The Flash by Mark Waid, Book 5 by Mark Waid

4.0

Wally West is kind of an asshole. So is this other superhero guy. I like that. I like these comics where superheroes are assholes. Not like "The Boys" level of assholes where they're supercriminals or whatever, just where they're regular people emotionally and have understandable emotional motivations, the big difference being they have the superpowers that allow them to act out their motivations on a different level. I want to be a superhero, so I steal some equipment, time travel, and so on.

It feels more real to me, like what would happen if real people had superpowers. Because no amount of running fast makes Wally West a good boyfriend.
