Here’s the thirty-second teaser for next week’s episode of The Flash, titled “The Trap”. As expected, it’s quite spoilery (and you might want to watch this week’s episode first).
Flashfans.org has some official stills from upcoming episode “Grodd Lives”. Strangely, there’s no Grodd in them. That episode will air on May 5th.
I’m definitely looking forward to next week’s episode, which looks pretty intense. How about you guys?
DC Comics’ July 2015 solicitations are rolling out:
THE FLASH #42
Written by ROBERT VENDITTI and VAN JENSEN
Art and cover by BRETT BOOTH and NORM RAPMUND
TEEN TITANS GO! Variant cover by JORGE CORONA
On sale JULY 22 • 32 pg, FC, $3.99 US • RATED T
Things go from bad to crazy bad when Barry is forced to deal with both Professor Zoom and his father’s unexpected escape from prison!
Quick note: ComiXology is running a Convergence Week 3 sale featuring DC comics from the 1980s. If you scroll way down to the end, you’ll find The Flash #340-350, featuring the famous (or is it infamous) “Trial of the Flash” story that wrapped up the pre-Crisis series starring Barry Allen.
After releasing two issues a week for several months, DC hasn’t added any new Flash issues to their digital backlist since the big Flash 500 sale in March. Maybe we’ll see more after Convergence?
It’s pre-Crisis week for DC’s Convergence event, and that includes a second Flash miniseries, this one focusing on early 1980s Barry Allen. Crave Online has a preview of the issue, revealing just how Barry ended up back in the 20th Century to be trapped under the dome, and what he’s been doing there.
Trapped in Gotham City, Barry Allen has nowhere to run. He fights on, seeking justice as well as a way to save the city, but he faces a Tangent Universe foe who thinks faster than even The Flash can run!
Written by Dan Abnett, art by Federico Dallocchio, colors by Veronica Gandini. Cover by Mike Allred. Variant cover by Chip Kidd.
Update: DC has posted the Convergence Confidential recap pages.
Also: The latest digital chapter of Flash: Season Zero (set in the TV continuity) came out today, continuing the King Shark/Suicide Squad story.
HitFix has the covers and details for several DC Comics annuals coming in July, including….
THE FLASH ANNUAL #4
Written by ROBERT VENDITTI and VAN JENSEN
Art by BONG DAVO and NORM RAPMUND
Cover by BRETT BOOTH and NORM RAPMUND
On sale JULY 29 • 48 pg, FC, $4.99 US • RATED T
Meet the new hunting party gathered by Professor Zoom – and see how The Flash’s nemesis recruited each of these deadly players to plague the life of Barry Allen.
Hmm, lower left might be an updated Folded Man or Shadow Thief. The cloak reminds me of New 52 Shazam, so maybe a related character. The woman with the headdress doesn’t ring any bells, but the one with the visor reminds me a bit of one of the future Cobalt Blues. And someone sure seems to be spinning a lot.
We’ve already seen some clips and snippets from next week’s Flash episode, titled “Who Is Harrison Wells?”, but this promo is a full minute long. There are spoilers, obviously.
