The Flash is on the run as "The Flash Age" continues! Paradox accomplished his mission to make everyone see the Flash as a monster-and now Flash and the Reverse-Flash are trapped in a 25th century Central City that hates the Flash family and legacy. Now a wanted man, Flash must turn to an unexpected place to get help to return to his own time!

    The Flash #754 is yet another great issue from Joshua Williamson. His run on The Flash has been fantastic since the beginning. But he's been especially on point since Year One. I will miss his interpretation of the Flash, but look forward to his future projects. Read Full Review

    All in all, this is another good issue in a series I don't ever want to end. This is a great job done by everyone involved. Read Full Review

    Ive got no idea where Williamson is going to take this story and am amazed at the various ways it could play out especially with the likelihood that Flash will have to deal with Thawne once he manages to take out Paradox. Read Full Review

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield May 27, 2020

    This is a very intimate comic in some ways, focusing entirely on these two rivals traveling through time without the usual supporting cast. It works really well, but I'm looking forward to a story that brings in all the elements of this book for the final act. Read Full Review

    The penultimate issue of The Flash Age sees tensions at an all-time high with fantastic art to boot. Read Full Review

    Comics: The Gathering - Jay Hill May 26, 2020

    This “Flash Age” arc has been doing everything right. The villain is great, the story has progressed in an unexpected but brilliant way, and the use of Flash history has added substance to this chapter in Barry’s life. If Flash and Reverse-Flash having to team up doesn’t already make you interested in this story, then I don’t know what else to say. The art is also spectacular in this issue and adds weigh to some of the big moments. Paradox is a monster of a foe for the Flash and seeing how Barry (and Eobard) deals with him will be something.

    AIPT - David Brooke May 26, 2020

    This is a gorgeous looking book with some interesting elements and nice throwbacks for longtime readers. It's certainly a setup issue, but if you ride the high of the visuals you'll make it through quickly and painlessly. Read Full Review

    The latest issue that continues Barry's war against Paradox has the added benefit of giving us the most unlikely of team ups as the Flash partners up with Eobard Thawne, The Reverse Flash. Williamson and Sandoval weave a story that will hopefully be seen as one of the best Flash stories of the modern Rebirth-Era of DC Comics. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Matt Meyer May 28, 2020

    Flash #754 may have a couple of blindingly obvious plot holes that exist due to an overuse of gimmickry, but that doesn't stop it from being a flat-out FUN comic. Sometimes, pure escapism is all you need. Read Full Review

    Rafa Sandoval has some beautiful art in this issue. There are some awesome hero panels, a great splash page with Thawne and Barry and Paradox's destructive path through Flash's life offers some great visual moments and nods to the characters legacy. Read Full Review

    Newsarama - Pierce Lydon May 27, 2020

    Like I said with the last issue, if you are already waist-deep in this run, you'll probably want to keep wading further to reach the conclusion but it's unlikely that you'll be surprised by anything Williamson is offering here. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Dan Mayhoff May 26, 2020

    All of the good will that this book earned in the previous issue has been immediately lost as the most interesting plot points are almost immediately thrown away in favor of some more of the most predictable and boring storytelling you can think of. I've officially thrown in the towel when it comes to hoping that this story will rise in quality. At this point, I'm hoping that we quickly are able to defeat this newest villain and we can move into the next story arc where hopefully we will have some great storytelling, because clearly it isn't going to happen in this one.
