The real excitement (and anxiety) that challenged DC readers started on Free Comic Book Day in the month of May; before The New 52 was even a whisper, we were preparing for a super-sized shakeup hinging upon The Flash. Geoff Johns, the brainchild behind many of their stories, was spearheading the event and our only clue was that everything we knew would be forever changed.Read More...
Recommended Reading: Flashpoint
This Flashpoint title is the backbone of the event. Barry Allen wakes up and finds himself in a world where he's no longer The Flash. To make things worse Captain Cold is a hero and Bruce Wayne is no longer Batman. Follow this series to find out how our Scarlet Speedster uncovers the truth and tries to save reality as he knew it.
(Book Description) Not a dream, not an imaginary story, not an elseworld. This is Flash Fact: When Barry Allen wakes at his desk, he discovers the world has changed. Family is alive, loved ones are strangers, and close friends are different, gone or worse. It's a world on the brink of a cataclysmic war - but where are Earth's Greatest Heroes to stop it? It's a place where America's last hope is Cyborg, who hopes to gather the forces of The Outsider, The Secret 7, S!H!A!Z!A!M!, Citizen Cold and other new and familiar-yetaltered faces! It's a world that could be running out of time, if The Flash can't find the villain who altered the time line!
