Can this new character change everything for Barry Allen in ‘The Flash’ #75

The continued development of the many Forces is at work in this finale.

Spoilers ahead. You’ve been warned. For more read the review.

Josh Williamson and Howard Porter’s “Year One” story arc in The Flash has been exciting and enlightening. To see Barry still wet behind the ears and excited about the fact that he can run on water is exhilarating and in today’s issue, his fight with the Turtle comes to a close. Surprisingly it is what comes after the fight which is most revelatory for Barry. After beating the Turtle and defying all odds to defeat the Still Force…

Unfortunately, Williamson doesn’t give the reader any answers right now, but there’s a promise for more to come. An explanation of how Barry’s role plays into the forces is a huge deal and most likely will either play out in Year of the Villain, or right after. That said, Josh Williamson and Scott Kollins give us a hint at what is to come.

That’s a lot of teases! Whatever happens, I’m excited to see how Williamson closes out this war of the Forces.

That’s only a portion of the story though and I highly recommend you read the whole thing today!
