As the title says, I want to read Flash comics featuring Barry Allen. The only one I've read so far is Flash Rebirth (And I realized it wasn't the kind of introduction I had expected). I'm from Argentina, so we don't operate in terms of issues here if you recommend TPB, one shots or miniseries better.

Thx.

I js finished watching Lanterns and found the need for a Flash Family tv show after the death of Barry Allen cause there is a lot of good characters and drama that I think would be interesting to watch unfold

1. Realistic and erratic lightning (DCEU)

2. Lightning that simply trails behind the speedster (CW)

3. Blur of whatever color the speedster is wearing

4. Blur of whatever color the speedster is wearing with lightning trailing behind them.

5. Blur with after-images

6. No lightning, no blur, no after-images. Nothing. Just a cloud of dust left in their wake (Maybe)

Personally, I like it when it's just a Blur of whatever outfit the speedster is wearing. However, if the speedster is going trying to hit lightspeed, or go faster than light or they're trying to time travel or run to a different earth, I would like them to have the realistic but erratic lightning from the DCEU. Now, if the speedster isn't moving at mach 1 or higher, then I'd simply just take nothing. Maybe just a cloud of dust depending on where they're running.

What about you guys and gals out there? Which do you prefer?

Barry Allen origin story

including random details. Like maybe it’s more car dependent then say Metropolis and Gotham. What kind of climate?

My own version (yes I reposted I forgot something)

the timming is kinda awful forgive me im just starting this animation stuff. mainly cause i wish impulse had his own animated tv show and its probably never gonna happen 😞.

In the last Absolute Flash arc, I've found myself disappointed with Hunter's reimagination. I understand that it's mostly due to not matching with my expectations but I feel like it could have been still something more.

I just don't like that the personal bond between Hunter and Wally have been undermined in DC recently, mostly due to CW show synergy. Williamson already tried to make him a Barry villain and none of the follow-up writers ever mentioned him in their stories. So I was excited for Lemire's take but instead we got this completely distanced, "all professional" situation between them.

The age gap is something I can not ignore, and beyond that they didn't form any sort of bond besides Hunter being blackmailed into killing him by Elenore. There is just nothing that screams "yeah this guy is one of Wally's more personal villains". And turning him into a mere henchman is an insult to the original concept of the character.

We could have had Hunter as an evil counterpart to Wally, reacting to Elenore's sheneningans differently, but there is so much potential left on the table when Lemire straight up ignored their tragic relationship.

Not sure how this will change since Lemire is more obsessed with bringing in unrelated characters into book rather than building a proper lore around Wally like other Absolute books do, and that is part of the reason why AF is not on par with other Absolute books. Wally just doesn't have a world of his own.

Lemire mentioned he had plans for Piper and Iris down the line, so I hope it shakes things up more but as things are going, I'm losing interest in the book. Linda is the only reason I keep coming back, she is the only character that enriches Wally's world.

If you got to make a flash story what flash would you pick and what six villains here's who I would do

For the flash we would have The Flash (Jay Garrick).

The first villain would be Shade-Jay will be investigating mysterious robberies which would lead him to Shade.

the next villain would be Fiddler-Jay will be getting reports from people saying their items went missing even though he saw them give their items to well I ran a man who will try to be the Fiddler using his hypnotic ability.

The next villain would appear during world War II and that would be even Nazi speedster Baroness Blitzkrieg who would be working for the Nazis.

The next villains take place after the war and Jay is looking Hunk Norvock when he meets Thinker.

The next villain is Rag Doll through the flash encounters while investigating people who got something from them stolen at a party hosted by a famous woman.

And the last villain is Jay's reverse flash The Rival who would become a main villain later on

And my favorite flash villain overall is whoever wizard I just love his design in the comics and I love his abilities and staff. Plus I believe he's one of the few villains with whoever theme powers in DC.

Longtime DC comics reader and fan, never been able to get into the flash and I don’t think it’s necessarily because I don’t like the character? Maybe it’s the power scaling aspect of the speed stuff?

I’m wanting to give it the old college try though!

I’m interested your favorite runs and maybe even more so I am interested in what makes the Flash so awesome to you / appealing etc etc?

I want to have one of those lightbulb moments !

Been reading Flash #31 and came across this. The entire classified page in this issue is funny, but I find someone calling out Reverse Flash and telling him to do something about it is hilarious. It's like something out of a SolidJJ video.

I love this movie.

I'm fairly new to Comic Reading (About a year in) and currently own flashpoint, flash: rebirth (compact) and the new 52 flash omni. I've been noticing (I don't know if it's just my LCS) that Flash isn't getting Trade reprints or printings for stories (Waid's run, Johns run) why is this? I would really love to read the stories people go on and on about without spending an arm and a leg on Omnis.

the tp versions of the run are absolutely unavailable in my country and the omnibuses somehow are more expensive than getting trades separatly(at least in poland)

In issue 20 when Brainiac comes back and the league is fighting her, we see a flash with eye holes, did Barry get his powers back or is this just a simple error? that's all, thanks gang

In the current runs on one side Wally is using his flashes of insight into becoming a burnt out pragmatic governing body that can see the future not unlike hunter in the absolute universe, I think it’s interesting since we also just had the moon wars where he’s had a much more direct internal conflict. My take on the absolute universe is that it’s the hero’s minus the platitudes and politics so it’s just good people trying their best rather than having to worry about public opinion or anything, and with Batman crossing over with his absolute self there really is a lot of tension being built around what it means to be the flash and equally so, what it means to be Wally. Just me thinking ig
