    The Death of (In My Opinion) The Best Flash

    Bart Allen is Dead. Killed at the hands of the Rogues. The Speed Force taken from him and The Black Flash there to take him to the beyond.

    He died valiantly against his evil clone Inertia, who would blow up the east coast just to get Bart's speed. The Rogues kill him as he was broken. I was really surprised by this, I had not heard of his impending death. I thought it was just a plot device. But the Black Flash was there.

    I think the return of Barry Allen is what Countdown is about...I may be wrong. Wally West has returned and is again with the JLA.

    I loved this issue and I loved the art. I hate that Bart is dead...but he went out as a hero...and the pain is reflected in Robin's face and the tears on the shoulder of Jay Garrick from Liberty Belle. You will be missed Bart...you were the best Flash in my eyes. Godspeed!

    I agree. I can deal with Wally but Barry needs to stay dead...and Jay is gonna keel over one day. Bart was cool and intelligent.

    Bart was my fave. Barry and Wally where kinda portrayed as older Impulse's in the comics i read. They where just impulsive guys who knew right and wrong. Bart was immature as a child, but when he came back, that stayed in the future. He came back smart and responsible. he didn't get in anyones way, he had ambitions, and he saved lives. He also had the whole speedforce wrapped up in him, and the ability to remember what he read at superspeed, but whatever....

      The Death of the Worst Flash or Marc Guggenheim I Hate You 0

      Out of character.Those are the words that best describe Guggenheim's attempt, and I do stress the word attempt, to write an epic story.The Rogues are not your normal "take over the world" type villains.  They aren't even your psychopathic murdering villains.  They're bank robbers.  They're thieves.  They're crooks.  Not murderers.  The reason they are so successful is because they play by a different set of rules.  Captain Cold has been able to kill the Flash a dozen times.  But he didn't.  Why?...

      Bart Allen I love you. 0

      I love the Flash. I love what he stands for. He fights to the last. He never gives up. And that's exactly what Bart was. I hated to see him die but he was faced against impossible odds that no superhero would have won against. I also liked that they started the comic with a flashback pointing out that morals and his grandfather played a huge role in his life.There are some panels that were so beautifully drawn, like the half Victoria, half Bart panel. Also the "I AM THE FLASH" panel shows his de...
