had both Barry and Linda there
>>83148291
They were editorial mandate from Didio.
His pre-Flashpoint storylines planned for them involved them getting kidnapped and killed.
>>83148333
No it was probably just Jai going evil for a while. There was that pitch to put Irey on that kids' team too that didn't get to pan out.
>>83148438
Yeah, wasn't it heavily hinted that Jai was going to be the Turtle?
>>83147838
Don't really have time to read it right now but is this just a Nu52 version of Wally or is this pre-Nu52 Wally same way we have pre-Nu52 Supes?
>>83148997
It's a physically deaged pre-Flashpoint Wally with all his memories but he also has memories of the new 52 as well
>>83148997
Pre-Nu52 Wally. New Wally is apparently a cousin who's named after the same grandfather.
When Wally was fading into the Speedforce and saying his goodbye to Barry, I almost lost it
>>83148857
Yeah, there's a hilarious page in maybe a secret Files? of the West family and he's sitting on the floor looking mad wearing a shirt with a turtle on it.
also foreshadowing Irey taking over as Kid Flash and Flash goes back to Waid
>>83147845
Do you want to talk about something anon?
>>83147073
Perez was on point in this comic, I really loved his art
Wait so he isn't black anymore?
>>83150588
Actually he was never black at all
>>83150588
Black Wally was apparently never the nu52 version of proper Wally, but actually a cousin we've never heard of before.
shit nigga dat moment when Wally is about to perish and Barry remembers and grabs him by the hand and calls him 'Wally', GOD tier moment right there, fucking loved that shit, has to be one of my favorite moments in comics in the last years or so
fucking amazing shit, also dat blue box in the end in epilogue, loved every second of this issue
>>83147073
>Been a fucking hard week, dealing with a lot of shit and my father's illness
>Wally's speech was already too much
>Barry remembers him and saves him
I cried like a little bitch for hours, i fucking needed that
>>83147244
Wally in all case since he's the one who comes so steal the spotlight of a POC.
>>83147073
>Cereal King
???
>>83147845
This isn't the belt. This is the trip to the ice cream parlor, after, because, even though you did wrong, your parents still love you.
>His wife didn't remember him
>But his uncle Barry did
Speedforce, stronger than any relationship.

Read bottom to top.
>>83152796
Barry is basically his dad in every meaningful way. Don't downplay his role as just an uncle.
>>83150801
This is one of those situations where fans screamed it loud and long enough and it came true.
Not Muh Wally given form.
>>83152796
It's more memories. Linda's love is obviously more important to Wally. It's why he went to her first. Barry just has the capability to remember because he's a time traveler as well.
It's why Bart remembered Linda when she got erased from history that one time.
It's incredible how long Flash has been shit for
Given it's supporting cast and world it should be much better than it is
Literally the current arc is the only Decent Flash story in over a decade
>>83147073
Same.
>>83147073
I wish their crotches were slightly touching.
>>83153252
Dastardly death was good. So was Rogues' Rebellion, though I guess there wasn't a Flash appearance in it.
>>83153252
Nah the Wednesday comics story is still within that range. but this is 2nd
>>83153361
Rogues had decent stories, I meant staring Flash
>>83153362
Should have specified Final Crisis onwards
which issue is this?
>>83153463
Rebirth one-shot >>83143680
>>83147073
will Wallyfags shut up now?
they were almost as bad as HEAT was
Yeah it was really powerful, and i only read Wally in JLA as well.
Well i read Return of Barry Allen as well which is probably which i got so emotional.
Meh.
>>83153252
Excuse me? Rogues revolution and gorilla warfare is pretty good and the art is great.
