Hell Yeah
Wow. Manapul and Buccellato present the wonderful Barry Allen back in the debut issue of his own ongoing. The Flash series immediately preceding this one, was one in which Manapul's deft artistic style shined gloriously. In an increasingly "edgy" DC Universe, Barry provides good old-fashioned superheroics. Barry is an intrinsically square jawed and morally sound character somewhere between Superman and Captain America. He's constantly pushing himself to do more and be better, and lately his character has had him portrayed as a relentless detective. Combine those traits, and you don't have some boring goody two shoes, what you do have is a strong willed "good" individual often thrust in dark situations while simultaneously utilizing what has to be a daunting and mentally draining superpower. As with all good Flash stories, this issue features a mystery that speed alone will not solve. This is definitely going to be a series I follow. Pick this up, and see what we Flashfanatics have been raving about!
