I think people were expecting a swerve or an excuse of some kind. There wasn't. More like a doubling down.
The only reason it isn't worse than Identity Crisis is because nobody got raped. At least not yet, since Wally blames his not-wife for his mental breakdown because she doesn't know him.

I dug Harley being all murdery for Booster the most in this event. Everything else was splaying intestines on the wall and watching it fall. In. Slow. Motion. I think people were expecting a swerve or an excuse of some kind. There wasn't. More like a doubling down. The only reason it isn't worse than Identity Crisis is because nobody got raped. At least not yet, since Wally blames his not-wife for his mental breakdown because she doesn't know him. Wally blames Geoff Johns (Flashpoint) for this. Metaphysically. All in all the message is: all the soaked in ptsd makes you nucleary unstable. |

I saw a picture of Harley Quinn actually wearing her harlequin costume again instead of the Joker knockoff clown thing that doesn't fit her theme at all, so for a brief moment I almost read this. Then I saw she actually wears the clown getup in much of this thing, and another guy I talk to on Twitter said to stay away.

All in all the message is: all the soaked in ptsd makes you nucleary unstable. Johns is a a Wally fan and never intended Flashpoint to be a reboot. That was a Didio thing who hates all the Titans. Johns also brought back Wally in Rebirth as the symbol of hope and the universe before Dr. Manhattan corrupted it with edgelord bullshit. Ironically, it was edgelord bullshit that did Wally in again because Johns got fired from his president position, Wally lost his protected status again as quickly as he received it and the loser CIA agent who dumps all his anxiety and trauma into comic book characters got to write him instead for some Harley wankfest. |

Color me surprised for seeing you care for this on a big scale. You're Wally fan?
So you're trying to say Johns brought up Wally back as hope only to corrupt him years later with Watchmen circle jerk? Because Johns writes Watchmen circle jerk? Or Johns corrupted him to show how corporate comic writing is soulless and hopeless? I'm delving too deep in this, and I'm not even invested.

One of the few (perhaps only) characters who developed from being a generic sidekick to main hero to husband and father - Johns brought Wally back (he wrote a 50 issue Wally run in the early '00s) as an apology to all those who felt slighted by the New 52 - The Watchmen circlejerk felt like it was supposed to include Wally in a vital role (since Dr. Manhattan specifically excluded Wally from his depressing universe) - Instead of being on Johns' Doomsday Clock, Wally ended up in King's Heroes in Crisis - Johns never corrupted Wally. In fact, Wally overcame his depression in Johns' Flash run and got two children in return - Somewhere inbetween Rebirth and Doomsday Clock, Johns got blamed for all DC's woes and got demoted (Didio and Lee, of course, got off free and continue to ruin DC) - King got to do YET ANOTHER PTSD story because that's what most of his stories are about, this time using Wally as his main victim despite it all going against Wally's history as basically being DC's Peter Parker who values responsibility

I massively appreciate your input and the fervor that you speak with. Hugs and kisses, Kai. And please accept my condolences for Wally.
