He's racing through time to fix shit. Only this time he's a bit unhinged. Something happened when Reverse Flash Daniel West plowed through the timeline a while back. In our time, Barry is noticing that he is still don't understand this totally losing time when he starts speeding from one place to another. But wouldn't he just sort of make up the time he's losing, since he's gong faster than normal, you ask? Barry is losing time! So the entire volume is filled with our Barry here in the present, plus future Barry going steadily backward in time. Our Barry is still trying to deal with the aftermath of the Crime Syndicate thing, his relationship with not Iris Patty, and a new version of Wally. Meanwhile, future Flash is making stops all along the timeline, to fix all the things he couldn't the first time around. Ok, in my effort not to spoil everything, I can only say that 'characters' die, get saved, get powers, go back in time, and die Or do they? Are they still alive in this this timeline, but with a changed future? Will they still get powers, or was that a one-time thing caused by future Flash? Is the timeline safe? Did anything really change? And the soap opera goes on In the end, I can't say it was a bad story. Great pacing, lovely art, and characters that I really like. It's just the fucking time-travel that rakes my nerves. For the love of God Get this review and more at View all 37 comments.

Well, they have a new team of writes and this is a whole different kind of story from what they were telling. I guess I'm cranky, but I wish they connected more dots so you could understand more of what's going on in this story. It sure is high energy. So, there is Flash and there is 20 years from now Future flash who is going back through time fixing the past mistakes in order to heal the Speed force which is broken. I'm not buying into how this thing got broken. It's all silly. If some Well, they have a new team of writes and this is a whole different kind of story from what they were telling. If something else can use the speed force, then how is that going to break it. Future flash has many upgrades and he's stronger, faster and he learned some skills. It was still entertaining, but I wish it could have been better at the same time. The whole Barry losing time didn't make much sense to me either. I'm not a fan of time travel in stories, especially as much as the Flash uses it. It's almost like that's all they use anymore. Can't we have a flash story with no time travel. It's getting old. I hope this will get better. I have enjoyed the 1st 5 volumes of this run. I'm going to hope the 6th was just a story dip and that it will get better from here. View all 12 comments. Jun 23, Sam Quixote rated it did not like it. The Speed Force has broken. Also, Barry and Wally go to a ball game. This is one steaming mess. I remember just a few years ago when Robert Venditti produced amazing work over at Valiant. Read those first four volumes of XO Manowar to see Venditti producing first class comics. I should stop focusing just on Venditti as Van Jensen was the co-writer on this disaster. I could not care less about Barry cheering Wally up. Present Flash also has the most half-assed murder mystery subplot ever. It could not be more forgettable or poorly set up and is just there to give him something to do while waiting for Future Flash to show up. His goal of fixing the Speed Force how did he figure that out again? What do people see in Flash? But nope, this one made me actively dislike the character even more instead. Do good Flash comics exist or, as I suspect, does he only work as part of an ensemble? The Flash, Volume 6: Out of Time is thinly plotted, horribly overwritten superhero garbage. View all 7 comments. Well that was a disappointing reread. Robert Venditti tries to do something new, but he fails miserably. He has the Messiah complex of needing to fix everything and save everyone, and he's breaking and destroying himself in the process. While I appreciate Venditti taking a darker emotional tone, it can feel shallow and pandering, like he's forcing a grim-dark perspective on an upbeat character. And Barry isn't pure sunshine, believe Well that was a disappointing reread. And Barry isn't pure sunshine, believe me. He has a dark origin story and his life contains some very dark moments, particularly if you've read Crisis and Flashpoint. But with all that said, there's a pall cast over this book that just doesn't work for me or the character. Because Flash isn't and has never been grim-dark. Future Flash is the worst, most uncharacteristic Barry Allen I've ever seen. He's a suicidal killer. That alone tells me that Venditti doesn't understand this character at all. And Present Flash isn't himself either. He's always been late and scatter-brained. But here he's pessimistic, neglectful, and downright one dimensional, stupidly running from one crisis to the next and spouting the standard hero platitudes. That's not Flash. That's not Barry Allen. Like any Flash comic this involves time travel and fixing mistakes. But here it's totally contrived. Twenty years into the future another disaster has destroyed Central City and tragedy has befallen the West Family. The big reveal, which takes over pages, is a cop out and stupid retcon. When Future Flash isn't destroying my faith in DC, the meat of the book deals with Present Barry investigating cold cases. The big mystery is a case of murder and stolen Rogues weaponry. But I just didn't care. It was a droll, vague plot that filled pages. And the whodunnit reveal? Venditti can't write Flash and I'm finished with this series. Present, Past, or Future Flash, they're all uncharacteristic. The dialog is forced. And while pretty, the artwork has that homogenous "in house" feel. DC should hate themselves for ever letting Manapul off this project. View 2 comments. Sep 08, Chad rated it it was ok. All I can really say about this book is "Meh". It's OK in that new 52 way, but it doesn't have that spark of other great Flash runs I've been spoiled by. I'm also not a fan of Brett Booth's art. Everyone has toothpick necks and every costume is highlighted in neon. All of his costume designs look like they stepped out of Tron.

Another Dull New52 flash book. I know people are hard on Joshua for his rebirth run but his entire run is much better than almost anything from the New 52 when it comes to flash. This is just Flash, once again, trying to "fix" his past mistakes. INstead of getting new inseight into Barry and relating to him we are thrown into Future Flash going back to verious moments in his life and "fixing" them as he sees fit. In doing so it alters the future but eventually the future Barry goes back far enou Another Dull New52 flash book. In doing so it alters the future but eventually the future Barry goes back far enough to take care of present day flash by sending him It's pretty awful for the most part. Venditti is a solid writer but this is one of his weaker works. The art is good enough but nothing very flashy about it no pun intended The ending is beyond fucking stupid and the reasons the future flash goes back is so overdone I'm sick and tired of it at this point. Overall a 2 out of 5 at best. But I'm not having it today so a 1.
