The Official Flash thread

[flash13]

I just picked up Wonderland by Geoff Johns, good stuff.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, Emergency Stop comes first. I'm just glad they finally reprinted those. "The Human Race" is way too good a story to never be collected, plus it fills that annoying gap in the middle of Waid's run. Now, if only they would collect the Walter West issues...

 

[Alex Summers]

I have a feeling Walter West will never be seen again.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

In the current comics? Oh yeah, he's gone for good. But I'd really like to just see them collect his story from Waid's run. It was a really good story.

What else has Manapul done? The art in issue 5 (and the rest of this series) is gorgeous.

 

[Octoberist]

His art is beautiful.

I can't believe that some people objected to his art style. I swear, some people don't have imaginations, especially when it's something new. Here, it's new, it works, and it's breathtaking.

He did Superboy's story in Adventure Comics before the Legion took over that series and before that he did Legion of Super Heroes with Shooter.

I do have to agree Manapul is knocking it out of the park on this series. Loved the action scenes with the tornado.

 

[Paste Pot Pete]

Manapul's work blows me away. I had never seen his art before; when the preview for Flash #1 showed up online, it was Manapul's work that made Flash a must-get book for me.

He and Dustin Nyugen are my two favorite artists working today; I'm really looking forward to meeting both of them at NYCC.

The story is not knocking my socks off but the art is amazing

 

[Jinnobi]

The story is ok. The art is amazing. I know next to nothing about the Flash, but it has kept my attention.

 

[Octoberist]

My only issue with the series is that the progression of the story has been kinda slow. But overall, they're quick and fun reads with beautfiul art.

 

[Comics N' Toons]

Has anyone read this anthology? Can you tell me about it?

The Greatest Flash Stories Ever Told from 1992

 

[Young Superman]

I'd like to see a year one / secret origin style mini-series about Barry Allen.

Give Johns some time!

 

[JTStarkiller]

Just reading up on the DC website. Nice to see Manapul will be back on issue 9. That's great news. Hopefully it will extend on past that. Love his artwork.

I'd like to see a year one / secret origin style mini-series about Barry Allen.

I think a Flash: Secret Origins actually is happening, I remember it being proposed a while ago.

A Flash Omnibus by Geoff Johns has shown up on Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Flash-Omnibus-Geoff-Johns-Vol/dp/1401230687/ref=lh_ni_t_

No info, but it pretty much has to be Wally's series. I don't see how they'd be enough of Barry's series for an Omnibus treatment by May (assuming May is an accurate date).

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Meh, I already have all of those trades. Give me an omnibus of Waid's run, which still has yet to be fully collected.

I am getting this, I hope it has a nice cover!

A Mark Waid omnibus would be

He had the best run on the Flash comic book

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I agree wholeheartedly.

 

[storyteller]

I miss Wally and Bart.........sigh

Why can't they pull a Batman and give these two the real Flash series while Barry goes off plays godfather.

 

[CConn]

Or just, y'know, give them series of their own.

 

[MadVillainy]

I agree with storyteller

Also will the Johns Omnibus have the "Blitz" storyline?
