DC Comics has named the Ultimate DC Villain, and it's not Lex Luthor, the Joker, or Darkseid. According to the results of a bracket-style tournament held by DC Universe, Reverse-Flash is the greatest DC villain of all. The Meta Madhouse: Tournament of Terror kicked off at C2E2 in February, back when people were still allowed […]

Imagine your best married couple friends. You're at their home and then suddenly you're there in the middle of the worst fight you've ever seen them have. You can't take sides because they're both right. But you're just stuck watching them yell at each other, awkwardly, almost voyeuristically watching their most intimate argument. That's what […]
Another fantastic episode of The Flash this week as they once again focus on the core West-Allen family as the center of the show.

Today we're going to look at the bad guys from the big superhero / comic book series this season. Part of the genre is that each season should have a big bad — the overall villain that drives that season's narrative. The Flash has had some very interesting big baddies over the four seasons with […]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Finally, I get to talk about the comic of my absolute favorite DC superhero: Barry Allen, AKA the Flash, the Fastest Man Alive. I mean, I've gotten to talk about both Wallys, Barry in Green Arrow issues, and I even did an editorial praising a small detail that made a huge difference in […]
As tired as most fans of The Flash television series are of having season after season big bad be a speedster, I have to ask the question: Do we really want a world where there is no Reverse-Flash or Zoom? There is just something about that yellow suit as it races through the city followed […]

These things are pretty spiffy! Looks like the wave will be made up of Catwoman, Supergirl, and Damian Wayne Robin. Wave 7 of […]
Tom Cavanagh has been the backbone of the Flash since the series began. He's now played so many different versions of Harrison Wells that it's almost hard to remember back to the first version that was actually Eobard Thawne. The actor has also moved into the director's chair, helming the last two episodes. Recently, following […]

I suspect both of them […]
In a scene that was deleted from last week's The Flash, Barry Allen and Caitlin Snow talk about how things have changed since finding out that Harrison Wells is the Reverse-Flash. But more importantly we finally see how the metahumans kept prisoner in particle accelerator are fed. It's not that efficient or healthy and can […]
