Which Flash For Which Justice League? (Infinite Frontier Spoilers)
In the solicitations for Flash and Justice League in the Infinite Frontier March and April titles from DC Comics, there's been some query as to which Flash is where and what… and even why.
The ongoing Flash series in March leads with the retirement of Wally West but it doesn't look like it sticks. As we are told "Barry Allen and Wally West must confront the past by way of a Justice League led by Green Arrow." The new Brian Bendis Justice League has a Flash but doesn't specify which one. And the ongoing series seems to focus on Wally West as he reunites with the Future State Legion character Gold Beetle.
Infinite Frontier #0 seems to define the character's futures a little more. With Barry Allen stating that, yes, Wally West is The Flash now. Which makes West's solicited announced retirement even odder. But as for Barry Allen? He's joining the Justice League – just not the Bendis Justice League. Rather he is going to work for The Totality, as we saw in Death Metal #7, in the House Of Heroes as part of the Justice League Incarnate.
A new Justice League… for everything? Encapsulating an idea and making it flesh? And also, a new JLI for the DC Omniverse. Lots more Infinite Frontier gossip here…
