But Roven admits the writers’ strike and the looming actors’ strike haven’t helped the process out. While The Flash can move at light speed, travel through time on a treadmill and perform other such feats, lengthy contract negotiation is not among his skills.

Until then, I guess we’ll have to be satisfied with Flash adventures in comic form. Or we could check out the cult classic TV show from the 1990’s.

The act saw Allen come to be referred to as “DC’s first official saint.” In a genre of writing where death is about as permanent as the common cold, Allen’s 23-year demise seemed destined to stick. DC had teased his return in storylines throughout that period but they were usually either temporary or a trick.

In one storyline, Flash foe Professor Zoom posed as Barry to trick current Flash Wally West into thinking he was no longer necessary. But there is the possibility that this one could be temporary as well. Barry told Wally he would return from the dead three times, during the times the younger hero needed him most. He’s already used two of those “lives,” so there is much speculation this could be a temporary return as well.
