Previous Post I'm hopelessly out of touch with everything. When exactly is "now"? I'm having enough trouble following the characters whose books I get. I can't afford to subscribe to everything and there is no comic shop within walking distance. I assume Bart will come back to life. But I would have assumed the same about Barry if I had been reading -- and able to follow -- everything in 1985. Marvel and DC kill characters to increase sales and then bring them back to life to increase sales. Barry may yet be resurrected. Yes, 22 years is a long time. Compared to how long Bucky was dead, that's yesterday. Speaking of right after 52, I think Roy Harper is SO much better for the JLA that Oliver Queen has ever been. I'll take a drug addict in recovery over a jack ass any day. Being in recovery myself, I know that I am still sincere and I care. A jack ass is just a jack ass.

Also, may I add this question to that followup post:
Is Liberty Bell now tapping into the Speed Force?
Not into JSA at all but sample it on occasion. This issue:

was excellent! It seems to suggest a revelation/update to the speedsters count.
