Is "All In" a play on Barry's last name Allen?

----

All the other character posters use that tagline, so I am guessing no.

This shows the problem of using "photoshop artists".

You're insulting the TRUE photoshop artists out there... this was done by a hack.

The problem is his left leg and left arm are both "forward".  It should be left leg forward, right arm forward.  The way he's depicted, he's gonna fall over...

Art College taught me a lot about this stuff. Nothing like having a real human being posing to show how the body works. Weight on left leg, right hip will drop and right shoulder will rise. Same effect gives us right leg forward, right arm back.

And it's not rocket science. Yet I see it done incorrectly a lot. Even by an artistic supergenius like me! (Altho I have more trouble when the camera angle crosses the 90° line as someone goes thru a door -- dang hinges keep switching sides!)

BTW -- why would a super speedster wear a costume that's all flaps and flanges? Wouldn't s/he want it as smooth as possible?

Something akin to a speed skater or a cyclist seems like an obvious choice. I guess there is no "snowspeeder breaks" incident in the new Justice League movie?

JB: "why would a super speedster wear a costume that's all flaps and flanges? Wouldn't s/he want it as smooth as possible?"

Oh, but then it doesn't look like cool armored outfits that EVERYONE is wearing these days! Like Superman, Batman, Black Panther... it's the vogue! Smooth costumes that are easy to draw? Gawd, that's SO 1970s!

Nope, complicate the outfit! Put bells and bangles and bows on it! And can't we bring back leather jackets and pouches? The Flash would look so excellent with a leather jacket over a hoodie!

Brainless. Make the comics match the movies. Because in a movie, nobody has to draw these costumes 100 times an issue.

This looks like a very strong contender for "worst costume ever". Ugh..
