As seen in FOREVER EVIL, the Teen Titans have taken a fall through time itself! Along the way, they learn the secrets of Bart Allen’s past – but can they stop his evil future self? Find out in these stories from issues #24-30 and ANNUAL #2.
I knew it! The “all-murderous” Flash was a pretender. No way DC would make Barry a killer especially after the writers went to great lengths at the beginning of their run about Barry would always find another way.
I figured “not Barry Allen” was kind of implied by the “all-new” part.
Haha….true. I guess I mean my prediction that the “all murderous” Flash was the future Flash we are currently seeing seems to be true.
Any other else thinking this all seems too familiar…like they ripped off the Walter “Dark Flash” West story line?
Since I’m not reading, I’ll take your word for it.
That said and based on what Previews and ad blurbs here and elsewhere….
Oh yeah.
I’m waiting for Walter…I mean Berry’s(?) love interest to come into it and then he’ll get forced to leave her behind and end up in the hypertime or space or Multiversity never to be seen again.
*sigh* (Mega-sigh, actually, because I get neither Wally nor Walter now. Depressing.)
I went back to their site and watched the first two episodes of Flash. Enjoyed it. Especially liked Joe West…he’s a decent man and obviously cares about Barry.
Still having major problems with seeing a very young brunette as Barry. I think someone else said they thought of him better as a Jay Garrick and I think I’m going to take that recommendation.
