I don’t delight in the fact that 2023’s The Flash was a complete failure. As a comic book fan, I wanted it to succeed. The Flash was supposed to debut in March 2018 and was in development Hell long before that. It was rewritten and revised too many times for it to succeed. (Ezra Miller is a criminal who doesn’t deserve grace. No further comment.) The Flash was supposed to reset the Snyderverse and introduce a new era of DC films. Instead, it flopped, and now we are waiting for the polarizing DCU Gunnverse to truly take off. It’s a shame because the original plot for The Flash was based on a 2011 comic book event called Flashpoint.
If you were disappointed in The Flash, I highly recommend that you read Flashpoint. Flashpoint #1 is also a good collectibles market investment.
