As seen inThe Flash # 780from Jeremy Adams and Will Conrad , Waller sendsEarth-3 ’s evil Flash known as Johnny Quickback to Earth-0 to slip the Cosmic Treadmill . While it ’s unclear exactly why she needs the potent equipment build by Barry Allen ( which allows speedsters to trip through clip and distance ) , it ’s obvious she should be one of the last people in the DC Universe to have her hands on it . However , it ’s not as though Wally West and the Flash Family made it hard to get ahold of . Although a fake written matter is on display in the Flash Museum for public viewing , the real one is plainly a trading floor below and primed for the taking . While Rick Flag send the Mirror Master to stop Quick , both Wally and the classic Rogue failed in their efforts . To make matter worse , Wally reveals that the Flash Family oncereceived an offer from Nightwingto hide out the treadmill in the Batcave , one of the most protected places in the entire DC Universe . As such , it seems jolly dumb to leave such a hefty point neglected and largely unprotected .
Seeing as how the Cosmic Treadmill is only really utile for speedsters , it makes common sense that a rogue speedster would one day try out and steal it to use its power for their own ends . As such , why were n’t safeguards put in place to prevent the Cosmic Treadmill from being used or take up byanyone but Wally West ( or Barry Allen ) ? Furthermore , putting the powerful gadget somewhere far secure and less public than the Flash Museum ( like the Batcave ) seems like common sense , especially if there ’s already a fake salt mine for patron to search at . There ’s just no logical justification for why The Flash grow down Nightwing ’s offer .
While the Flash agrees with Dick Grayson now , it ’s only because the Cosmic Treadmill was being threatened ( the definition of hindsight being 20/20 ) . Now , Johnny Quick has Barry Allen ’s most herculean invention and has likely brought it back to Waller for the two of them to use as she sees primed . While Wally West may be the Fastest piece Alive as theFlash , leave the Cosmic Treadmill unprotected and not in the Batcave was a pretty dumb move all things considered .
