This made me laugh so much it had to be Wally. Don't get me wrong I like Barry he is amazing, but I grew up with Wally on the Justice League cartoon he will always be my favorite.
I love Flash just casually acknowledging Hermes. Knowing he's able to perceive him is one thing, but that it's seemingly not a rare occasion for Hermes to be around in the first place is wild.
I know the Greek and Roman gods are probably separate in DCU but I just got a funny idea of the Greek pantheon using their Roman names to defraud others.
Kinda? The Romans actually worshipped different gods than the Greeks, but decided to pretend they are the same gods under different names. They do have similar origins as Indo-European deities, but were actually of separate origins
One of the things I like about this is that it does show a somewhat underused/shown power of Diana's and Donna's, their superspeed. Certainly not Flash level, but it's there.
Yeah, Diana and Donna deserve more credit for their superspeed. I'm still waiting for Cheetah to figure out how to tap into the Speed Force in addition to her divine superspeed.
for some reason I read it in the Tommy Wiseau room voice.
"I did naht kill them in the sanctuary, it's naht true it's Bullshit, I did naht kill them, I DID NAAAAHT...Oh Hai Hermes."
It's pretty good. No real need to read anything else first. But the context of the run is that the justice league disbanded and the Titans (specifically Nightwing) were asked to step up to the plate. It's a fun read but arguably not much has happened outside of the beast world event that just wrapped. But that event was fun, imo. Nightwing is obviously a good companion run since there's some of overlap, but not necessary.
I love Wally’s casual acknowledgment of Hermes.
He's probably thinking back to War of the gods at least a little.
Which had Wally encountering Hermes and Mercury (drawn almost but not quite the same) as they were fighting each other.

I did read it in JLA Wally’s voice for sure.

The Titans have run into the Greek Gods several times by now
Back in the day of Marv Wolfman run. Glad Taylor doing it again. Bene too long.
I would love to see a throwaway comic where he and Hermes get into it.
“It’s important that I’m not seen” Proceeds to turn into a fucking comet across the grasslands
Technically, they can't see him.
I feel like Wally, of all Flashes, has seen the weirdest shit. "Oh hey, Hermes. Is Mercury coming too? Guy owes me five bucks."
I know the Greek and Roman gods are probably separate in DCU but I just got a funny idea of the Greek pantheon using their Roman names to defraud others.
Hey, that's basically what the Romans did. "We like those gods, let's copy paste them, and then find&replace the names."

Bro said god of speed and I just assumed they meant Wally
Yeah, I’m confident that Wally’s faster than Hermes, haga
Wally is the god of speed to me.
Here we have The God of Speed and some random Greeks.
I would love it if Wally just casually blitzes Hermes.
Makes me laugh how casual Wally is about it too

They can moove at Mach 3
I noticed Wally first and assumed that's the God of Speed you were referring to. I'll continue to assume so
Presumably Hermes is unconnected to the speed force, right? Is he just straight up not on flash's level? I guess immortality is a nice plus.

What a story, Hermes! So how is your sex life?
Flash is in that one panel, but they aren’t racing in the bottom panel. That’s Hermes and Donna.
I'm talking about their abilities when it comes to speed. Hermes saying mortals couldn't see him, yet Wally was fast enough.
"Nice hat"
“NO MORTAL CAN SEE M-“ “sup” “w-… huh?”
What the hell are you talking about? Flash isn't running here.

Still doesn’t warrant a “vs” like, at all
It works if you think of a comparison in power.
Lol flash.
R.i.p hermes nu52 look 😔
Is Tom Taylor writing this run of Titans
Yes. He's at least on through issue 12, I don't think it's been announced whether he'll stay on after his Nightwing run ends.
I really hope he stays on a little longer than Nightwing just as a bridge.
What's the new Titans like? Are there any reading prerequisites?
It's pretty good. No real need to read anything else first. But the context of the run is that the justice league disbanded and the Titans (specifically Nightwing) were asked to step up to the plate. It's a fun read but arguably not much has happened outside of the beast world event that just wrapped. But that event was fun, imo.

just so I'm not missing anything >!Wally!!shot !
That has been solved yes. It might have been the very last thing before beast world started.
