With The Flash releasing in theatres this week, we thought we'd get ahead of the game and cover the source material/inspiration for many of the events taking place in this movie..
Join the crew as we cover the 5-issue comic book run, Flash: Flashpoint by Geoff Johns!

We open the episode up with the latest talk and rumors regarding who may be playing what Batman villain in the upcoming DCU, with the likes of Bill Skarsgard and other being mentioned.

Then we dive into this run, issue by issue, as we talk about what we liked, what stood out, and what we could possibly end up seeing on the big screen in The Flash. We then wrap up the coverage with talk about the New 52, and what the state of DC Comics was after this comic run that acted as a reset button. (Since this movie will be acting of somewhat of a reset button itself..)

All this and MORE! Enjoy!
