Even the Fastest Man Alive can’t outrun all the danger of the War for Earth-3. Enlisted by his former teammates on the Teen Titans, Wally West helped bring the Titans to Earth-3 but will any of them make it home? Chased by Earth-3’s Johnny Quick, the Scarlet Speedster quickly finds himself running out of options.

Looks like Linda Park, Wally West’s wife and the mother of their kids, seems to now have speed powers?!

Over at Iron Heights Penitentiary the Warden Gregory Wolfe has a mission for the inmate Blacksmith, but is he starting his own Suicide Squad?

Looks like the Crime Syndicate’s Johnny Quick has travelled to the Flash Museum for Amanda Waller…

…looking for the Cosmic Treadmill.

For some reason, the Mirror Master enters the battle siding with Wally West, but…

…they still ending fighting too.

We then have a quick flashback on Earth 3 where Amanda Waller sets Quick on his mission…

…then we head back to the present…

…where it appears the Cosmic Treadmill has been taken, Mirror Master knows more than he’s saying and the Flash is tired.

The Pulse:

A confusing plot, but cool seeing evil Flash vs. good Flash. The Iron Heights and Linda Park subplots are compelling with the art being pretty good. 7 out of 10.
