Just one week after the new creative team of Robert Venditti, Van Jansen and Brett Booth take over The Flash with April's #30, the new creative team will bring Wally West to the New 52 in The Flash Annual #3. West marks the second major omission from the New 52's continuity to have a return announced for the near future; Stephanie Brown, formerly Spoiler and then Batgirl, will be reintroduced (presumably as Spoiler) in the pages of Batman: Eternal, the new weekly series starting in April. Wally's return comes amid a year-long celebration of The Flash, according to DC, who are building to the character's TV pilot on The CW  in fall 2014. The USA Today article where the return was announced did not give any additional details as to Wally's return, although based on the cover it seems as though either Cobalt Blue or the Black Flash is making a New 52 return, and there are two Flashes on the cover. Whether that's Barry and Wally, or just two images of Barry as a result of super-speed effects, we probably won't know until the Annual hits.
