Wallace West and Avery Ho: the young speedsters have been Teen Titans, Justice Leaguers, and above all, members of the Flash Family. As they become aware of mysterious changes happening to the Speed Force, they race to Keystone City, where they encounter old friends, new threats, and a chance to forge their own paths. Spinning out of the pages of The Flash, the team of Jarrett Williams (Super Pro K.O., Rick & Morty) and Daniele Di Nicuolo (Nightwing, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers), bring the next generation of Speedsters into the Dawn of DC!
Speed Force #1 is a non-stop burst of energy. From the opening page, the comic uses the young heroes to drive the comic forward, never looking back. It’s a comic that is delightfully fun to read, positive, and always engaging. Read Full Review
Exciting, kinetic art by Daniele Di Nicuolo combines nicely with two likable lead characters to provide a solid foundation, and the plot is fun even if it doesn't have a huge hook so far. I'm just glad to see these two getting to have solo adventures! Read Full Review
Overall, Speed Force shows great promise. Read Full Review
While the first issue introduces a good story and makes the characters act in a way that's more relatable to a younger audience, it's connection to the Flash weakens it slightly. There's room for improvement when it comes to this series, but it'll potentially be cast aside and more dependent on the main hero than the sidekicks. Read Full Review
Speed Force #1 is a mixed bag. Williams creates endearing chemistry between Wallace and Avery, and the villain's actions are a strong hook to a dastardly plan, but the plot tries to do too much without establishing clear connections, and the "Hello, Fellow Kids" dialog and social media references is downright painful.

A disappointing Flash side-title. Read Full Review
I don't hate this like a lot of others seemed to. It's far from my favorite comic I've ever read, but I enjoyed the art a good amount and I thought the story was fairly solid. Maybe it's because I already like manga/anime art, but I think Nicole's art was my favorite part of this. I will say that I hope the amount of slang is toned down a bit in the future.
I like the lead characters and the central story while vague so far does shape up to hook you. My issue is the manga style art. Not a fan of it at all. Avery looks just horrible in this. Some of the action is rather non
-sensical.
Feels like a badly assembled episode of the 2000s Teen Titans cartoon.
Probably the worst thing I read this year.
