I never read The Flash after they added all that “Speed Force” nonsense. Seems to me it overcomplicates a guy who runs really fast.
Augustyn brings it up a little–in addition to giving Wally a nice, contrived case of amnesia. As it turns out, that amnesia has no real effect on the story. It’s not like, lost in an unknown world, it makes an difference. So that aspect of the story is a fail.
Another fail is that art. Mike Bowden looks like a cross between Sam Kieth and Joe Madureira. He can’t bring the speed to the story, but he also can’t make Wally look the same from page to page.
Augustyn further hampers the narrative by giving it a tie-in. To fully understand the finish, the reader has to buy a couple trade paperbacks. Instead, he could have just done a stand-alone tale.
Big yawn.
