DC has posted their complete solicitations for July 2024, and here are all the ones relating to the Flash. That month sees the debut of Absolute Power, a crossover in which Amanda Waller and her cronies remove the superpowers from everyone on Earth. One or more Flashes appear in the promotional images for the story, though the Flash solo book doesn’t seem to be affected by what’s happening elsewhere in the line. And of note: DC comics are returning to Wednesday releases as of July.
You can see the solicitations in full at Adventures In Poor Taste.
