There are over 70 Flashpoint tie-in comics, but we're just covering the main story arc, with occasional mentions of the tie ins. Let's dig in! Get ready for a cliffhanger! The entire Flashpoint arc is available on  DC Universe . Starting with "Flashpoint #1", we are dropped into an Earth where things aren't quite what we expect.

Episode 60: The Road to Flashpoint (2011)

In today's episode we speed through 5 issues of The Flash/Reverse Flash that set up the next story arc we'll be covering on the show, " Flashpoint ".  Flashpoint is an intense arc in the DC Universe that shakes up everything. But before we feel comfortable dropping you in on that, we want to give you a little more of a setup. In this episode we walk through the last issues of Flash before Flashpoint occurs, which also has a nice entry on the backstory of one of his constant enemies, The Reverse Flash.  Once you're done listening to this episode, we strongly encourage. you to go read some of " Flashpoint " yourself, so you won't get the events spoiled for you with next week's episode when we dive in!

I hadn't yet had a chance to read the Flashpoint comics we were going to cover, so instead of making our loyal listeners wait another week to hear our "beautiful" voices, we opted to do a freestyle episode. (Disclaimer, this episode is only available in audio form)  In this episode we talk about what we've been reading like always, but then we talk Spider-man movie news, a little Wandavision, A little about the Reverse Flash, My neighbors car that sounds like a spaceship every time it turns on, a surprise unboxing from Alex (You'll never guess what he got), and we close out the episode talking about our "Desert Island Superhero Picks"  What are your Desert Island Superhero Picks ? You get to pick one thing in each category.          1 run of Comic Books (That you could find assembled in...
