Leave a reply

the_flash_16 The full list of DC’s February solicitations hasn’t been released yet, but a few have been posted as sneak peeks here and there, and one issue of The Flash is among them. The Rogues storyline continues that month, and here’s a look at Mirror Master on the cover.

Director Rick Famuyiwa Exits The Flash Movie

THR reports that director Rick Famuyiwa has left the Flash movie over creative differences. Famuyiwa joined the production in June, replacing previous director Seth Grahame-Smith.

The Flash solo film stars Ezra Miller as Barry Allen and Kiersey Clemons as “the female lead” (widely expected to be Iris West), and is set in the DC cinematic universe established by Batman v. Superman. It’s still on the schedule for March 2018, but losing its director again at this stage may set that back.

I’ve actually lost count of how many directors have been attached to this movie over the years.

Do you think The Flash will be able to stay on schedule, or will Barry Allen’s solo movie be late?

And who would you like to step in as director?

fls_cv14 Comics Alliance has posted solicitations and covers for three DC issues in January, and one of them happens to be The Flash.

THE FLASH #14

Written by JOSHUA WILLIAMSON—Art and cover by CARMINE DI GIANDOMENICO—Variant cover by DAVE JOHNSON
“ROGUES RELOADED” part one! Central City is quiet…a little too quiet. Which means one thing: the Rogues are up to something, and only The Flash can stop them! But first Barry Allen needs to track down his classic cadre of villains, who’ve vanished in advance of their greatest plan ever. Plus, artist extraordinaire Carmine Di Giadomenico returns!

You may notice that Captain Cold is looking a lot more like he did before the New 52 began, so this may be a new change as part of Rebirth. Regardless, it’ll be good to see Williamson tackle the Rogues in a full story arc. I’m pretty excited!
