So in terms of DC Comics, Flash is only being outsold by Justice League (which he’s a part of), the 4 Batman titles, the 2 Superman titles and Green Lantern.
That’s pretty damn good! Of course now it also has Batman Inc and Earth 2 to compete with, but that’s still just another high profile Batman title and a Flash-centric team book.
Did they say that Earth2 was going to be Flash-centric? They’re starting with Jay and Alan, but I’m sure they are planning to add in more heroes.
btw, Kelson, that ‘updated’ link doesn’t seem to be working.
Link fixed.
I seem to recall that James Robinson said something in one of his interviews about Jay being the main viewpoint character for the book, at least in terms of who the audience can relate to.
