The Flash has, in more recent years become one of my favorite characters. Unlike many of the other heroes in comics, he really seems to be an everyman, one of us. What does Wally do when confronted with the decisions of his mentor Barry? Can he outrun Barry’s past or will it catch up and take him down? We talk about these questions and more in this episode of The Comics Archive.

The resurrection of Barry Allen was one of the three big reasons I got out of comics a few years back. I'm curious how his character and Wally are fitting into the DC Universe these days. The Flash (Wally) has always been my favorite comic book character and I have been feeling the itch again, lately, so if they're doing interesting things with him it would make getting back into comics easier.

This book actually takes place before Barry's return.

Oh and special thanks to Wackman3000 for some special voice over work.

I thought you guys were gonna do 100 Bullets next. Or is that the one after this one?

Of course, I'll download and listen as soon as I get the chance to.

[Ghostbear]

100 Bullets is next.

Cool! If you don't mind me asking, how far into the series do you plan on covering? I think the last issue I read was 25. It's kind of emotionally draining so after getting that far in a small amount of time, I just haven't been able to get back to it.

Edit: Sorry about the off-topic questions, I'll save anything else for the official thread or that episode's thread.

We read the first trade paperback.

Oh, I didn't notice the name of the trade in the title, yeah, I have that on my shelf...my mistake.
