admonition : contains spoilers forThe Flash # 781 !
Many DC fans were demoralise when the publisher ostensibly attempt to replaceThe Flash’sWally West with a unseasoned fibre of the same name , only to reveal they were unlike people who would now co - exist as speedster superheroes . However , as Wally and Wallace really spend some metre together , The Flashis proving that they ’re actually an amazing squad with fun chemistry worth search further .
Originally Kid Flash , Wally West inherited the rubric ofFlash when Barry Allen diedas a part of the massive crossoverCrisis on Infinite Earths . Wally had always been a fan favourite , but when DC decided to reboot its entire existence withThe New 52 , Wally was written out of reality as if he never existed in the first piazza . Instead , a unexampled , younger Wallace West was introduce in his stead . Fans were vital of the decision , and when DC infix itsRebirthphase , Barry Allen grapple to pull the sometime version ofWally back into macrocosm . thing were throw at first as there were two unlike Wally Wests exist with similar powers , but the 2d iteration finally found his own space alongside the Teen Titans .

However , with Barry Allen ’s adventure out into the multiverse , Wally West is DC ’s main Flash once again , andFlash # 781- from Jeremy Adams and Fernando Pasarin - sees him bond with Wallace West ’s Kid Flash on a high - pep pill day of risky venture . At first , Wallace is standoffish with his older counterpart , but the two part a unequalled shackle as they both hadBarry Allen as a mentor . Rather than have to team up up to look off against a villain , Wally and Wallace pass their metre merely ruminate upon what it means to be a hero next to the original Flash ’s good example , and how best to acquire up and become heroes of their own .
This lesson from Wally actually lift the spirits of Wallace , who is in a bad mood from the commencement of the story . It also has the ironic upshot of explaining the position to fans , put out a clear human relationship between two versions of what was once a single someone . While Wallace is coming to an understanding of his spot in the universe , so is the reader , andFlashsuccessfully defines his place among DC ’s speedsters in a way some once thought would in the end test impossible .
Flash # 781shows that was once a tangle of continuity is now far cleared , and that Wally and Wallace can not just co - be , but get the best out of each other in shared tale . The original dynamic between the two was a mess , particularly asWally was dealing with traumasuch as the kind he faced inHeroes in Crisis . But since Wally ’s accept up the mantlepiece of theFlash , he and Wallace have forged a much more gratifying bond , which has allowed them to step into their own identities and out of the shadow of the other .
