Yes -- I loved that in Astounishing too.
The Flash left me very confused. Okay in IC they showed Barry Allen at his wife Iris' grave. And now she is alive? Help!
Also, Roy couldn't find somebody NOT related to a super-villain to babysit? Come on!
Bye, now. Have good sex.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
As confusing as Teen Titans is, the explanation is even more confusing. Meep!

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Sumi, Iris Allen-West, the once deceased wife of Barry Allen, AKA the Flash, was murdered way back in the silver age, except that she was actually from the 30th century, and so was rescued and revived at last minute but, for various reasons, had to stay there. Eventually, Barry joined her there for a while, before biting the big one to save the universe. Bart Allen--Impulse--is her and Barry's grandson.
She came back to the present eventually for various Bart-related reasons other people can explain better than me.

Ah, yes. Another explanation that MAKES NO SENSE. Comic logic is insane troll logic, isn't it?
I'm avoiding thinking about the Teen Titans explanation because I don't want my head to spin, but are they launching a new book in about future Teen Titans?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

He's calling himself Kid Flash now, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
are they launching a new book in about future Teen Titans?
Didn't they do that already?

There's a reason for where that phrase was born.

How many times did Buffy die again?
Did she flatline after getting shot by Warren? I honestly can't remember.
