Central City police want to arrest the Flash for the bombing of the police station but the Scarlett Speedster knows he can't take the time to talk with them as he knows he needs to stop Professor Zoom and his group of villains.
Fast and incredible action can be found on every page of this comic book issue. Zoom has been trying to build the Flash as a threat to Central City so that if he does beat our hero, he isn't revered in his death. This is no easy task and really isn't something he can push any longer as the fight is on. Zoom has his super-powered villain group that is assisting, outside of Magali who he has since imprisoned along with Henry Allen, the Flash's father. Henry was brought on to build a device that steals meta-human powers. If he built a device that could steal the Flash's powers, Professor Zoom would let Barry Allen live. Little does Henry know who the Flash truly is.
Caught up yet? I know, there's a lot going on in this issue. This has been a fun story line. Professor Zoom is such an interesting character as everyone thinks he's a speedster but he's really controlling time. It's going to be interesting to see how the Flash is going to do against Zoom. Also, what will Zoom do after what happened to his villainous group?
I'm of the understanding that the art portion of the Flash team will be leaving the title soon. That's unfortunate as I feel this is one of the best teams around. I'm not overly fond of the tweaks made to the Flash's costume, but everything else is amazing. The flow of each page, detail in the right places and I don't know where you'll find colors used much better. Wherever Booth, Rapmund and Dalhouse go, I'm sure I'll be hopping onto that title as well. If what I've heard is true, seeing this team working on underwater adventures could be some of the most incredible visuals of 2016.
As far as the writing team, I have no news as to whether staying or going. Again, I can see myself checking out whatever Venditti and Jensen write. It has been an extraordinary pleasure to read from this super team of writers and artists.
