Out today in comic stores, or next Tuesday in book stores, it’s the second collection of the post-Rebirth Flash series, bridging Brightest Day and Flashpoint.

Full Run
This completes the collection of Geoff Johns’ return to the Flash and re-introduction of Barry Allen. Here’s the full list of Rebirth-era Flash collections by Geoff Johns:
- Flash: Rebirth
- Blackest Night (not really a Flash collection, but a lot of people describe the main story as being a Hal/Barry story)
- Blackest Night: The Black Lantern Corps. Vol.2 (Including Blackest Night: The Flash)
- Flash: The Dastardly Death of the Rogues
- Flash: The Road to Flashpoint
- Flashpoint
That still leaves one more collection of Flash material from this era: World of Flashpoint Featuring the Flash, announced just this Monday and arriving in March, containing stories by Scott Kolins, Sterling Gates and others.
Edit: I forgot to include Captain Atom #3, which features the Flash as a guest star, and is also out today.
Captain Atom #3
Written by J.T. KRUL; Art by FREDDIE WILLIAMS II; Cover by STANLEY “ARTGERM” LAU
Captain Atom is taking his powers to new heights – saving people all across the world in the blink of an eye. But he’s not the only one who can move at super speed. Enter: The Flash! And when their paths cross, don’t expect them to share the secret hero’s handshake – because Captain Atom may be a bigger threat than any villain.
