2. The Flash
I love the Flash. Deeply. He’s my favorite DC Comics hero, and I’ve been buying Flash comics since I could buy comics.
I’m also a huge Joshua Williamson fan. After falling in love with Nailbiter, I got hooked on Birthright and Ghosted, and I’ll follow whatever he wants to do next. So, when I heard one of my favorite new writers was going to take on one of my favorite superheroes, I almost passed out with joy.
The resulting series is phenomenal. The opening arc introduces us to super-fast serial killer Godspeed and the mysterious science terrorist organization known as Black Hole. As the series runs (pun most DEFINITELY intended), it introduces new versions of old Flash villains like Captain Cold and the Shade, but also brings in new guys like the recently added Bloodwork. Plus, that Christmas issue with Kid Flash and Tar Pit is awesome.
Oh, and The Button, the crossover with Tom King’s Batman, is a really fascinating and interesting crossover that’s clearly setting stuff up for November’s Doomsday Clock. It’s pretty great. And speaking of…
