Time for the new and blacker Wally West. The Venditti/Jensen run begins here. I'm so sorry.
Continuing the storytime of all major Reverse Flash appearances.

Time to shit
Well now, thanks to Rebirth, we know this Wally is actually Daniel's kid.
Let's see. Daniel was arrested when he was 18. Then 5 years later, he became the Reverse-Flash. So he would be 23 now. Wally is like 12, so Daniel knocked up some chick when he was 11 then.

Making him his "uncle" made no sense from the start; you could just tell somebody first came up with "kid of reverse flash" as the main character point, which makes an interesting dynamic. Then I'd assume somebody above him went "guys, we wanna make Wally different, but not TOO different. Making him black got people up in arms enough already." So that essentially means that there was no way to make Wally a distinct person, Wally getting mad about his Dad getting sent to prison is a way more clear-cut and understandable motivation for Wally to be bitchy at the start than his uncle.
I don't even hate nuWally alot, I just wish that they actually went whole hog and made him a totally different guy, now Rebirth means that he is, I'm interested in how they fix him.

I hate Vendetti's run and Booth's art, but I dig this costume design.
Worst Flash run ever.
Even worse than Bart's.

After the Blue Flash stuff ends

How does this N52 Wally idolizing Daniel make sense now that Daniel is his dad and abandoned him?
>>83253753
nuWally doesn't know Daniel is his real dad, I guess
>>83252137
>so Daniel knocked up some chick when he was 11 then
Is that even actually possible?

And OG Wally knows?
Well, I'm really thinking too much about something that clearly wasn't given too much thought by DC. I guess they'll just retcon shit.
>>83254155
OG Wally has got that speedforce omniscience. I dunno. Whatever
It's time.
>Waid's sacs of meat
What an odd thing to reference Mark Waid with. At least I'm assuming that's what's happening here
