shankie...turned me into an even bigger pervert than before.
Impossible, you say? Well, keep this in mind...
Yes; Iris had some instant aging kick in, so, zero to boobs and curvy hips in 30 seconds. And she's a speedster now. With flowy red hair as she kicked the shit out of Grodd with Jai (and a final punch from Dad.)
Wally is understandably very concerned about that; his daughter losing more years of her life like that. But he keeps his chin up and tries to be a proud Daddy in her moment of reaching something resembling adulthood. Then...
...and then she ages even more. Very bad? Yes. Is she still only three months old? Yes.
But damn that girl be fly.
The other issue of the issue is what Wally did to Inertia; which I continue to have mixed feelings about, but I'm mostly on Wally's side of it. Thaddeus was given ample opportunity to be a good person, and yet, still mixed up with Slade and conspired to kill his "brother" and that's just wrong. And somehow I don't think he's going to be in that time-freeze much longer.
Definitely had a weird mix of reactions to this issue.

I wasn't clear on what Wally did to Inertia. What happened?

He stole all of Inertia's velocity, so it would take him hundreds of years to blink and effectively freezing him as a statue that can still think. Harsh. He tells Iris about it in that All-Flash issue that came out before Wally's series re-started.
