Solicitations for upcoming issues of The Flash reveal that "The Flash Family retreats, mourning the loss of their family members" in March. That's for the end of the One-Minute War storyline beginning this week with The Flash #780, out tomorrow from DC Comics, in which " an entire armada of conquering speedster aliens shows up on Earth's doorstep? The most intense battle the Earth has ever waged in the span of 60 seconds begins!" But wars have casualties. Spoilers ahead.

Because the alien invasion, The Fraction, land with certain impact and quite the size, just the kind of object one might need to alter the space-time continuum. As for those family members?

You know it doesn;t count as a death in a comic book unless someone does this, right?

Iris West, wife of Barry Allen, aunt of Wally West, and grandmother of Bart Allen. Played by Paula Marshall in the 1990 Flash series, Candice Patton in the 2014 Flash series and Kiersey Clemons in the Justice League and The Flash movies…

If only the Flash could turn those seconds back. Oh wait, he's the Flash, engaged in a war against the seconds, seems like the perfect time. The Flash #790 by Jeremy Adams and Roger Cruz is published tomorrow from DC Comics.
