Review: DC K.O.: The Flash trade paperback (DC Comics)

DC K.O.: The Flash

DC K.O.: The Flash is one of those event tie-in books where the connections are all one-sided. There’s nothing in this book that actually affects or intersects DC K.O. directly (aside from the All Fight Month issue, which also appears in the DC K.O. All Fight collection). Not that there’s not precedent for such thing, not that that’s not the veritable bread and butter of regular series comics-event tie-ins, but this is definitely one of those.

Thus the main draw might be longtime Flash scribe Mark Waid writing Wally West again. At the outset of reading this, I was inclined to say that, if I’ve been back and forth on Waid’s work since he returned to DC, this volume shows he hasn’t lost a step at least when it comes to writing Flash Wally West.
