Flash writer Joshua Williamson has posted a new promotional image for the next arc on the book, which is titled “Death Of The Speed Force”. It’s an ominous hint at the story which ties into DC’s ongoing “Year Of The Villain” arc, in which the villains in the DCU — including the Rogues — get upgrades through Lex Luthor. The story will begin in August with Flash #76.
DC has posted the official preview pages for next week’s Flash #75, and you can see them at Newsarama. It’s the final part of the “Flash: Year One” arc, in which Barry must face two versions of the Turtle to save himself and Central City, and the issue will also tie into the current “Year Of The Villain” story. Check out the preview at the link!
