Barry and Wally's personality traits have been jumbled so much at this point a lot of people can't tell the difference anymore. Also, he said he's a mechanic, not a scientist exactly.

Leaving past mistakes behind and racing into the future, Wally West returns as Central City’s Scarlet Speedster!
Now reunited with his wife, Linda, and their two children, the former Kid Flash begins a new chapter in his life.

Luckily, an old friend may have just the right job for this blue-collar champion.

Jul 20, 2021Despite a deus ex machina that subverts the script's initial man-on-the-street fun,Flash #772 is a welcome return to grounded, "this-could-be-you" superheroics. Welcome back, Wally West! Read Full Review

Jul 20, 2021After last week's The Flash 2021 Annual, where we saw major revelations for Wally West, it's time to pace things back a little bit this issue and have a smaller, more personal look at Wally and his family and the struggles of having to split your time up between super-heroics and getting a paycheck, but with that aspect, we get some interesting setups, a great cliffhanger, and some great art throughout..... I just wish we could have seen a little more getting a job struggles for Wally. Read Full Review

But Why Tho? - William Tucker
Jul 20, 2021The Flash #772 is a fun fresh start for Wally that is slightly let down by some artistic choices. The plot is exciting and nostalgic, harkening back to a classic Flash comic, and the energy that exudes when the characters are happy in this comic is infectious. But too much exposition and bizarre designs on the main character prevents the comic from really shining. Read Full Review

Jul 21, 2021Wally's new status quo as the Flash is an interesting one, but the Scarlet Speedster could definitely work on slowing down. Read Full Review
