Wonderful
Well this story took place in The Flash issues 108 to 111 and Impulse issues 10 and 11 and have been collected here. The story is about Savitar who is in his own mind the God of speed, and when he finds out others are using the speed from the speed force and so he cuts them off...All but wally west The Flash and thats when all hell breaks loose. This story has it all, lots of speedsters like the first flash and others and you have "Speed Ninjas" who work with Savitar so all in all you get a good story with lots of the "Flash family" in it. Also you have the death of a few speedsters as well so if your a flash fan you will not want to miss the story about that.
My one problem with the book is that it has a cliffhanger ending! trades should never leave the ending open like that because you buy a trade for the complete story not cliffhangers. but DC comics have published the second book "Race againist time" so you might want ot pick it up at the same time if you want the whole story.
What if the Flash were evil?...
That's the question this storyline seeks to answer. In The Return of Barry Allen, Wally had to fight someone who sought to replace his mentor. Now he has to battle Savitar, an enemy just as fast as the Flash, but who has studied the origin of their power for years. He can do everything the Flash can do, and more-- he can lend speed to others, he can accelerate and decelerate objects, he can metabolize his wounds and heal instantly. He's ruthless in his quest to embrace the Speed Force, and will do anything to accomplish this-- including destroy everything and everyone Wally holds dear...
Termial Velocity Was only the begining
Amazing. For you Flash fans out there, this is a must have. What began with the onderful story line of Terminal Velocity is continued and expanded upon here. The speed Force is being stolen from speedsters everywhere and only Wally can stop the man responsible. Everybodys here; Max Mercury, Impulse, Jay Garrick, Jessie and Johnny Quick. For those of you who loved Termial Velocity, this is in every way a second chapter in the growth of Wally and the revealing of "The Speed Force"
