Must watch at 2x

[@terrencecastonguay1984]

Don't get me wrong I like Barry Allen but for me I grew up with the original Wally West, great vid as always.

[@JesseMiddletonUK]

*Thank you for this. Barry Allen is now my #1 favourite DC character. All because of the CW show 'The Flash'.* _Greetings from London, United Kindom!_ 😊

[@baki484]

He's my second after batman but in the flash family definitely number 1 followed by Jay Garrick

[@toren2099]

My second favorite superhero besides Spider-Man

[@cbeaird52]

For the longest time in my young kid life, I thought the Flash in the Justice League animated series was Barry Allen, not Wally West. Just to show how weird I was as a kid.

[@baki484]

Don't worry I was the same given the his origin taking place in the forensics lab. Either way Barry is personally my favorite flash regardless.

[@idongesitusen5764]

To paraphrase a Batman line, the only time Barry Allen was inspiring was when he died. I saw a version of Barry's origin during a superfriends episode & he's always seemed bland and boring to me. Hopefully watching more of the show'll at least get me to care, but I'll always be a Wally West & Jay Garrick Flash idolizer.

[@hasthehighground8560]

I mean everyone in SuperFriends was boring

I started getting involved in comics sometime in the middle of the New 52 era, and it's... surreal... hearing events I remember reading "in-time" mentioned as part of comics history (when you guys start talking about Wally coming back in Rebirth). In my mind, everything since I started reading is "current comics".

[@JulianRodriguez-sn6nr]

Tbh and this may be an incredibly unpopular opinion but I feel Hal Jordan should not have been brought back. In my opinion Kyle Rayner should be the current main Green Lantern.

[@belle208]

I prefer the Barry Allen on The Flash series way better than the comics because he just has so much more personality. He’s a nerdy guy and he’s a little awkward sometimes and I guess a loveable dork. The one thing I do like about the Barry in the comics at least in the recent rebirth series is that he makes a lot of mistakes either not telling someone something thinking he’s protecting them or being a little too much over his head or maybe being too good for his own good I just love that about him. He also doesn’t believe in killing people and just that all together creates a more real person with flaws which the TV show also has but his personality in the comics is just not there. I like how they have it in the show and in the Justice League movie.

[@JulianRodriguez-sn6nr]

@47:16 yeah idk about that one. Flash War was great no doubt. Mark Waid's Flash is in a class of it's own.

[@baki484]

After finding out the flash was wally my curiosity for who Barry was grew.

[@TevyaSmolka]

Yeah this is why I love Wally west flash because he’s way more interesting then Barry Allen ever was

[@Kylarfi]

Steven! Used to listen to Critical hit a lot! Loved him on that. Love the flash too! Thanks for doing this episode. Love the Flash!

[@OthEdden]

JL Year One Justice League is my founding Justice League

[@Gavin1204226]

Yes! My favorite DC superhero!

[@noahmckinnon3382]

I've wanted this for sooo long

[@fatenabu1]

Is this a re-upload?

[@dawnloria6370]

Okay - just help me here...doesn't Reverse Flash go back and save his mom? I may have just misunderstood the story but it seems like a very fundamental thing to the story.

[@cameron3578]

Lol, no

[@hasthehighground8560]

No Reverse Flash goes back and kills his mom

[@nitemare2550]

It's science adjacent
