Wally West's Best Flash Costume Came from DC's Version of The Boys
A dark world like that of The Boys might not seem like the ideal place for an optimist like Wally West's version of the Flash. However, when the metahumans of DC's universe become hunted by an elite task force, the third Flash still manages to be a true hero… and he does so in what might be his best costume.
Wally West has had more costume changes than most heroes in the DC Universe. As Kid Flash, he started out in a miniature Flash costume, before graduating to the iconic red and yellow costume with his hair exposed that most fans are familiar with. From there he would go on to gain a variety of costumes, such as the costume he gained when he took over for Barry Allen, his red and silver Rebirth costume, and Wally West's more recent all-blue Dr. Manhatten costume. Though many of these costumes are good or even great, none of them quite reach the heights of his outfit from Nightwing: The New Order.

Coming from the creative team of Kyle Higgins and Trevor McCarthy, Nightwing: The New Order is a dark future where Nightwing has turned against DC's heroes. After an all-out war between heroes and villains results in Batman's death, Nightwing detonates a bomb in Metropolis, eliminating the Justice League and stripping most of the world's metahumans of their powers. Luckily one hero it didn't affect was Wally West. Joining together with his former friends from the Teen Titans, Wally forms a resistance group to Nightwing's anti-metahuman task force. To reflect the dark future, Wally's new costume is predominantly black with red lines imitating lightning. Tying the outfit together is the iconic yellow bolt still at the center of the costume.
