Apr 22, 2026This issue is one of the best of the entire run, reminding me a little of the brilliant Court of Owls labyrinth issue that helped to put Scott Snyder on the map in 2011. Read Full Review

Nerd Initiative - Matthew Roth
Apr 22, 2026Absolute Flash #14 is creative and a lot of fun as the team puts us in a spin cycle within the mirror dimension. The issue ends teasing us with what is to come and bonds Linda and Wally even closer together. Additionally, there is a fun easter egg of another hero in this universe we catch a glimpse of making this world feel even more connected. Read Full Review

May 06, 2026This issue does a solid job of continuing the story set up last month. However, it’s very much one that needs to be experienced and interacted with to fully appreciate what it’s doing. It’s difficult to convey just how effective some of these choices are without actually having the comic in your hands. Read Full Review

Fanlight Zone - Ken M.
Apr 22, 2026Mirror Master’s schemes push Wally West into uncomfortable places in this latest chapter. Lemire plays into smoke and mirrors with the plot of this issue. Haining and Lucas take a gamble with their two page spreads. Blink and you’ll miss what trouble Wally West is finding in this latest arc. Read Full Review

This is still a padded comic with not much story progression.
But it’s the most I’ve enjoyed the series since the beginning.
