So far in Year One of THE FLASH, we’ve seen a lot of emotional content to go with the action sequences. In this chapter five, the balance tilts strongly to action as we see Barry Allen going toe to toe with the Turtle…the one from the future!!! Can future Barry help this young Flash defeat the Turtle? Where does Iris fit in all of this? And, will we ever see the famous Scarlet Speedster costume we all know and love? We get some answers here…and if you wanna know more, just follow us after the jump!
SPOILERS AHEAD!
Barry continues to discover the extent of his powers. Iris and Barry continue to discover…each other. The Turtle continues to rant while in Iron Heights.

There are so many questions in the Flash mythos that are being answered in fresh, new ways…while staying true to the core elements of the first hero of the Silver Age. Joshua Williamson and Howard Porter are giving us a FLASH story for the ages. Grab your copies, bag and board ’em, because these are going to be true collector’s items in the future. Chapter Three of FLASH: YEAR ONE is no exception – a fantastic story that furthers Barry Allen’s journey into the hero we know today. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

I’ve held off for the most part on HEROES IN CRISIS, waiting for the ending to somehow turn things around for my opinion. After all, Tom King is a great writer and I usually am a fan of his work. I do think this book was well intentioned when it comes to depicting mental health issues…even though it missed the mark significantly. But, now that the series is over it’s time to finally talk about what went very, very wrong about HEROES IN CRISIS…a book that hopefully will be retconned out of continuity at some point in the near future.

SPOILERS AHEAD for HEROES IN CRISIS. You have been warned!
Joshua Williamson and Howard Porter have done their homework, and it shows here. There is SO much great Flash mythos packed into one issue that I am dumbfounded as to how they did it while keeping such a smooth story arc going. I’ll try to list as many of the nods to history as I can, but even still you may find some extra pieces of Flash history as you read it for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th time…and it WILL be worth the time.
