DC Comics Universe and The Flash #76 Spoilers and Review follows.

Who Is The Black Flash Of Death After and…

…How Much Of This Issue Is A DC’s Year Of The Villain Tie-In?

Barry Allen is looking to win back the trust of Wally West, the current Kid Flash, who has the Flash of China along with him.

He reveals that the Flash Museum has been rebuilt, but…

…it’s really a front for the Flash’s new “Batcave” aka the Speed Lab.

Commander Cold, a future descendent of Captain Cold trapped in modern day, and Steadfast, the new Still Force bearer, are part of Team Flash.

The Flash reveals that they’re getting slower so need to be careful…

…as the Black Flash attacks!

However, it turns out he’s after…

…Steadfast and all “new forces” bearers?

Also, the book only has three pages tied to DC’s Year of the Villain which culminates with Heat Wave joining with Captain Cold on the path to create a new group of Rogues.

The Pulse:

Great art and compelling story. 8 out of 10. Still surprised how little of DC’s Year of the Villain are in titles with that cover dressing.
