DC’s April 2025 Solicitations

DC has posted their full complement of solicitations for April 2025, and here are all the ones relating to the Flash. It’s a heavy Superman month for DC, and thus somewhat lighter on Flash content. But the second issue of Absolute Flash is out, and the Si Spurrier solo title continues, which will lead into a new event called “Bad Moon Rising”.

You can see the solicitations in full at Adventures In Poor Taste.

On one side: Wally West. And Wally West. And Wally West. Using his newfound powerset gained after the Justice League’s battle with Darkseid, he’s split himself hundreds of times, into an army of TEMPS, as Wally keeps going while spreading himself thinner and thinner.
On the other side: Eclipso, reborn in a terrifying new form. After razing Skartaris, he’s built a new army, and taken control of the Moon, in his quest to replace Darkseid as the ultimate expression of existential evil. But, Eclipso isn’t the only one attempting the fill the void left by Darkseid’s death, as the Temp Wally on the Watchtower with the Justice League is fast learning…
It’s a rumble over all sides of the Moon, as the ALL IN era of the Fastest Man Alive enters its first event: Bad Moon Rising!
