No, Wally West Didn't Murder Lagoon Boy – Apparently

As revealed in Heroes In Crisis #8 by Tom King, Travis Moore and Mitch Gerads, we saw just how Wally West killed everyone. Accidentally of course. Triggering an alarm when he somehow managed to piece all of the Sanctuary information together in order to release it to the world… As the rest of the clients of Sanctuary stepped out behind him, and going boom, killing them all.

So... Who Killed Lagoon Boy In Heroes In Crisis?

Except… that's not how it happened the first time around. Specifically as to the death of Lagoon Boy. Who had been going through a Sanctuary-created reality that saw him relive a time when he was shot by some laser beam or whatnot, reliving the traumatic experience repeated in order to come to terms with it, and heal. And who, in Heroes In Crisis, rather than being blown up by the Speed Force, found everyone already dead…So... Who Killed Lagoon Boy In Heroes In Crisis?

Only to be shot in the gut on doing so. Or somehow speared. So after the accidental deaths, did Wally West then very deliberately do in Lagoon Boy? Seems not. Tom King took to Twitter yesterday to talk about this…

Sort it out for the collection, maybe? Remember the original plan was to have Wally West blow up the place with machine guns, with the suggestion that he may have thought he was still in a Sacnctuary-preojected reality – which this earlier scene would fit better into. But that things changed along the way…

Look for more about that Wally West comic as we approach San Diego Comic-Con…
