Spoilers, Top Story

DC Comics Universe The Flash #88 Spoilers and Review follows.

Leading Into The Flash #750 and The Flash Age…

…Comes The Debut and Origin Of Paradox!

A Threat To Time and Multiverse / Metaverse?!

We learn of the origins of the villain Paradox…

…whose lab appears to have a similar lightening bolt to one that gave the Flash his powers.

This is complicated by the recent Flash Year One that hanged history…

…making Paradox wink out of existence…

…with three other people transported elsewhere.

Looks like they’re in a pocket outside the multiverse immune to changes.

Paradox builds the classic Crisis tuning fork to harness the powers of the multiverse and he admits to his three compatriots that it wasn’t the Flash that trapped them, but they were too close to Paradox when his powers manifested.

Looks like the tuning fork fried the three!

Paradox continues to monitor his family and decides its time to visit them through a portal in his lab…

…but they’re repulsed!

He then travels to the future…

…where more of his powers manifest/

He’s confronted by the hero Reverse-Flash and the Rogues of the future, heroes; before we see any action between them…

…we pivot elsewhere to see that Godspeed is…

…an ally of this new Paradox!

Next up is the Flash #750, all its variant covers including a cool one from Boss Logic, out on March 4, 2020.

The Pulse:

A pretty compelling issue, even with minimal Barry Allen the Flash in it, with cool art. An entertaining read. 8 out of 10.
