We don't talk about Heroes in Crisis. That was a character assassination on Wally.

Silver Age Barry had no personality. I mean, calling him “vanilla” would be giving him too much credit. When they brought him back, they wanted to give him more personality, so they basically gave him Wally’s personality. That right there is proof enough for me that Wally is better; they got rid of Wally and then turned Barry into Wally.

It was created when the multiverse was born. Also, for me, the best Flash is Wally West, and it's not even close. He has a great personality (Barry didn't even have one during the Silver Age), amazing character development, and great relationships (Barry Allen, Nightwing, JLA, Teen Titans. He is a friend to all of them). Many Flash abilities and feats come from Wally. Like, speed stealing, infinite mass punch, outran instant teleportation, outran Death. Even the Speed Force was introduced during Wally's run as The Flash. And if Barry is the best Flash, why, in most adaptations, he has Wally's personality and some of his powers and feats?

Wrong. The 2009 Issue of Flash that establishes that Barry created the speedforce came before the New 52 RETCON of the SpeedForce being a thing that always existed since the dawn of time. So, Arris is right. Why bother saying he's wrong if you know he's right? It's fine if you dislike that Barry was made into the reason for the Speedforce's existence. That's completely fine. We all have things we dislike about comics. Like how I have a distaste for what Bendis did to Jon Kent because he didn't want to write a superboy story. That doesn't mean that you should just ignore what happened during that comic even if it is decidedly stupid.

For me though, born in early 90's I didn't even know who Barry was. Wally has been the flash years before I was born, and when they revived Barry I was already in my late teen and already 'grew up' from american comic books in general. So even until now it's kinda weird to see Barry as the main flash. But I heard that Wally's got the position back since last year or so.

Wally. He’s the Flash I grew up with and really projects what I feel a hero should be. He’s compassionate, down to earth, and personable, but also willing to do what needs to be done. He doesn’t hesitate to put the needs of others above his own (and oh my new gods did I hate when DC did with him following flashpoint and rebirth). You know Wally West’s flash is the best when they’re taking his personality and feats and discoveries and giving them to Barry in adaptions (who was otherwise originally pretty boring). I also love Jay, but if we’re picking a Jay Garrick it has to be the new 52 Earth 2 version. The New 52 Earth 2 I thought was so well done and interesting. Its not really that I liked one Jay over the other but I do wish New 52 Earth 2 got some more acknowledgment. There’s also something so cool about his speed coming from merging with Mercury and not the speed force (so he’s essentially the god of speed and has the speed of mercury powers Shazam has).

Wally is the best Flash ever. He’s the best written Flash in the aggregate. That can’t be argued. Flash volume two in almost in it’s entirety is the best. That’s 247 issues plus annuals , specials , etc. he’s had the best writers. Waid, John’s, Messener Loeb, Morrison and Millar. (And now Adam’s) He’s also the most fleshed out Flash with an actual story arc. He’s grown and matured as a character. The opposite of what you said about Barry Allen. Since Barry’s been back he’s been mostly written terribly. He’s not the same hero he was before. They write him as an angsty kid. Wally was written poorly in Heroes in Crisis and Williamson’s run. That’s it. And that was allllll done because Barry was the lead Flash and Dan Didio hated Wally West. In fact if Dan wasn’t at DC Barry would have probably never come back and things would look very different now. Wally’s also just a more likable character. Through all of his changes. Young kid, young adult who’s a jerk and then husband and father. He’s funny. Self deprecating, goofy, noble and smart. Wally West is hands down the best Flash!

It's Barry Allen. Just kidding. It will always be the original Wally. Power or anything else.

I just love Jay Garrick. The OG, older and wiser Flash. And that helmet is just so cool, so iconic.

Wally has the most iconic stories and has had the most growth over the years. He’s had speed since he was a child and he’s gone through probably the most natural progression of any hero in comics. He’s gone from sidekick, to hero, to husband, and finally father and has been able to dig himself out of the deepest hole any character ever. I don’t think it’s fair to hold HiC against Wally because it was later revealed to be things truly out of his control, plus that story is so poorly written. Also, while I agree Barry is very important to the Flash mythos, it’s his legacy rather than he himself that means the most. His most impactful moments are when he shows up those few times during Wally’s run as The Flash to give him a pep talk or just be in Wally’s corner when he needs it most. Hot take, but Barry Allen was a more meaningful character when he was dead.

Maybe I'm playing devil's advocate, but with a character as pivotal and important as the Flash, I would make the argument that the point is moot: they're all just as important as the next. I couldn't imagine comics in general without any of these characters. I would say that they all deserve first place in the race to our hearts.

Wally West for me is The Best Flash. Hope they did him justice again cause they just recently retconned them again.

Wally West will always be the best Flash imho. Mark Waid and Geoff Johns run was the best.

The only reason at all the Barry had any resurgance is because he had parts of WALLY grafted on to him and the changes to his backstory-Wally and Jay never needed that.

Unfortunately Barry Allen’s tragic backstory is a retcon in and of itself and a completely stupid one. Go back to Barry Allen’s original story and you find that his parents were until a much later retcon to make Eobard Thawn something important, so they could justify constantly bringing him back, alive and well. Barry was a great Flash without that. Also the very common misconception of what happened to Barry after THE CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS : Barry became a part of the lightning bolt that made him the Flash, is a New 52 retcon because the publisher at the time hated legacy characters and tried to get rid of all of them save the Batfamily. What he actually did in 1985, was become a tachyon in the Lightning bolt that defied science and recreated his accident give Wally West his powers. Because the world needed the Flash.

Same here. But Barry Allen called himself the Flash after Jay Garrick who was his idol but that changed in the CW Flash series

I feel like people only like Barry for the Johns dead mother Retcon and then flashpoint, people don’t really talk about much else. His legacy as a dead hero was stronger (I mean the return of Barry Allen is all about Wally) And heroes in crisis is a bizarre thing to use against Wally, considering his family was essentially dead him being upset and needing some help isn’t a bad thing (and then the actual murders weren’t Wally but Savitar) Barry has also done bad things but doesn’t seem to held to the same account

jay like the only flash that didint change the timeline

Wally is without question the best variation of The Flash to ever exist. Rebirth and the television series made me research and respect Barry, but when I think of The Flash, Wally will always be first for me.

Great video! I think that if we were able to see pre-flashpoint continuity continue, it’d be interesting to see Bart Allen continue to develop and I truly think he could be a strong contender for the best flash. His potential was shown to be through the roof: he was intuitively doing things that even Wally wasn’t doing. His arc with the Teen Titans that transitioned him from Impulse to Kid Flash forced him to grow up and from that point he was portrayed as a very competent hero. With Wally and Barry’s mentorship, he could really be the next step above Wally in his prime

Wally is undoubtedly the best Flash. He's the one who discovered all additional powers that Barry is depicted with these days. He's the fastest, and he showed the most growth as a person in his tenure as the Scarlet Speedster. He went from a girl-crazy, unsure kid to a mature, confident, well-respected father of twins. I'm not going to go into the Heroes in Crisis because that was badly written and characterized Wally poorly. And it was revealed that Reverse Flash framed him for the deaths in that story. Not to mention realizing you need some therapy is a strength, not a weakness. Maybe if Barry went that route we wouldn't have multiple versions of Flashpoint ... Barry is disqualified because literally every modern version of Barry is depicted as wrecking the timeline of his particular universe. He was well-rounded, mature and inventive in the Silver Age, but his portrayal has regressed since then. So no, I can't agree that Barry is the best.

From a superhero team perspective, Wally is the best, because when you have a group of relatively serious-minded individuals on a team like the Justice League, you need to balance out the group psychology with a funny guy. Granted, Barry can be a funny guy, but Wally is more efficient in that regard, cause he can be a real buffoon sometimes, but it's because of that buffoonery that makes him very human in contrast to most DC Superheroes, or Superheroes in general.

I think what it is, is that wally barely was seen or even mentioned by name with his mask off in the justice league tv shows, which is were alot of us found are love for the flash character. With movies and tv shows causally mention Barry Allen by name as The Flash such as "Catch me if you can" or even those that seen the 90s Flash show, barry Allen became the most recognizable name associated with The Flash for those that didn't read the comics in that period of time. By the time of the 2010s, barry had already came back to life and started appearing more and more in media such as the comics, injustice games, lego batman games,movies, and even tv shows- making a whole new generation of people that only know Barry allen as the Flash, not knowing how much Wally west brought to the flash character and unfortunately I seem to kinda fall in that same crowd being a 05 baby and all.

But why then did DC incorporate more of Wally when representing Barry in live action? Wally may edge it out as the best..

Yeah someone else pointed it out but the kid flash image used at 2:35 talking about Wally, is literally from Bart Allen revealing his transition from impulse to kid flash during his time in Teen Titans.

not the same. wally was the leader of the flash family and the main flash for 23 years. well into his years most people forgot about barry. only till flash rebirth was he relevant again. dick was only batman for 4 years and terry is future batman not present so he isn’t part if this convo

Sick intro music

Can you make a vid on who’s the best Green Lantern???

Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video?

Wally beats Barry’s a$$ always so that’s why he’s the best.

Tl;dw - My educated guess is Wally. I mean, the man is LITERALLY in tune with the Speed Force.

This video is so odd. You use several images of Bart Allen for Wally. You only really use images of Wally's rebirth suit which is telling. You get so much information wrong, Barry did not create the speedforce that was a retcon from 2009 that was immediately ignored and retconned by Williamson. You say Barry introduced the most aspects of The Flash which is straight up wrong. You reference heros in crisis which is hated and ISN'T VALID ANYMORE because every aspect of it was retconned even the deaths of those characters. This video is clearly biased and just wrong.

Hi Aries, Ive seen a panel that shows that Thawn is even faster than Walley and the only reason he loses to barry is cos because he never wants to beat his idol/hero.

Obviously it’s Wally

I remember before Barry Allen's Flash Jay Garrick was my favorite when I was really young because I was a huge fan of that helmet he wears and he still is

I’d love a video on the Speed Force

Its Wally. I cannot understand how y'all see Barry as the best. He was fairly one note for most his original time as Flash then he died then Wally became The Flash, introduced the speedforce and Flash family and was actually interesting. Then Barry came back, was made more like Wally, stole his suit and stories and even villians. Its Wally.

Remind me again, Barry was introduced before wally right, if Barry first dawned the costume and has been playing the hero part long before wally how in tf is that stealing?

@BardiaOmega Barry wore a different suit that Wally altered to suit his character, Barry came back and stole his designs. Barry had like a couple issues by himself before Wally was introduced. Then he died for over 25 years so I'd say Wally has been a hero much longer.

want you to do a wally west an Bart Allen all powers and abilities vid

Keemstar: I’m fast asf boi

Wally is the one true Flash. Geoff Johns should have left Barry dead.

Always going to be Wally for me. Kid Flash was my favorite character growing up. Don't really know why. I think I liked his costume more than anything else. Watching Wally grow from reluctant/failing hero to unlikeable jerk to the best Flash ever was a treat. I hate everything done to the character over the past fifteen years.

Best Flash in my opinion is Barry but the fastest Flash is Wally

Would it be awesome if we saw a competition between Jay Garrick, Barry Allen and Wally West on the Big Screen or TV Shows to see which Flash is the best?

Wally is the best flash Wally is so awesome as a flash that when they got rid of him and did rebirth to barry it just gave all his awesome traits to Barry Wally West baby
