That’s one of Francis’ best Flash covers yet. I’m looking forward to seeing how they handle Glider.
Cool cover. And that’s the best pic of the new Kid Flash I’ve seen yet. Not wild about the “T”s on the shoulders but it’s still cool.
Cool Flash cover, but why does it make me feel that Glider’s trying to seduce Barry or something?
She does look like a succubus in that.
Although…she did try to put the moves on Wally a long way back right before there was an explosion that put he kabosh on any romance, so that could be sort of retro canon.
Gee, I hope she’s not going to be like Catwoman. Barry already has a love triangle going on, does he really need to shoot for a square?
Well to be fair, Iris is currently trapped in the speed force. Not sure how she could “romance” Barry from there. Though she may escape by issue #12, who knows.
Always room for more ladies in Flash’s world. 😀 😉
Who knew Barry was such a player? XD
Fiona Webb figured it out years ago. 😀
All I could think was that Captain Cold was going to be pissed.
You mean the Captain might give their romance the cold shoulder and force Barry to run (from romance)? 😛
(Yes, I’m incorrigible. Really miss the old Rogue puns.)
It wouldn’t be the first time.
Gorilla Grodd and Wally West are going to be in Young Justice #19. We like that guy, right?
We like Wally West although we are wondering if Wally will still be KF, Flash, or the rumor in the book series.
Maybe Grodd…not so much.
But I’d buy it for Wally anyway.
At least until he gets booted out of there too.
I really like that Glider cover. I’m still “wait and see” about the new Glider, but as always the art is beautiful.
