Better question: “Will ‘Flashpoint’ save the Flash’s next series?”
You know? I just realized that I might actually be into this, because I can go in knowing that this whole event’s eventual erasure is part of the pitch. Conversely I think regular readers will be turned off for that same reason.
I think this is the sort of “event” best read when it’s done, like “House of M” and “Tangent Comics”. I’m sure it’s all going to twist and dovetail and tie-in and cross-reference, and in order to appreciate all that chicanery it’s best to just have all the material on-hand at once. I like these kind of “alternate reality” tales a _lot_, so there’s no question of “if” I’ll be reading it… Just a matter of “when” and “how”. B-)
Re Flashpoint in general:
I’m just reading it and going along with it 6 weeks in, and you know what? It’s new, light and refreshing. Thanks for the tuna salad instead of the roast beef sandwich DC Comics! See you in September for the 52 course meal…Hell, I even thought the Green Lantern movie was good…
Now nerds, start saying what an idiot you think I am and talk amongst yourselves….
