The pisser with DC is they actually made some huge decisions over the years in killing big names like Barry and Hal, decisions that were sposed to be final unlike a death of Superman, Wonder Woman or Batman which are always known as being temporary.
As much as Barry and (especially) Hal are two of my faves from years gone by, their stories should have ended when they died (or in Hals case, maybe he should not have died but stayed as Parallax), but DC just have no respect for the characters or fans anymore, and just give in to whiney fanboys or think this will be a huge money spinner, so fuck how meaningful their deaths were.
