ABOUT THE EPISODE

Comic Watch Content Manager Chad Burdette joins Sean to review the 5-issue series Flashpoint by DC Comics. It was released in 2011 and was written by Geoff Johns, penciled by Andy Kubert, inked by Sandra Hope, colored by Alex Sinclair, and lettered by Nick J. Napolitano.

Flashpoint tells the story of Barry Allen, The Flash, finding himself in a new universe where his mom is still alive, he is no longer married to Iris West, the superheroes are all different, and the world is about the end thanks to a war between the Amazonians and the Atlanteans.
