It sets the stage for the character's role in the DC Universe following the events of Final Crisis, exploring Barry's resurrection and the impact on his family and fellow speedsters.
In "Lightning Strikes Twice," Geoff Johns and Ethan Van Sciver deliver a pivotal moment in The Flash's legacy, as Professor Zoom confronts Barry Allen with the devastating truth behind his past. When Jai's powers spiral out of control, Irey steps in—and in a shocking turn, absorbs her brother's abilities, choosing to carry on the mantle as Impulse. The story unfolds with emotional weight and kinetic energy, all rendered in Van Sciver’s dynamic art and Brian Miller’s vivid colors, making this a standout issue in the Rebirth era.
