The Black Flash
May. 7th, 2009 01:58 pmSo I went looking for the post I made of this a long time ago, only to find I'd made it at scans_daily, not here, so it's been bahleeted. One person in particular wanted to know who this creepy bastard is, so, here's his first in-person appearance in continuity; previously, there were a few indicators of something weird being up with speedster deaths, and in The Flash #138, he appeared in a photo of Wally, then another in the next issue, freaking out Max and Jay...

But honestly, I think this thing could freak anybody out.
Especially if it was chasing you.
These are all from #140 & #141; Linda has just died. Superman makes a speech at her funeral and everything. Linda's mom slaps Wally in the face then screams at him for it all being his fault. Wally turns into a powerless wreck. He grows facial hair and decides to leave for Europe and be depressed away from everyone. It doesn't work out like that.
( One by one, death caught up with the fastest men alive. )
And that's how Wally told death itself to bugger off.
