Oof, no offense, but I actually stopped reading right there. I'll just barely tolerate Wally's "COULDA stripped you nakey but I didn't because I'm so NICE" as the kind of stuff 1990s comics thought was funny and transgressive--but the justification for Shayera being able to lay hands on Wally is just unbelievable by ANY standards. Who knew that the way to defeat super-speedsters was to wait twenty seconds until they stopped using their speed and then hit them in the face? Nothing Wally can do about it, he's already stopped moving fast! He can't START moving fast again when the fist starts coming at him, that's just crazy talk!
I mean, we could've used some Thanagarian de-equilibrializer or revealed a remotely activated booby trap in the wings or just given Shayera a moral victory by having her point out Wally's lost the moral high ground, but we don't get any of that. It's the Hawks' book, so she wins, no reason to think it out any further.
