Indeed, it will be good to find out what has happened to the Wests since we last saw them. I'm interested to see how the back-up feature is going to work.
There have been some "Tales of the Sinestro Corps" backup stories in the main Green Lantern title over the last few months as well.
Interesting note: Mark Waid mentioned in an interview a while back that the twins would not have superspeed, but that their powers were "side effects" of speed powers. Not quite sure how that will work out, but we'll see.
Also, the Newsarama preview for All-Flash #1 has Wally telling Superman that the twins are named "Iris" and "Jai". Yes, Jai with an "i" as opposed to a "y". Probably to reflect Linda's Korean heritage, but I'm not sure.
