I remember when Flash showed up in an episode or two of Smallville. They really under-utilized him, to the point that I can’t even remember what the kid looked like who played him.
Yep, that was the 4th Flash, a kid from the future, son of Barry Allen, Bart Allen, who goes by the name of Impulse. Definitely under-utilized, then again, there’s a reason why The Flash has his own show (although Impulse hasn’t appeared yet). 😂
It’s definitely a nice introduction if you don’t mind visiting the older era comics. 😁 They have one of the modern Flash (Barry Allen) origin stories in it as well.
I actually really like Flash. Decades ago he was probably my favorite. All the other superheroes never really mattered to me as much as him. Not really sure why…
Riiiight? It’s similar to the 80th anniversary collection for Superman and Batman, and together they’re soooo beautiful 😍
Hahahah yep, it’s one of their more poetic names that I too loooove! 😂
And yes, multiple Flashs out there, and no, the suit is not where their powers come from. You’ll have to read/watch about them to find out how they get their powers. 😉
I love these anniversary compilations DC have been putting out, the Superman and Batman 80 Years of Action/Detective were a great, far ranging dive into the history of those characters and I certainly plan to pick up this Flash volume soon (by so many writers and so many artists haha). Great to hear your thoughts Lashaan and that you enjoy embracing both the old and the new…an awful lot of readers are put off by older comics which are quite different but no less creative or significant.
These collections are indeed fantastic! They do a wonderful job in giving us a chance to see the significance of a hero for every generation and to see how they were created in the first place. It does usually contain less of the modern age comics but I guess it’s also a question of not giving fans too much content that they could totally go buy for themselves too hahah

It’s hard to not like him too. He’s an icon and the first superhero you think of when you want to talk about someone who runs fast!
