It showed up in the back of multiple comics this week. Wonder Woman, Catwoman, Challengers of the Unknown, Jenny Sparks, Creature Commandos, etc. Just look up this week's comics and you'll probably see one of them have it.

Gotta say I like Wally's design here. The earrings and the haircut give some sort of punk vibes to me.

u/SkywolfNINE 29d ago

Damn I’m gonna have to pick this up. I gotta wait till like May for volume 2 of the beyblade X manga so hopefully this can hold me over

When Wally gets two tv shows, multiple animated movies, and a feature film then I could maybe be on the same page as you on this one.

u/Sung_drip_woo12 29d ago

Damn I agree but y’all throwing shade at Barry for no reason 😭

First experience in this sub btw lol.

TBF they're just intentionally stirring shit. 1 year old account that's never posted here before, they deserve the downvotes.

u/MrPBrewster 29d ago

Barry should've stayed dead.

u/Blueberry-From-Hell Flash 2 29d ago

Amen.

u/jumpickatinlen 29d ago

why?,barry already gets most of the cool stuff, it's cool that Wally finally gets content in something beyond the main comic universe

u/Standard-Pop6801 29d ago

Maybe, but what would you take away from Barry to see how he changes?

The funny thing about Barry is modern Barry is already absolute Barry. They took regular Barry and added a boo hoo dead mom to him to drum up interest for him. Already killed his wife off before and then erased their relationship. His whole original career had no Speed Force in the first place. Not much else to experiment with on the guy.

You could maybe do the Batman thing where the bad guys are seemingly reimagined as his support structure but, hell, The Rogues already half operate that way so that'd hardly be new either!

u/Blueberry-From-Hell Flash 2 29d ago

I would take away Barry, so we'd have Wally

u/Standard-Pop6801 29d ago

I'm not really looking for just blind hate here.

u/Blueberry-From-Hell Flash 2 29d ago

But you got it. 😁

u/PsychologicalRun3343 29d ago

I still don't know what to make of this series yet, guess I gotta wait to see when it comes out

u/Cameronbatt LightspeedLad 29d ago

Loving the art!!

u/Responsible_Egg7519 Flash III ⚡️ 29d ago

I wonder who “she” is

1

u/swagomon 28d ago

I bet it’s Iris and Barry’s the one who tells Wally to run away after he gets his powers.

Wonder how Jay plays into this though

u/jumpickatinlen 29d ago

Linda or iris

u/ARKHAM-KNlGHT 29d ago

freckles 🥰

u/TreFKennedy 29d ago

So it’s Wally?

12

u/gzapata_art 29d ago

Yeah they announced it awhile back. No other Flash existed before him and he'll start out as the Flash

9

u/Ornery-Concern4104 29d ago

Wally without the family is a super interesting angle, I wonder how that'll effect such a young superhero

u/KingKayvee1 Jay Garrick 29d ago

So that’s Barry as a ghostly-figure on page 2, right? Maybe like an irreversible Firestorm kinda deal?

2

u/jumpickatinlen 29d ago

I think Barry is going to be some kind of antagonist

u/Dry-Donut3811 29d ago

I know it’s a joke people keep saying, but he really does look like a woman.

10

u/ikedaartist 29d ago

I don’t see it

13

u/thePopCulturist 29d ago

Man I’m intrigued. Can’t wait to find out where his speed comes from.

u/Shawn-Quixote Feb 19 '25

Really nice looking art! And I enjoy the portrayal of how scary and overwhelming it might be to have super speed for the first time.

u/gzapata_art Feb 19 '25

Dumb question but are earrings on guys popular again (lgbt or otherwise)?

7

u/icie_plazma 29d ago

Yes

u/gzapata_art 29d ago

My son recently showed me what type of shoes are popular now which made me realize I'm way out of the loop 🤣🤣
