Our first speedster story, “Terminal Velocity” by Mark Waid kicks off the new Flash series. As Kobra sets a plan into motion to use Keystone City to power his minions across the globe, Wally West comes home from a vision of the future — a vision of his own death. We talk about all the silly, stupid secrets and the great burdens and joys of carrying the mantle. Plus, Impulse is a strong character to love or to hate, but he’s hard to ignore.

Our “DC Let Downs” series concludes with one of the most lauded comics of all time, “Final Crisis” by Grant Morrison. This 7-issue comic is the end play of the incredibly long build-up that spanned multiple DCU-wide events. We talk about all the narrative problems, the character problems, and the WTF problems because, really, none of the good ideas from this comic had any room to shine through a cloud of anti-life haze.

Our DC Let Down arc starts off with the big daddy of controversial comics: “Identity Crisis.” Written by Brad Meltzer with art by Rags Morales and Michael Bair, this comic kicks you until you fall to the ground crying, then kicks you some more. We talk about the depressing, violent, sexualized themes in this comic along with their repercussions on the super hero genre.
