That doesn't make any sense.<BR/><BR/>They probably just did the costume thing as an homage to that history. It is probably a whole new thing.naladahchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02105525754360171571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091122.post-83442129593665120772007-06-22T20:06:00.000-04:002007-06-22T20:06:00.000-04:00The West twins weren't named in the Wally West run...The West twins weren't named in the Wally West run of <B>The Flash</B>.<BR/><BR/>"Barry and Iris" are from <B>Kingdom Come</B>, which is now defined as another of the 52 earths, not an alternate future. <BR/><BR/>Don and Dawn were the "Tornado Twins" from the Legion story in <B>Adventure</B> #373. Admittedly, they were revealed to be Barry's children, and they were blondes, not redheads -- and in that era girls were expected to wear skirts. <BR/><BR/>Allowing for that, these two look a lot more like Don and Dawn than Barry and Iris. (As I said, they seem to share the same tailor.) But they could yet turn out to be Imogene and Eustace.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07184638921669629752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091122.post-32536321747189138232007-06-22T16:58:00.000-04:002007-06-22T16:58:00.000-04:00uh...no.

But they are West people...not Allens. <BR/><BR/>And I'm not sure about Barry because I don't remember the male kid's name...but the girl is definitely Iris.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091122.post-9173740554772852932007-06-22T04:17:00.000-04:002007-06-22T04:17:00.000-04:00I'd like to blame Ed Benes for drawing them as acc...I'd like to blame Ed Benes for drawing them as accessories to Wally rather than people who are disoriented and Brad Meltzer for <I>not bothering</I> to write the part of the scene where Wally introduces his family to Hal and Roy.<BR/><BR/>Even though he spent half an issue on a game of Capture the Fucking Flag at the beginning of this crossover, he doesn't make time to show Wally introducing his family to Hal and Roy.Ragnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00373059673228550524noreply@blogger.com
