BONUS REVIEW by PASTOR SAM


As one who has read every issue with the words "Blackest" or "Night" on the cover, I feel compelled to warn the reader that you make experience feelings of vertigo or disorientation after finishing "Blackest Night: Flash". While an excellent issue that incorporates everyones favorites from the Flash Family, it is probably the least accessible of any of the Blackest Night Tie-Ins for the casual reader. In fact, you may want to keep wikipedia up on your computer to try and figure out who's who and when's when. Concerning the time travel, my biggest issue is with John's not seizing the opportunity to more intentionally weave this together with "Flash: Rebirth", an otherwise great story in and of itself (see how I just worked two reveiws into one there?) It may be rather confusing in places when one realizes that Reverse Flash is a Black Lantern and yet he's still alive in Rebirth. Maybe Reverse Flash reversed the rotation of the earth by running around it really fast and thats why he's still alive - who knows. Wrinkle in Time issues aside, still a solid Blackest Night contribution.

I give it 7 out of 10 Grahams
