DC Retroactive The Flash The 90s #1


The reprint tale was excellent. A reunion of speedsters lead Max Mercury to beleive that Wally West is being hunted by the 'Black Flash,' a sort of Grim Reaper of the Speed Force. The finale is shocking!

But, it’s the 'lost tale' that I didn’t really like. West finds himself on a desert oasis where a mysterious entity is threatening a nomadic tribe. West has some strange out of body experiences that make for a very complicated read. It also made that story one that I didn’t like.

The art for both books is great. It’s totally Brian Augustyn, with a slightly cartoonish slant that I just adored. And it’s very 1990s!

Enjoy the entire book for the art, but read just the reprint.

Rating: 5 out of 10 stars.
