This Week: 1980s Barry Allen in Convergence: The Flash #1

Convergence Flash 1It’s pre-Crisis week for DC’s Convergence event, and that includes a second Flash miniseries, this one focusing on early 1980s Barry Allen. Crave Online has a preview of the issue, revealing just how Barry ended up back in the 20th Century to be trapped under the dome, and what he’s been doing there.

Trapped in Gotham City, Barry Allen has nowhere to run. He fights on, seeking justice as well as a way to save the city, but he faces a Tangent Universe foe who thinks faster than even The Flash can run!

Written by Dan Abnett, art by Federico Dallocchio, colors by Veronica Gandini. Cover by Mike Allred. Variant cover by Chip Kidd.

Update: DC has posted the Convergence Confidential recap pages.

Also: The latest digital chapter of Flash: Season Zero (set in the TV continuity) came out today, continuing the King Shark/Suicide Squad story.

Probably Just the Wind

Zap2it has a preview of Monday’s new Flash: Season Zero chapter, which starts a new storyline featuring King Shark.

“When a peculiar string of homicides start to occur in Central City, Barry and Joe recruit the S.T.A.R. Labs team to help with the investigation … and what they find can’t possibly be true.”

Take a hint, guys: in this kind of story, it’s never just the wind.
