Review

I have to admit, this is the first Flash comic I have read so far. I absolutely love it, the suspense and anticipation, you would never expect the big reveal. With Barry Allen and Wally west racing to save time, who knows what will happen? All I know is time is running out.

The author did an amazing job designing the comics and writing out the story. I can not wait to read more of his work.
