“Rogues Reign Conclusion” – Review of THE FLASH #86

Captain, er, “King” Cold has truly gone over the edge. He’s frozen even his one-time fellow Rogues, even frozen his own sister. All Len Snart can think about right now is defeating the Flash. He wants to be…not a “loser” again. And, as we learned last issue, he received a lot more than just a bunch of tech from the Apex Predator, Lex Luthor. Barry has no real control over the Speed Force right now, so what hope does he have against Cold? How will “Rogues Reign” end? Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“Rogues Reign” Part Two – Review of THE FLASH #83

How much worse could it get? Lex Luthor’s plan is in full effect and “the end of the world(s) as we know it” (with apologies to R.E.M.) is just a few days away. Len Snart is now “King” Cold and in charge of Central City. His former partners now have their own chunks of real estate to rule over, but that doesn’t seem to bother the King.  The Speed Force is…dead? Wallace and Avery can’t access it right now, and Barry has a dampening collar on so…

Oh, forgot. Flash is now the prisoner of King Cold at the newly renamed Ice Heights. He’s chained to the wall so that Snart can constantly torture him with the fact that he’s won. Is there any hope left? Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“License to Elongate” Review of S6 E6 of THE FLASH

Last week, we saw a fantastic spotlight show for Cisco Ramon. This week shifts the focus to Ralph Dibny, showcasing him at his very best. This episode pays homage – with a wink and a nod – to all things 007, and they pull it off well. Barry and Ralph go on an adventure together that you may want to see more than once, if only to catch all the Bond references. Still, there is a theme that goes beyond 007 – it’s embracing who you really are. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“Kiss Kiss Breach Breach” Review of S6 E5 of THE FLASH

Team Flash now knows what the Crisis on Infinite Earths holds for Barry Allen. They have seen Bloodwork (aka Dr. Ramsey Rosso) in action. They have even met Harrison Nash Wells…but they don’t know what he is really up to, not yet. What we do know is that this episode is all about faith and trust. Is it well founded, or misplaced…or both? Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!
