Support This Book!

I wish this had been the first issue. After a bold, radical first act, this title definitely deserves a second chance. Flash has always been my favorite, but too often he's written in a way that feels predictable. I'm excited to see someone finally take an ambitious approach. The first act wasn’t perfect, but it experimented—now I can see Spurrier hitting a stride more

Flash #14

Released: Oct 23, 2024

Wally, Linda, and the kids come together in the wake of the losses suffered to heal as a family and figure out their new abilities. While this family trip has a unique destination--Skartaris, in the center of the Earth--Wally's begun an evolution into a new form, and he's not ready to share that with the rest of the family!

Book of the week. Should have been the first issue.

The first act was an overextended piece of crap. Trying to Monday morning quarterback it to hype up the next run ain’t it. Most of the audience is gone. And si won’t be too far behind.

maybe its because I'm comparing to last few story arcs where it was incomprehensible mess. But this was a MASSIVE step up from the previous story because the language is easier to understand and no longer any cosmic meta physical babble. I think if people want to read the flash, this is the issue and just disregard the previous issues.

Mark Waid has forgotten that comics should be poetry. He is now debasing his craft to write brain-dead smash-em ups that cannibalize the Silver Age in the most uninteresting ways. This is truly the darkest era in DC Comics history.

There are some new things to look forward to and some solid DC writer, but yes currently you have to stay away from big books and big stories. Looking forward to the new writer on nightwing, and the launches of metamorpho and new gods.

I just don’t understand the appeal of this book. I gave it one more shot to see where it went after the Gala, but it’s just not for me. So many people that it seems I’m supposed to care about but we barely know them or even their name.

AFTER THE FALL! As the Brotherhood reels from the cataclysmic events of the Hellfire Gala, Genesis takes advantage of the chaos - and declares war! Two vast mutant armies clash, and Arakko's idols fall... but this is only the beginning of a conflict that will remake the Red Planet. And whatever happened to Isca the Unbeaten?

I don’t either and I’m a big fan of Ewing. There are selective good issues. But broadly speaking these characters aren’t developed.
