About the series
Launching in the wake of DC's New 52, this 2012–2017 Flash series redefined the Scarlet Speedster for a new era. With a visually kinetic run co-plotted and drawn by Francis Manapul alongside writer Brian Buccellato, the book emphasized Barry Allen’s deep connection to the Speed Force and his role as a scientific detective. Later, Joshua Williamson and artists like Brett Booth and Carmine Di Giandomenico expanded the mythos, introducing major threats that reshaped the Flash's rogues gallery and family. It remains a defining modern take on the character, blending high-speed heroics with heartfelt character work.
