“The Good, The Bad and the (Un)Lucky – Review of S9E6 of THE FLASH

Every season it seems, there is at least one episode where Barry and Iris are sent off-screen and the focus is on at least one of the FLASH ensemble cast. This week we center on Cecile and Iris…and a returning former baddie turned, well, unlucky. In spite of a potential plot hole or two, this was still an entertaining episode. And, it widens the mystery over a key member of Team Flash. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

Flash Book To Be Relaunched With New Creative Team

As part of the current “Dawn of DC” era, Jeremy Adams’ Flash title will end at #800 and be relaunched with new creative team Si Spurrier and Mike Deodato Jr. The new series will be renumbered and have a distinctly horror-themed bent, and begins in September. Here’s the descriptive blurb from DC:

Wally West has never been quicker, more fulfilled, more heroic. His loving family is around him. And yet something is off. Very off. His evolving understanding of his powers has opened Wally to new avenues of sci-fi adventure, and attuned his senses to strange new ideas. Something whispers from the dark vibrations beyond the Speed Force, and as Wally experiments with creative new approaches to his powers he encounters new realms, mysterious allies and mind-shattering terrors. Starting with a prelude in the soon-to-be-legendary The Flash #800, the chronicles of the Fastest Man Alive take an action-packed turn towards cosmic horror.

But the news also comes with the announcement of Flash #800, which will include a smorgasbord of past Flash writers and artists such as Adams, Mark Waid, Geoff Johns, Scott Kolins, Carmine Di Giandomenico, and more. As noted above, it will be the final issue of the current series and will lead into the new one. It’ll likely be out in June, but the new series won’t relaunch until September.
