The Flash #244 - Comic Review - Shazap.com

Welcome back zappers, Im Devin Curry with http://Shazap.com. Your online video source for comic book news and reviews. Follow me on Twitter at http://twitter.com/devincurry. You know the Flash is such a tough character because its so hard to present him with a realistic threat. His ability to move as fast as he does means that he should be able to stop the crime, capture the bad guy, ad save all the bystanders before the villain can even blink. Geoff Johns has been the only writer in recent history to be able to do it well and this is not a Geoff Johns book. Alan Burnett does at least have the sense to make the challenge more about the powers themselves than the bad guys but the story is a little tired. The aging thing through the speed force. They dealt with it with Bart when he was sent back from the future, they just finished dealing with it for Wallys kids and now Wallys aging again. Theyve cured it before and now theyll cure it again. I was really hoping for a good Flash story because I love the character. Ill try the next issue just to give it a real chance but Im not expecting much. Distributed by Tubemogul.

I know it will be, but I just hate having to wait that long. Geoff Johns is great and I'm glad he's coming back to the Flash

Flash will be good again when Johns brings back Barry Allen in the Rebirth series next year. I'm waiting for that because it seems like everything in the Flash comics now is just filler until we get there.
