Barry And Ollie

So...Hal's bestest buddy, Barry Allen is back from the dead. I consider this to be a good thing. In Blackest Night, Barry has been performing rather brilliantly.

However, Oliver Queen ALSO consideres himself to be Hal's bestest buddy. Hal of course enjoys being fought over.

As much as I am enjoying Blackest Night (and I AM)...I am also looking forward to seeing if anyone is going to address this little threesome. Hal of course, is USED to people being crazy about him...in fact he has a tendancy to expect people to be crazy about him. That's just part of Hal's weird charm. Ollie is pretty pushy, and a fairly dominant personality, while Barry was usually fairly self-effacing...at least in the old days.

Lately however, he's been doing all kinds of amazing things, and I don't think he's going to be that shy young CSI anymore. And really, when you think about it, a CSI in the DC Universe is a rather cool thing to be...especially since Batman isn't around to do it all anymore.

I just don't want Wally to be eclipsed, or Bart, or Jay or Max, and if they can do such a good job with all the Green Lanterns, and all the Bats, there is no reason why they can't do an equally good job at spotlighting all the Flashes.

Here's Hal and Barry. Doing what Hal usually does. Except that he usually does it with Ollie.

Oh Hal...you minx.
