The Flash by Mark Waid — Book Four (featuring “Terminal Velocity”)

  • Summary

  • It’s another big everything-changes-forever epic as Mark Waid hits “Terminal Velocity.” The discovery of the Speed Force as the source of superspeed in the DC Universe is transforming Wally West emotionally and physically, and his future with Linda Park is at stake. True love conquers all (sorry for the spoiler), but they won’t necessarily live happily ever as they have to pick up the pieces after the fairytale ending. We’ll discuss Wally’s often-frustrating tendency to keep his loved ones in the dark and debate whether it matters that the villain of the piece is a bit generic. Because comic fans need to rank things, we’ll also weigh in on whether “Terminal Velocity” or “The Return of Barry Allen” is the highlight of the run. All this plus Mirror Master and some kind of Lovecraftian monster, too!


    Discussed in this episode: Flash #0 and 95-105, plus Flash Annual #8 (1996).
