Comments on: RUSSELL ALERT! Barry Allen Returns! http://www.majorspoilers.com/archives/3875.htm/ We know you love comics. We do, too. Sun, 22 Nov 2009 01:55:11 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Scott http://www.majorspoilers.com/archives/3875.htm/#comment-57575 Scott Thu, 01 May 2008 14:59:42 +0000 http://www.majorspoilers.com/?p=3875#comment-57575 The problem with all of this is that Barry Allen doesn't really appear in DCU #0. There is much to imply his presence but also enough ambiguity to put off the full reveal until presumably some time later in the pages of Final Crisis or mayber Rogues Revenge. But then the news media comes in and pretty much blows all of this build up out of the water. It would have been nice if you would have revealed this after the jump.

We can bring back whoever we want whenever we want, boldly invalidating their sacrifices and making the current holders of their mantle that much less relevant. That's the great thing about comic books, eventually it just turns into an awful mess and you, our loving fans, will put up with it no matter what. that’s the point of comics, they don’t have to die!

Maybe the Rouges become true Rogues - to everyone, hero and villain. Can you imagine a revised Flash Rouge's Gallery of Speedsters? Zoom, Inertia, Black Flash Bart, Barry, Savitar-restored?

I'll hate it when they re-kill him but this is the New DC with 87% more death and gore after all.

Cant DC just leave someone dead.I am sure it has something to do with Legion of Three Worlds. The preview pic has Brainiac holding the lightning rod. Memories are good, but having Wally as the Flash is fine. Besides come one having three flashes in three different books it gets a bit much unless you gonna have Barry stay in one book. Right now we have Wally in Titans, JLA, and the Flash. When is enough enough. It is mess like this that made me stop collecting comics a while back. This is the same thing that is going to make me stop for another 20 years. Barry is better off dead. Cant DC just leave someone dead.I am sure it has something to do with Legion of Three Worlds.

I'm hoping that I can "jump on" with this DC Universe #0 that's hitting ... we'll see how that goes.

That story was left wide open, and many have speculated BA is in those rods... I'm still hoping Barry Allen turns into the Black Flash in Darkest Night.

Barry's just a cooler character dead. Like Stephen said, Barry wasn't as popular until after his death. Kind of like Cypher from the New Mutants. People begged for him to get killed off, and then when he did, he was everyone's favorite character. Hopefully this is just Barry’s third visit on Wally’s worst day and not a permanent return.

Hopefully I didn't piss you off too much Jon.
