Greetings Farmhands. It’s cold up here in the North and we’re digging out from a big snow storm, so I thought I’d send out some Flash Facts.
ABSOLUTE FLASH launches MARCH 19 and I have been getting a lot of questions about the series. So a few of the more frequently asked ones…
IS ABSOLUTE FLASH A LIMTED SERIES OR AN ONGOING?
Absolute Flash is very much an ongoing series. I’m plotting issues 12-24 now.
WILL ALL THE ABSOLUTE BOOKS EVENTUALLY CONNECT?
Yes. Scott, Kelly, Jason, Deniz, Al and myself meet every other week virtually to plan out the larger Absolute Universe. We are thinking far ahead and there is a plan in place for these characters to eventually connect. We don’t want to rush anything and we want to make these eventual meeting matter.
I will say that the first seeds of a bigger connection between titles happens at the end of Absolute Flash #1 and that leads into the Free Comic Book Day story that I wrote where we see all the Absolute characters between the same cover for the first time.
IS HE KID FLASH or IS HE THE FLASH?
Wally is THE FLASH. There is no Kid Flash in this universe. There are no other Flashes before Wally. He is a teenager, but he is very much THE FLASH.
WHAT ABOUT BARRY ALLEN and JAY GARRICK
Barry is in issue #1. Can’t say more yet. And Jay…wait and see.
