DC’s June solicitations are rolling out. We’ve already seen the design for the Flash’s new costume post-Convergence, and now we see Professor Zoom (apparently separate from the new Reverse-Flash?) and his new look.
And the Flash’s costume, but not the Flash…

Professor Zoom is back, and he’s not alone! Who’s along for the ride to kill the fastest man alive? Find out here!
And, for the first time ever, Flash: Season Zero uses a cover that isn’t a repurposed publicity poster from the TV show.

Armed with information from Oliver Queen about the Suicide Squad, The Flash and the S.T.A.R. Labs team decide to break into A.R.G.U.S.!
I certainly hope they’re separate.
Yuck, yuck, yuck. I haven’t read The Flash since Buccellato left, and I’m glad I made that decision. Aside from the whole Wally West controversy, I just can’t get past the artwork. I think Brett Booth is severely overrated. His stuff just does not look good. And it also feels like the title is following Green Arrow’s trend of adjusting the comics to better match the TV show. I’m not sure that’s a good thing.
I was planning on dropping the Flash and trade-waiting due to my dislike of the current storyline, Booth’s art, and the coming price increase. And when I heard Prof Zoom was coming I was sure I would drop it. But that cover is awesome and makes me rethink my decisions. Love Zoom’s design.
I see that there’s a spinning villain with Eobard. Or he seems to be spinning, at any rate.
Flash #41 is looking great!
