A lot can happen in 60 seconds...as the Flash event One-Minute War rages on, writer Jeremy Adams gives you further insights into the alien speedster race that has invaded Central City, and how the Flash Family fights back!
The One Minute War Special left me far more excited about the direction of the arc, which should be a good indicator of how it will conclude over the next few weeks. Read Full Review

The Flash: One-Minute War Special #1 helps introduce the Fraction and gives fans more of a background as to who they are, what they want, and where they come from. Truthfully, the very first story was by far the best followed by the dinner party freeze frame and the return of a Willaimson villain. Overall, fans will discover that The Flash: One-Minute War Special #1 provides some much-needed pizzazz to an event that seemed to be missing a purpose and point. If you were on the fringe of this event, hopefully, The Flash: One-Minute War Special #1 will rejuvenate you a bit more. Lets just hope Adams rolls the success of this issue into the remaining Flash issues left in this event and possibly piggybacks off some of the flair and excitement these artists gave him and carries them into the series going forward.

The Flash: One Minute War Special adds new layers to an already blockbuster story. Inspired character choices from the Flash Family sit alongside an intriguing chapter adding context to the motivations of The Fraction Read Full Review
The Flash: One-Minute War Special #1 delivers a rich backstory for the Fraction and fills in the rest of the oversized issue with filler. If you're interested in reading a comic that provides context for the main villain, this is the one for you. If not, you can skip it. Read Full Review
Ultimately, there are some pieces of this moving tapestry that are worth eyeballing if you're a diehard Scarlet Speedster fan, have been digging Jeremy Adams' take on Wally West and family, and/or want to see more ancillary material to pad out the One Minute War, but at the end of the day, this does feel like material that isn't a necessity in understanding the grand picture of the latest Flash crossover.

Four unrelated stories of various levels of interest, wild art, and garish coloring don't make for much cohesion. Safe to skip this one, unless you're super-invested in all things One Minute War. Read Full Review
I usually don't care for the supplemental material in these small "events" because they are anthology style with too many different writers who just don't seem to understand what the main writer is going for. But since Jeremy Adams wrote all the stories it really feels like it belongs. This is one I don't mind buying for my collection.
This was a solid collection of supplemental stories. The first and third stories were good, the second was kind of average for me, and the fourth was solid. I appreciated the first story giving a bit of context for the villain of the main story, and it increased my interested a bit. The second story just didn't have anything notable for me, personally. The third was fun, particularly with the commentary from the aliens/robots as they looked through the building, along with Godspeed taking them out. As the for the final story, most of it was very average, but the final few pages brought it up a little bit for me. I don't know much about the two characters, but the chemistry wasn't bad and I wouldn't mind reading a little more on them. Overal more
