I personally don't need a catchphrase. I'm already so famous after Rob gave me a bowling trophy and mentioned me in his blog.
Which was really nice of him seeing as how i never read his blog or played bowling.

It is Wally (and Linda and the twins) that are back. The Legionnaire that "died" was to be Karate Kid, but he "ducked" the lightning strike.

Meh, Guggenheim was doing a really good job on this book....DC screwed him they apparently hate kids now (ie Superboy, etc). This was an alright issue as far as deaths go, it was valiant and reminiscent of the Hippolyta death issue in wonder Woman...this had a nice Barry flashback. The writing was fine, but a bit rushed -it seems like 2 issues compressed into one.
I love Wally being back, but 2 things...1) you kill Bart in this book to make way for Wally who comes back in JLA 10??WTF??? Couldn't you have had Wally at least come back as a result of Bart's lost Speed Force or something..Jeebus!
2) Why are you killing Bart, why did you age him, why did you let those shitty writers get a hold of this book and fuck up your plans, because I know you changed them--people hated Bart as Flash so you killed him, but people were starting to like Bart after you made plans to kill him...WTF?
Didio is a jerk and has no idea how to direct a comic company--first rule don't listen to internet fans...they chnage their minds every 5 seconds.
Lord!
Now they are letting Mark Waid come back to write Flash....Mark Waid sucks now...have you read any of his shit from the past 6 years? Oy......
An utter disappointment although I don't think Guggenheim is to blame here---it was a decent death story....

Brave & Bold's actually pretty good.
yeah, DC's been really transparent on this one. I do credit them for realizing that this take on Flash wasn't working and trying to fix it, but it seems like they've gone way too overboard. but I haven't read it and don't plan to.
oh, and also this whole "we planned it this way from the start!" business. suuurrreee, JQ, suuuurreeee. . .

Seems like a jumble of turd to me--minus the art.

I was going to mention this I agree completely

I thought it worked for the format. I like the multiple subplots, and the actual story reasons for the teamups. rather than just "random" characters tossed together for no real reason.

Random team-ups mean it isn't written with a TPB in mind...I like random...
Why not Adam strange and Supergirl, why not Phantom stranger and Lobo???

random can work if it's not the only way it's done and if the pairing is strong enough. after a while though, it becomes repetitive.
I think Adam Strange and Supergirl is coming up, actually. but I might be wrong.
Phantom Stranger and Lobo could be interesting.
I've always wanted to see the Question and the Creeper teamup, meself.

Yeah, I've had a long list of team-ups in mind, but i wanted to see this series be done in ones with an occasional two-parter.

SPOILERS!
I'm relieved that Karate Kid won't be the Legionairre who dies. He's died so many times already that he actually ought not to even exist anymore....

Wally returning in JLA was weak. Yeah, it's about damn time he's back, but it should be in his own title or in Countdown. Meltzer didn't really make me care about him returning in this storyline. It just kinda happened. I'm looking forward to a new writer, one that can do slam-bang action.

Hmmm, I was thinking it was Bart...
Or at least his speed force.

Who care about any of this shit!
Comics no longer have any credibility when it comes to deaths!
So they killed Bart............so fucking what.
They killed Hal, Ollie, Jason, Wally and god knows how many others, and where are they now............oh yeah, alive and kicking again!
Give it a few years and Bart will probably be revealed as going back to the 30th century as a baby or something!
