DC’s August 2023 Solicitations

DC has posted their full complement of solicitations for August 2023, and here are all the ones relating to the Flash. Things are sparse that month, since the Knight Terrors event is occupying much of the lineup and the Flash isn’t playing a major role in it. But there is a Flash tie-in issue, and an unrelated swimsuit edition which looks fun. The relaunched Flash solo book is set to begin in September, so look for that solicit next month.

You can see the solicitations in full at Adventures In Poor Taste.
