If this is what we come to expect from the <i>big name</i> writers...<br /><br />Besides, maybe I'm being misled by the Bruce Timm Justice League stuff (I never took in too many actual <i>comics</i> from DC) but don't the various Flashes have accelerated metabolisms? Couldn't Barry have healed that leg in a few hours?<br /><br />Or would that be too convenient? Can't have Barry plucking bullets out of the air when he could be shooting them into people instead.
