    I've always liked The Flash, but not as much as some other titles. However, since Jeremy Adams has taken over as writer, it's now my absolute favourite. DC needs to do all they can to make sure he stays on the title for as long as possible, as I'm especially looking forward to the inevitable guest-appearance of Maxine's father, Animal Man.

    Jeremy Adams is continuing to prove himself one of DC's best new talents in a while with his Flash run, which brings Wally West and his family back to the center of the franchise. Read Full Review

    This has been a fun arc so far and Adams keeps taking some surprising twists that keep it unpredictable in setting up a big confrontation with Eclipso. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Eric Shea Jan 25, 2022

    The art in this issue was pretty decent and you'll get your action quota out of the Wally West bits of the story where he takes on those possessed by Eclipso but like the last issue, the real fun of the book is seeing Jai West and his action log going after his sister Irey and her new friend Maxine Baker. It's weird elements like this that make me wish we had a book simply about Wally and Linda's kids. Hopefully going forward both stories will come together and every bit of the book will shine.

    Comic Watch - Matt Meyer Jan 25, 2022

    Flash#778 continues to feel like a story that belonged in another comic somehow wandered into this one, and lost its own sense of purpose along the way. Having a small army of artists doesn't help with what feels like an already-unfocused narrative. I don't want to sound ungrateful as this is absolutely the best Flash readers have had in years, but something about "Vengeance is Mine!" simply isn't clicking. Read Full Review

    There are ways to balance the stories of the Silver Age with some modern flair and I feel that this latest story of the Scarlet Speedster wasn't able to live up to its predecessors, especially when it came to the side plot following Wally and Linda's kids. Read Full Review
