    The OTHER Wally West remains Kid Flash (as a name-sake cousin) and gets Wally's old costume.

      I think both outfits work although I will always be impartial to the yellow and red for Kidflash. I think the colors are just very striking.

        The classic yellow/red Kid Flash costume is one of the greatest comic costumes of all time. Maybe even better than Infantino's own Barry/Flash design! BUT, Wally is older, so he doesn't need to be Kid Flash while Dick and company grow up and out of their sidekick roles.

        The white/silver and red combo reminds me of the "Dark Flash" Walter West look, which I really liked!

          I've never been a fan of the moptop/mask combo, and the absence of yellow just seems wrong. The classic design remains perfect...in other words,

          If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

            yeah, never cared for it either, kinda gives away your hair color for your secret id. Gil Kane's redesign of Mar-Vell worked, tho.

              You and me both! Wally's Teen Titans/Mego Kid Flash costume is one of the all time classics IMHO.

                Can't disagree on Wally getting a more grown up suit, and this one's ok. I can do without all the cluttery lightning bolts all over though, and why do these artists feel the need to add seams and such? Especially on speedsters who should look sleek & smooth...like olympic speed skaters or bobsledders. On the plus side there's no v collar!

                  The younger Kid Flash has what has to be the stupidest giveaway tell shaved into his hair. Why bother with the mask when you are showing off your pretty unique hairstyle?? Terrible design flaw.

                    They'll probably come up with something like thats the cool haircut everyone in Central City has now.
                    I also like that they need red stripes on the shoes to be cool.

                      This is of course a riff from the ORIGINAL Flash Rebirth that brought back Barry Allen. Which was a bit of a homage to Wally in the JLU cartoon, as well as the original live action TV show suit.

                        Only thing I don't like about the Kid Flash outfit are the toes on his boots. As to Wally's new outfit,I'm fine with it.
