This feels like another “filler” episode – that’s not all bad, and in fact it’s quite entertaining. If you wanted another Flash uni, you sort of get one in this episode, and there is a little bit of super-speed going on here. But the big factor is time – and time is definitely the enemy in this episode. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!
SPOILERS AHEAD! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
The “One-Minute War” has been a very wild ride and one of the best arcs yet for Wally West and the Flash Family. The big question is – did Jeremy Adams and company stick the landing? The answer is an unequivocal yes! THIS is how to do an event comic – wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!
SPOILERS AHEAD!
DC has posted several preview pages from next week’s issue of The Flash, and you can see them at Adventures In Poor Taste. It’s the finale of the multi-part “One-Minute War” story arc, and the preview features Wally regrouping with Gold Beetle and her army of rescued heroes (you may remember them from Heroes In Crisis).

It’s the final moments of the One-Minute War! Cornered by the evil Admiral Vel, the Flash family is on the edge of defeat, but some surprising allies give the speedsters one last chance to change the outcome of the war once and for all!
The Supergirl series may have come to a conclusion, but the crossovers at least continue. In this episode, we are visited by none other than Nia Nal, aka Dreamer. You won’t see a lot of lightning speed in this episode, but you will see some character development for a few members of Team Flash. And, you’ll find a lot of “Inception”-like dream worlds that have [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] trapped. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!
SPOILERS AHEAD! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
“The One-Minute War” is nearing its conclusion – just one chapter to go after this issue. This arc has been fantastic from the beginning, and this issue may just be the best so far. The Flash Family (or what’s left of it) continues their battle against near-impossible odds, and the tension rises with every page. But, it’s that last page that should have the attention of every Wally West fan…for reasons we cannot discuss on this side of the jump. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

How can Harley stop herself from screwing up the timeline if her future self has already screwed it all up? First she discovered she totally stopped Superman and the Flash from ever existing, and now she’s finding out that she totally time-traveled right over Wonder Woman’s and Aquaman’s origins too! Harley has to stop Harley, or at least try to put the pieces of the DCU she’s broken back together again. With a time machine and a tough, scary, alternate-universe Harley at her side, maybe—just maybe—she can make things right again.
