DC’s September 2023 Solicitations

DC has posted their full complement of solicitations for September 2023, and here are all the ones relating to the Flash. That month sees the relaunch of the new Flash solo title, which is written by Si Spurrier with art by Mike Deodato Jr, and continues to feature Wally West in the primary role. Wally also appears in the Titans ongoing and World’s Finest: Teen Titans limited series, so he’s kept busy these days.

His evolving understanding of his powers has opened Wally to new avenues of sci-fi adventure and attuned his senses to strange new ideas. Something whispers from the dark vibrations beyond the Speed Force, and as Wally experiments with creative new approaches to his powers he encounters new realms, mysterious allies, and mind-shattering terrors.

Batman is the World’s Greatest Detective. But can he also live up to his other accolade of world’s greatest dad?
Being a father to an endless supply of adopted, fostered, and biological children is its own challenge. But when you’re Batman, surrounded by a slew of super-powered (and not) teenagers, you’ll need every bit of your intellect to manage the brood. And Wayne Manor can barely contain the antics of Nightwing, Batgirl, Red Hood, Orphan, Spoiler, a few Robins, and newcomer Duke Thomas, a.k.a. the Signal, as they learn not only what it is to be heroes, but what it means to be a family.
In this continuing story, we are greeted by a few newcomers, including Catwoman, Superboy, Impulse, Wonder Girl, and other well-known faces from Gotham City and beyond in stories about dating, learning to drive, going on patrol, and simply what it means to be a teenage superhero.
Written by CRC Payne with inks by Starbite, this volume collects episodes 26-51 of WEBTOON’s Eisner-nominated series, optimized for a brand-new reading experience in print. Includes never-before-seen bonus content from the creators themselves!

    Would THE FLASH #1be a good starting point? Or do I need to start elsewhere? I haven’t read a Flash comic since Flashpoint and have no idea what’s happened. Wally is back..wow.

      I’m sure it’ll be a great starting point, though since it hasn’t started yet I don’t know how much you might need from the previous run. However, if you’d like to read Jeremy Adams’ Flash run (which also starred Wally), it began with Flash #768 and went to #800.

        Thank you for the response. I will start with #768. Also, if Wally is the true Flash then what is going on with Barry? Is he calling himself the Speedster Formally Known as Flash?

          No problem! I think they’re just going with a multiple Flashes concept, since Jay’s around and Barry is also still called the Flash. Barry was missing for a significant part of Adams’ run so that kept the confusion to a minimum, but now DC seems to have them active in different books and coming together when the story calls for it. Barry’s the main character in the Knight Terrors crossover, and he’ll be appearing with Hal in the GL book in October. He’s around, he’s just not doing as much.
