Light Week…then WonderCon
This week’s going to be a bit light because I’ll be on vacation. That’s not to say I won’t be around — I’ve pre-written and scheduled a couple of posts, some of the hotels will have wifi, and I’ve got a near-permanent link to the Internet now in the form of a G1 phone — but I’ll be spending a lot of time doing touristy things and hanging out with people instead of spending all day in front of a computer.
Then at the end of the week I’ll be attending WonderCon in San Francisco. Keep an eye on @SpeedForceOrg on Twitter and my Flickr photos, plus I’ll make occasional posts here. My con report(s) will go up at K-Squared Ramblings, with anything Flash-specific here.
You can read my write-up of last year’s WonderCon, as well as check out last year’s photos.

The Flash: Rebirth #2
Written by Geoff Johns
Art by Ethan Van Sciver
Covers by Ethan Van Sciver
What’s happened to the Speed Force? One of the world’s most powerful speedsters is dead, and Barry Allen must discover who – or what – is responsible! But the reborn Barry is a man haunted by a dark secret in his past. A secret that drives him to push far beyond his limits. A burden that, if he’s not careful, could send him right back into oblivion! Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Sciver’s reinvention of the Scarlet Speedster picks up the pace – we dare you to keep up!

Notes: Oh, joy, another dead speedster. Awesome cover, though. (I can’t believe I just wrote “awesome.” I feel like I’m in fifth grade.)
Team books and more after the cut. Continue reading
This Week (Feb 18): JLA, Tangent
This week we have the conclusion of Tangent: Superman’s Reign as well as a new issue of Justice League of America.
Justice League of America #30
Written by Dwayne McDuffie
Art and cover by Ed Benes
Featuring an “Origins and Omens” backup story! Can the entire combined might of the Justice League of Amercia and Dr. Light stand up to the cosmic entity known as Starbreaker as he continues consuming the sun? Could this be another Final Night for the DC Universe?

Written by Dan Jurgens
Art by Carlos Magno & Julio Ferreira
Cover by Dan Jurgens & Will Conrad
The dual universe-spanning epic concludes as the Justice League of America attempts to rally against Tangent Superman. It all comes down to one last-ditch effort as all hope remains with one lone individual. Who’s this being, and what’s their relationship to the Man of Telekinesis? And what will become of the Tangent Universe?

Other likely appearances: Tiny Titans and Trinity.
Quick Link: Screencaps From a Lost Flash Game
Nixgame has a set of screenshots from a canceled game based around the Flash. BottleRocket Entertainment was reportedly building the game for Brash Entertainment, and the project was canceled when Brash went out of business.
