The Flash: Year One (2024 Edition) (The Flash (2016-))

Joshua Williams run on the Flash is up there with Mark Waid's and Geoff Johns. He has introduced new villains, made interesting choices with past Flash foes and generally has had a very interesting and enjoyable run.His artistic partners have been apt and have delivered strong visuals to go along with the writing/plots for his run.This arc I found very entertaining. Geoff Johns "origin" being expanded upon with great additional nuances made for a very entertaining story even though I was very familiar with the basic premises.

A great read! Definitely a must read for any Flash fan.

Such an amazing story displayed by breathtaking art.

The art was just okay. The interaction between Iris and Barry was very nicely expanded upon and it was great to see. I could've done without Wallace, but it was good to see Wally. The turtle was different, but ultimately, I didn't care for him.

Exactly what we wanted

Amazing book.

"The Flash: Year One" starts with a sonic boom and doesn’t lets up til the finish line. It doesn’t dive so deep as to alienate newer readers but goes deep enough to uncover significant connections to the Flash's world including the multiverse, creation of the speed force as well as the existence of other Speedsters.I much preferred this Year One story to the recent Superman rendition. As would make sense to be the case with The Flash stories, the pacing is magnetic, the reinvention of the Golden Age rogue "Turtle" was the perfect motif for an introduction into the world of the Fastest Man Alive.The art is fantastic, Howard Porter seems to have mastered his modern comic book style. For me this is the definitive origin story of the Scarlet Speedster. I wasn't alive during DC's Silver Age, and unlike other higher tier heroes, the Flash has only recently (since Rebirth) been getting quality focus. These characters have existed for so long that these modernized retellings have really become essential to the future of DC fandom.

I wasn’t expecting this to look so nice but graphics are exceptional

Bien empacado y a tiempo cumple con las espectativas

Livro importante para saber mais sobre a origem e ano um do Flash! Williamson no seu melhor e acompanhado por excelentes desenhadores.

É uma história legal sobre os primeiros meses do Barry como Flash na continuidade pós Ponto de Ignição.Diferente de outras histórias Ano Um que são bem pés no chão, Williamson entrega uma narrativa onde as coisas já descambam pra viagem temporal e linhas do tempo futuras. Apesar disso, o roteiro é amarrado direitinho entregando algo divertido. É a melhor coisa que o Williamson fez desde que escreveu o volume 8. Ano Um acaba sendo um respiro de decência numa fase do personagem que anda bastante arrastada e com ideias que - apesar de serem boas no papel - são executadas de maneiras MUITO fracas

Fantastic. A new taken on to the origin story of flash. I just stepped in into DC comics and I didn't think my first pick could be that good. The art the story, this is another level. The packaging was great and I am feeling that I got the hardcover.
