Future Wally West on the Cover for Flash/Future’s End

DC has revealed the remaining Future’s End covers for September’s New 52 anniversary event. These will be motion covers, like last year’s 3D covers except showing a before-and-after pair of images. The pair for the Flash issue is…well, take a look!

Flash - Five Years Later - before: Barry Allen

Flash Five Years Later - after: Wally West

They’ve also confirmed that the issue will be written and drawn by the usual creative team. This should come as no surprise to those who’ve been following interviews with Robert Venditti and Van Jensen, as it fits right into the current time travel storyline.

So what do you think of the new look for Wally West?

DC UNIVERSE SELFIE variant cover

Time is getting closer as Future Flash reaches the point that broke his spirit – Wally West’s death – while Wally meets his uncle Daniel, the Reverse Flash, and Barry Allen is trapped in the middle!

Selfie variant? Um…okay…

Also of note: Grant Morrison’s “Multiversity” miniseries finally launches!

In collected editions, we have a date for the Forever Evil: Rogues Rebellion collection. It’s going straight to paperback rather than hardcover-first.

FOREVER EVIL: ROGUES REBELLION TP
Written by BRIAN BUCCELLATO

Cover by SCOTT HEPBURN
On sale SEPTEMBER 24 • 160 pg, FC • $16.99 US

The Rogues call no man boss, but the threat of the Crime Syndicate isn’t leaving them much choice! Will they fall in line, or refuse and risk certain death? How can the Rogues take on the Crime Syndicate together? Collected from the 6-issue miniseries, plus THE FLASH #23.1: ROGUES.

DC keeps going back and forth as to whether the Grodd one-shot is in this collection or Flash vol.4: Reverse. It would make a lot more sense to put it here.

Two more FLASH Trailers — including an extended 5-minute preview!

News on the Flash TV show is hitting fast and furious — appropriately enough. The CW has released TWO more trailers in addition to yesterday’s Arrow teaser, “Don’t Blink” — including the following extended five-minute trailer!

There’s also another short clip, “New Name.”

As reported earlier, the show will air Tuesdays at 8pm, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s old timeslot. Marvel’s show is moving to 9pm. If they weren’t completely separate networks I’d almost think they’d coordinated it.

So what do you think of the new, longer look at The Flash?

First Teaser for the Flash TV Show: Don’t Blink!

It’s here! Don’t Blink, the first teaser for the upcoming Flash TV series, ran during Arrow and is online now.

It’s clearly designed to appeal to Arrow’s viewers, but I’ve got to admit I like the attiude.

What do you think?

Blink and you’ll miss the Flash teaser in this Arrow Preview

Word is that a full trailer for The Flash will debut with tomorrow’s Arrow season finale. (Via Flash TV News)
