Considering the ages of Nightwing and Beast Boy, it's entirely possible for Wally to be old enough to call himself Kid Flash, and even if Teen Titans gets cancelled, Bart can get a solo series as Impulse so the name "Kid Flash" would be available for Wally to use.

    And then Hot Spot, Argent, Risk, and Prysm can all join the team.
    Id rather Wally not be Kid Flash again, it would just feel like a demotion to me same goes for potential reintroductions of Donna Troy and Garth. Id rather he get like a new identity or we just have two Flashes running around again.

    Though if being Kid Flash is the only way Wally West returns then id guess Id just have to deal with it.

Because, frankly, he's the only one of them that has any kind of other media representation. If someone watches the Young Justice show and wants to get into comics off the back of it... what would they read to see a familiar character? Tim Drake and Cassie Sandsmark are unrecognisable between the show and the comic - with different powersets and personalities. Kid Flash is someone else. But they'd recognise Blue Beetle - the Latino kid in his alien armour. Likewise from his Brave and the Bold run.

    Leaving aside opinions on the character itself, it just seems bad marketting to have your only recognisable "Young Justice" team member not in any of your Young Justice titles.
    Bunker and Bart have both read as more fun characters recently, especially when dialogued by FabNic. And if you're ever wondering why DC seems to dislike any reference to Young Justice, here's an article I always find interesting:http://blog.newsarama.com/2006/07/24...-vs-dan-didio/

    I would prefer if Wally was Flash instead of Kid Flash, but considering how Bart has established a sequence of Impulse -> Kid Flash -> Flash, it's hard to think of what would be the alternative to a Flash beyond Flash-in-training. I grew up on cartoons with Wally, so I'd prefer to see him as the Flash, but I suppose I'd be okay with giving him a new identity as long as it isn't stupid.

    the Teen hero line is named Young Justice, they have a show also called Young Justice, the main characters in Titans right now are the YJ4, I think DC is actually over that.

    besides Claude was refering the the Young Justice animated series which is an entirely different beast from the late 90s/early 2000s Young Justice comic.

    I laugh at Didio's view of Lobo though. Lobo is at his best when he's played for full satire, he's dangerous and a real threat yeah but I wouldn't really call him Dark ether even with how many people he kills, he's just too over the top for that.

    Yeah, I haven't read much about Lobo, I've always seen him as a cosmic Wolverine that gets in Deapool-like situations.
    LOL, that probably shows that I don't know anything about the character :D

    He's well, he's basically a parody of XXXTREME anti-hero's that arose in the 90s.
