It’s a big year for DC’s The Flash. The Scarlet Speedster’s first ever big screen movie comes to UK cinemas on June 15. But before that the Justice Leaguer will celebrate a huge milestone with the release of the 800th issue of the original The Flash title. Today, DC has dropped a brand new preview of the landmark issue which features an all-star creative team.
Firstly, lets take a look at the cover art for issue #800:
The book includes “Don’t Come to Central City” by Jeremy Adams, Fernando Pasarin, Oclair Albert, and Matt Herms. In the short, villains swap stories over a poker game about what makes committing crime in the Flash’s town so difficult.
“The Max In The Mirror” by Mark Waid, Todd Nauck, and Matt Herms – This flashback tale set during Mark Waid’s IMPULSE run tells an untold story of The Flash & Max Mercury trapped by Mirror Master, and only Impulse can free the speedsters!
“Flash Family” by Joshua Williamson, Carmine Di Giandomenico, and Ivan Plascencia – Barry Allen uses the Cosmic Treadmill to take Iris on a very special trip.
“Blitz Back” by Geoff Johns, Scott Kolins, and Luis Guerrero – Hunter Zolomon has been trapped in the Speed Force, and thinks he’s found a way out.
“Between Love and You” by Simon Spurrier, Mike Deodato, Jr., and Trish Mulvihill – While heading to Date Night with Linda, Wally West encounters a massively powered up Mirror Master, just as the Scarlet Speedster’s powers seem to be glitching.
The Flash joins Dawn of DC in September! Launching with The Flash #1, the award-winning new creative team of Simon Spurrier (Coda, Damn Them All) and Mike Deodato Jr. (Avengers) will chronicle the adventures of the Fastest Man Alive. Wally West has never been quicker, more fulfilled, more heroic. His loving family is around him. And yet something is off. Very off. His evolving understanding of his powers has opened Wally to new avenues of sci-fi adventure, and attuned his senses to strange new ideas. Something whispers from the dark vibrations beyond the Speed Force, and as Wally experiments with creative new approaches to his powers he encounters new realms, mysterious allies and mind-shattering terrors.
