The Titans. The fan-favorite DC character, Wally West, has finally made the decision to leave the Titans behind and the Justice League in a moment that's been a long time coming.

In Absolute Power #2 by Mark Waid and Dan Mora, the Justice League is left powerless after Amanda Waller's forces drain their abilities. As they receive new gear to accommodate for their lack of powers, a surprising new member is included in their ranks: the Flash, specifically Wally West, whose identity is confirmed when Superman's calls out his name as opposed to Barry Allen's.

Barry's Flash is a mainstay in the Justice League, but Wally West is typically a member of the Titans, even standing alongside them at the start of this issue. Now, it looks like the Fastest Man Alive has moved on from his Titans roots to DC's premier superhero team. Wally West has officially graduated from the Titans to the Justice League, and it's about time he did.

The Flash Gets a New Look for His Justice League Era

And a Cool New Bike

With the Flash's inclusion in the Justice League comes a new costume, courtesy of Superman and Batman. They designed tactical gear for the Justice League so they can fight without their powers. Wally wears a sleek biker-inspired suit, which comes with a Flash-themed motorcycle that acts as a stand-in for his super-speed. It's a cool new look to kick off a new era for the Flash as he fights Waller's forces alongside the Justice League. With an epic costume and a motorized upgrade, it's clear that this Titan has made his way back to the big leagues.

The last time Wally West was an official member of the Justice League in the main DC Universe was in 2009's Justice League of America #31 by Dwayne McDuffie and Shane Davis.

Wally West got his start in the Teen Titans as Kid Flash, and since then he has alternated between the Titans and the Justice League. In recent years, however, he has exclusively been a Titan. Flash took a leave from the Titans in Titans #10 by Tom Taylor and Lucas Meyer, and it seems that he may have left that team for good. Now that the Flash is back in the League, this marks Wally's first time ing the Justice League in over a decade. This moment is a huge milestone for the Scarlet Speedster, and it's only the beginning.

Wally West Is No Longer a Titan

The Flash's reinstatement in the Justice League isn't just a one-time deal. Wally is also featured in the roster of the Justice League Unlimited series by Mark Waid and Dan Mora, which means he is here to stay. From Teen Titan to Titan to Justice Leaguer, Wally West's Flash has come a long way since his days as Kid Flash. Graduating from the Titans to the Justice League feels like a natural progression for his character, and with his new costume and gear, the Flash will surely prove to be an invaluable asset to DC's most iconic team.
