Wally is more than lost in his thoughts. He’s lost in a strange corner of the Speed Force that had never been explored until now – and it threatens to pull Wally away from everything and everyone he loves. Meanwhile, Irey is meeting with another speedster to investigate – what dangers await our youngest super-speed hero? Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“Memories” Review of JAY GARRICK: THE FLASH #3

This is one of those rare series where EVERYTHING is being done right! The “Dawn of DC” has brought several new characters into view, including Judy Garrick – that’s a risky thing to do, especially when retconning them into the stories of classic Golden Age characters. But here, it’s working, and I’ve already become a fan of The Boom. This issue gives us some surprises, along with excellent character development for Judy. That leaves the mysterious Doctor Elemental – who is he, what powers does he have, and what’s his beef with Judy? Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“Angles” Review of THE FLASH #3

This volume of THE FLASH is not for the faint of heart. It’s a mixture of horror with psychedelic visions – layers of reality that keep peeling back for Wally West to find. Only, these layers of reality are not so inviting. Wally is gaining new powers but losing touch with reality at the same time. Max Mercury and Bart Allen show up in this issue…and that’s a great thing for a lot of fans. But, what happens to them in this trippy world? Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“The Coming Dread” Review of JAY GARRICK: THE FLASH #2

I keep saying this – I’m a big fan of Jay Garrick and have been for decades. Getting to see him as the lead in his own series for the first time since 1949 is a special treat. This series gives us a new speedster in Judy Garrick, but still maintains that classic Flash vibe that long-time fans still love and appreciate. Throw in a HUGE mystery that may have implications for all of the DCU and you’ve got a great story! Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“Double Juggle” Review of SPEED FORCE #1

It is SO good to see DC give the Flash Family more titles – it’s been a long time coming, and now we have not one, not two, but THREE titles directly tied to our favorite speedsters (and that’s without counting all the super-group titles). In this series, we see Wallace West and Avery Ho getting some well-deserved spotlight. There are cameos a plenty is this inaugural issue. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!
