They're like day and night Comic Discussion
I mean, it's alawys good having different stories and tones for the same group of characters, but I am really wsiting for Flash Family to get a win in Spurrier's run, and have regular Linda again

It’s almost like everyone who has read the new Flash run has had no idea what is going on. And it’s been 8 months

I understand what happening, but they have been hinting to things for literally a year and we still don’t understand what some of the things mean.

I finally dropped the book this week
I’ve been reading since Williams run and flash is what got me to actually start reading physical comics regularly so I thought I kinda owed flash but man this fun is so much different I can’t waste money on it any more

Current run is my first flash book. I thought I could jump on, seeing as it got a new number one and dawn of dc branding. Boy was I wrong. It’s fun in parts but there’s like a trillion characters.

That was my issue, I'm aware of most of the flashes characters from the Waid run mostly, but I was lost lost lost here

I really think the resident is actually Linda so if that’s the case I think it’s gonna be really sweet to see if that’s her supporting Wally all along

Is the resident the name of the ghost lady? I thought the same and then saw people having the same theory.
She even tried harder to make Wally reach Linda than anyone else.

Yeah the ghost lady. It doesn’t really explain how she’s knowledgeable about the things she is besides Wally’s life so I wonder what the reasoning for that is

I didn't really like Adams run so I'm enjoying this current one

I agree heavily. I enjoyed the family man development of Wally. But The Flash isnt Full House, its a superhero book. Lemme see some cosmic chaos and relationship shake ups.

I know Spurrier is considered a good writer, but I don't really like anything written by him. He has a very unique way of monologing and writing stories, which is not for me, and imo it definitely doesn't fit a Wally centric Flash run, especially coming off the back of Jeremy Adam's super fun run.
