    This is a solid issue. The premise of making Flash an outlaw and the Rogues heroes is really funny and should make for a good story going forward. The Rogues are an incredible amount of fun to follow and I like that there is accountability on the Flash. He doesn't get to do whatever he wants just because his name is in the title. I recommend checking this issue out. It is a lot of fun. Read Full Review

    The Flash #48 was a fun start to a premise that makes me smile...the Rogues helping the police bring down The Flash.  This issue sets the stage and gets everyone up to speed, but also has some good moments to boot.  While Jesus Merino's art will take me some more time to get used to, it fits the story here and helps give fans a nice, quick read that most should enjoy.

    This chapter doesn't mark any kind of substantial turnaround for the series, but it's a start in a nice direction. Read Full Review

    Perhaps the coming reboot will put this series back on track. We're four years into the run of this "New 52" version, and it's been, without exception, very disappointing. Read Full Review

    Jesus Merino does a good job following Brett Booth's run on the Flash. But all in all this story makes me look forward to Rebirth. Read Full Review

    Any hankering for more of The Fastest Man Alive can be satisfied by rereading the excellent runs of Waid or Johns, or of Manapul and Buccellato. And of course there's always the effervescent and excellent CW television series to tide us over until DC's inevitable house cleaning. Sadly, The Flash's current comic series is still definitely one to avoid. Read Full Review
