I think you could do a cool Flash Christmas special.

Bill Willingham has attemped to explain Santa clause in his Fables title.

What if.

Barry Allen and the Flash family delivered every single kid in the world a present on christmas eve night? At super speed. Which would explain how santa can be everywhere at once.

The gifts would taken from Larfleeze's secret gift stash. If Agent Orange is so greedy, Wouldn't he steal every single thing he could get his hands across in the Galaxy? Including Gifts? Lets say, For the sake of an elseworlds story. He had stole christmas gifts along with all the other more important things he steals from alien worlds. And these worlds do celebrate christmas as well, or some form of it,Which entails giving out gifts.

Hmm.... Geoff really knows just the right way to tease us. The easiest assumption from "two books in April" is both the Flash and Kid Flash books starting the same month. But he also mentions "alterations" to the books, so something might be different from what we previously knew.

Hmmm... Two ongoing Flash books plus a Kid Flash book seems like too much to start with. Maybe they decided to take Wally's co-feature out of the main Flash book and turn it into a mini-series? Or series of minis?

An unlikely option is maybe giving Barry and Wally the two ongoings and having Kid Flash be the co-feature of one. I was looking forward to a full-lengthed Kid Flash book, so I hope that one is wrong.

Hmmm... intriging.

It means that the books have been retooled, and now both star the Top instead of the Flashes. Sorry to spoil Geoff's surprise...

To be honest, for Wally I'd probably prefer co-feature instead of mini-series. Look at how much the Ion mini did for Kyle, not a lot. And at least a co-feature is a constant presence instead of a slow fade into "That character who appears in pile-on scenes". Plus DC's track record with putting the right people on the right books is less then stellar, like giving Adam Beechen Batgirl, when his use of the character caused her drop in popularity, then just saying "Well we made a mini and you guys didn't buy it, so the character had to go!".

No Dan, give us some credit. We want good books about characters we like, not just a book.

I hope that Kid Flash is still getting a full 22 pages per month series...

Very excited about the main Flash series either way.

I think a wait and see approach might be prudent.

Otherwise. Too much speculation and worry will lead to doom!

Will Bart get nostalgic for his glory days and go BACK to Impulse with Iris as Kid Flash in a back up?!?!

That was done years ago in a JLA (possibly JLE) story. Hal was Santa making the sleigh and gifts with his ring and Wally was his reindeer. I guess Christmas eve is a boring night for monitor duty

Or maybe the Kid Flash book is really Impulse, starring Irey all by herself? Wouldn't THAT ruffle some feathers.
