DC’s May 2026 Solicitations

DC has posted their full complement of solicitations for May 2026, and here is everything relating to the Flash. It’s a fairly quiet month for the Flashes, as DC is probably focused on the new series which just began and the ones about to launch; the company announced some new titles yesterday. But the Flash solo book and Absolute Flash continue, and there are team books which feature members of the Flash Family too.

You can see the solicitations in their entirety at Adventures In Poor Taste.
