FLASH #233Written by Mark Waid
Art by Freddie Williams II & Doug Braithwaite
Waid was the definitive Flash writer for many years back in the early 90s. I stress the word 'was'. His current run kicked off with the fairly good All-Flash special. The actual Flash series, since he has taken over, has been less than stellar. This moisture abosrbing alien race is far from compelling and most of these first issues focus more on his kids and their powers than on Flash, himself.
Where's the follow up on the Bart's death? Where's the reactions to his 'back from the grave'? Where's the Flash in this Flash title? Hopefully Waid can turn things around now that this initial alien threat has been dealt with, but with the promise of their return at the end of this issue, I'm not sure if I'll be sticking around on this book.
Verdict - Avoid It
