The Flash Vol. IV

review 1: Volume two of the New 52 Flash series gives us an intro to some of the new incarnations of old Flash baddies. Grodd is here, as well as some in depth looks at some members of Flash's old rogue's gallery (in this case, actually called The Rogues, I think). This volume has the same breathtaking artwork as the first did. There's some amazing work here put forth in the way of art by Francis Manapul & Brian Buccellato. The story feels like it's merely walking in place, though, only giving us details that we need to move forward, not giving us any really dynamic action. Origins, looks at individual members of Flash's enemies, things such as this... Not a total drag to read, but not super exciting, either. It's not bad enough that I'll abandon the series, though. It still is pret... morety good. I can't help feeling like we're gearing up for greatness in perhaps the next volume. Off I go to read it. I'll let you know.
review 2: It felt a slight bit more scattered and lacking in focus and flow from one issue to the next when compared to the first volume of the series. That's why I'm giving it only three stars instead of four.The art is still great and there's a lot of enjoyable stuff here in the story and characters but there were certainly moments where I was wondering if I'd missed a page, a panel, or perhaps a whole issue here and there.I'm happily going to be continuing on with the series. less
