I started reading and collecting Flash comics around the time the CBS TV series came out in 1990 (I believe my first issue was #34 or so). Initially I didn't care for Wally as the Flash and focused my collecting on back-issues from Barry's run.
But around issue #50 I started to warm to Wally as the Flash. Then Mark Waid totally won me over with The Return of Barry Allen story arc.
I'm also a big Dick Grayson fan (as Robin, Nightwing, and/or Batman) and some of my favorite back-issues are ones that feature both Dick and Wally and incorporate their friendship into the storylines. (New Teen Titans #39 is one of my all time favorite single issues). There's also an issue of Nightwing from 2 or 3 years ago that Wally guested in where Dick and Wally clinked their beer bottles together in a toast to the recently deceased Bart that was another favorite of mine.

Oh wow. You have been a long time fan. hehe. I started the beginning of last year. I don't really have a favorite Flash yet, but I am inching more towards Barry Allen. He had it rough. :/ Welcome to the board!

He had it rough. :/ Welcome to the board! I started out as more of a Barry fan than Wally fan. But Mark Waid really turned that on its head with The Return of Barry Allen storyline. If you can find the TPB of that I highly recommend picking it up. It's a brilliant read. One of the best Flash stories ever.
