Flashpoint Begins Today

DC's latest massive summer cross-over storyline encompassing 16 tie-in mini series and four one shot issues start today.

Written by Geoff Johns and penciled by Andy Kubert, the subject of Flashpoint has been surrounded in mystery, with not much known other than it revolves around The Flash (Barry Allen), who seems to be aware of very significant differences between the regular timeline and the altered one he awakes in, including Cyborg's place as the quintessential hero, Superman's apparent detention by the government, and Batman "spending his days running Wayne Casinos." Consisting of a limited five issue run, the series will also crossover with time-travel comic Booster Gold. That's a lot of comics.

Also out today is Batman: Arkham City #1, the prequel to this summers sure hit game, Arkham City. Check it out!
