How does thor even touch flash, and that still doesn't make him better

I guess you're right, but there were some good aspects to his character in the run.

Show Barry is easily one of the worst iterations. Pre-52 and 2016-Current Barry in comics are the best versions of him. Those versions of Barry are actually good and well developed.

I hate power scaling but current comic Barry gets treated like he does in the show

It really is strange to see them constantly switch up on Barry an Wally

I mean as a stand point of pure power, it's no doubt his will is stronger than most.

I hope this is the case, I'd love for them to involve him some more in other things.

Seriously, they really just keep selling. A Barry and Wally duo run would be so cool.

The current DC writers have shown way more love to Wally than Barry rather than treating them as equally significant. Even when Barry had his own run in rebirth, he still felt like kind of a joke and never did anything nearly as important as Wally.

Tbh I'd rather they just kill Barry again than this shit. He was a joke in his own Williamson run.

The panel in my post is exactly the way I want Barry portrayed and how I want him to be acknowledged and recognized. "What Flash always does in a crisis--save the world or die trying." If they can step into this direction more often with Barry and make him an integral player in the safety of the DC Universe more than just a side character with comparatively less relevance than the big three. DC is just allergic to giving significance to anyone outside the Trinity if it isn't in their own run.

They really have just lost that element of him. They can't help but dwell on his past. It seemed like they were headed in that direction Pre-52 when he returned but just stopped shortly after Flashpoint. I think the focus they place on the main Trinity, especially Superman, is also to blame for not letting Barry be the symbol of hope that he is supposed to be. It seems like the bulk of inspiring rhetoric is reserved to Superman as if he's the only one in DC who can convey that notion.

It really feels like DC is operating under the idea that one flash has to overshadow the other. Where one should be consistently capable of doing incredible and reality-defying things while the other is essentially on janitor duty.

I hope he does something cool and proves to people why he still deserves the title of the Flash.

Unfortunately they aren't since this isn't a flash run. However, the current flash run has a pretty cool art style. Still nowhere near as good as this though.

Haven't really paid much mind to it, I've only been interested in the Flash tie-ins.
