Flash #13: Gorilla WarfareThe Flash vol.3: Gorilla Warfare collection was originally scheduled for a December 2013 release, but was dropped from the schedule a few weeks ago. DC has released an updated late 2013/early 2014 collections list today, including the new release date for the book.

THE FLASH VOL. 3: GORILLA WARFARE HC

Art by FRANCIS MANAPUL, MARCUS TO, MARCIO TAKARA and others
Cover by FRANCIS MANAPUL
RESOLICIT • On sale FEBRUARY 12 • 176 pg, FC, $24.99 US

When Grodd and his army descend on Central City, The Flash will have to contend with a threat that’s murderous, ruthless and without principle. The Flash will need the help of the Rogues if he wants to keep himself and Central City alive. This new hardcover collects THE FLASH #13-19.

It’s not clear why they delayed the book, though my off-the-cuff guess is that it might have something to do with putting more resources toward Forever Evil/Villains Month collections for the Christmas shopping season.

Ron Marz talks about hanging onto ideas for the right time, describing how a concept for an unused Hourman revamp in the early 1990s eventually inspired the story structure of the Velocity miniseries.
