Why is it that the flash always has to "run faster than he ever has before". I'm sure there is something else you can make the character do. Be creative, it's getting really old.

A very promising start

This is a pretty cool concept, and there are some interesting plot points, but it feels really rushed to the point where the twists aren't surprising because they are quickly set up and revealed. Would have been incredible if each decade was a volume instead of an issue though.

There was a Watchmen reference

Nothing really happened, but the little that did was fairly enjoyable.

It's a shame DC didn't use their chance with Doomsday Clock to retcon events of Heroes in Crisis, and instead continue to release comics like this one, which don't add much to the mythos nor helps the character to, well, move orward. Yes, he's a hero, yes, he misses his family, and yes, he apparently went against all the character development he received throughout the years and has become a murderer, which now, other than being mentioned, serves no purpose, since Wally is just fully reformed and a heroic as always. Which makes you wonder who the hell thought butchering and dehumanizing him in Heroes in Crisis was a half decent idea. Okham's razor - if it sucks, cut it out, retcon it, forget about it forever.

In a way, Flash Forward reminds me of this entire Dark Multiverse one offs, all telling alternate versions of famous DC comics, but not contributing to anything in any meaningful way. They are jusst that - diposable one offs. And I have a feeling this series isn't much better, with all the different worlds being there for no real reason, than to show Wally in a positive, heroic light, and help him get his family back.

You're not missing much if you don't follow this run. It's decent, some of it scenes can be enjoyable, but overall, I don't think it's something extraordinary and meaningful. Albeit seeing Linda and Wally together is always nice. more
